"If you need a fence, call Superior Fence Co. – you won’t regret it! Paul and his team are simply the best. When we purchased our new home, we knew we’d need a fence for our three dogs—and we didn’t hesitate to reach out to the company we trusted. This is actually the third fence Superior Fence Co. has installed for us. At our previous home, they handled both a backyard fence and a garden fence, tackling a very wet and steeply sloped yard with incredible skill and care. They truly went above and beyond to make it work. We couldn’t be happier with the results at our new home. The quality, professionalism, and customer service are unmatched."

"Jeorge is easy to work with. He is a straight shooter and keeps you informed. He even shored up some gutters as he was replacing the soffits. The work went smoothly in spite of several periods of rain. The quality of the work is very good. He and his helper worked quietly - no music or cursing. I would definitely consider him for any other construction related work."

"He is very polite, on time and when he comes he will ask how I want the snow removed. However, a couple days ago, it snowed and when I went to get in my car that morning realized he had already been out to the house. Because the snow was already removed. So, he had to of come extremely early to get this done before I left. He was very quiet. I recommend him to everyone, I think he does a great job."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Maintain your wattle fence by inspecting it at least twice per year for loose weaving and degrading branches. Replace any seriously degraded sections, ensure water drains properly around the posts, and trim any sprouting branches if you used green wood. If you notice the weave loosening, you can often tighten it by gently pushing down on the top branches. You can also apply a natural wood preservative every two to three years to extend the fence's lifespan.

Installing an aluminum fence typically takes one to three days, depending on the fence's size, layout complexity, and site conditions. Simple, straight-line installations may take just a day, while larger or more intricate designs with slopes or obstacles can extend the timeline. Professional contractors often complete the job faster than DIY installations.

You have several options for anchoring a temporary fence to keep it from falling down. Sandbags can be used as a standard weight, but they may blow away or fail in strong winds and inclement weather. Spikes and bolts are a cost-effective and easy-to-install alternative, but drilling can be difficult if the ground is frozen, too soft, or too hard. Another option is wind braces, which should be bolted into the ground to withstand turbulent wind; however, like spikes, they can be challenging to install in very soft or hard ground.

The average cost to install a fence that is 200 feet in length is $4,600, but this largely depends on the type of fence you build. For instance, a 200-linear-foot redwood fence costs between $3,600 and $7,000.

Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can help your wood fence last 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You’ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.
