"Couldn't have gone better. Although Lester had more than 50 calls after a bad wind storm, he was able to get to my job in less than a week. His quote was half of another local, certified fence company. Because I was treated so well, and the price was fair, I plan to have Lester replace the fence that had to be torn down and possibly fence the rest of my large back yard."

"I recently hired Bieri Brother Fences to install my fence gates, and they did a fantastic job from start to finish. I inquired about the project and they reached out right away to schedule the repair — and were even able to fit me in the very next day! They completed the work quickly and efficiently, and the craftsmanship is excellent. Everyone I interacted with was kind, courteous, and professional. Their pricing was great, and they were willing to work with me on paying the remaining balance over time, which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Bieri Brother Fences to anyone needing fence work. They made the whole process easy and stress-free!"

"Devon did an excellent job replacing the ground trellis surrounding our deck. He was very thorough and intentional in his approach, studying the area and circumstances that led to the demise of the original structure. He developed a couple of potential solutions and explained the pros and cons of each option. It was clear that Devon set high standards for himself. He takes great pride in completing his work so that the results meet or exceed his customer’s expectations."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Both nails and screws are common in fence construction, including on pickets. Some builders prefer to use nails when connecting the pickets to the rails and screws when connecting the rails to the posts. However, the best option usually depends on the type of wood fencing and the variety of wood you choose.

There are two things you can do to make a fence replacement easier—but keep in mind that easier doesn’t mean better. First, you can use a jack or some other type of machinery to pull the post out of the ground. If that’s not available, a digging bar can help.

Second, you can backfill the hole with gravel rather than creating a concrete footing. Keep in mind, gravel is less secure. You should only use it if you’re installing a lightweight fence or have heavier, clay soil.

While most homeowners aren't required to tell their neighbors that they’re putting up a fence, it's certainly a good idea to do so. Not only is it considerate to give neighbors a heads up about construction noise, but building a fence may limit your neighbors' access to their own backyards while building is taking place. 

Black chain-link fences last an average of 15 to 20 years. The thicker a fence's wire gauge, the longer it will tend to last. The black vinyl coating gives the fence rust and corrosion resistance, but its life span may be lower in wet, humid, or coastal climates where moisture or salty air can corrode the coating more quickly.

The cheapest farm fences are typically wire fences, which cost less to install than traditional lumber fences. Barbed wire is one of the most inexpensive options due to its simple materials, making it a good choice for low budgets. It is suitable for confining docile animals in large spaces, as it provides a visual barrier and a mild deterrent. Other options like hog wire and woven wire fences are also cost-effective because they require less lumber than a full wooden fence. These types of wire fences are strong, long-lasting, and relatively easy to repair, though they are often considered less aesthetically pleasing than wood.
