Short answer: The team behind 76 FENCE West Chester in West Chester, PA comes from 76 FENCE Main Line: owner Ed Samane, General Manager Andrew Taylor, Operations Manager Mike Mercado, Project Manager Frank Markward and Operations Support Coordinator Dolly Morrison. Together they cover your estimate, scheduling, paperwork, crew coordination and the final walkthrough.

A fence project in West Chester, PA touches more people than most homeowners expect: someone to measure and quote, someone to deal with the township and the HOA, someone to line up materials and a crew, and someone to make sure the finished fence matches what you agreed to. Here is who does what.

Who are the people on the team?

Each role covers a different part of your project, and the bios below are short on purpose.

  • Ed Samane, Owner. Ed has spent decades in franchising and business leadership. He likes building things that last, whether that is a well-set fence, a sound business or a working relationship that holds up over years.
  • Andrew Taylor, General Manager. Andrew manages daily operations. He is the person most homeowners meet at their walkthrough, and customers often mention him by name in their reviews.
  • Mike Mercado, Operations Manager. Mike’s responsibility runs from the first post to the final walkthrough, so the installed fence matches the plan.
  • Frank Markward, Project Manager. Frank keeps jobs on schedule and crews coordinated, which matters when weather or a permit date moves.
  • Dolly Morrison, Operations Support Coordinator. Two decades and more in franchise development, hospitality and operations give Dolly a feel for keeping the office side of every job organized.

How does a project move through the team?

In stages, with a clear owner at each one. The exact path depends on your property, but most residential jobs look like this.

  1. Walkthrough. You book a free estimate, usually with Andrew, who walks the line with you and talks through materials, height and gates.
  2. Paperwork. We prepare the township permit and any HOA submission through our permit service, then place the PA One Call request.
  3. Scheduling. Frank lines up materials and a crew date. Our installation timeline guide explains what usually sets the pace.
  4. Install and walkthrough. Mike’s team sets the posts, hangs the panels and gates, and checks the finished fence with you.

Why does a small team matter for you?

Because the person who heard your concerns at the estimate is still reachable when the crew arrives. If your dog digs, your HOA wants a specific color, or the back corner floods every spring, that detail does not get lost between departments.
