"It went very smoothly from first contact through job execution. Some neighbors had recommended them as a previous contractor never did the fencing job he had promised. In the end, they were less costly and did a fantastic job."

"We hired Junior to replace a small porch and also a split rail fence. He got the job done very quickly and with great workmanship. The fence is located in a very tight area bordering a difficult neighbor. Junior ensured that the fence was within the property line and avoided creating a dispute."

"Tyler (owner) was extremely proactive to come and review our deck power-washing and sanding and re-stiaining requirements. Very prompt estimate was emailed within under 2 hours! Tyler and his 2 brothers (Steve and Alex) and 4th staff (Torey) came over the next 2 days. Steve and Torey first did a thorough power-washing session. They then expended highly meticulous effort to sand the deck railings and posts - a very extensive and patient process by both Steve and Torey. On the second day Tyler and the Team continued refining the deck sanding as well as doing the floor sanding. The team is very courteous not only to my wife Jacqueline and me (Ron Yannone) but among themselves as well!! They helped each other and Tyler and Steve often gave nice suggestions to the co-workers to enhance the workmanship. The staining process involved using mittens for getting extremely great painting on each rail post - a slow but superb finish. The rail posts look new! The deck is almost 30 years old and looks almost new! While they were finishing the staining of the deck, Tyler addressed a bowing fence issue we had wanted done for 7 years! He completed a creative solution immediately and after a little over an hour had the fence position really well! We instantly hired him to come back to do the roof of our carport. Tyler will get back to us with the estimate and plans for completing the job. Tyler will also address our front steps and help get the correct sealing to preserve it. We are amazed at the patience and professionalism by the TEAM. Tyler has become like a "son" to my wife Jackie - as she is a meticulous individual and we appreciate this and the kind demeanor immensely. The workmanship in what Quantum does is above and beyond what one would expect from a 5-star business."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

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.

The maximum recommended slope on which you can build a racked or stepped fence is 45 degrees. After that, construction becomes quite tricky and may require the use of retaining walls or terraces to make the fenced area flatter.

Black chain-link fences last an average of 15 to 20 years. The thicker a fence's wire gauge, the longer it will tend to last. The black vinyl coating gives the fence rust and corrosion resistance, but its life span may be lower in wet, humid, or coastal climates where moisture or salty air can corrode the coating more quickly.

Ideally, when you replace a fence post, you should also replace the concrete footing. The concrete bonds to your new post, creating a secure base. If you install a new post into old concrete, it won’t be as sturdy.

That said, it is possible. Sometimes the post will lift right out of the concrete. If not, you can use a high-lift car jack to try and lift the pole out of the footing. Put the new post into the same hole and backfill it with fast-setting concrete. Keep in mind, this won’t work well for metal posts.

Staining a fence is less expensive than painting a fence due to the cost of materials and the longevity of the finish. Stain not only lasts longer than paint without chipping or peeling, but you also won’t have to put in the extra time and cost to prime the surface first.
