"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!"
"Oscar did a great job repairing my wood fence. He went out of his way to get the correct posts to match the rest of my fence replacing 3 posts and re-attaching 5 sections of fence to the new posts. My fence is now set for many years to come!"
"There are a lot of choices on what you can do on a home for “projects”. The best decision I made in 30 years was to fix our dilapidated fence. So I had choices! Lots of choices. I was guided to Ruben at M & R Fence company and am so thankful for the recommendation that I wanted to do the same for someone else who is thinking of putting up a new fence or replacing an old one. They exceeded our expectations. Off the charts exceeding. So look no further."
"I have hired Major Way Fencing several times to repair our wood fence. Between the wind and storms we needed help. Timely and fair pricing. They do what they say they will do when they say they will fix it. I will never use anyone else."
"The project was top notch. Not only did they consistently show up on time, but they finished the project early and were willing to reschedule the final walkthrough multiple times to accommodate our schedule. Final project turned out great! They worked efficiently and paid close attention to details. The price was way below the competition. I have received many compliments."
"Professional, responsive, and easy to work with. The quality of the work was excellent, and everything was completed promptly and efficiently. I would highly recommend their services."
A wrought iron fence is generally considered a worthwhile investment, provided the cost fits your budget and its characteristics meet your needs. While it is an expensive material, its exceptional durability and longevity mean you can save money over time by not having to replace it.
Key benefits include:
Durability and Security: Wrought iron is strong and provides excellent security for your home.
Longevity: With proper maintenance, it can last a lifetime or longer.
Aesthetics: It offers a classy, timeless, and elegant look that can boost your home's curb appeal and property value, especially when complementing brick or stone architecture.
However, it's important to note that wrought iron fencing does not offer much privacy. If professionally installed and maintained, it is a sound long-term investment.
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.
Yes, installing wrought iron fencing will usually require a building permit, as do all types of fencing. Building permits for wrought iron fencing typically cost between $150 and $500, and the price will vary based on where you live and how much your local building department charges. You may also need to pay for a property survey if you’re installing wrought iron fencing on your property line. This type of survey can cost around $500, but it prevents issues with building on neighboring properties, which can be much more expensive in the long run.
Available customizations include color choices, textures, gate additions, and decorative toppers to fit various design preferences.
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.
