"Southern Magnolia Fencing has installed 2 fences for us. The first fence installation had some unforeseen problems with a retaining wall. Rick found a solution, with no added expense, and the fence is beautiful. This work was done in the extreme heat of the summer. His crew never complained. They were courteous, respectful of our property, and finished in a timely manner. The second fence was installed the same way-timely, the crew was courteous and the fence is a wonderful addition. Neither fence installation exceeded the price that was quoted. I would highly recommend Southern Magnolia Fencing."
"They did great work. Their fence system with the metal posts is super sturdy and very high quality. Will recommend to friends and family. It was a little more than standard wood posts but after replacing an 8 year old fence it was well worth the investment."
"Excellent work, very high quality fencing, communicated with me well on the timeline and execution of the work.
I needed a good netwire fence to contain my Brittany Spanial bird dogs and he provided just what I needed!"
"To start , Bobbie is a worker. He gets his work done. We had so much work, unbelievable! He continued until his time was up. He has another day. He is on when he come. He is very Manet able."

A barbed wire fence will last an average of 15 to 20 years, but the life expectancy can range anywhere between five and 50 years. Thicker wires last longer, as do fences made with galvanized metal. If the barbed wire fence is in a climate with harsh winters and summers, it likely won’t last more than 10 to 15 years. Failing to keep up with maintenance and repairs will also shorten the lifespan of a barbed wire fence.
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.
To maintain a chain link fence and extend its lifespan, perform routine checks and cleaning. This includes inspecting for rust, tightening any loose bolts or hardware, and removing debris buildup. These steps help preserve the fence's appearance and function.
In terms of materials, chicken wire mesh will be the most inexpensive option to use when building your fence. The downside is that it’s not the most attractive garden fence option. In a similar vein, you could choose a DIY fence made out of repurposed items, like car tires, or wooden pallets, either of which would be free to collect.
Pallet fences come with built-in support through the fence posts you should install on each side of their vertical interior. Stand the fence upright and slide it onto the fence posts, then further support it with 2x4 wood boards that you drill across each point where two pallets connect side-by-side.
