"As a contractor and Garden Design company owner it was great to find such a great company to work with. I found All Pointes Fencing by driving around my neighborhood and seeing all their great work. After linking up with the company owner Lester he eased the process of getting things done. This company has helped me more than once and I would gladly use them again. Fence was fair price, straight and well done. Thanks Lester and All Pointes."

"The Bieri brothers did a great job communicating, collaborating and working with us to install a wood fence in our backyard. They were timely and efficient, despite the freezing temperature working conditions. The pricing was reasonable and competitive with other local fence professionals. We enjoyed working with them and would definitely recommend!"

"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

Yes, installing a picket fence is a manageable DIY project for homeowners with basic tools and some patience. The process involves marking the fence line, digging post holes, setting the posts, and attaching horizontal rails and pickets. However, precision is key to ensure the fence is straight and sturdy, which can be challenging for beginners. If the fence line is long, the ground is uneven, or you’re working with more complex materials like metal or composite, hiring a pro may be a better option.

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.

You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.

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.

Split rail fencing is a type of post and rail fencing. Other post and rail fences include corral board and post and dowel. Post and rail fencing is the term used for any type of fence with vertical posts, horizontal rails, and nothing else (specifically excluding pickets). So, technically, a split rail fence is a post and rail fence.
