"Worst customer service and poor work. Also lied and stole money from me. Never even finished the job and left my house unfinished. Do not use this company!"

"This team was incredibly professional. From quote to completion I was consistently impressed. The price was within the range we expected for a half acre property. The materials used were excellent and the crew was fast, efficient and polite. They arrived early to set posts and were done with the entire job in just 3 days. I definitely recommend this company for any fence project that matters."

Harman and Associates has been in business since 1996. Our primary business is fencing and decks. However, we are skilled in many other trades and are consistantly asked to perform other trades by customers. Our business advertising is by nature through word of mouth. We do however, work as subcontractors for Lowes Home Improvement and are graded weekly on our performance. Our score must maintain 90% or above in order to continue working for Lowes. We have maintained this Score for over 5 years. We do on occasion use carefully screened subcontractors to help us with work load and for areas of expertise that we do not possess. This gives us the opportunity to help our customers to find a contractor that they can be assured will give them the same quality of work that they have come to expect from Harman & Associates.

Animal Fencing questions, answered by experts

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.

Pickets should sit at least 2 inches off the ground to encourage groundwater to flow underneath. Pickets can sit as much as 6 inches off the ground, but setting it any higher could let pets in or out of your yard unintentionally. These are not to be confused with the fence posts anchored underground with soil or concrete footing.

A high-quality wrought iron fence should last you a lifetime, but it will require some TLC on your end. Wrought iron fences are incredibly strong and durable, but they can be susceptible to rust and corrosion, so you’ll need to clean and refinish your fence every two to three years. If you notice rust developing, hire a professional fence repair company to clean the rust and reseal the area of fencing to prolong its life span.

There are many pros and cons to vinyl and composite fencing. Both fencing types offer longer lifespans than wood fencing, with some notable advantages. Whether one is better for you will depend on a few factors. Composite is better if you prefer recycled materials, while vinyl is extremely easy to clean. 

Also, consider the disadvantages: vinyl can be more expensive, while composite fencing fades during the first six months.

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.
