"Used Angi to provide list of fence companies to replace existing fence. Selected three companies from the list and read all of the services and reviews on each. Jack from Performance Fence called first and we discussed my needs. He was extremely helpful and gave me options with pricing. Within 7 days of meeting him and discussing what I and my wife wanted he had the old fence removed and the new fence installed. I highly recommend his company and his staff. They installers cleaned up my site as if they were never there. Great Job"

"First I have to start with Mike. He is a great salesmen. He full knows his product and also he knows what competitors are offering. This goes from price and the quality of the product they are trying to sell. What he said to me made sense after I had already done research about the different types of fences. We had at least four price quotes prior to Mike coming out to the house. A well informed consumer is the best when dealing with contractors, doing any type of work on your home. After meeting with him we made the decision very quickly to go with his company. They have great follow up to let you know when you are going to be scheduled. They are on time and very clean after they are done. The price was in the ball park of others, and the Angies list coupon was a plus which they honored. I've already referred my neighbor and I will be going back to get front railing. Thanks for everything"

"Installers Henry and Jose arrived on time yesterday (5/4/20) at my residence for an installation of a new 6’ ft stockade fence, they were very respectful of me and my property. The did a great job with the takedown and removal of the old fencing, did a great job with the installation of the new fence installation, left the work area and my driveway clean and made sure that I was happy with everything before they left. I would definitely recommend All Island Fence and would not hesitate to use them again."

"I have used Precision Fence in the past, probably before you could write a review on Goolge. Mike, Tom, and the rest of the crew have always been top notch to work with. Fair pricing, Great product and attention to detail are just a few of the highlights. This time around the new fence we were having installed was on an area of my property that never had a fence before. To avoid problems with my Neighbor I hired a licensed surveyor to identify the property line. Well that went over like a lead balloon and my neighbor had fit. While the PF crew was onsite preparing to install the fence, my neighbor called the cops and claimed Adverse Possession. The PF crew notified Mike who immediately came to the job site to assist. He did not have to do that; he was very professional throughout the entire situation even trying to reason with my neighbor. Unfortunately, it was not resolved so I see civil court in my near future. If you are looking for a great fence contractor look no further Precision Fence gets an A++ with 110% satisfaction from me."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

A horizontal fence is typically more expensive to build than a vertical fence, often costing between 10% and 20% more. The higher cost is due to the need for a higher grade of lumber and more posts to prevent the boards from sagging, which increases both material and labor expenses. Despite the higher price, horizontal fences tend to be more durable and offer a more distinct, modern look compared to the more common vertical picket style. However, they may not be the best option for privacy, as there can be slight gaps between the horizontal rails.

The ideal distance between fence posts depends on several factors, including the terrain, the purpose of the fence, and the material used. For different types of fences, here are some general guidelines:

  • Wood and Metal Fences: Posts should be spaced between 5 and 8 feet apart.

  • Vinyl Fences: Spacing can be between 6 and 8 feet.

  • Chain-Link, Mesh, or Lattice Fences: Posts can be set anywhere from 4 to 25 feet apart, with 4-10 feet being common for chain-link.

  • Wire Fences: Spacing can be up to 12 feet apart.

In most cases, trees need to be protected from deer all year round. This is especially true if you want to protect small trees from deer or if you just planted some fresh, new trees. Once a tree is a few years old, you likely do not have to worry about protecting it from deer as it will be stronger and can handle a little damage.

A chain link fence typically lasts between 15 and 20 years, but with proper maintenance, it can last for 30 years or more. To preserve the fence, it's important to keep the mesh wire tight, which can be done with a come-along tool every 6 to 12 months. Investing in a fence with a galvanized, powder-coated, or vinyl-coated finish can increase its lifespan to 20 to 30 years and reduce maintenance needs, as these coatings provide extra protection against the elements.

If you don’t have a pressure washer or simply don’t want to lug it out of storage, you can spot-clean your wood fence with a garden hose instead. Apply your mild detergent with a soft cloth, scrub with a broom or other soft-bristled brush, and rinse with a garden hose.
