"Garcia Fence did a great job on our small backyard fence project for our new puppy Izzy. Frank and Derrick were very responsive to our questions and requirements. They made sure the fence did not have any gaps or areas for our little escape artist to test her skills. They used premium materials and the workmanship was top notch. We had a tricky area for them to navigate due to multiple, power, internet and drainage obstacles."

"Jose and Santos, of Rainbow Home Improvement, were professionals and gentlemen. They patiently listened to us, offered thoughtful suggestions, worked efficiently, left a clean job site when they finished, and were very respectful throughout. It was a pleasure to do business with them, and we will hire them again when we have another project. They specialize in decking, fencing, and painting."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

If you have the time and the budget, we strongly recommend staining your fence, especially if it's looking a bit tired or hasn't been treated recently. While you may not see the same return on investment (ROI) as you would with a project like a kitchen remodel, staining a fence is one of the best ways to add a facelift to your property—a new fence stain adds serious curb appeal to your home. 

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. 

The best wood for fence posts are redwood, cedar, and pressure-treated pine. Wood posts made from these materials will typically lasts between 15 and 30 years, depending on the specific type you choose and your local climate. With proper care and maintenance, a fence post made of these materials can withstand most weather conditions.

Pickets should sit at least 2 inches off the ground to encourage groundwater to flow underneath. Pickets can sit as much as 6 inches off the ground, but setting it any higher could let pets in or out of your yard unintentionally. These are not to be confused with the fence posts anchored underground with soil or concrete footing.

Maintain your wattle fence by inspecting it at least twice per year for loose weaving and degrading branches. Replace any seriously degraded sections, ensure water drains properly around the posts, and trim any sprouting branches if you used green wood. If you notice the weave loosening, you can often tighten it by gently pushing down on the top branches. You can also apply a natural wood preservative every two to three years to extend the fence's lifespan.
