What is the cheapest privacy fence to build?

• <div><p>Of all the fencing options, the cheapest type is a repurposed pallet fence because it’s made of used materials that are easy to find for free. But if you’re not interested in the DIY game, customize a covered chain link fence or a plain wood fence to provide the best privacy possible. </p></div>

Q: What factors impact the cost of vinyl or PVC fence installation?

• <div><p>Costs depend on material quality, fence length and height, installation complexity, and customization choices, but they average $20-$40 per linear foot.</p></div>

Q: How long does a fence last?

• <div><p>How long a fence should last depends on the type of fence, but a common split wooden fence should last seven to 10 years. Chain link can last much longer, with wrought iron and concrete lasting decades. If you're interested in your fence lasting as long as possible&mdash;and it's made of wood&mdash;consider sealing and treating the wood so it can stand up to the environment. Wood is the only fence type that requires this, as concrete and metal are almost always waterproof. </p></div>

Q: What is the cheapest fence to put around your property?

• <div><p>The cheapest fence to install is likely to be a wire fence, whether it&rsquo;s hog wire or chicken wire. Closely following that is something repurposed that would be free to collect, like a DIY pallet fence. Most wire fences are available in large quantities at a low cost, so they&rsquo;re great for homes with a tight budget.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to inform my neighbor I’m building a new fence?

• <div><p>Most homeowners don't need to inform their neighbors before constructing a fence, according to the law, but you will need to make sure that you&rsquo;re building on the property line or on your side of the property line. Otherwise, the neighbor could complain, which would require you to tear down and reinstall the fence. In any case, keeping them in the loop is the neighborly thing to do!</p><p>Whether you inform your neighbors or not, always use property records and a land survey to ensure your fence stays within your property boundaries.</p></div>

We hired Curtis to install a vinyl fence for our backyard. He showed up when he said he would and got right to work measuring for our new fence. Once our fence and supplies were delivered he had our fence up and ready to use within 3 days. We couldnâ t be happier with our new fence.

The work turned out fine. They had a reasonable price. They had installed fences around pools and I figured if they could do that type of work, they could do a great job at standard fence installations.

We had wild animals in our attic which was creepy. Blue Chip did an outstanding job: They placed traps and baited them. They identified the points of entry and utlimately sealed them off. They were very responsive every time we had something in a trap, coming late at night and on weekends. ...

"I highly recommend Fence and Deck Depot for anyone looking to undertake a deck project. In 2022, I made the mistake of cutting corners by opting for a cheaper option with a big box retailer, and it ended up being a disaster with a failed deck by the city and a settlement that took nine months. Luckily, Fence & Deck Depot came to my rescue and provided top-notch service and materials. The Deck: The crew of two took one week to finish. One aspect that truly stood out was the level of craftsmanship displayed by the team. They paid meticulous attention to detail, ensuring every composite panel was perfectly straight. Even the parts of the deck that no one would typically see, like the lumber pillars underneath the deck, were painted to blend in. Before leaving the project, they hosed down the deck and removed any debris. The commitment to excellence and a high level of integrity sets them apart. Experience: From start to finish, the professionalism of the Fence & Deck Depot team was exceptional. They consistently maintained clear communication at every step of the process, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience. What truly sets them apart is their willingness to go above and beyond. Initially, we had our deck installed by a big box retailer to save costs. Unfortunately, the deck failed multiple city inspections, requiring its complete removal. Fortunately, the Fence & Deck Depot team stepped in, offering guidance and answering our questions as we navigated a settlement with the original installer. What's remarkable is that they were incredibly responsive, addressing numerous emails and phone calls even though we had yet to officially become their clients by signing a contract or providing a down payment. Their support was entirely in good faith, and we greatly appreciate their dedication to helping us through our difficult situation."
