"This company was atrocious from start to finish! My fence was installed in 2022 and it's practically falling down and coming apart. About 6 months after installation, the fence was was leaning 2-3 feet as they dug the fence post holes about a foot deep! My fence was only 6 months old, still under contract warranty, and the owner screamed at me for waiting so long to tell him there was a problem! His 6 guy team of goons literally laughed in my face telling g me there was little they could do to fix it because it was made out of wood!! The other side of my backyard has a 40 year old wood stockade fence that is still standing and looking perfect! The fencing they used is completely subpar. The wood is already rotting and the slats are warping so bad the nails are coming g out!

The fence sections are disconnecting from each othe"

I'm a one-man operation, but I do a wide range of jobs from little fix-its to whole-room overhauls. I put a lot of care and attention to detail into my work, and I prioritize communication, timeliness, and cleanliness. I do free estimates and simple contracts that specify the work to be done and the price to be paid.

Animal Fencing questions, answered by experts

Yes, fence posts need to be installed below the frost line to ensure stability and prevent heaving caused by freezing and thawing cycles. The frost line is the depth at which soil freezes during winter. By placing posts below this line, often around 3 to 4 feet deep or as recommended for your specific region, you reduce the risk of the ground shifting, which can lead to leaning or unstable fences. Adequate depth provides better anchoring and helps maintain the fence's integrity, ensuring it remains secure and upright throughout changing seasons.

Installing a picket fence includes measuring and marking the area where you plan to build the fence, laying out all of the materials, digging post holes, setting the posts using concrete, measuring the rails, attaching the rails, attaching the pickets, and then painting or staining the fence if you chose a wooden fence material. 

Posts for a horizontal fence should be no more than 6 feet apart. Wood pickets are not as strong when mounted horizontally as when mounted vertically. As such, the fence panels on a horizontal fence can’t cover the same span between posts as a vertical fence can. If you install the posts further apart on a horizontal fence, the fence will lose stability, making the boards more likely to sag. 

Traditional bamboo fences use twine to attach pickets to posts and stringers, but you have to keep an eye on the twine, as it will deteriorate over time. Alternatively, you can fasten bamboo pickets to framing using fence screws.

Ideally, your concrete should set slightly above ground at an angle sloping away from the fence post. This will add extra support and allow water to run away from the wood fence post. Keeping water out will help prevent wood rot. Additionally, you can add soil on top of the concrete for a seamless finish.
