Q: What is the best style of vinyl fence?

• <div><p>The best vinyl fence style for your yard depends on your needs, form and function-wise. For example, a classic vinyl picket fence in your front yard helps contain kids and canines while offering views of your neighborhood. But a more expensive privacy fence creates a secluded backyard oasis for family gatherings. Opt for a ranch-like post and rail vinyl fence if you want to carry on your rustic farmhouse vibes.</p></div>

Q: How high should a dog fence be?

• <div><p>Generally, the height of your dog fence should be 3 times the distance from the ground to your dog&rsquo;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. </p></div>

Q: Do shadow box fences last longer than other fence designs?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-wood-fencing-last.htm">How long a wood fence lasts </a>depends on the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-pressured-treated-pine-popular-fence-posts.htm">type of wood</a> and its style. The design of a shadow box fence makes it more durable than other fence types because the alternating pickets disperse the weight across the rails. As a result, you won&rsquo;t have to worry as much about sagging or failing pickets. However, remember that the hollow design of a shadow box fence makes it more difficult to apply the sealer, which is crucial to extending its life.</p></div>

Q: What wood is best for a picket fence?

• <div><p>While cedar and pine are two of the most common wooden fence materials, everything from redwood to bamboo is also available. You can also purchase pressure-treated wood, which better withstands water damage and the threat of pests. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-pressured-treated-pine-popular-fence-posts.htm">best wood for your fence</a> will come down to your budget, local climate, and preferred look.</p></div>

Q: Does electric fencing use a lot of electricity?

• <div><p>Electric fences use very little energy and shouldn&rsquo;t cause any surprises on your next energy bill; You may only notice an extra couple of dollars on the bill. While electric fences don&rsquo;t consume much energy, they still need it. If you have a power outage after a storm, your electric fence will likely stop working.</p></div>

It was a disaster. If they would have done the work correctly the 1st time, caulking before painting, they did not have to do the work over 3 times! They wasted almost weeks of my money and time. The workers were not punctual or professional! The didn't show up 2 days without letting me know and...

Awesome. The estimate with Erik was great- he asked a lot of important questions that I hadn't considered. I'm attached on both sides, so placement matters. Also, we discussed the grading of my property, as it slants to the side. I have a very difficult schedule, but he was able to get the...
