"America's Backyard replaced part of our wood fence with their white vinyl fencing and it's beautiful! Made our landscaping look great. We loved it so well we called them back out to install the rest of our yard against our neighbor's fence."

"This company was not honest with me when they came out to do an estimate. They showed us a board that would supposedly match the ones we had damaged but we later found out that they would have been too thin. We also felt rushed in the decision making process, as the man kept insisting that we had to get it done right away. When he quoted the price, he asked us if we were claiming it on of our insurance and what deductible we had and we mistakenly told him five hundred dollars, the estimate he gave us was eleven hundred dollars, obviously the price plus the deductible. We decided these men wouldn t be the right people to do our job and we were really glad we made this decision because the people we did have complete the work only charged us six hundred and eighty five dollars total."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Your wooden gate post hole should be a third to a half of the height of the post. Also, note that the diameter of the post hole should be three times the diameter of the post. You should set the post in concrete to ensure a long-lasting and durable post that will withstand the test of time.

Post depth for shadowbox fences should be at least two feet deep plus an additional foot for every foot of fence height above four feet. For a standard six-foot fence, this means a minimum depth of 3 feet. This depth helps to protect the structural integrity of your fence in the face of wind, soil movement, and seasonal ground shifts

Proper installation can make a big difference in your fence's maintenance needs. For example, wood fences that aren't installed correctly can be more likely to rot. While it's possible to DIY a fence installation, hiring a local fence company can mean much less work for you in the long run. 

A professional fence installer will make sure your fence is positioned correctly and installed in a way that ensures longevity and limited upkeep requirements.

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.

In the vast majority of cases, chain-link fences are less expensive than wood fences. Installing a wood fence costs anywhere from 20% to 30% more than a chain-link fence, or an average of $3,100, whereas a similarly sized chain-link fence will average around $2,400. Even with add-ons and additional protective finishes, a chain-link fence is very likely to cost you less than a wood fence. The only exception would be a split rail wood fence, which can cost about half the price of a chain-link fence or less.
