"Nathan & his crew authentically cares about making their customers desires come to fruition ... they stick to it, until your vision comes true. Nathan over exceeded our expectations, I had my OWN gate design in mind & Nathan surpassed my OWN vision by catapulting the overall look by simplifying it. LESS is MORE! Our gates elevated our property esthetically to the next level, we receive compliments by our neighbors, couriers & passerby s on a regular basis. :) We are soooo happy we selected Wheatley Fence Co. as this was a win, win! *Note Nathan never had a frown he showed up with a sincere smile & the passion needed to execute on a high note! When employees love their boss what does that tell you!? HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!"

"They did an excellent job understanding that we needed a front gate, pour concrete for an fenced area to cover our sanitation cans from the street. The only caveat was they left after digging fence posts the first day after worked a few hours and did not communicate they were leaving to work on another project."

"Wild Sage was hired to demolish and old retaining wall and fence on our property. They then installed an excellent and far superior replacement. The project was done extremely professionally and all details were considered. They took the time to consult with me for every decision. I felt like I was a part of the process the entire time and nothing was done without my consent. We have several other projects in the yard that we are already discussing with them. Their work is superior in every way and I would highly recommend them to friends and family. Thank you Wild Sage!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Lattice should not touch the ground, as it creates a possibility for rot and a termite infestation. It’s best to leave a gap of 3 or 4 inches at the bottom for airflow and to keep the wood dry. You can add stones, bricks, or other decorative pieces to conceal the bottom of the lattice if desired.

Since wood is weaker when installed horizontally versus vertically, a horizontal fence is prone to sagging. You can prevent this drooping from happening by building a sturdier fence. Use softwoods that are more stable, such as cedar and redwood, or denser hardwoods for your fence materials. If you can’t afford these pricey materials, use thicker two-by-six pressure-treated pine boards or shorten the span the fence boards have to cover by installing more posts.

You have several options for anchoring a temporary fence to keep it from falling down. Sandbags can be used as a standard weight, but they may blow away or fail in strong winds and inclement weather. Spikes and bolts are a cost-effective and easy-to-install alternative, but drilling can be difficult if the ground is frozen, too soft, or too hard. Another option is wind braces, which should be bolted into the ground to withstand turbulent wind; however, like spikes, they can be challenging to install in very soft or hard ground.

The cheapest farm fences are typically wire fences, which cost less to install than traditional lumber fences. Barbed wire is one of the most inexpensive options due to its simple materials, making it a good choice for low budgets. It is suitable for confining docile animals in large spaces, as it provides a visual barrier and a mild deterrent. Other options like hog wire and woven wire fences are also cost-effective because they require less lumber than a full wooden fence. These types of wire fences are strong, long-lasting, and relatively easy to repair, though they are often considered less aesthetically pleasing than wood.

Most privacy fences are easy to install if you’re going with a DIY-friendly option like a wood fence, vinyl fence, or pallet fence. Since pallet fences come in the form of pre-constructed fence panels, they’re often considered the easiest privacy fence to install. Just get your fence stakes in the ground and slide the pallets onto them before securing them with scrapboard.
