"York Fence is definitely a professional organization when it comes to customer service, installation and appearance. Their crew was prompt, organized and very methodical when it came to the installation itself. They cleaned up everything afterwards. Literally, there was nothing to be of concern about when this was over. More importantly, we achieved what we were looking for....privacy. I can't say enough good things about York Fence. Definitely a first class company who treats their customers right."

"Excellent all around. Great plan. Great customer service. Fair price. Prompt installation. Fence installed in 1 day with an amazing team that made sure I was pleased with the layout prior to digging. Filled gaps under fence with dirt dug from post holes so my small dog would not escape under the fence. Trimmed some branches and bushes out if the fence line, cut down a small tree leaning over fence line, and removed an old vegetable garden fence. My husband and I could not be more pleased with how the fence turned out. Our neighbors love it. Our dogs love their freedom to run around. Thank you A&W!"

"Maria showed up for estimate within a day of contacting company . She had the estimate emailed to me the very next day . Within 2 days I gave her a deposit and 2 weeks later fence was installed . Met with Julio to go over over everything with him and Maria and they got started . Took 2 days to dig all footing with cement and install fence . It came out so great . I plan on using them next year to put a partial fence in front and side of my property . I would recommend these guys to anyone looking for fencing . The quality of the fence they use looks and feels way stronger then what I saw at stores too."

"Excellent! Another great job by Modern Fence, Mike and crew. Removed old fence and replaced with new decorative fence along driveway in the front yard. We are repeat customers and would use them again for any fencing needs."

"Excellent work and professional. Great experience from start to finish. Everything was done in a timely manner. We had an excellent crew that came out and installed a vinyl fence in our backyard. They were quick and the fence looks wonderful. They were even willing to accommodate our township change request. This is a top notch company for sure!. We would highly recommend PRECISE FENCE!"

"What I loved about this company was that the salesperson was very responsive and was willing to put all terms and conditions in a typed contract. The work was performed as promised in a timely fashion. I obtained 4 other bids and their prices were competitive. In general, I am happy with the installation. The workers were cordial and patient in making adjustments to get the fence to look the way I wanted (my property is slightly hilly). The only caveat is that you should plan to be home to oversee the work as stuff comes up about the positioning of the fence, gates, and the height of the gap over irregular terrain.

"All in one fence company... All I can say is WOW !! Ricardo contacted me from angis list, he was prompt professional and answered hundreds of my questions with courtesy and patience. (In our experience with contractors this is very rare) They took down our old wooden fence and installed a new vinyl one that looks absolutely fabulous. The pricing,quality of work and professionalism is unbeatable !! I have already started to refer All in one Fence to my friends and family."

"I had a great experience with Virtue Fence. I was indecisive about exactly what I wanted in the backyard, and my salesman, Dan, was very helpful in providing options and guiding my decision. I ended up calling him twice with some changes, and he was super patient with me! I felt good about the price, he was very fair and honest, and the installation process was just as positive. It took 2 days and the guys were very nice and efficient. They asked that I be home during installation in case there were issues or questions that came up. They did have some questions, and we talked it through to find resolution, with them providing their recommendations. In the end, I LOVE my new fence and highly recommend Virtue Fence! I have already recommended them to 2 others who are looking for a new fence."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

When deciding to replace or repair your existing fence, consider the 20% rule that fence builders reference. This rule states that if more than 20% of your fence needs repair, you should skip the repair and replace it. Additionally, if your fence is nearing the end of its life, it's often best to replace it.

Repairing the fence is a good option when you have minimal damage or damage from a specific event versus wear and tear. Your fence repair professional can assess the damage and compare the repair price with the cost of a new fence.

When considering how much of a gap should be under a fence or gate, a good rule of thumb is to keep gaps between 2 and 5 inches tall. This allows for some ground clearance for the gate but still provides safety for children and pets, who shouldn’t be able to squeeze through a gap of that size.

Concrete is one of the easiest, most cost-efficient, and most effective ways to stabilize a fence post. To stabilize a fence post with concrete, you’ll dig a hole around the post in question and fill it up with concrete—easy as that. Concrete lasts about 50 years on average, so it’s a long-term solution.

The average lifespan of a wood fence is 15 to 20 years, but some can last for 40 years or more depending on several factors. The type of wood is crucial; for example, untreated pine may only last 5 to 10 years, while pressure-treated pine can last up to 20 years, and cedar's natural resistance can extend its life to 40 years. Other factors include local weather conditions, with wet and windy climates causing faster deterioration, and the quality of maintenance. Higher-end wood, metal posts, and privacy fence styles also tend to last longer.

The standard height for a split rail fence is three or four feet. This height requires two to three horizontal rails, making it ideal for homeowners wanting a budget-friendly split rail fence. If you’re hoping to contain agile livestock or animals like dogs, geese, or goats, you may prefer to install a six-foot tall fence with four or five rails or a four-foot-tall fence with three horizontal rails. This will help prevent animals from climbing, crawling, or jumping through the rails.
