"Once they got started (there has been a lot of rain at this time which caused delays for the Company) the job was completed quickly. The fence looks great and I hope will last a long time. The only minor complaint I have is they did not smooth off the edges of the posts where they cut them with a power saw, which kind of cheapens the appearance of the finished job. To be fair to the Company; I did not tell them about this; but maybe the installers might want to look at this on future jobs. On a very positive note: No money was paid in advance of the completed job."

"We had a bit a delay because of utilities being marked and extreme heat, but better safe than sorry. The cedar fence is absolutely gorgeous! I added in a small gate only a few days before the project started. They were very accommodating and it turned out perfect. Pricing was very reasonable. I was able to get cedar pickets with Affordable Fences for less than 1 company was going to charge for traditional pine fencing. They explained their estimate in full detail. They guarantee their work. They were able to schedule and complete the work within a month of the estimate. They really took their time to communicate and answer any questions I had. I definitely would recommend Affordable Fences to anyone needing fence and deck work."

"They did a great job! Our home insurance were not easy to deal with but Brian and his team handled it well and were fantastic. We even hired them to fix our porch up to hopefully sell in a few months and it looks great! Would hire again and highly recommend!"

"I had a great experience. The business owner came out quickly for an assessment, he was friendly and respectful and worked with my budget. The fence was put in really well by his team and he came back to personally inspect the job. He did a great job and I will absolutely use him again for my next project!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

A horizontal fence is typically more expensive to build than a vertical fence, often costing between 10% and 20% more. The higher cost is due to the need for a higher grade of lumber and more posts to prevent the boards from sagging, which increases both material and labor expenses. Despite the higher price, horizontal fences tend to be more durable and offer a more distinct, modern look compared to the more common vertical picket style. However, they may not be the best option for privacy, as there can be slight gaps between the horizontal rails.

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.

Ideally, when you replace a fence post, you should also replace the concrete footing. The concrete bonds to your new post, creating a secure base. If you install a new post into old concrete, it won’t be as sturdy.

That said, it is possible. Sometimes the post will lift right out of the concrete. If not, you can use a high-lift car jack to try and lift the pole out of the footing. Put the new post into the same hole and backfill it with fast-setting concrete. Keep in mind, this won’t work well for metal posts.

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.

Silt fences are very effective when installed correctly and used in proper locations. However, there are places where they don’t work as well. This includes property with a concentrated water flow, where runoff could pool or cause a flooding hazard. You’ll also want to use caution when installing in areas susceptible to landslides. Your contractor will follow state guidelines and know when an alternate solution is more effective.
