"I would like to thank Mr Carlos Garcia for his professionalism in providing detailed information regarding my upcoming project for replacement privacy pine wooden fence. He provided detailed information for the breakdown and discarding of the old fence and detail information for staining the fence if interested. He answered my questions regarding the warranties on the the life of the fence he was very informative and I am very appreciative of the time he took explaining everything regarding the project. I commend Mr Garcia for his excellent service I give him the rating of a 10 not a 5 he was excellent thank you. The price quote was also excellent. Upon completion I will share photos of the old fence and the new Privacy Pine fence."

"Steve was very personable and professional.  Quality of work done was very good when the deck was completed.  Attention to detail in regard to cleanup and work was excellent.  Construction was delayed from original date, and Steve was somewhat hard to get hold of at times- I assume this was due to high workload.  Overall was very happy with the work, and would recommend Ritter Fence to others for deck and/or fence construction

Fencing questions, answered by experts

How long a wood fence lasts depends on the type of wood and its style. The design of a shadow box fence makes it more durable than other fence types because the alternating pickets disperse the weight across the rails. As a result, you won’t have to worry as much about sagging or failing pickets. However, remember that the hollow design of a shadow box fence makes it more difficult to apply the sealer, which is crucial to extending its life.

The ideal spacing for four-by-four residential fence posts is usually about 6 to 8 feet between posts. However, if the fence is particularly high or you live in a very windy region, you might want to space them closer together for better stability. A fence pro can help you decide on your post spacing. 

Goats need at least 250 square feet of space each, but that’s if you’re also supplementing hay. Since goats are social animals, you’ll want to avoid renting only one goat, which would take a long time to clear your land, anyway. Instead, opt for at least two goats per 500 square feet of land. Most rental companies will only rent out goats by the acre, but check your local goat rental companies to see if they make exceptions.

A chain link fence typically lasts between 15 and 20 years, but with proper maintenance, it can last for 30 years or more. To preserve the fence, it's important to keep the mesh wire tight, which can be done with a come-along tool every 6 to 12 months. Investing in a fence with a galvanized, powder-coated, or vinyl-coated finish can increase its lifespan to 20 to 30 years and reduce maintenance needs, as these coatings provide extra protection against the elements.

The maximum recommended slope on which you can build a racked or stepped fence is 45 degrees. After that, construction becomes quite tricky and may require the use of retaining walls or terraces to make the fenced area flatter.
