"The team was polite and professional. They arrived on time complete the project in two days which were two of the hottest days of the year. However, they neglected to install the quoted post caps, which I had to follow up on to get installed. Also, a number of the boards installed were significantly bent."

"Brothers company was by far the easiest company I ever worked with. Theyâ re integrity, reliability, and honesty really put them at forefront of painter and Carpentry. We had a lot of wood rot, Carlos was very thorough making sure he found all the rot and made sure I saw it and understood each steps. They also painted the house and stain the deck. My deck never looked so good!"
"We had a few delays because of the rain. But when stopped raining they showed up on time and started the project. They finished the gate next day. Clean up the trash and hauled it away. I would recommend EZHome to have a fence installed."
"Sweetgrass was amazing! They also regraveked our driveway. Tge fence was built piece by piece and it looks fabulous. I'd hire Sweetgrass for anything I needed that they offer."
"AA Fence and Deck was a surefire win as I searched for a fence contractor. I live in a new home community and needed a fence built against an existing border fence. The PM Ryan was quick to give me a quote that was thorough, fair, and transparent. Triple A promptly handled the permit and the HOA paperwork and I was able to review all documents via an online portal. The project crew did an AMAZING job installing the cap and trim fence. The craftsmanship is solid and I was kept informed during the process from start to finish. I really appreciated Ryan and Steven’s visit to check on how the project was coming along, and the team completed it in 2.5 days. A HUGE THANK you to Triple A for such great customer service. My family and my dog will enjoy this fence for years to come!!"
"I cannot recommend Logan and Southern Solutions highly enough! Logan was incredibly personable and professional, and my new gate came out wonderfully. The next day, I asked him about an existing post that wasn’t level, completely unrelated to his work, and he came back out that same day to take a look. He even offered to return and correct some existing posts while waiving the labor to make sure I was 100% satisfied. Great attitude, work ethic, and customer service. Cordial, attentive, and genuinely committed to doing right by his customers. Highly recommend!"
You can use pressure-treated wood for a horizontal fence, but you’ll need to purchase a thicker and higher-quality variety to ensure it doesn’t sag or warp after you install it. Use #2 pine grade lumber and boards and thicker dimensional lumber, such as a two-by-six. You’ll also need to use stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners, as the chemicals in the treated lumber will cause regular galvanized fasteners to rust.
There are two things you can do to make a fence replacement easier—but keep in mind that easier doesn’t mean better. First, you can use a jack or some other type of machinery to pull the post out of the ground. If that’s not available, a digging bar can help.
Second, you can backfill the hole with gravel rather than creating a concrete footing. Keep in mind, gravel is less secure. You should only use it if you’re installing a lightweight fence or have heavier, clay soil.
There are many types of wood fencing that you can choose from. For split rail fencing, the most common wood types are cedar, pine, black locust, and chestnut. The best wood for you will depend on if you like the way a certain wood looks and the availability of the wood type in your area.
Most of the wood types you can find at your local home improvement store are good choices since they all have rot-resistant properties or are pressure-treated with pesticides. If none of the wood options speak to the look you’re going for, check out vinyl fencing.
How long it takes to install a fence depends on the size of the fence; the longer the fence, the longer the install will take. That said, you can typically install a bamboo fence over a weekend for a reasonably sized yard. A team of fencing contractors can likely get your bamboo fence assembled in half a day to a day.
Customization options include coatings, privacy slats, and incorporating colors or ornamental elements to enhance aesthetic appeal.
