"It went very smoothly from first contact through job execution. Some neighbors had recommended them as a previous contractor never did the fencing job he had promised. In the end, they were less costly and did a fantastic job."

"The fence is sturdy and beautiful.  Horizon Fence Company made this fence which I chose for aesthetic value as well as ability for it to last without much, if any, maintenance.   The owner was responsive throughout and courteous, made an appointment to measure and show pictures of offered styles.  Horizon was competitve in pricing (obtained more than one quote), and up front about expected timing before the fence would be installed.  The company wanted a deposit (approximately 1/3 of cost), but did not require the balance of payment until the job was complete, as the owner communicated he wanted the customer to be happy.  Horizon also directed me to make sure there were no underground obstacles with the proper utilities.  The price was not inexpensive, but the cost was in line with what is paid for the material and quality of work - appreciated the personalized touches such as an estate rail option.  When placing the fence, they inquired how I wanted it to look when placement complete.  It is a beautiful fence, all who have seen it agree.  Right away friends and neighbors commented how great it looks.  I am very pleased with it and it adds to the property.

"Charlie was prompt, professional, courteous and did an amazing job painting a very narrow two-story stairwell. We could never have finished this project on our own. I was given a quote, date and time the project would be completed and it was. Highly recommend handy guy services - we will definitely be working with him again!"

"I hired Ray and Kevin to remove my old deck and rebuild it. The price was very fair. We had multiple contractors give us estimates and there?s was the most reasonable for us. They communicated with us throughout the project. I would highly recommend them to anyone for anything. They were also upfront on what they can and can?t do."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

The most common hog wire gauge for a fence is 12.5. However, you can choose from a few gauges based on your needs. While 12.5 is a reliable gauge for penning in large, strong animals, 9 gauge is a better option of you have large animals that are easily spooked, such as horses. For smaller animals, like dogs or pigs, you can use a 16 gauge hog wire.

In most cases, trees need to be protected from deer all year round. This is especially true if you want to protect small trees from deer or if you just planted some fresh, new trees. Once a tree is a few years old, you likely do not have to worry about protecting it from deer as it will be stronger and can handle a little damage.

Hedges are a better financial investment for a home than fences in several ways. First, hedges are less expensive to install than fences. Fence installation costs $1,775 to $4,600, depending on the type and size. You can also choose to plant smaller and less expensive hedges, knowing that it will take longer for them to mature. Next, mature hedges add resale value to the home, meaning the cost savings get even better when it's time to sell.

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.

Whether you need a permit to build or install a fence depends on several factors, including your location, the fence's height, its placement in your yard, and the materials used. In many cities and highly populated areas, a permit is required, especially for fences taller than 6 feet. Conversely, rural areas may have fewer restrictions. Typically, backyard privacy fences 6 feet or shorter do not require a permit, while front yard fences often have a lower height limit, sometimes as low as 3.5 feet. There can also be exceptions for properties in mixed residential-commercial zones. It's best to check with your local building inspection or zoning department to understand the specific requirements, height restrictions, and location rules for your area. A professional fence installer can help you navigate this process and often secure the necessary permits for you, though this may extend the project timeline.
