"The old fence was too far gone for a simple repair, so a replacement fence was built. The new fence looks very good, and is basically the same as the old fence. The workmen were pleasant and easy to work with. I would hire them again for similar work."

"We had hired a different contractor earlier in the year, which left us in a tough spot — significant loss of funds and a badly dug-out area where the patio was supposed to go. Angel came in and completely turned things around. He did an outstanding job, installing a 25' x 20' concrete patio and a 4' high vinyl fence around the backyard. He was reliable, showed up on time, and delivered exactly what he promised. We’re very happy with the results and highly recommend his work."

"Ben and his crew transformed our very high old house with a new paint job. It required a great deal of difficult prep work which was properly completed by his hard-working and respectful crew. Ben had all the equipment to keep his crew safe, and they cleaned up properly at the end of each day's work. At a reasonable cost, the job was completed in about a week. We are very pleased with the final results."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

The depth of the fence posts depends on the height of your fence. If you’re installing a 6-foot fence, then digging 2-foot-deep holes for the fence posts will help ensure a secure installation. However, if you’re installing an 8-foot fence, the posts will need to be deeper than 2 feet to support the structure properly. Also, consider how far apart the fence posts should be to provide adequate support.

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.

Who pays for a new fence between neighbors depends on its location relative to the property line. If you build the fence entirely on your property, you are solely responsible for the costs of installation, maintenance, and repair. If the fence is built directly on the property line, both neighbors are typically responsible for the costs. In this case, it is essential to consult with your neighbor beforehand to agree on a plan for payment. While you should always inform your neighbor of your plans in advance, you generally cannot force them to contribute financially unless there are specific local laws, such as in California, where both parties might be responsible for costs unless a different agreement exists. It's a good idea to get a property line survey to know the exact boundaries before building.

Both nails and screws are common in fence construction, including on pickets. Some builders prefer to use nails when connecting the pickets to the rails and screws when connecting the rails to the posts. However, the best option usually depends on the type of wood fencing and the variety of wood you choose.

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again.
