"It went very smoothly from first contact through job execution. Some neighbors had recommended them as a previous contractor never did the fencing job he had promised. In the end, they were less costly and did a fantastic job."

"Louie and his team were amazing. From initial contact to project finish, they were prompt, communicative, and efficient. He made great recommendations like gate size and matching the height of our neighbor's chain link fence so that it looked uniform. On top of it, Louie and his crew were very nice to work with. I'd hire Madison Fence again in a heartbeat."

"Gus and his crew did an incredible job. We were too intimidated to install our own patio due to some sloping and large tree roots in the space, but Maccauly Bros tackled the issues with ease. The patio looks great! They clearly paid attention to the little details and made sure that both the patio and the walkway fit into our space perfectly. Bernie and his crew were polite, responsive, and friendly. It took them awhile to get to our project, but they were easy to communicate with and, once the project was started, they were punctual and worked long hours to get the patio done in just a few days. They did an amazing job cleaning up after themselves and reseeding the lawn. We were most impressed with their willingness to go above and beyond. We had decided to install a simple garden fence around the patio to keep our dog contained, and Gus actually installed it for us, including solving several problems when he ran into patches of buried concrete. There was no charge for the extra labor, and we were really appreciative, as we designed the entire patio around the dimensions of the prefab fencing and it was so nice to just have it all DONE when the crew left. It would have taken us many hours of work, and it probably took Gus and his guys about 30 minutes. We would definitely hire Maccauly Bros again for future projects."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

When it comes to aluminum fence post depth, the posts should typically be about one-third of the length of the fence post deep into the ground. However, it's always best to check with your fencing manufacturer's recommendations to ensure you install it at the recommended depth for stability.

There are different types of pet fencing available to keep your furry family member safe:

  • Chain link fencing is an affordable but not visually appealing option.

  • Vinyl panel fencing is less easily damaged than wood. 

  • Wood fencing is customizable but requires regular maintenance. 

  • Metal iron fencing provides a sleek look but doesn’t block your pet’s view. 

  • Electric fencing eliminates the need for a traditional fence, but it could be painful to your pet. 

  • Picket fencing adds to your curb appeal but won’t contain most pets. 

  • Brick or stone fencing stops pets from digging out of the yard but costs more.

There are two things you can do to make a fence replacement easier—but keep in mind that easier doesn’t mean better. First, you can use a jack or some other type of machinery to pull the post out of the ground. If that’s not available, a digging bar can help.

Second, you can backfill the hole with gravel rather than creating a concrete footing. Keep in mind, gravel is less secure. You should only use it if you’re installing a lightweight fence or have heavier, clay soil.

The average lifespan of a wood fence is 15 to 20 years, but some can last for 40 years or more depending on several factors. The type of wood is crucial; for example, untreated pine may only last 5 to 10 years, while pressure-treated pine can last up to 20 years, and cedar's natural resistance can extend its life to 40 years. Other factors include local weather conditions, with wet and windy climates causing faster deterioration, and the quality of maintenance. Higher-end wood, metal posts, and privacy fence styles also tend to last longer.

How much does a privacy fence cost? Stockade fences cost $12 to $13 per linear foot for materials. You may find fencing that costs less, but it’s likely wholesale wood manufactured using young trees. Fencing materials made with young trees are less durable than those made with mature trees.

For installation, expect to pay $30 to $80 per hour. Installing a 150- to 200-linear-foot fence takes 20 to 35 hours, which comes to about $600 to $2,800 for labor.
