"There were some issues with my neighbors just two days before the fence was supposed to go up. Paul was very nice accommodating our issue. The fence looks great and we can now let our dog enjoy the backyard, as can we."

They did an excellent job installing the fence. They made all the right decisions when trouble shooting how to place the fence. The entire staff was polite and finished the job quickly. Would highly recommend them."
"Globe Fence was great to work with! Mike Jr. was responsive in scheduling and sending estimate, and made some very astute suggestions for fence style based on our location and overall aesthetic that were the perfect fit! The team are very responsive, and Debby was exceptionally lovely to work with! On installation day, the crew was prompt and efficient, removing chain link fencing between our property and the neighbors' and replacing two solid cedar privacy panels as well. They diplomatically managed a neighbor with a number of requests, and finished within the day with a beautifully finished new cedar fence! They were also very neat the fencing had to be carried through our home, and they were very careful when doing so, cleaning up when finished! I would highly recommend their team!!"

Some species, particularly willow, may also try to sprout when used green. For these reasons, it’s typically easiest to use branches that have dried for a week or two.

A setback is an area of space between your fence and the property line, meaning you build a fence a few inches before your neighbor’s property begins.
