"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!

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

While they can be closer, the maximum distance between fence posts for residential fences is 8 feet. This ensures the panels are adequately supported by the fence posts. This is usually dictated by the width of the panel, which is typically between 5 and 8 feet. While narrower panels will require more posts, they’ll be lighter and easier to work with than wider panels that are the same height.

Permit requirements for new fencing vary based on location. Typically, fences less than 6 feet tall in your backyard do not require a permit. Fences in the front yard usually have a lower height cap. There can also be exceptions if you live in a highly populated area or an area with mixed residential and commercial zones.

Who pays for a fence between neighbors depends on where the fence falls in regard to the property line. If the fence is completely on your property, you’ll have to pay for its installation, maintenance, and repair—even if it’s close to your neighbor’s side. If the fence falls directly on the property line, each neighbor is responsible for its costs. It’s a good idea to know your property lines before building a fence. If you want to build a fence on the property line, you must consult with your neighbor to work out a plan on who pays and how much.

It depends on the side of the property the fence falls on when determining if you or your neighbor share the responsibility for the fence repair. However, many fences run along the property line, which means you and your neighbor share the fence, and you’re both responsible for repairs and can likely split the costs.

In the vast majority of cases, chain-link fences are less expensive than wood fences. Installing a wood fence costs anywhere from 20% to 30% more than a chain-link fence, or an average of $3,100, whereas a similarly sized chain-link fence will average around $2,400. Even with add-ons and additional protective finishes, a chain-link fence is very likely to cost you less than a wood fence. The only exception would be a split rail wood fence, which can cost about half the price of a chain-link fence or less.
