"Mike and his crew were very pleasant to do business with. They fixed a broken fence for us and also installed quite a long black chain link along the back of our property. The guys were great with answering any questions we had, and they were here early every morning. We are very happy with the results and with the cleanup. Would highly recommend Macs fencing"

"This company has gone above and beyond what is expected from a company providing a service or purchases. They have very detailed estimates and contracts with no surprises ans the schedule was on point from three weeks out. The workers who showed up on site were very polite and asked my permission for any inconsistency in my land level to make sure I was happy. I used them for fence installation, but they are now on top of my list for all services they offer."

"Our overall experience with EAD was an excellent one. First off we three bid our project and they came in the cheapest. This isn’t always the best thing but in our case it worked out really well. Ernie came to to look at discuss our project on the day and time we agreed on. By the time he left we had a detailed work plan, a quote and a start date if we decided to go with EAD. My wife and I discussed it and called the next day to tell them we had plan to use them. They came within a week (the day we were originally given) and completed the job in one day. Job was a rip roof, and installation of a new sliding glass door. After work was completed the crew was on their hands and knees going through my yard to make sure they didn’t leave any nails or garbage behind. The next day Ernie came back and looked at everything to make sure the clean up was adequate. The trim work he did around the door was excellent as well. I don’t take the time to write reviews often but I really felt for this company I should. I highly recommend them. Thank you EAD!"

"I contacted SouthernEnd Landscaping for leaf clean up and I was blown away. Not a single leaf on my property, even in the areas you wouldn’t have nit picked on if they didn’t address. I was very impressed. I thought pricing up front was reasonable enough but after seeing the work done I realized the value was tremendous and more than worth it. I will definitely use SouthernEnd Landscaping again for yard maintenance needs. Highly recommend."

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.

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.

The ideal distance between fence posts depends on several factors, including the terrain, the purpose of the fence, and the material used. For different types of fences, here are some general guidelines:

  • Wood and Metal Fences: Posts should be spaced between 5 and 8 feet apart.

  • Vinyl Fences: Spacing can be between 6 and 8 feet.

  • Chain-Link, Mesh, or Lattice Fences: Posts can be set anywhere from 4 to 25 feet apart, with 4-10 feet being common for chain-link.

  • Wire Fences: Spacing can be up to 12 feet apart.

If you’re trying to keep your dog from running away, an electric fence isn’t the only fence type for your yard worth considering. The cost of dog fences can range from $1,500 to $8,000, with popular materials including wood, vinyl, or aluminum to keep your pet safe and sound. 

If you’re trying to keep livestock in their pasture, other fencing options include woven wire, high-tensile wire, and synthetic fencing. These options give your animals boundaries without the use of electricity. 

Knowing how close to the property line you can build a fence is an important planning step in your fence installation project. In many U.S. states, you are allowed to build a fence directly on the property line as long as your neighbor signs off on the plan. But check with your state government because some states and municipalities require a couple of inches before your property line.
