"Overall I am very pleased with my new fence. It took a few months to get them out to walk the job and schedule, but I was told that when I called (I think Covid home improvement demand kept them busier than normal). Mark showed up as scheduled, made some good recommendations on his proposal. It was a big job and I was told it might take 1 1/2 days, but they completed the entire job in one day and left the yard spotless. The crew was hard working, polite and efficient. I will definitely use them again!"

"Michael of Dela Woodworks did a great job. He provided his bid promptly and could do the job within days. He took down a 9 yard long termite ridden fence, removed all debris and installed a new redwood fence, including applying anti-termite treatment and paint. He also made some smaller fence repairs. His price for the job seemed fair. I would hire Michael again."

"I hired Manny and his team to extend an existing chain link fence and add some barbed wire. He was reasonably priced, worked quickly and was responsive. I'd use Manny again when i need fencing."

"my purchase with this company ran very smoothly from beginning to end!! met with PAULl, person who quoted price for fence. he is an excellent rep for the company addressed all my needs! 75 ft MOCHA COLOR FENCE was put in yesterday...wow transforms the whole property!! HARRY & SAM came over to install and boy they had their work cut out for them...because there was a tree trunk that was pushing fence back a little and gap had to be covered at an angle... and the ground under fence had cement that was irregular! they did a great job...and this was not an easy installation...took the whole day! nice guys ... and worked with me as to how much space i wanted underneath fence. all in all ....excellent! very happy with results!"

"They were able to start the job a couple days after I signed and they finished the gate job without any issues. I would hire them again if I decide to do more with vinyl fencing in the future"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Do you need a permit to build a fence if you are simply replacing an existing fence? Whether you need a permit in this case depends on your local laws and regulations. Most municipalities consider a fence replacement project as being equal to building a new fence, so you likely will need a permit. Check with your local building inspection department or zoning department to see if you need a permit. If you hire a local fence contractor, this pro can take care of obtaining all permits for you.

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’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.

The price of purchasing and installing a fence around a pool is dependent on the type of fence material you choose. On average, a pool fence can cost anywhere from $1,000 to $10,000+. Chain link and mesh fences are the least expensive options, while a fully glass fence will cost the most. Having an inground or above-ground pool will also be a key factor in determining fence prices.

The type of horse fence that’s most effective in the short term depends on your budget. Plastic fencing works as a temporary fence idea for those on a tight budget but doesn’t offer as much protection. Pipe fencing can be a short-term option as well. Despite its high cost, you can install and remove it easily if you need to relocate your pasture area.

The depth of your post hole depends on your post length. If you decide on a two-rail fence, the posts are likely 6 feet long. You want your hole to be at least 1/3 of the post length. In this case, your post hole should be two feet deep.

If you opt for a three-rail fence, the posts will typically be 7 feet long, meaning your post hole should be 28 inches deep.
