"Not only did Scott do a great job installing my fence around my patio, he installed my fence in the middle of winter, while the ground was still frozen. He also chopped down a couple of trees for me. Scott did a great job installing my fence, the price was right & my fence looks nice!! Anytime you need outdoor work, you should reach out to my guy Scott @ Maeder Enterprises. They all do great work all year round, even in the winter!"

"Nick replied quickly to the request for the install. He was able to come to the property after I returned from vacation, and worked exceptionally well with our crazy schedules. We had an issue with the delivery of the fencing material from the supplier and Nick and his team were more than willing to work around the conflict with out issue! The price offered was extremely fair for almost 300ft of fencing! It only took them about 2 days to install all of it, and it looks amazing! The team he had to install the fence did an amazing job, were extremely professional, and extremely clean! If I was to need any other service for my lawn or landscaping these guys would be my first call! I can not say enough positive things about this company!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

There’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’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.

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.

You’ll need to bury the garden fence about 1 foot underground. It’s tempting to save on materials by burying the fence just a couple of inches, but if you do so, determined pests will still be able to dig under the fence and access your plants. Burying your garden fence deep into the soil is an important step that allows you to attach a wire barrier to the fencing. 

Burrowing animals (like voles, moles, rabbits, and gophers) can’t dig or chew through this wiring, meaning that you’ll be keeping your prized petunias or your robust veggie garden from being eaten.

You can only change your neighbor's fence with their permission. A neighbor's fence is their property, and altering it without their consent could constitute trespassing or property damage, which may have legal consequences. If you have concerns or disagreements about your neighbor's fence, communicate with them openly and try to reach a mutually agreeable solution. If you believe the fence violates local zoning laws or property regulations, consult with local authorities or seek legal advice to address the issue through proper channels. 

The best wood for a farm fence is pressure-treated wood that will stand up to various weather conditions, animal contact, and moisture. Farm fences need to resist rot and damage, so choose a species such as cedar or redwood. The natural oils in these woods give them decay resistance, which also makes them ideal for other fence types, such as a wooden snow fence.
