"By far the best company. I had several companies come out for estimates. Superior Fence was prompt, courteous and had fair prices. Paul and his crew did an amazing job and had my fence done in 2 days. It looks amazing! The quality by far exceeded my expectations."

"2014 they came right away took measurements & gave recommends and then sent us a contract thru email. All done very promptly. Removed & reset both front gates, hung gates, removed & replaced 10' of chain mesh & slats, straightened line post & repaired bottom rail, straightened 18 posts & added concrete, replaced 12' of top, repair & replace done on rusted out gate. Excellent work. They were so good we used them again - said I needed them asap & they said they'd try to get to me same day but might be tomorrow - they came same day. I'll be using them again to close up the fence when all the backyard work is finished."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Pickets should sit at least 2 inches off the ground to encourage groundwater to flow underneath. Pickets can sit as much as 6 inches off the ground, but setting it any higher could let pets in or out of your yard unintentionally. These are not to be confused with the fence posts anchored underground with soil or concrete footing.

The most durable metal for a fence is wrought iron. With proper care, a wrought iron fence can last for centuries. This means regular resealing to stave off rust and corrosion, especially in coastal climates with salty sea air. In these environments, chain link and corrugated fencing tend to stand up better to the elements with fewer maintenance needs.

If you come face-to-face with a wolf in your yard, chances are it will be afraid of you as a human. Make eye contact and get big—waving your arms to increase your size. Use noisemakers or air horns if you have them, or throw a few rocks around to discourage them from approaching you. If all else fails and the wolf does not retreat, back away slowly while maintaining eye contact and find safe ground, whether indoors or up a tree. 

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.

Wire fences are generally the most inexpensive type of farm fence to install, especially compared to lumber. Barbed wire is one of the cheapest options due to its simple materials, making it a good choice for low budgets and for confining docile animals in large spaces. Other options include hog wire and woven wire fences, which are strong, long-lasting, and relatively easy to repair. While wire fences require less lumber and reduce overall project costs, they are often considered less aesthetically pleasing than traditional wood fences.
