"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!!"
Split rail fencing is a type of post and rail fencing. Other post and rail fences include corral board and post and dowel. Post and rail fencing is the term used for any type of fence with vertical posts, horizontal rails, and nothing else (specifically excluding pickets). So, technically, a split rail fence is a post and rail fence.
In the vast majority of cases, chain-link fences are less expensive than wood fences. Installing a wood fence costs anywhere from 20% to 30% more than a chain-link fence, or an average of $3,100, whereas a similarly sized chain-link fence will average around $2,400. Even with add-ons and additional protective finishes, a chain-link fence is very likely to cost you less than a wood fence. The only exception would be a split rail wood fence, which can cost about half the price of a chain-link fence or less.
Fences made out of redwood, cedar, or pressure-treated pine are the most durable. These materials can last anywhere between 15 to 40 years so long as they are properly maintained. Make sure to clean your fence regularly and pressure wash once a year. After pressure washing, apply a sealant and/or fresh paint to keep it looking fresh.
You'll pay less on average for the cost of a wooden fence compared to aluminum. However, the price highly depends on the type of wood, the fence design, and extra additions like gates and coats of paint. For example, you may pay less to install an aluminum fence since the panels anchor in the ground, whereas wood fences often take longer to construct, especially picket fences.
