"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."

Customers say: Quality work

"I had around 5-6 estimates on the fence that was damaged beyond repair on the front side of the house from the many storms we had on the ocean. Wendell was in the middle of those estimates and came recommended by friends in construction. About a month after they installed the fence we had that major storm with the crazy winds and messed up some of the work they did that hadn't quite set in the ground. They were there is days of it happening and fixed everything like new and shored it up a bit. The fence came out great, the work and work ethic was just as great. Highly recommend Weddell and his crew."

"After buying our new place, my husband and I were unhappy with the damaged fencing. Thankfully, my colleague suggested DeAngele Landscape & Construction to us. Their expert team suggested installing new fencing. We picked chain link fencing and were satisfied with their nominal charges. To anyone looking for reliable fencing services, we recommend this company."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Since wood is weaker when installed horizontally versus vertically, a horizontal fence is prone to sagging. You can prevent this drooping from happening by building a sturdier fence. Use softwoods that are more stable, such as cedar and redwood, or denser hardwoods for your fence materials. If you can’t afford these pricey materials, use thicker two-by-six pressure-treated pine boards or shorten the span the fence boards have to cover by installing more posts.

Standard post spacing for shadowbox fences is 6 to 8 feet. This spacing ensures proper support for the heavy weight of overlapping pickets and prevents sagging between posts. However, areas with high winds, slopes, or unstable soil conditions may require closer spacing.

Vegetable gardens can easily become a convenient food bank for your local animal population, whether it’s squirrels stealing fruit or rabbits munching on freshly grown veggies. If you want to keep those critters out, it helps to put a fence around your vegetable garden that’s at least a couple of feet tall to deter any animals from getting past it. Just make sure your fence doesn’t interrupt the amount of sunlight your garden needs to thrive. 

Common problems include cracks, warping, and loose panels. Regular cleaning prevents discoloration and wear.

Most people prefer to keep the fence level by “stepping” the fence when running a horizontal fence over a slope. Stepping involves raising each panel between the posts as the fence moves over changes in slope, giving the fence line the appearance of stair steps. While this may be the preferred method of running a horizontal fence up a slope, there’s nothing wrong with installing your fence so it follows the undulations in the ground instead.
