"The guys came out and fixed our fence that had been up for 62 years. Someone ran into our fence and took about 40 feet of our fence down. These guys replace our old fence and did a beautiful job. With the fence bing so old,I was afraid of what it was going to look like when it was fixed. These guys did a beautiful job in putting new fence that matched ours and it looks so pretty now and I am so proud of it now. I would highly recommend these guys to my best friend or anyone that needs to have a new fence or have it repaired. They matched our fence perfectly. We are very proud of our fence now and so thankful for the job they did."

The average lifespan of a wood fence is 15 to 20 years, but some can last for 40 years or more depending on several factors. The type of wood is crucial; for example, untreated pine may only last 5 to 10 years, while pressure-treated pine can last up to 20 years, and cedar's natural resistance can extend its life to 40 years. Other factors include local weather conditions, with wet and windy climates causing faster deterioration, and the quality of maintenance. Higher-end wood, metal posts, and privacy fence styles also tend to last longer.
Regular cleaning, rust-proof coatings, and checking fasteners help prolong the lifespan.
Since wood is weaker when installed horizontally versus vertically, a horizontal fence is prone to sagging. You can prevent this drooping from happening by building a sturdier fence. Use softwoods that are more stable, such as cedar and redwood, or denser hardwoods for your fence materials. If you can’t afford these pricey materials, use thicker two-by-six pressure-treated pine boards or shorten the span the fence boards have to cover by installing more posts.
The most common type of metal fence today is one made of either steel or aluminum. These materials are relatively easy to fabricate, making them much more cost-effective than traditional metal fencing handmade from wrought iron. They’re also much lighter and easier to install, contributing to their affordability and making them more DIY-friendly.
When it comes to maintenance, vinyl fencing is your best bet for not having to worry about scratches, repainting, or wear and tear from the weather. Vinyl is a material made of polyvinyl chloride (also known as PVC) that can last for years without requiring repairs or maintenance. It’s also one of the lower-cost fence materials to build with.
