"Optimiz3 was extremely efficient in completing the project. They built my back fence and the finished project is excellent. It should last at least 20 years. I plan on using them for other projects."

"We had a few delays because of the rain. But when stopped raining they showed up on time and started the project. They finished the gate next day. Clean up the trash and hauled it away. I would recommend EZHome to have a fence installed."

Trevor made this process very easy for me and I’m delighted with the results and the installation was top notch! Trevor has a great eye for detail, design and implementation. I’d definitely recommend Trevor for any work, and I will be reaching out to him for my next project."

"Ingacio performed the work as agreed. He takes pride in his work and has a lot of knowledge in regards to iron gates. He was very carefully with the leveling tool to ensure the gate aligned well for closure. He removed the weld on one hinge and re-welded hinge. He also welded on a wheel with adjustable spring on the bottom corner of the gate to support the weight of the gate. He also took an extra step to lubed the hinges on the gates even though it was not included with estimate. The end result job is my locks on door function well and gate doors close properly."

Fencing FAQs, answered by experts

In most cases, you will need a building permit to put up a vinyl fence, especially if the fence is sitting on or close to your property line. You can ask your local building department or  fence installation company if your fence project will require a permit. If so, you can expect it to cost between $20 and $60. Your fence installer should pull the permit for you. Building without a permit could eventually require you to pay again to remove the fence and reinstall it after getting the job approved.

Split rail fencing is a type of post and rail fencing. Other post and rail fences include corral board and post and dowel. Post and rail fencing is the term used for any type of fence with vertical posts, horizontal rails, and nothing else (specifically excluding pickets). So, technically, a split rail fence is a post and rail fence.

Many types of farm fencing can work well for your farm, but it depends on the type of animal you need to contain and the size of your property. If you want something quick and temporary, go with a metal T-post fence. If you need something that will last forever, go with a synthetic fence made of composite material or PVC. Electric and barbed wire fences are often chosen for docile livestock, like pigs and cows. 

Wood fences provide privacy, security, and aesthetic appeal for commercial properties.

Most people prefer to keep the fence level by “stepping” the fence when running a horizontal fence over a slope. Stepping involves raising each panel between the posts as the fence moves over changes in slope, giving the fence line the appearance of stair steps. While this may be the preferred method of running a horizontal fence up a slope, there’s nothing wrong with installing your fence so it follows the undulations in the ground instead.
