"Mike See arrived at the scheduled time to review the job and then submitted a proposal. Mike's professionalism and the reasonable proposal, compared to other submitted bids, convinced us to go with H&Y. The installation was done by a 1-man "crew". J. Knepp was highly skilled, efficient and speedy in completing both parts of the job. He was exacting and fully competent in all aspects of fence installation as well as being friendly with a great sense of humor. We were very impressed with the finished product!"

"I recently hired Homefree Fences to install a wooden privacy fence, and they were fantastic! Their communication was super clear, and they gave me a straightforward quote and timeline. The fence they installed is not only sturdy but also looks great. What really impressed me was their friendly and customer-focused approach. If you're looking for a new fence, Homefree is the way to go!"

"We had an excellent experience with Kanter Fence Company and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality fencing work. From the first call, Nick and Dylan were extremely professional, responsive, and easy to work with. They came out quickly to provide an estimate, took the time to walk the property with us, and explained all of our options without any pressure. Their pricing was very fair and everything was clearly outlined before the project started. What really stood out was the craftsmanship and attention to detail. The fence lines are perfectly straight, the posts are solid and secure, and the gate they built operates smoothly and feels extremely sturdy. You can tell they take pride in doing the job the right way instead of cutting corners. The finished product completely transformed our yard and looks fantastic."

"Paul and his team are second to none. Hands down the best fence builder and custom wood worker around. Not only did he build the most fantastic fence, but he also built a custom mailbox and custom closets on the interior of my house... I could not love this crew more or feel more confidence when I refer them out over and over again."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can expect your composite fencing to fade quickly during the first six months. This happens naturally because the wood oils in the fencing material, called tannins, bleed out. Because of this, it can help to get a color chart from your fence company, which should show you the color of your fence before and after it fades.

Removing fence posts that are set in concrete is something you can't do by hand. You will need an excavator, a strong post-puller, or a jackhammer. If you plan on recycling the concrete base, you may be able to cut the post out with a jackhammer and then set the new post in the existing base. However, it's usually better to remove both the fence post and concrete together. Due to the weight of concrete, you will need a hydraulic removal tool.

You can use pressure-treated wood for a horizontal fence, but you’ll need to purchase a thicker and higher-quality variety to ensure it doesn’t sag or warp after you install it. Use #2 pine grade lumber and boards and thicker dimensional lumber, such as a two-by-six. You’ll also need to use stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners, as the chemicals in the treated lumber will cause regular galvanized fasteners to rust. 

Generally, the height of your dog fence should be 3 times the distance from the ground to your dog’s shoulder. For most small breeds, a 4-foot high fence will be more than enough to keep them from jumping out. Medium-sized breeds like Golden Retrievers, Labradors, and German Shepherds will need at least a 5-6 foot fence to stay contained. Large breeds that are also excellent jumpers, such as Greyhounds, may need a 7-foot high fence. 

You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.
