Do I need a permit to install a fence?

• <div><p>In many cities, you will need a permit to install a fence, especially for a fence taller than 6 feet. Check with your local government office to determine whether you’ll need a permit before installing a fence, along with any height or location restrictions. Or, better yet, hire a fencing installation pro, who can help you secure the appropriate permits. </p></div>

Q: How high should a split rail fence be?

• <div><p>The standard height for a split rail fence is three or four feet. This height requires two to three horizontal rails, making it ideal for homeowners wanting a budget-friendly split rail fence. If you&rsquo;re hoping to contain agile livestock or animals like dogs, geese, or goats, you may prefer to install a six-foot tall fence with four or five rails or a four-foot-tall fence with three horizontal rails. This will help prevent animals from climbing, crawling, or jumping through the rails. </p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to buy wood fence panels or build your own?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s usually cheaper to buy pre-made fence panels than to build your own. This surprises many people since DIY tasks so often save money. However, large stores don&rsquo;t have to pay the same amount per board of wood that homeowners do, allowing them to sell pre-made panels at a more cost-effective rate. Pre-made panels also save a great deal of time, energy, and guesswork. The drawback is that they are harder to customize to the shape and slope of your yard.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain a wood fence?

• <div><p>Regular staining, sealing, and inspecting for rot or insect damage prolongs fence lifespan.</p></div>

Q: Is board on board fence more expensive?

• <div><p>A board on board fence is more expensive than other types of privacy fences. That&rsquo;s because these fences require overlapping boards, which drives up material and labor costs. On average, a board on board fence costs 30% more than an average wood fence.</p></div>

They are very good with animals. They are very expensive. My dog has cataracts on her eyes, so I asked how much it cost to remove it and I was told $1500. I thought it was outrageous.
