"Bert and his men did a wonderful job with my fence. They were very friendly and personable while working very hard. They cleaned after themselves and finished the job very quickly considering it rained majority of the time. I would gladly recommend Fences2U to everyone looking to do their fence. Thank you!"

"From the quote to the follow up I was so happy with the entire process. The work is not contracted out. It was done by the family who owns the company and their employees. They were quick, considerate and accommodating to the fact I had other work going on and they had to deal with dig safe because of the gas pipeline in my yard. The price was great and right on target with my numerous other quotes. They had a wonderful selection of fences and actually listened and asked questions. I have done a lot of work on my house and this company far exceeds any of the contractors I have used so far. So much so that I have never written a review before. They just did such a great job I think other people need to know!"

"On the day we moved into our house over a year ago, I ran into the chainlink fence along our driveway with the moving van and crumpled the end post.  It was mostly upright but the chainlink part was not connected anymore and it looked awful. I finally decided to do something about this and called Greg's Fencing. They returned my phone call that night, and after we talked about the work, they came out the next day to inspect the damage and left me a written estimate far lower than what I had expected. After that, we communicated through voicemail for about a week until the repairs were done. There was a little confusion that resulted from not actually reaching each other on the phone, and at points it was not clear to me exactly when they would come out. A message they left on Friday said they would be out on Saturday or early the next week; the work was finally done Friday of that week. However, I was not in a great rush (as I had told them) and was very pleased to come home to find the fence restored to its former uprightness. They did not contact me after that, either by phone or with a bill, so I just mailed a check to their address for the amount of the estimate. The quality of the work is great, the price was great, the time frame was actually fine, and I think the communication would have worked out much better had I been available to answer the phone when they called. If I ever run over my fence again, I will definitely call them."

"I am very pleased with the outcome. This was a rush job to meet demands from my insurance company to install hand rails. All things considered it went very well. There was a unexpected week of "radio silence" that was a little unnerving while I was trying to keep my insurance company up to date on progress. It turns out Matt was on vacation and away from the office which would have been good to know._I was also a little surprised when one day they were installed with no warning. I would have liked to have approved them before they were permanently installed. However, I was ultimately very pleased and he met the deadline required by my insurance company."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

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. 

The lifespan of a fence can range from 5 to 50 years, depending heavily on the material, local climate, and how well it is maintained. For example, a wooden fence might last 7 to 15 years, while a vinyl fence typically lasts 20 to 30 years. Metal, composite, and glass fences have some of the longest lifespans. Proper maintenance, such as regular cleaning, inspections, and staining or sealing for wood, is key to extending the life of any fence material. Vinyl and composite are durable options that don't require sealing.

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.

The best fence option for you depends on your property, budget, and style preferences, but a corrugated metal fence could be a good option if you want something durable yet low-maintenance. Unlike wood, corrugated metal won’t fall prey to rot or pest damage, and the metal can be recycled after its life as a fence comes to an end.

Vinyl or PVC fences offer low-maintenance features, weather resistance, and diverse style options, ideal for security and privacy without extensive upkeep.
