"This company is top notch!!! Our entire backyard fence (360 feet of fence) was destroyed in the hurricane. They were amazing to deal with from the very first phone call. Very responsive in providing their estimate and the wait to have installation performed was not long considering all the work backed up from storm damage. The work crew was very polite and hard working and the quality of the installed fence was excellent. Price was also better than other quotes."

"I engaged Top Rail to fully fence in over an acre and put in two tall privacy fences and gates. From the initial consultation with Terry, to the super responsive feedback and Q&A with owner Drew, to the exceptional on-site communication from Ben, the experience was a 10/10. I would hire them again without hesitation and highly recommend them to anyone. Their work product is outstanding!"

"Terry came to our home the same day that we contacted the company because he happened to be in our area. He was very professional and accurate. He measured our yard, explained our county code requirements. He knew what was required regarding fence height, gates, locks, etc. He gave us an installation date which he met. He arrived with a crew and unloaded all of the materials. It began to rain heavily and he gave his crew the option of coming back the next day. They decided to tough it out and worked through the rain to install a beautiful perfectly level fence! We would recommend All American Fence to anyone and would use them again in a minute!"

"Zech put up our backyard fence shortly after we bought our home. He is extremely professional, and did an amazing job on the fence and all the gates. He finished the job in only two days. We've had the fence up for several months now, already through one tropical storm and it hasn't budged! Would recommend to anyone!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

The recommended height for a garden fence depends on its primary purpose. For pest control, the necessary height varies by animal. To keep out small pests like rabbits, a fence should be at least two to three feet tall. If you live in an area with deer, you will need a much taller fence, at least five feet high, to prevent them from jumping over. If the main goal is privacy, the fence should be at least seven feet tall. For purely decorative fences, the height is a matter of personal preference.

A horizontal fence is typically more expensive to build than a vertical fence, often costing between 10% and 20% more. The higher cost is due to the need for a higher grade of lumber and more posts to prevent the boards from sagging, which increases both material and labor expenses. Despite the higher price, horizontal fences tend to be more durable and offer a more distinct, modern look compared to the more common vertical picket style. However, they may not be the best option for privacy, as there can be slight gaps between the horizontal rails.

You can weather a new wood fence by applying vinegar with steel wool as a way to fade some of the coloring. You may also find it easier to stain your entire fence a new color instead of trying to get newer fence boards to match an older one.

If you’re trying to keep your dog from running away, an electric fence isn’t the only fence type for your yard worth considering. The cost of dog fences can range from $1,500 to $8,000, with popular materials including wood, vinyl, or aluminum to keep your pet safe and sound. 

If you’re trying to keep livestock in their pasture, other fencing options include woven wire, high-tensile wire, and synthetic fencing. These options give your animals boundaries without the use of electricity. 

In most cases, a fence can only be built on your property with your consent. Not obtaining permission constitutes an encroachment and a violation of your property rights. However, exceptions may apply, such as when the fence is entirely within the property boundaries of the person putting it up and the fence complies with local zoning laws and regulations. If you think a fence infringes on your property or is not up to local standards, consult with local authorities or legal experts to address the issue and protect your property rights.
