"I was very impressed with Brian and his crew's attention to detail, repairing my wood fence. Within two hours, the 2 fallen panels were back in place just as good as before the derecho came through."

Customers say: Quality work

"Metro Fence provided us with a detailed map of the measurements of my property, with pricing. They were the least expensive quote of all the ones I had gotten. They took 2 days total to do the work, and the crew was very nice and clean about it. My only concern, was I was not contacted on either day to be told that they were coming. However, I DID order a fence, and that's exactly what I got! In the end, I am VERY happy with my new fence! Great work! Would definitely recommend! FIVE STARS *****"

"Engine 4 Fence did a spectacular job installing the ornamental fence we picked out. They were professional, on time, fair priced, and followed through with the timeline we were given, and were able to finish the project before our original start date. I would highly recommend them to my family and friends. A great local small business to support!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Posts for a horizontal fence should be no more than 6 feet apart. Wood pickets are not as strong when mounted horizontally as when mounted vertically. As such, the fence panels on a horizontal fence can’t cover the same span between posts as a vertical fence can. If you install the posts further apart on a horizontal fence, the fence will lose stability, making the boards more likely to sag. 

A fence post set in concrete lasts anywhere from five to over 25 years, depending on how well the concrete was applied and the fence post’s material. Untreated wood posts in concrete could last less than 10 years, but a durable, treated wood set in properly applied concrete could last a few decades. However, all fence posts will wear out eventually, so expect to need to replace your fence post every five to 15 years.

DIY is feasible with the proper tools and manual labor, though experienced installers ensure durability and precise alignment.

If you hire a fence installer for the project, the time it takes to build a fence is about 20 to 30 hours. Tackling the project yourself will take around 40 to 50 hours. It can take longer if you need to obtain permits, level the ground, remove the old fence, or remove a tree.

A fence gate can sag for several reasons. The issue often stems from the hardware, such as damaged or bent hinges, or loose screws that can no longer support the gate's weight. The gate frame itself might also have come out of square due to failing supports. Alternatively, the problem may not be the gate but the supporting fence post, which could be leaning or out of place. In many cases, fixing a sagging gate is as simple as tightening the hinge screws or upgrading to more robust hinges.
