"I had tried to contact several tree/landscaping professionals because we had a very tall tree fall in our back yard. Thankfully, that one caused no damage, but I had concerns that others were diseased and vulnerable as well. I had a horrible time just having someone call me back. I was able to have two people actually honor a commitment and come to the house to survey the situation. They told me that it would take them several weeks before they could get to it. I found Anthony's name and company through Home Advisor and called him. He had had a cancellation, so he came to my house in about 30 minutes. He surveyed the situation and concurred with the advice of the others, by and large: in addition to the three that had already fallen, three others were dangerous and should be removed. He wrote an estimate right there on the spot. The others told me they would email me one, but never did, even after I called to remind them. His estimate was about what others had verbally told me, but he texted the next day to offer me a discount and told me that he would have it done within a week. I agreed to go with him and am so grateful. He charged less than anyone else, he removed the trees safely without damaging anything else, including our fence, he ground the stumps, had everything removed, and even trimmed some other trees away from the house (an added, last minute request) at no charge. When it was all done, he told me that he would come this fall to plant some seed and tend to some grass that had been killed by the equipment and dead trees as they were removed. Again, at no charge. This guy reminds me of small businessmen from my youth - hardworking, independent, and mostly, honest. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat."

"Unbelievable service! We’ve used many companies and now we only go through JW! When others were slow to respond JW was quick to respond and even quicker to get out there and get the job done right and finish when they projected to be finished! Super polite, super professional and the lowest quote we received! Can’t say enough good about these guys!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Do you need a permit to build a fence if you are simply replacing an existing fence? Whether you need a permit in this case depends on your local laws and regulations. Most municipalities consider a fence replacement project as being equal to building a new fence, so you likely will need a permit. Check with your local building inspection department or zoning department to see if you need a permit. If you hire a local fence contractor, this pro can take care of obtaining all permits for you.

Since wood is weaker when installed horizontally versus vertically, a horizontal fence is prone to sagging. You can prevent this drooping from happening by building a sturdier fence. Use softwoods that are more stable, such as cedar and redwood, or denser hardwoods for your fence materials. If you can’t afford these pricey materials, use thicker two-by-six pressure-treated pine boards or shorten the span the fence boards have to cover by installing more posts.

If you hire a fence installer for the project, the time it takes to build a fence is about 20 to 30 hours. Tackling the project yourself will take around 40 to 50 hours. It can take longer if you need to obtain permits, level the ground, remove the old fence, or remove a tree.

In most cases, you will need a building permit to put up a vinyl fence, especially if the fence is sitting on or close to your property line. You can ask your local building department or  fence installation company if your fence project will require a permit. If so, you can expect it to cost between $20 and $60. Your fence installer should pull the permit for you. Building without a permit could eventually require you to pay again to remove the fence and reinstall it after getting the job approved.

Yes, installing wrought iron fencing will usually require a building permit, as do all types of fencing. Building permits for wrought iron fencing typically cost between $150 and $500, and the price will vary based on where you live and how much your local building department charges. You may also need to pay for a property survey if you’re installing wrought iron fencing on your property line. This type of survey can cost around $500, but it prevents issues with building on neighboring properties, which can be much more expensive in the long run.
