Alco's motto is “no job is too big or too small”. We want your experience to be exceptional, no matter the size of your project.

In fact, Vince had to finish college, work full time as an RA at Summit Hall to pay for his college expenses, and work full time as a residential salesman for Alco's budding Fairmont location. Ken and Mary also faced many strong challenges, many of which were helped by Betsy Nowell (Ken's wife who stepped into the company). Through a lot of hard work, help from a bank and a supplier, and the blessing of a great work force, Alco survived!

In the early ‘80s Ken and Vince ran the Fairmont office while Mary ran the original office in Vienna. In the mid ‘80s, Ken moved to head the Vienna office, while Vince ran Fairmont. Several years later, Mary moved to Florida. Vince and Ken bought each office individually from their mother. Vince was blessed to have his wife Suzie come into the business. In the beginning she ran the couples' two drycleaners, which they later sold. Since 2000 she has been a key person within Alco Fence Company. In 2009, Alco was again blessed when Robert Soltys (Bobbie's son and Vince's nephew) joined Alco.

This is the history of the relatives' struggle to build Alco but, truly everyone who knows Alco Fence will tell you that the whole company is one big family! Alco believes this is the key ingredient to what makes our company special. Many employees have retired with just one employer -Alco- while our average employee has worked for us for at least 25 years. In 2008, Vince and Suzie bought Alco Vienna from Ken and Betsy.

Alco Fence is very big into surveying our customers' satisfaction. It is important to us to know what you think. Our customer surveys show a nearly perfect 99% satisfaction rating. They also show that we offer the best quality and the best service of every fence company in the area. Some of this quality is reflected in the fact that Alco Fence carries its own line of signature PVC and ornamental fence lines. You know when you buy the Alco name you are getting top quality. Our exceptional quality and service is why you see so many red and yellow signs throughout West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Maryland.

If you are “on the fence” on whether to buy an Alco Fence, we suggest that you ask those customers with the red and yellow signs, not us, why you should buy an Alco Fence. If you ask this simple question, feel confident that we will be putting another red and yellow sign on your new Alco fence!
