"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!"

"Alex is a true craftsman He built a 300 foot 6 foot tall privacy fence for us. It has both a small and large gate. He also repaired our vinyl fence and tied it in with the new fence. Alex is kind, prompt, attentive, and competent. He has worked in construction most of his life. He communicated with us well. He also helped with some small additional projects at no cost. I recommend him without reservation. Steve, Hampstead, NC February 2022"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

How long a wood fence lasts depends on the type of wood and its style. The design of a shadow box fence makes it more durable than other fence types because the alternating pickets disperse the weight across the rails. As a result, you won’t have to worry as much about sagging or failing pickets. However, remember that the hollow design of a shadow box fence makes it more difficult to apply the sealer, which is crucial to extending its life.

Do you need a permit to build a fence if you are simply replacing an existing fence? Whether you need a permit in this case depends on your local laws and regulations. Most municipalities consider a fence replacement project as being equal to building a new fence, so you likely will need a permit. Check with your local building inspection department or zoning department to see if you need a permit. If you hire a local fence contractor, this pro can take care of obtaining all permits for you.

There are several privacy fence ideas, including DIY temporary fence ideas. You can try using pallets, which is a great way to add privacy and recycle materials. You can use a traditional square or lattice trellis as a temporary privacy fence, which provides seclusion and allows you to add flowers and climbing vines for a living design element.

Costs depend on material, labor, and additional features like gates or decorative elements.

Whether you need a permit to build or install a fence depends on several factors, including your location, the fence's height, its placement in your yard, and the materials used. In many cities and highly populated areas, a permit is required, especially for fences taller than 6 feet. Conversely, rural areas may have fewer restrictions. Typically, backyard privacy fences 6 feet or shorter do not require a permit, while front yard fences often have a lower height limit, sometimes as low as 3.5 feet. There can also be exceptions for properties in mixed residential-commercial zones. It's best to check with your local building inspection or zoning department to understand the specific requirements, height restrictions, and location rules for your area. A professional fence installer can help you navigate this process and often secure the necessary permits for you, though this may extend the project timeline.
