Fencing

We offer a wide variety of fencing materials including wood (cedar, pine, redwood), vinyl, aluminum, chain link, wrought iron, and composite materials. Each has its own benefits in terms of durability, maintenance, and aesthetics.

The right fence depends on your needs: privacy fences (wood, vinyl), security fences (wrought iron, chain link), decorative fences (aluminum, wrought iron), or pet containment. We'll help you consider factors like purpose, budget, maintenance, and local regulations.

Most municipalities require permits for fence installation, particularly for fences over a certain height. We handle the permit process for you, ensuring your fence meets all local zoning regulations and homeowner association requirements.

Most residential fence installations take 1-3 days depending on the size of the property, terrain, and fence material. Complex projects or those with difficult access may take longer. We'll provide a timeline during your consultation.

Vinyl and metal fences can last 20-30 years, wood fences typically last 15-20 years with proper maintenance, and chain link fences can last 15-25 years. Regular maintenance can significantly extend the life of your fence.

Vinyl and aluminum require minimal maintenance (occasional cleaning), wood requires staining or sealing every 2-3 years, wrought iron may need rust treatment and painting, and chain link might need occasional tightening and rust prevention.

Yes, we can often repair damaged sections of fencing rather than replacing the entire fence. We'll assess the condition and let you know if repair is feasible or if replacement would be more cost-effective in the long run.

Fence costs are influenced by: material type, linear footage, terrain difficulty, gate requirements, removal of old fencing, necessary permits, and any special features like decorative elements or specialized finishes.

Typically, fence posts should be set at least 2 feet deep for a 4-foot fence, with an additional 6 inches of depth for every extra foot of height. In areas with frost, posts should extend below the frost line to prevent heaving.

Yes, we offer warranties on both materials and craftsmanship. Most fencing materials come with manufacturer warranties (often 20+ years for vinyl, 10-15 years for wood), and we back our installation with a comprehensive workmanship guarantee.

A well-installed, attractive fence can increase property value by enhancing curb appeal, providing privacy, and defining property boundaries. Most homeowners recoup 50-70% of their fence investment when selling their home.

Spring and fall are ideal as the ground is typically workable but not frozen or overly wet. However, we install fences year-round, adjusting our techniques for seasonal conditions to ensure proper installation.

We have several techniques for sloping terrain including stepped fencing (following the slope with level sections), racked fencing (adjusting picket angles to follow the slope), or a combination approach based on your preference and the degree of slope.

In most cases, yes. We can typically match existing fence styles for repairs or expansions. If exact matching isn't possible, we'll find the closest alternative or suggest complementary designs that blend well with your existing fence.

It's crucial to know your exact property boundaries. We recommend having a survey done if you're unsure. Most municipalities require fences to be set back a certain distance from property lines, and we'll ensure compliance with all regulations.
