"The fence installation was excellent. It wasnâ t what I expected. Because I see other wooden fences in the neighborhood. The fence I received from this company was superior. I highly recommend this company."

"I have been dealing with contractors all my life in NY, NJ and PA. I bought 2 properties in Hartwell, GA which I did and still doing work on both. I hired Jeff for a small project in one of my houses and after I saw the type of work he did I was amazed with the dedication, professionalism and outstanding work he did. Long story short he is currently remodeling both of my homes and every day I get more and more impressed with his work. I highly recommend Jeff/ company to everyone looking for an excellent job from A to Z and peace of mind."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

A fence post set in concrete lasts anywhere from five to over 25 years, depending on how well the concrete was applied and the fence post’s material. Untreated wood posts in concrete could last less than 10 years, but a durable, treated wood set in properly applied concrete could last a few decades. However, all fence posts will wear out eventually, so expect to need to replace your fence post every five to 15 years.

While it’s possible to remove a fence post with a truck and requires little physical effort, we don’t recommend this method. You can potentially hurt others or yourself or damage your property or vehicle attempting to take a fence post out with a truck. Instead, use a farm jack or a pole puller to remove the post.

Most people prefer to keep the fence level by “stepping” the fence when running a horizontal fence over a slope. Stepping involves raising each panel between the posts as the fence moves over changes in slope, giving the fence line the appearance of stair steps. While this may be the preferred method of running a horizontal fence up a slope, there’s nothing wrong with installing your fence so it follows the undulations in the ground instead.

If you’re part of a homeowners association (HOA), you’ll need to speak with them regarding your fence repairs prior to starting work. Sometimes, you’ll need HOA approval to start repairs and ensure that the completed project meets their standards. In other cases, direct approval might not be required to start the project. Speaking with your HOA first will help avoid any unnecessary fines and headaches.

Ideally, your concrete should set slightly above ground at an angle sloping away from the fence post. This will add extra support and allow water to run away from the wood fence post. Keeping water out will help prevent wood rot. Additionally, you can add soil on top of the concrete for a seamless finish.
