"York Fence is definitely a professional organization when it comes to customer service, installation and appearance. Their crew was prompt, organized and very methodical when it came to the installation itself. They cleaned up everything afterwards. Literally, there was nothing to be of concern about when this was over. More importantly, we achieved what we were looking for....privacy. I can't say enough good things about York Fence. Definitely a first class company who treats their customers right."
"Absolutely perfect! Installers were very courteous and professional. Driveways were swept and was a very clean site after they finished! Looks so good thinking about doing the rest of the yard. Maria was very helpful and kept me up to date throughout the progress. Would highly recommend to all those needing a fence!"
"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."
"Excellent. The tree roots had grown into the neighbor's fence which made the job more difficult. Raul was mindful of this and took care not to damage the fence. He was on time for the estimate appointment and for the removal of the stump. He is courteous and professional. I recommend him ."
"I needed my fence repaired quickly and fairly inexpensively. William and his company were great. The work was done in just 4 days and they did an excellent job for the price. My fence had been through several floods and was on its last legs. It is now sturdy again and looks great!.Thanks for the great work!"
"I needed a chain link fence installed. Forever Home Improvement Service came over and measured, made some calls and explained the work. Then they gave me a quote through email. I met with two other fence companies. I chose this company. They were always on time, did exactly what they said they were going to do and charged a reasonable price. The job was done exactly as explained. They were fast and very considerate of our time. I’m very happy with the fence. It was installed so quickly. Everything was very professional. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company. This company was straightforward, honest and reliable."
"We had a few delays because of the rain. But when stopped raining they showed up on time and started the project. They finished the gate next day. Clean up the trash and hauled it away. I would recommend EZHome to have a fence installed."
"Olti and his partner were fantastic! They did a beautiful job repairing my tennis court fence. They came totally prepared f or several ways to fix the repair. I highly recommend this company!"
While picking a standard chain-link fence might be your first instinct, that metal can easily rust over time, making your space look not-so-great. Black chain-link fences are a simple and affordable way to fence in an area of your yard and are also less prone to showing rust than traditional galvanized steel chain-link fences. Plus, black chain-link fencing is a more unique option that can look very striking and elegant when installed properly.
You’ll need to bury the garden fence about 1 foot underground. It’s tempting to save on materials by burying the fence just a couple of inches, but if you do so, determined pests will still be able to dig under the fence and access your plants. Burying your garden fence deep into the soil is an important step that allows you to attach a wire barrier to the fencing.
Burrowing animals (like voles, moles, rabbits, and gophers) can’t dig or chew through this wiring, meaning that you’ll be keeping your prized petunias or your robust veggie garden from being eaten.
Rust, bent or broken bars, loose posts, and weakened welds are common problems that require repair to maintain security and appearance.
In terms of materials, chicken wire mesh will be the most inexpensive option to use when building your fence. The downside is that it’s not the most attractive garden fence option. In a similar vein, you could choose a DIY fence made out of repurposed items, like car tires, or wooden pallets, either of which would be free to collect.
Corrugated metal is a strong, long-lasting material. A corrugated metal fence will typically last several decades, and the metal panels themselves may last for 40 to 60 years. The main thing you should be concerned about is the fence posts. Wood fence posts will last about five years if you purchase them untreated or about 15 years if you treat them after installation. Keep an eye on your posts and look out for insect damage and rot.
