"I called Mine Hill Fence & they responded by text quickly. I texted photos of the damage & got an appointment the following week. Two posts needed to be replaced which required digging on a 95 degree day! Repairs were completely done within 2 hours. They were professional, prompt, and I would hire them again."

"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!"

"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."

"Video call estimate for quote was easy with Victor. The team was thorough in their review ans were fair with estimate prices for the fence. They have warranty which was most important to us, they were very responsive when communicating and the project manager did their best to ensure we had fence up around the dates we were hoping for. They did a great job with fences. Sue and Kirefa were great, and Manuel with his team were very professional and made fence and gate look wonderful."

Fencing FAQs, answered by experts

As with any project or material, installing wrought iron fencing has advantages and disadvantages. Some pros and cons of this fence material include:

Pros

  • Long lifespan with proper maintenance

  • Very durable

  • Aesthetically pleasing

  • Functional as well as decorative

Cons

  • Requires regular maintenance and cleaning

  • Expensive compared to other fence materials

  • Limited privacy

Yes, fence posts need to be installed below the frost line to ensure stability and prevent heaving caused by freezing and thawing cycles. The frost line is the depth at which soil freezes during winter. By placing posts below this line, often around 3 to 4 feet deep or as recommended for your specific region, you reduce the risk of the ground shifting, which can lead to leaning or unstable fences. Adequate depth provides better anchoring and helps maintain the fence's integrity, ensuring it remains secure and upright throughout changing seasons.

Yes, like other types of wood fencing, pressure-treated fence boards can warp. However, there are a few things you can do to reduce the likelihood of your fence warping. Sealing or staining your fence every few years, for example, can protect the wood against moisture, sun exposure, and temperature changes.

If you have the time and the budget, we strongly recommend staining your fence, especially if it's looking a bit tired or hasn't been treated recently. While you may not see the same return on investment (ROI) as you would with a project like a kitchen remodel, staining a fence is one of the best ways to add a facelift to your property—a new fence stain adds serious curb appeal to your home. 

The average cost to install a wrought iron fence is around $3,150, with typical project costs ranging from $470 to $10,500. The final price can vary significantly based on several factors, including the fence's total length and height, design complexity, metal thickness, and your property's topography.

For materials alone, you can expect to pay around $25 to $35 per linear foot. When including installation, the cost is typically between $50 and $70 per linear foot.

Additional factors that can influence the total cost include:

  • Custom designs, decorative flourishes, gates, and columns

  • Labor costs in your area

  • The need for permits

  • Land preparation, such as old fence removal, tree or bush clearing, and land grading

For an accurate estimate, it is best to consult a professional fence installer with the specific measurements and design requirements for your project.
