"Toby and his crew were extremely efficient at installing our new fence. Not only did they do a beautiful job, but they offered great recommendations on how best to layout our fence in accordance with our lot. The entire crew was so extremely professional and accommodating, taking extra consideration for the fact that we had dogs who were having their backyard playground intruded upon :) They were so polite and considerate. I felt very comfortable having them at my home. Toby kept my husband and I updated as the project progressed and he delivered a product over and about our expectations."

"After our chimney area developed a leak, I had a chimney specialist inspect the chimney chase cover and caps which were ok. He concluded the leak was from the roofing around the chimney and recommended Merv for this type of repair as it requires expert technique and experience to fix a leak of this nature. Merv and his crew were fantastic, arrived on time, worked hard, and made a high-quality repair. Clean-up was pristine. Merv is very easy to work with, returns calls or texts, and explains things very well. He has earned my trust! Merv (MSW Construction LLC) will definitely be my first choice for future projects and/or repairs - I highly recommend them."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Both nails and screws are common in fence construction, including on pickets. Some builders prefer to use nails when connecting the pickets to the rails and screws when connecting the rails to the posts. However, the best option usually depends on the type of wood fencing and the variety of wood you choose.

The depth of your post hole depends on your post length. If you decide on a two-rail fence, the posts are likely 6 feet long. You want your hole to be at least 1/3 of the post length. In this case, your post hole should be two feet deep.

If you opt for a three-rail fence, the posts will typically be 7 feet long, meaning your post hole should be 28 inches deep.

The best wood for fence posts are redwood, cedar, and pressure-treated pine. Wood posts made from these materials will typically lasts between 15 and 30 years, depending on the specific type you choose and your local climate. With proper care and maintenance, a fence post made of these materials can withstand most weather conditions.

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.

While most homeowners aren't required to tell their neighbors that they’re putting up a fence, it's certainly a good idea to do so. Not only is it considerate to give neighbors a heads up about construction noise, but building a fence may limit your neighbors' access to their own backyards while building is taking place.
