"Mr. Burgess installed vinyl PVC panel fencing for me and did a wonderful job. He is very detailed in his work and cares to communicate with the homeowner through every phase of the project. His attention to detail and precise workmanship speaks well for his excellent work ethic. I am continuing with other work projects with Mr. Burgess. His work estimates are fair and accurate which is so helpful when budget planning for projects to be done."

"We needed a few rotting boards on our deck replaced. They were professional, easy to communicate with, on time, and did an amazing job. Replaced 3 boards, sanded, and painted all in about an hour. Fast & efficient. I would use them again. Thank you!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Rust, bent panels, loose posts, and broken welds often require repair.

You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.

The ideal distance between fence posts depends on several factors, including the terrain, the purpose of the fence, and the material used. For different types of fences, here are some general guidelines:

  • Wood and Metal Fences: Posts should be spaced between 5 and 8 feet apart.

  • Vinyl Fences: Spacing can be between 6 and 8 feet.

  • Chain-Link, Mesh, or Lattice Fences: Posts can be set anywhere from 4 to 25 feet apart, with 4-10 feet being common for chain-link.

  • Wire Fences: Spacing can be up to 12 feet apart.

There are many pros and cons to vinyl and composite fencing. Both fencing types offer longer lifespans than wood fencing, with some notable advantages. Whether one is better for you will depend on a few factors. Composite is better if you prefer recycled materials, while vinyl is extremely easy to clean. 

Also, consider the disadvantages: vinyl can be more expensive, while composite fencing fades during the first six months.

How long a wood fence lasts depends on the type of wood and its style. The design of a shadow box fence makes it more durable than other fence types because the alternating pickets disperse the weight across the rails. As a result, you won’t have to worry as much about sagging or failing pickets. However, remember that the hollow design of a shadow box fence makes it more difficult to apply the sealer, which is crucial to extending its life.
