"The whole crew that came out to build our fence went above and beyond today! Was very efficient and professional! The fence turned out great! Thank you!"
"This the second fence I have had SP Fence install. They did an excellent job on this fence just like they did on the first fence. The first fence is now 7 years old and still looks great. They did 2 maintenance visits on the first fence and both were great. If I need a third fence in the future I am definitely calling SP Fence, nice people, quality work, good price."
"My fencing project went well. Im very please with the turn out. Our house sits on the corner and it gives good curve appeal to the house. Tank you Semoore fencing for seeing my vision."
"Archers Metal Deco quoted by phone almost immediately and completed the job in less than a week. Their pricing was great, and their crew was friendly and professional. They replicated our old fence in a day and a half. Ingrid in the office was very responsive to our questions, and we were very pleased with the service and the finished product."
I got them off Angie's List and they were great! They were in my area and they had the highest rating. I talked to three fence people al off Angie's List and they were the only ones that would actually do it. One company, they advertise that they do off Angie's List but they said they don't do aluminium fencing. They came out and looked but said 'we really don't do aluminium fencing". The other one said they don't do it- over the phone. I Guess they had no time. I know North West Is a very large company but they came out and did excellent. They did some wonderful work. They are quick and neat. They did a great job.
"Overall, it went well. The cost compared favorably to other estimates. The estimate was honored to the dime. Changes we asked for as the work progressed were added at reasonable cost. The wood was as good as wood gets these days. The fence was hand-assembled. The work was good and completed in a timely fashion. Glitches that did come up were addressed. The workers corrected mistakes we pointed out to the owner. Our one problem was that when we called about some warping of the wood on the gates months later, our call was not returned. The warping resolved on its own, but it was irksome not to get that callback."
You’ll need to bury the garden fence about 1 foot underground. It’s tempting to save on materials by burying the fence just a couple of inches, but if you do so, determined pests will still be able to dig under the fence and access your plants. Burying your garden fence deep into the soil is an important step that allows you to attach a wire barrier to the fencing.
Burrowing animals (like voles, moles, rabbits, and gophers) can’t dig or chew through this wiring, meaning that you’ll be keeping your prized petunias or your robust veggie garden from being eaten.
Pallet fences come with built-in support through the fence posts you should install on each side of their vertical interior. Stand the fence upright and slide it onto the fence posts, then further support it with 2x4 wood boards that you drill across each point where two pallets connect side-by-side.
Rust, bent or broken bars, loose posts, and weakened welds are common problems that require repair to maintain security and appearance.
While picking a standard chain-link fence might be your first instinct, that metal can easily rust over time, making your space look not-so-great. Black chain-link fences are a simple and affordable way to fence in an area of your yard and are also less prone to showing rust than traditional galvanized steel chain-link fences. Plus, black chain-link fencing is a more unique option that can look very striking and elegant when installed properly.
Yes, a double fence can keep deer out of your yard by using the deer’s limited depth perception. For example, a 6-foot tall fence with another 4-foot fence a couple feet from the outer fence makes it look more difficult and unsafe for the deer to jump and land safely. You can even mimic the look of a double fence by using wire or a clothesline.
