"If you need any type of fence installed or repaired, I suggest you contact A & E Fence. You will not be disappointed! This company provides excellent customer service, offers competitive pricing, and they do fantastic work. I needed my vinyl fence repaired, so I filled out a request for an estimate on the A & E website. I submitted the form on a weekend. On Monday, Eli contacted me and came to my home to prepare the estimate. Within a few days, the crew from A & E Fence were at my home and completed the repairs. My fence looks amazing! A & E employees are very knowledgeable, personable, and they pay attention to detail. They completed the repairs exactly as I requested. When the crew was finished, they did a fantastic job cleaning up the work area. I am very impressed with A & E. I HIGHLY recommend A & E Fence."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

It’s usually cheaper to buy pre-made fence panels than to build your own. This surprises many people since DIY tasks so often save money. However, large stores don’t have to pay the same amount per board of wood that homeowners do, allowing them to sell pre-made panels at a more cost-effective rate. Pre-made panels also save a great deal of time, energy, and guesswork. The drawback is that they are harder to customize to the shape and slope of your yard.

Customization options include coatings, privacy slats, and incorporating colors or ornamental elements to enhance aesthetic appeal.

Corrugated metal is a strong, long-lasting material. A corrugated metal fence will typically last several decades, and the metal panels themselves may last for 40 to 60 years. The main thing you should be concerned about is the fence posts. Wood fence posts will last about five years if you purchase them untreated or about 15 years if you treat them after installation. Keep an eye on your posts and look out for insect damage and rot.

Planting greenery on a fence can help achieve more privacy, whether it’s shrubs along a picket or chain link fence or rolls of faux greenery to help create a solid-colored backdrop beyond the fence line. You can also try adding more lattice or paneling across a fence so that there are fewer places where passing eyeballs can see in.

A silt fence should be buried in a trench that is 6 to 12 inches deep. A depth of at least 6 to 8 inches is necessary to prevent water and sediment from running underneath the fence. A deeper trench, up to 12 inches, provides better anchoring during wet and windy weather. To ensure proper installation, look for a red line on the silt fence fabric, which often indicates the correct burial depth. Always adhere to local guidelines and regulations; a professional contractor will be familiar with these requirements.
