Q: How close to the property line can I build a fence?

• <div><p>Knowing how close to the property line you can build a fence is an important planning step in your fence installation project. In many U.S. states, you are allowed to build a fence directly on the property line as long as your neighbor signs off on the plan. But check with your state government because some states and municipalities require a couple of inches before your property line.</p></div>

Q: How much longer will a fence last if it is stained?

• <div><p>Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-wood-fencing-last.htm">help your wood fence last</a> 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You&rsquo;ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.</p></div>

Q: How do I keep animals out of my yard with a fence?

• <div><p>To effectively <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-ways-keep-critters-away-your-home.htm">keep animals out of your yard</a> with a fence, choose a fence that anchors to the ground to deter digging. Also, consider adding a barrier below the fence to prevent burrowing. </p><p>To make your yard less desirable to animals, eliminate food sources like a vegetable garden, and ensure your garbage cans are sealed and tamper-proof. Installing motion-activated devices like lights or sprinklers will startle animal intruders. Also, a fence won&rsquo;t work well if you forget to keep gates closed and secure. If you still face persistent animal intrusion issues, contact a wildlife control expert who can offer specialized solutions.</p></div>

Q: Why should I pick vinyl for my fence?

• <div><p>Vinyl fencing stays popular with homeowners because it&rsquo;s durable and aesthetically pleasing. In addition to offering plenty of privacy, vinyl fences have a life span of <b>20 to 30 years</b> with minimal maintenance. You don&rsquo;t have to worry about these fences warping or rotting due to moisture, and this material doesn&rsquo;t contain toxic chemicals.</p></div>

Q: Is an invisible fence or a physical fence better for dogs?

• <div><p>There&rsquo;s no definitive answer to this question because dog owners and experts are conflicted about the efficacy and morality of electric fences. However, physical fences are typically considered a better option since they provide guaranteed containment for your pup, provided they are tall enough, and your dog can&rsquo;t dig under them. Physical fences can also provide privacy, which might stop your dog from barking at people or animals walking by. Physical dog fences tend to be more expensive, but most homeowners find them to be a better option overall.</p></div>
