"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

A barbed wire fence will last an average of 15 to 20 years, but the life expectancy can range anywhere between five and 50 years. Thicker wires last longer, as do fences made with galvanized metal. If the barbed wire fence is in a climate with harsh winters and summers, it likely won’t last more than 10 to 15 years. Failing to keep up with maintenance and repairs will also shorten the lifespan of a barbed wire fence.

The standard height for a split rail fence is three or four feet. This height requires two to three horizontal rails, making it ideal for homeowners wanting a budget-friendly split rail fence. If you’re hoping to contain agile livestock or animals like dogs, geese, or goats, you may prefer to install a six-foot tall fence with four or five rails or a four-foot-tall fence with three horizontal rails. This will help prevent animals from climbing, crawling, or jumping through the rails.

Whether you need a permit to build or install a fence depends on several factors, including your location, the fence's height, its placement in your yard, and the materials used. In many cities and highly populated areas, a permit is required, especially for fences taller than 6 feet. Conversely, rural areas may have fewer restrictions. Typically, backyard privacy fences 6 feet or shorter do not require a permit, while front yard fences often have a lower height limit, sometimes as low as 3.5 feet. There can also be exceptions for properties in mixed residential-commercial zones. It's best to check with your local building inspection or zoning department to understand the specific requirements, height restrictions, and location rules for your area. A professional fence installer can help you navigate this process and often secure the necessary permits for you, though this may extend the project timeline.

By securing posts deeply and ensuring proper drainage around foundations.

Determining the best type of fence to contain your pet can be tricky. Consult a pet fence installer and consider the following questions:

  • What size pet do you have? Some fence types, like chain link, are too short to contain large dogs.

  • Is digging an issue? Some fences, like brick or stone, help minimize digging at the fence line, where wood fences aren’t as adequate. 

  • Do you need to block your pet’s view of the neighbor's yard? Some fences, like metal iron fencing and chain link, don’t offer an obstructed view.
