"The crew that put up my fence did an amazing job. They quickly took down the old fence and installed my beautiful new fence. They clean up everything and end result was everything I wanted."
"Contacted company for a quote on a privacy fence. Very friendly and quick to give a quote. Reasonable pricing in comparison with many other companies. Hired them and they were supposed to complete fence in two weeks, though no specific date would be given, At the two week mark was advised they were running behind schedule and would be another week. At that time, advised them that a different company would be used due to the delay."
"These guys did a fantastic job. Very true to their word. Arrived in time, exceeded my expectation on quality, Customer care was also spot on! I will always use them for fence needs and highly recommend! I am not sure I ever worked with a company so easy to do business with."
"We had a great experience with Bobby. He installed a beautiful patio and deck for us. We got a few different quotes and they were outrageous. Then we found Appearance Pro's and we are so thankful we did. Bobby came out to talk with us about what we were wanting and I showed him pictures. He not only gave us what we were wanting but he also came in within our budget. Even though we had to wait to couple weeks because he is so busy. It was well worth the wait and now we understand why he is so busy because no one can beat his prices nor the quality of his workmanship. We are now in the process of getting a fence installed by him and we have also recommended him to everyone we have come across."
"William Oliver and crew are honest, hard working men who can literally do anything or know someone who can. After several quotes and countless hours, I knew immediately after meeting William that his company was the perfect one for the job. The team painted my home (brick and siding), replace rotted wood on my carport, built a new crawl space door, CUSTOM wooden handrails for my front steps, accent shutters as well as a wooden fence all in 3 days! Every crew member is friendly and answered any question that I had without hesitation or judgement. As a woman, having work done on my home, I felt respected and never blown off like I have experienced with other companies in the past. Anytime I called or messaged I heard back in a timely manner which is rare these days. I wholeheartedly support and recommend William and the Oliver Home Repair team!"
"This was the absolute best experience my wife and I have had with a contractor. Luis and his crew were there every morning ready to work. They took exceptional care to protect all surfaces, clean, sand, and prime all surfaces. The work was outstanding and exactly what we wanted. Nothing was skimped on and the workmanship was skillful and experienced. Luis kept us informed every step of the way. He worked with my wife and I on the work plan and he and his team executed it perfectly. We are very pleased with the work performed."
When your rolls of silt fence join together, you’ll want to overlap them to make sure they’re still as effective at keeping water out without requiring fastening together. Overlap two sections of the silt fencing so that two sheets of fabric cover the span of two posts. If you want to fasten them together, you can staple them or use a zip tie, depending on whether your posts are metal or wood.
On most untreated wood fences, there is no need to sand before treating. You typically only need to sand if there’s an old coat of paint or stain on your fence. If you do need to sand off a previous paint or protective coating (like an old stain or sealant), use medium-grit sandpaper.
A metal fence can last for over 30 years if maintained correctly, though the exact lifespan varies by material. For instance, chain-link and aluminum fences can function well for 25 to 30 years, while corrugated metal fences may last up to 60 years with regular maintenance. The lifespan can be shortened by harsh weather, abuse, or lower-quality materials. Galvanized metal tends to last longer due to its protective barrier, whereas sheet and corrugated metal may rust faster than solid pieces.
Paint your fence, install customized fence slats, or attach a bamboo screen for a more appealing yard aesthetic. Paint can give your yard a unique and fun look, and adding fence slats gives you a classic fence appearance. Bamboo screens are probably the most unique option that can add a fun vibe to your space.
Regular staining, sealing, and inspecting for rot or insect damage prolongs fence lifespan.
