"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 Kevin Riel to install a chain link fence in our yard for our new puppy. We requested a quote based on the excellent reviews and we were not disappointed. The quote was scheduled promptly. He kept in touch via text and came when expected. He was super easy to talk with, and help figuring out what we needed and discussing the pro and cons of different materials and locations of the fencing. No hard-sell, just solid information. He gave us a place in his schedule of upcoming jobs but let us know he would do what he could to get us in sooner - which he did! Kevin and his son showed up on time and did beautiful work, ahead of schedule. We are delighted with the fence, and with the overall service and value. We will call Kevin anytime we need fencing and would confidently recommend him to friends and neighbors."

"It is hard to find good, honest and affordable handyman who is willing to take up small projects. Junior was hired to fix a broken fence panel. No other person would take up the work because it was too small a job. Junior came in, offered to do the work and finished very timely. He even picked up material for Home Depot and gave me the receipts. I ended up getting landscaping and bedroom painted with him as well. Would definitely hire him again."

"Chris, from Fence Appeal, and his staff are the consummate professionals. Chris is extremely conscientious and hard-working. HIs word is his bond. He was always on time and the project was completed as promised and right on schedule. It was a difficult remodel and repair of an aging Walpole cedar fence, but he and his experienced team were up to the challenge and the results are simply beautiful. Fence Appeal (Chris) also prices their jobs fairly. We're extremely pleased!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

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.

You have several options for anchoring a temporary fence to keep it from falling down. Sandbags can be used as a standard weight, but they may blow away or fail in strong winds and inclement weather. Spikes and bolts are a cost-effective and easy-to-install alternative, but drilling can be difficult if the ground is frozen, too soft, or too hard. Another option is wind braces, which should be bolted into the ground to withstand turbulent wind; however, like spikes, they can be challenging to install in very soft or hard ground.

Green branches are more flexible and easier to work with, but they'll shrink as they dry, which can loosen your fence weave over time—so you'll need to weave them extra tight to account for shrinkage. Some species, particularly willow, may also try to sprout when used green. For these reasons, it’s typically easiest to use branches that have dried for a week or two.

To effectively keep animals out of your yard with a fence, choose a fence that anchors to the ground to deter digging. Also, consider adding a barrier below the fence to prevent burrowing. 

To make your yard less desirable to animals, eliminate food sources like a vegetable garden, and ensure your garbage cans are sealed and tamper-proof. Installing motion-activated devices like lights or sprinklers will startle animal intruders. Also, a fence won’t work well if you forget to keep gates closed and secure. If you still face persistent animal intrusion issues, contact a wildlife control expert who can offer specialized solutions.

Wattle fences are typically around 4 feet tall, but they can be built taller or shorter depending on their intended use. Taller fences may require additional reinforcements, such as thicker posts or tighter weaving, to ensure the fence’s stability and durability against wind and other elements.
