"Working with Northland Contracting Systems was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Travis was quick to respond to my inquiry and answered all my questions when he provided a quote. I felt comfortable with him right away because he presented so knowledge and fair in our discussion. We were provided a very reasonable quote and the start date/finish date of the project was spot on to our needs. We've received many compliments on our fence and we love how it looks. I would highly recommend Northland."

"My front door was inoperable since the last freezing day. I got in touch with Aureus Construction and came up with a plan. They evaluated the door and came up with a quote. They were able to get me on their schedule that week. Once they got to my house they looked at the issue as a group and came up with a quicker and more affordable option. They did great work, had great customer service, and I would highly recommend."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again. 

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.

If 20% or more of your fence is damaged, pros will often tell you that it’s a better use of your money to replace the fence entirely. Severe rotting and insect damage always call for a replacement. However, if you’re just dealing with a few loose posts or a little bit of mildew growth, you can repair the fence.

All fences offer some degree of privacy, but standard perimeter fences may not be designed with that in mind. Dedicated privacy fences, however, tend to enclose smaller areas and feature more high-end materials that truly emphasize seclusion and comfort. Additionally, privacy fences typically offer fewer gaps to peek in through than standard fences, though you can likely adjust that to suit your preferences. 

The most affordable metal fence type is wire at just $3 to $5 per linear foot. Wire fences come in a variety of styles and do a good job of marking perimeters and keeping animals in or out of certain areas. While they’re very easy to install and repair, many homeowners find them unattractive, and many homeowners associations won’t allow them.
