"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."
"Mr. Tony and his wife were awesome. They came and got my furniture put together and stuck right with it. They were very nice and easy to talk to and very sweet!! I’d definitely recommend and will definitely call again if I need a job done!! Extremely satisfied!! Thank you again Mr. Tony and Mrs. Nancy for such amazing service!!"
We called them and asked them to build a custom deck. He came out and started our deck immediately and added benches and different levels. He took our design and added to it and made our dream deck better that we could have imagined.
The price was better than we thought it would be.
It was a great experience and we highly recommend them if your looking for a great design and great prices.
"I'd like to start by saying that the finished product looks pretty good but the process to get there was a chore. The major problems were: 1. Just before we signed the contract, the owner of Contour Construction had verbally promised that steps would be taken to protect our home during demolition/construction; specifically plastic put up to minimize dust migrating to other rooms and existing hardwood floors would be protected from damage. Neither of those were done. Consequently, our entire house was full of dust and the existing hardwood floors were severly damaged. As of today there has been no contact from the owner to resolve the issue of the damaged floors. He just left them as is. 2. Another unfulfilled promise was that someone would be on the site to supervise the individual workers. That did not happen either. The owner was good about letting us know when someone was coming to the house but they would arrive alone and unsupervised. Many times the work was done well. However, there were instances where the work had to be redone. This could have been avoided if there was someone there to oversee the quality of the work. Plus, since the owner was rarely on-site during the renovation he had to rely upon the word of his worker(s) who, on a couple of occasions had deliberately misinformed him avoid admitting mistakes! 3. The contracted time period was listed as 3-4 weeks, starting July 1. The last worker left the second week of September; that's 10 weeks! Much of that was the result of poor planning and work having to be redone. In summary the owner of this company probably considered me overly demanding but I wasn't about to ignore shodding workmanship just to avoid "making waves". My philosphy was what would a potential buyer see when s/he looked at the bathroom. With oversight the work would have been done right the first time and this project could have been completed within the contracted time frame. Our theory is that Contour Construction had taken on more work that they could handle at the time and that our project was low on their priortiy list. Again, I believe that the problems we encountered could have been avoided by first, the owner fulfilling the promises he made and second the work had been supervised by someone who had a committment to quality. These were our experiences with Contour Construction. Perhaps someone else would have better luck with them. My suggestion would be get every detail no matter how trivial in writing with no verbal promises as well as being assertive and stopping work immediately if a provision of the contract was not being followed especially workers that are not being supervised.
The depth of your post hole depends on your post length. If you decide on a two-rail fence, the posts are likely 6 feet long. You want your hole to be at least 1/3 of the post length. In this case, your post hole should be two feet deep.
If you opt for a three-rail fence, the posts will typically be 7 feet long, meaning your post hole should be 28 inches deep.
The price of purchasing and installing a fence around a pool is dependent on the type of fence material you choose. On average, a pool fence can cost anywhere from $1,000 to $10,000+. Chain link and mesh fences are the least expensive options, while a fully glass fence will cost the most. Having an inground or above-ground pool will also be a key factor in determining fence prices.
Proper installation can make a big difference in your fence's maintenance needs. For example, wood fences that aren't installed correctly can be more likely to rot. While it's possible to DIY a fence installation, hiring a local fence company can mean much less work for you in the long run.
A professional fence installer will make sure your fence is positioned correctly and installed in a way that ensures longevity and limited upkeep requirements.
You can DIY a stockade fence installation, but prepare to put in some good sweat equity. For the best results, carefully plan the exact location of your fence before you break ground. In particular, carefully map out your post locations before setting them in concrete. Be sure to call your local utility company before digging to avoid damaging underground wiring and causing severe injury.
On the other hand, installing stockade fencing on your own might sound too overwhelming. It’s certainly time-consuming and labor-intensive. Besides the hard work, you must install it properly to avoid gaps. Unless you’re confident you can get the job done right, hiring a privacy fence installer near you is the way to go.
