"It was a pleasure to have Tim, Jesse and Calvin build a fence on my property. Tim owns the company-Stranger Creek Fence. They were dedicated and helpful throughout the process. Tim designed the fence and it was built in a stair-step manner along with other angular designs. It was a beautiful design. They worked almost non-stop in the heat and I suggested to them that they stop and hydrate. I guess since they are young men they can work for hours without a break. I was impressed with their work ethic. Tim took the time to talk to me about various ideas and how to solve minor problems along the way. They first had to clear some wild overgrown bushes and then prepare the ground. Then, they had to cement in the posts in their exact positions before building the fence. They cut the wood to various sizes and placed the wood between the posts in an artistic manner. I was impressed with their go-getter attitude, their helpfulness and kindness. Also, on top of the heat and some mud, Tim and his crew had to deal with a difficult neighbor next door and they did this in a highly ethical and professional manner. Thank you, Tim, Jesse and Calvin for doing a terrific job on my new cedar fence. I am thrilled with it! Mary Lou Pagano"

"We love our new fence, it looks awesome! Rob and his crew did a great job! I would recommend him to anyone needing a fence. We have a big yard but they tore out the old fence and had the new privacy fence done in 2 days. We went with the pre stained cedar and it was even better than we expected."

"All About Fencing completed the work in less than a day. My new 6' privacy fence is exactly what I wanted. The company's customer service is top-notch, and their estimate was better than (but still on par with) other fence companies. They also were able to get to my project within a week, ensuring the safety of my dogs after the existing 4' chainlink fence began to fail. Should I ever need fencing in the future, I'll be calling All About Fencing for sure."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

The recommended height for a garden fence depends on its primary purpose. For pest control, the necessary height varies by animal. To keep out small pests like rabbits, a fence should be at least two to three feet tall. If you live in an area with deer, you will need a much taller fence, at least five feet high, to prevent them from jumping over. If the main goal is privacy, the fence should be at least seven feet tall. For purely decorative fences, the height is a matter of personal preference.

Rabbits are remarkable jumpers, capable of leaping to impressive heights. Generally, they can jump up to 2 to 3 feet vertically, thanks to their strong hind legs and muscular build. This exceptional jumping ability isn't just for fun—it helps them escape predators and reach vegetation otherwise out of their reach. Their agility and power make them one of the animal kingdom's most agile jumpers, adapting their natural talents to navigate their environment with finesse.

It’s usually cheaper to buy pre-made fence panels than to build your own. This surprises many people since DIY tasks so often save money. However, large stores don’t have to pay the same amount per board of wood that homeowners do, allowing them to sell pre-made panels at a more cost-effective rate. Pre-made panels also save a great deal of time, energy, and guesswork. The drawback is that they are harder to customize to the shape and slope of your yard.

While there’s no hard evidence to support this idea, driveway gates at least provide an additional obstacle that may deter crime. After all, a would-be burglar or trespasser would have to break into the gate and the property itself. The extra work could encourage them to move onto a house without a driveway gate.

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.
