"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 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!"

"This review is way overdue — thought I submitted when the job was done last year. (Sorry!) Still very happy with the wood & wire fence installed by Dave and his hard-working crew. Dave is great to work with and he came up with the ideal plan to suit our needs and fit into our challenging property. The fence was installed and finished in a little over two days (and it was not easy); it is definitely worth the money. I will definitely call Dave for future projects."

"They were very slow to complete the project and I needed to follow up quite a few times. Good that the project was an outdoor project and also that I had flexible completion date otherwise, it would have been very messy. Work quality was not up to the mark till I followed up and made them adjust things. The end product is very good."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

You can sometimes install a fence over a gas line. Fence installation typically requires a two-foot depth for posts, so if the lines are shallower than two feet, you cannot put a fence post over the line. You’ll need to call 811 to get the gas lines located and marked before you start the project.

Generally, the height of your dog fence should be 3 times the distance from the ground to your dog’s shoulder. For most small breeds, a 4-foot high fence will be more than enough to keep them from jumping out. Medium-sized breeds like Golden Retrievers, Labradors, and German Shepherds will need at least a 5-6 foot fence to stay contained. Large breeds that are also excellent jumpers, such as Greyhounds, may need a 7-foot high fence. 

The recommended height for a garden fence depends on its primary purpose. For pest control, the necessary height varies by animal. To keep out small pests like rabbits, a fence should be at least two to three feet tall. If you live in an area with deer, you will need a much taller fence, at least five feet high, to prevent them from jumping over. If the main goal is privacy, the fence should be at least seven feet tall. For purely decorative fences, the height is a matter of personal preference.

Yes, fence posts should be set in concrete to provide the proper support for the fence. If you notice your fence posts leaning, you’ll need to learn how to brace a fence post to fix the problem and prevent further damage from occurring. By bracing a fence post properly, you’ll provide stability and sturdiness to your fence for years to come.

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.
