"Nick and Andy were amazing workers! Always on time and the fence they put up is amazing!, They worked with me on the gates for my dogs which were a little tougher due to the slant in my yard. I have had los of compliments on the fence too.. There was a time issue on getting the fencing n gates to my house but I blame Loweâ s for the supply issue. Nick was very honest and upfront with everything.. I really appreciated the communication . I definitely would recommend Hochstein Fence!"

"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!"

"I had a great experience with this roofing company. They took on a few side projects at my house and were completely transparent about what actually needed to be done—no upselling or unnecessary work. Their pricing was more than fair, especially considering the quality of the work. They were professional, friendly, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. When the job was finished, they left everything spotless, which I really appreciated. Overall, they did an outstanding job. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for honest, high-quality roofing"

"The entire experience from initial inquiry, intake, and logistics coordination to job and completion -- went perfectly. Ultimately, the job was serviced by a young handyman, clearly with an array of skills and know-how, who was gracious and professional beyond his years. This was particularly remarkable coming off an experience on Thumback with someone who looked superior on paper who turned out to be a swaggering mess, with no standards on communication or coordination -- regardless of his decades of experience. If all of American Handi Services' team are like Kyle -- I can't wait to work with them time and time again. Kyle immediately assessed the situation and we agreed on a plan, which did involve a dip out to the store. He was clear on time management, incremental expenses (i.e. the nuts and bolts he had to go buy), and even just being in our home. He moved about as though he were in a gallery where people were sleeping. Then, he was fast and meticulous with the work. Just excellent. We are already booking our next job. I'm making a list!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Typically, a fence requires one to two coats of stain. The exact number can vary depending on the porosity of the wood. For specific guidance, it's best to check the manufacturer's instructions. After applying the first coat and letting it dry completely, you can assess the finish. If it appears patchy, uneven, or you want a more saturated color, a second coat is recommended. An extra coat can also help cover lap marks.

Planting greenery on a fence can help achieve more privacy, whether it’s shrubs along a picket or chain link fence or rolls of faux greenery to help create a solid-colored backdrop beyond the fence line. You can also try adding more lattice or paneling across a fence so that there are fewer places where passing eyeballs can see in.

You'll pay less on average for the cost of a wooden fence compared to aluminum. However, the price highly depends on the type of wood, the fence design, and extra additions like gates and coats of paint. For example, you may pay less to install an aluminum fence since the panels anchor in the ground, whereas wood fences often take longer to construct, especially picket fences.

A setback is an area of space between your fence and the property line, meaning you build a fence a few inches before your neighbor’s property begins. You can build your fence on a setback—some communities recommend this—but this means a sliver of your property will be on your neighbor’s side of your fence.

The lifespan of a fence can range from 5 to 50 years, depending heavily on the material, local climate, and how well it is maintained. For example, a wooden fence might last 7 to 15 years, while a vinyl fence typically lasts 20 to 30 years. Metal, composite, and glass fences have some of the longest lifespans. Proper maintenance, such as regular cleaning, inspections, and staining or sealing for wood, is key to extending the life of any fence material. Vinyl and composite are durable options that don't require sealing.
