"We have a large 2 building commercial retail/office complex 3 stories tall that we have been completely renovating the exterior on. They have been replacing siding, adding trim, airless painting etc… they can pretty much do what ever you need them to do. Great work, awesome people to work with. We plan on having them back once warmer weather returns."

I've been doing handyman, construction, carpentry work for 16 years now. Over that time I've learned how to do countless different jobs and overcome various different snags and setbacks. Efficiency and dedication drive me and I will work as much as needed to meet a deadline.

"Spike's Chain Link was hired for chain link fence replacement at my residence. Ronnie Spiker gave me a prompt response and good estimate. He scheduled this job, and finished ahead of schedule and within his initial estimate. Ronnie was very patient with me, and I really appreciated that aspect of his performance."

"We are absolutely thrilled with the quality of work and character of Jack Schafer from Straight Line Fencing. He made time in his busy schedule to fit in a repair on my mother's fence- traveled extra miles to get there- and completed the job meticulously. He was professional in every way- and truly the kindest man my mother has worked with. We highly recommend Jack for your fencing needs- his work and character are exceptional!! Thank you Jack!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

There are two things you can do to make a fence replacement easier—but keep in mind that easier doesn’t mean better. First, you can use a jack or some other type of machinery to pull the post out of the ground. If that’s not available, a digging bar can help.

Second, you can backfill the hole with gravel rather than creating a concrete footing. Keep in mind, gravel is less secure. You should only use it if you’re installing a lightweight fence or have heavier, clay soil.

This depends mainly on how well the posts were installed and what type of wood was used to build the gate in the first place. Softwoods have a life expectancy of up to 15 years but can last slightly longer with regular maintenance and waterproofing treatments. By contrast, hardwoods can last up to 30 years with little care, so you may avoid costly replacements by spending a little more upfront.

Yes, installing a picket fence is a manageable DIY project for homeowners with basic tools and some patience. The process involves marking the fence line, digging post holes, setting the posts, and attaching horizontal rails and pickets. However, precision is key to ensure the fence is straight and sturdy, which can be challenging for beginners. If the fence line is long, the ground is uneven, or you’re working with more complex materials like metal or composite, hiring a pro may be a better option.

A wobbly fence can be caused by a number of things, though poor installation is the usual culprit. It’s always best to have your fence installed by a professional who can ensure the posts are placed correctly and that the chain links have the correct amount of tension.

If 20% or more of your fence is damaged, pros will often tell you that it’s a better use of your money to replace the fence entirely. Severe rotting and insect damage always call for a replacement. However, if you’re just dealing with a few loose posts or a little bit of mildew growth, you can repair the fence.
