"These folks are amazing. Their work is top notch, they took extra time and effort to ensure everything was installed extremely well. I cannot express just how satisfied we our with their results. Not only would we hire them again, they will certainly be our initial starting point for any project like this. Their pricing was very reasonable and beat out multiple competitors. However, even if they came in a little bit more than another quote, I would certainly choose Midwest Alpha. Their quality and work ethic are worth more... I've worked with companies before that caused headaches and little corrections after the fact. These folks did it right the first time and made sure it was perfect. Seriously, do yourself a favor and use these folks. Don't risk someone else messing up your project, Alpha will do it right! Thank you Levi and your father for all the hardworking and amazing results."

"Brian removed and replaced overgrown bushes and re-landscape approach to my home. It was an extensive amount of work, but his team works swiftly and was very responsive to my needs. He also cut my lawn and did a thorough cleanup after the line was trimmed. I have hired him on several occasions for jobs that were too much work for my husband and I to do our ourselves."

"I had a fence that was leaning on my neighbors yard that needed to be repaired. Arnold's Construction came out to do a free estimate to find out the post was rotted in the ground. They were so friendly, got the job done quickly and you could not tell it ever learned! I had them come back another day to replace posts around my garden, as well. I am so happy I found my go-to handyman."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

You can use soil and gravel instead of concrete when setting fence posts. However, concrete is more durable and longer lasting, so it's worth considering if you want your fence to withstand the test of time. You should especially consider concrete if you live in a region that experiences severe weather, which can damage your fence.

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.

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.

Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can help your wood fence last 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You’ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.

Yes, fence posts should be set in concrete to provide the proper support for the fence. If you notice your fence posts leaning, you’ll need to learn how to brace a fence post to fix the problem and prevent further damage from occurring. By bracing a fence post properly, you’ll provide stability and sturdiness to your fence for years to come.
