"We have used Service Star for 5 different projects in our back yard. Nick and his crew are very professional on the job site, listened to all of our wishes for our yard, (especially the fact that we did not want the rest of our yard torn up while these projects were occurring), and did beautiful work on all projects. They were not afraid of doing hard work by hand to avoid wear and tear on the existing yard with heavy machinery. We gave Nick the basic idea of what we saw for our yard, let him do the design work, and we are very happy with his eye for design. The jobs were done in a timely fashion, despite the fact that the weather did not cooperate at all times. After each and every workday, all tools and equipment left on site were neatly placed in one spot leaving a tidy worksite. Upon completion of each job, Nick walked through the yard to make sure we were completely satisfied, which we were each and every time. The clean up after each job was impeccable, leaving us with nothing to tend to afterward. We are so happy with all they have done in our back yard that we have just signed for them to do some work in our front yard! All in all, we highly recommend Service Star for your landscaping needs. - Kevin and Kelly, very happy customers!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Since wood is weaker when installed horizontally versus vertically, a horizontal fence is prone to sagging. You can prevent this drooping from happening by building a sturdier fence. Use softwoods that are more stable, such as cedar and redwood, or denser hardwoods for your fence materials. If you can’t afford these pricey materials, use thicker two-by-six pressure-treated pine boards or shorten the span the fence boards have to cover by installing more posts.

Wire fences are generally the most inexpensive type of farm fence to install, especially compared to lumber. Barbed wire is one of the cheapest options due to its simple materials, making it a good choice for low budgets and for confining docile animals in large spaces. Other options include hog wire and woven wire fences, which are strong, long-lasting, and relatively easy to repair. While wire fences require less lumber and reduce overall project costs, they are often considered less aesthetically pleasing than traditional wood fences.

How long a fence lasts, including a split rail fence, will depend on the material from which it’s made. The average lifespan of a wood fence is about 15 to 20 years. However, split rail fences made out of premium materials, like composite, vinyl, steel, or aluminum, can last for 25 to 30 years or more, especially if you take good care of the material and carry out necessary maintenance.

If possible, it is beneficial to paint both sides of your fence to protect the fence more completely from the elements. Painting both sides of your fence will create a more consistent appearance as well. However, the time and cost involved in painting both sides of the fence may cause people to paint only the side they see.

When it comes to maintenance, vinyl fencing is your best bet for not having to worry about scratches, repainting, or wear and tear from the weather. Vinyl is a material made of polyvinyl chloride (also known as PVC) that can last for years without requiring repairs or maintenance. It’s also one of the lower-cost fence materials to build with.
