"Salt Valley Fence Company did an awesome job with my new fence! In the beginning, Matt did multiple quotes for me of variations that I was considering. My fence was up in two days. One day to put up the posts and a week later, they put up the fence. The price didn't waiver from the original quote. I love the outcome, and couldn't be happier with my decision to work with SV Fence Company!"

Had some delays with getting material and weather delays with getting the posts in and pouring concrete, but once they did they got straight to work and got everything done within a couple days, it was a week-week and a half all together to get over 200 feet of fence up! They were extremely affordable, Efficient and showed their experience! Ty was very easy to talk to, his partner derrick was very polite and easy to talk to as well, I am recommending them to everyone who asks!

"Kodiak fencing was fair, reliable, honest and timely. They were transparent and honest about each step and put up a quality fence. I would hire them again."
"Kent Lorenzen, the owner of Elite Fencing, did an outstanding job. An example of his professionalism that pleased me was his promptness in responding to my initial request for an estimate. He was willing to work with me in order to design the type of fence that I wanted. He shared multiple examples via email with me and answered all my questions promptly. I loved the design that I selected and was so pleased because I had other fence companies tell me it wouldn't work. Once the design was determined the remaining process went smoothly with excellent communication. I always knew when they would be arriving and exactly what would be done. The only problem encountered was a delay on the delivery of materials which was not the fault of Elite Fencing; however, when the final bill arrived, he had given me a discount because of the delay. The quality of the work was excellent, the gates installed are beautifully designed with quality hardware, the cleanup was thorough, and the total project was completed exactly as I wanted. I am completely satisfied with the appearance of the fence and also with the courtesy displayed by his employees. Professionalism, integrity, and pride are clearly evident in the work that he did for me. "
The best way to protect your pets from coyotes is to ensure they are always supervised when outside, especially during dawn and dusk when coyotes are the most active. When walking your dog, keep it on a short leash and carry something noisy you can use to haze any coyotes you may encounter.
Lattice should not touch the ground, as it creates a possibility for rot and a termite infestation. It’s best to leave a gap of 3 or 4 inches at the bottom for airflow and to keep the wood dry. You can add stones, bricks, or other decorative pieces to conceal the bottom of the lattice if desired.
In most cases, wrought iron fencing will cause your property value to increase. Most types of fence—but especially high-quality wrought iron fences—make your home more secure and deter burglars, which adds to property value. Fences can also help keep children and pets safe, which most homebuyers will appreciate. Wrought iron fences are also highly decorative, and while they don’t provide much privacy, they do add to your home’s curb appeal, which often leads to higher home value.
Check for gaps or weak spots where your dog could escape and seal them. Remove toxic plants, chemicals, and potentially hazardous items. The list includes cocoa bean mulch, which is harmful to pups if ingested.
It's also essential to provide shade and fresh water. You may want to consider installing a dog-friendly surface on concrete areas like artificial turf. Additionally, regularly inspect for potential hazards, such as sharp objects or broken glass. Most importantly, supervise your dog during outdoor time to ensure their safety.
