"Cesar gave the best cost of the 5 estimates I received for the fence. He and the other workers completed the fence in just a little over a day. They worked efficiently and cleanly, and were very considerate of the safety of others, including my neighbors, during this COVID-19 pandemic. The fence looks great!"

"The Fence and Deck Connection total experience completely exceeded expectations! From the initial contact to request a meeting; meeting with David King to discuss our ideas and creating design plans; receiving CAD drawing of the design; meeting with Anthony (AJ) Jean-Louis to discuss production plans and quickly answering questions along the way; the production team did a great job on the work site everyday - from start to finish; and meeting with AJ for final walkthrough. The complete process was done with professionalism; an enjoyable experience for such a major project. We are so glad that we selected Fence and Deck Connection for our deck and fence replacement projects. We look forward to enjoying our deck for many years to come!"

"The job went great. It had to be pushed back from Monday 2 days due to rain. I was called early Monday morning and told they'd be out on Wednesday. They showed up early Wednesday and got right to work after walking the job. Very polite, efficient and professional. Rustic Fence did the original fence 26 years ago. A pleasure to work with."

"Superb service! Very professional, punctual, polite, and thorough! They showed up exactly on time. They took great care to not damage flowerbeds. The new fence is sturdy, well-built, and looks great. Excellent value! I would definitely hire again. I highly recommend CLM Home Improvements for fence replacements."

"From the moment I called requesting a quote Maryland Decking was the only one that actually spent time to explain everything. From the time I signed the contract to the end I had a wonderful experience. Josh was so helpful, explained everything in detail and never skipped a step. I would highly recommend Maryland Decking you will not be disappointed and will love the quality of work that you need. Ask for Josh, trust me he will work with you from start to finish. All my neighbors have commented on the quality of work with my fence. Thanks again Maryland Decking! You are truly the best!!"

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. 

This depends mainly on how well the posts were installed and what type of wood was used to build the gate in the first place. Softwoods have a life expectancy of up to 15 years but can last slightly longer with regular maintenance and waterproofing treatments. By contrast, hardwoods can last up to 30 years with little care, so you may avoid costly replacements by spending a little more upfront.

Armadillos are attracted to water, so a leaky irrigation system or an overwatered lawn can encourage them to move in. They especially like wet areas where they can burrow and loose soil where they can dig for grubs. They are also attracted to dense ground cover, where they can often find food sources.

A wobbly fence can be caused by a number of things, though poor installation is the usual culprit. It’s always best to have your fence installed by a professional who can ensure the posts are placed correctly and that the chain links have the correct amount of tension.

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.
