"Everything thing worked out well. I used their recommendation for an additional contractor to remove 50' of hedges and 60 years of debris the previous owner buried. That was affordable and both were up front with all costs before starting everything. I would def use the fence company again."

"Luis was the first pro to respond to my request for quotes and was very flexible with coming out for an estimate. His quote was very reasonable and he was available to start in just a few days. Luis and his crew removed our old fence, cleared out the dead area and put in the new fence in about half a day. The team was quick, efficient, polite and did great work. I will definitely call Luis again for our next need."

"Alex and his crew did a beautiful job on our existing deck floor. They were professional and courteous. I would have given them a Five Star Rating, but my contract also included installing one window shutter which had to be special ordered. Our deck floor was completed and the final payment was paid before the window shutter arrived. I called Southside Construction several times for someone to come back to hang my window shutter and complete the contract, but to no avail."

"We had Lawn Gurus install fencing in difficult locations (dealing with a swale) close to existing fences. They did a great job. They handled some smaller issues gate closings, fixing the ability to open, close and latch gates etc. Dan & Christian are very professional, responsive, and focused on making sure the project is done correctly. They came back after the job was completed and cleaned up the work area."

"Very polite. Affordable pricing. I got a light/fan/speaker placed, sink leak fixed, clogged drain fixed, caulking in two bathrooms, shower head changed, and closet doors fixed. I would recommend more documentation of the services to be provided and the cost of materials to avoid any confusion."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Newark's climate, with its cold winters and humid summers, can affect fence durability and installation timing. Spring and early fall are optimal for installation due to milder temperatures and softer ground. Winter installations may be delayed by frozen soil, while summer heat can impact material expansion. Choosing weather-resistant materials and scheduling work during stable weather periods, as recommended by local contractors, helps ensure a longer-lasting fence.

Helpful?

In Newark, regular fence maintenance is essential due to seasonal weather shifts. Inspect your fence each spring for winter damage, clean surfaces, and reseal wood to prevent moisture intrusion. In fall, clear debris and check for loose posts before winter freeze. During snowy months, remove snow buildup and monitor for frost heave. Following Department of Land Use guidelines on maintenance can help extend your fence's lifespan and keep it compliant.

Helpful?

Common mistakes in Newark include neglecting to secure permits, misjudging property lines, and using prohibited materials like sheet metal. Overlooking homeowners association rules or Newark's zoning codes can lead to costly corrections. To avoid issues, always verify your property boundaries, consult the Department of Land Use, and address minor repairs promptly. Staying informed about local regulations and seeking guidance from city officials can prevent project delays and fines.

Helpful?

For Newark homeowners, wood, vinyl, and aluminum are popular fencing materials. Wood offers a traditional look but requires regular sealing, while vinyl is low-maintenance and resists Newark's changing weather. Aluminum is ideal for decorative or pool fencing. Avoid prohibited materials like barbed wire and sheet metal in residential areas, as specified by Newark's zoning ordinances. Always confirm material restrictions with the Department of Land Use before purchasing supplies.

Helpful?

In Newark, fencing projects generally require a permit from the Department of Land Use. You'll need to submit detailed site plans and construction drawings that comply with local setback and height regulations—typically 3 feet for front yards and up to 6.5 feet for side or rear yards. Always resolve any outstanding property violations first, and consult Newark's municipal code or the Department of Land Use for the most current requirements.
