Can you build a stockade fence yourself?

• <div><p>You can DIY a stockade fence installation, but prepare to put in some good sweat equity. For the best results, carefully plan the exact location of your fence before you break ground. In particular, carefully map out your post locations before setting them in concrete. Be sure to call your local utility company before digging to avoid damaging underground wiring and causing severe injury.</p><p>On the other hand, installing stockade fencing on your own might sound too overwhelming. It’s certainly time-consuming and labor-intensive. Besides the hard work, you must install it properly to avoid gaps. Unless you’re confident you can get the job done right, <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/install-privacy-fencing/">hiring a privacy fence installer near you</a> is the way to go.</p></div>

Q: What are alternatives to a snow fence?

• <div><p>One of the best alternatives to a snow fence is to plant a living snow fence of grasses, shrubs, trees, and crops like corn. Another temporary option is using hay bales to create a barrier to disrupt the wind flow, and cause snow to accumulate in specific areas. However, hay bales are not a permanent option, so keep that in mind when choosing what type of snow fence you should install.</p></div>

Q: What type of wood is best for a split rail fence?

• <div><p>There are many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-wood-fencing.htm">types of wood fencing</a> that you can choose from. For split rail fencing, the most common wood types are cedar, pine, black locust, and chestnut. The best wood for you will depend on if you like the way a certain wood looks and the availability of the wood type in your area.</p><p>Most of the wood types you can find at your local home improvement store are good choices since they all have rot-resistant properties or are pressure-treated with pesticides. If none of the wood options speak to the look you&rsquo;re going for, check out vinyl fencing.</p></div>

Q: What is the most popular type of wood fence?

• <div><p>Cedar is the most popular type of wood used for fencing, thanks to its natural durability and resistance to rot and insects. Pressure-treated pine and redwood are also widely used and are popular alternatives. All three of these materials are readily available at most hardware stores, which makes repairs and replacements easier over time. Their accessibility and long-lasting performance make them top choices for those looking to build or maintain a wood fence.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if there is a wolf in my yard?

• <div><p>If you come face-to-face with a wolf in your yard, chances are it will be afraid of you as a human. Make eye contact and get big&mdash;waving your arms to increase your size. Use noisemakers or air horns if you have them, or throw a few rocks around to discourage them from approaching you. If all else fails and the wolf does not retreat, back away slowly while maintaining eye contact and find safe ground, whether indoors or up a tree. </p></div>

Tyler was amazing to work with. He worked in the heat and the next day cold and raining. The fence looks amazing. I plan on hiring him again next summer when I extend the fence further on the property. It is hard to get a company to come up to the Jemez. Very glad Dos Gringos was recommended....

Mr. Cuellar and his crew raised the rock wall between us and our neighbor's yard, lowered the wall between us and the golf course, and repaired (re-mortered) the entire expanse. He did an exceptional job!
