"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

One of the best features of composite fences is their long lifespan. You can expect your composite fence to last 20 to 30 years. It lasts long because it consists of recycled plastic and wood fibers. The plastic offers durability that wood alone can’t provide. It’s mold- and rot-resistant, as well as weather-resistant.

You can only change your neighbor's fence with their permission. A neighbor's fence is their property, and altering it without their consent could constitute trespassing or property damage, which may have legal consequences. If you have concerns or disagreements about your neighbor's fence, communicate with them openly and try to reach a mutually agreeable solution. If you believe the fence violates local zoning laws or property regulations, consult with local authorities or seek legal advice to address the issue through proper channels. 

The average cost to install a fence is between $1,800 and $4,500. However, the price can vary significantly based on several factors. For a small DIY project, costs could be as low as $450, while fencing a large property like a 5-acre yard can exceed $43,000. Key factors that influence the total cost include the fence's size and height, the material used, the complexity of the design, site preparation needs, and any additional features like gates. The cost of raw materials, manufacturing, and custom fabrication can also impact the final price.

Posts for a horizontal fence should be no more than 6 feet apart. Wood pickets are not as strong when mounted horizontally as when mounted vertically. As such, the fence panels on a horizontal fence can’t cover the same span between posts as a vertical fence can. If you install the posts further apart on a horizontal fence, the fence will lose stability, making the boards more likely to sag. 

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.
