Get matched with top fencing pros in Ravenna, KY

Q: How high should fence pickets be off the ground?

• <div><p>Pickets should sit at least 2 inches off the ground to encourage groundwater to flow underneath. Pickets can sit as much as 6 inches off the ground, but setting it any higher could let pets in or out of your yard unintentionally. These are not to be confused with the fence posts anchored underground with soil or concrete footing.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a stockade fence and a privacy fence?

• <div><p>A stockade fence is a common type of privacy fence. These fences consist primarily of side-by-side boards without any gaps, thus eliminating the possibility of anyone peeking into your property. Stockade-style fences also typically included pointed pickets on top for even more security. Other than these traits, stockade fences come in a wide variety of styles. </p></div>

Q: Do I have to tell my neighbor I’m putting up a fence?

• <div><p>While most homeowners aren't required to tell their neighbors that they&rsquo;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. </p><p> </p></div>

Q: What is the best inexpensive fence for a garden?

• <div><p>In terms of materials, chicken wire mesh will be the most inexpensive option to use when building your fence. The downside is that it&rsquo;s not the most attractive garden fence option. In a similar vein, you could choose a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/diy-temporary-fence-ideas.htm">DIY fence</a> made out of repurposed items, like car tires, or wooden pallets, either of which would be free to collect. </p></div>

Q: What is the average height of a fence?

• <div><p>Privacy fences in residential neighborhoods tend to stand between 6 and 8 feet tall, but local building code usually dictates the maximum height. Livestock fences that border large land plots range from 3 to 6 feet. Shorter, decorative fences, which are common in front yards, are around 3 feet tall, on average. Fence height also tends to vary by material, with wood fences usually sitting at 6 feet tall, and chain-link and wrought iron fences tending to sit at half that.</p></div>
