"I contracted with Straight Line Fencing to build 130 feet of 6ft. cedar privacy fence while I was out of state. Communication with Mickey was clear and professional. He was able to build exactly to my specification and comply with city code requirements, with the build complete in 2 days. I arrived at my home to see an absolutely beautiful new fence! The quality of the wood and the work is outstanding, and Mickey is a perfect gentleman. Thank you Straight Line Fencing!"

"The fence looks great. They were great to work with, willing to make changes to original plan, which did take a little extra time. They took a break in the middle of my job to go do another one that "needed to take priority". There were several things left incomplete such as pipe ends extending beyond a corner creating injury hazard for my horses, post wrapped with fencing not removed, again an injury hazard (one horse did get injured), some debris to clean up. There were several sections where the dog fencing was not attached to posts. Most items were relatively minor, still it added up to several hours of additional work I had to find someone else to do."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Yes, installing wrought iron fencing will usually require a building permit, as do all types of fencing. Building permits for wrought iron fencing typically cost between $150 and $500, and the price will vary based on where you live and how much your local building department charges. You may also need to pay for a property survey if you’re installing wrought iron fencing on your property line. This type of survey can cost around $500, but it prevents issues with building on neighboring properties, which can be much more expensive in the long run.

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.

The bottom strand should sit between 12 to 15 inches from the ground. If you have a problem with small critters, you can aim for 8 inches. Three-strand fences should be 16 to 19 inches apart, four-strand fences should be 10 to 12 inches apart, and five-strand fences should be 8 and 10 inches apart.

In the vast majority of cases, chain-link fences are less expensive than wood fences. Installing a wood fence costs anywhere from 20% to 30% more than a chain-link fence, or an average of $3,100, whereas a similarly sized chain-link fence will average around $2,400. Even with add-ons and additional protective finishes, a chain-link fence is very likely to cost you less than a wood fence. The only exception would be a split rail wood fence, which can cost about half the price of a chain-link fence or less.

Retaining walls offer more value to a home if they also divert water, prevent erosion, or help support a foundation. The ROI of a retaining wall is between 100% and 200%.

Both fences and walls can increase your home’s value, but you’ll spend significantly more on a wall than you would on a fence. A stone wall costs approximately $5,000, a retaining wall costs $6,100, and a fence costs $3,200 on average to put prices in perspective.
