"AVP Fence did an outstanding job, at a very fair price. Paul was responsive, and the work got done very quickly. Part of the job involved replacing a section of fence, including a corner post, that had been crushed by a large fallen tree. AVP not only made the fence good as new – including replacing the post while the ground was frozen – but they also were willing to cut and and remove the tree to an unused area of our property. All-in-all, as good an experience as one could hope for. In future, AVP is the only company that I'll be calling for any work on my fencing. About a year earlier, we were considering creating an enclosed area in the yard for our dogs. We wound up deciding not to go forward with that project, but I worked with Paul at that time, too. He was incredibly patient with and responsive to changes that we made in the plans, and his proposed price was very reasonable. My experience with him then was so positive that I didn't hesitate to call him else for this later job, and I'm glad I did."
"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 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."
"I had hurricane and tree damage to my fence. Garcia fence company gave me an estimate and the next day they repaired my fence. They are hard workers and did a great job. It only took them 1 day to do the work (I have a big yard). My dogs can finally run in the back yard. Thank you."
"Mr. Serrano’s son, Erick, and his workers did a fantastic job installing the fence. They were prompt and professional. The fence is beautiful and we are pleased with the outcome. We highly recommend Serrano Fence & Son, Inc."

They did an excellent job installing the fence. They made all the right decisions when trouble shooting how to place the fence. The entire staff was polite and finished the job quickly. Would highly recommend them."

Do you need a permit to build a fence if you are simply replacing an existing fence? Whether you need a permit in this case depends on your local laws and regulations. Most municipalities consider a fence replacement project as being equal to building a new fence, so you likely will need a permit. Check with your local building inspection department or zoning department to see if you need a permit. If you hire a local fence contractor, this pro can take care of obtaining all permits for you.
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.
Vinyl and chicken wire are two of the best and most affordable materials for a DIY garden fence. Vinyl is a great option because it is cost-effective, easy to work with, and effective at keeping pests out. A vinyl fence can cost as little as $15 per linear foot, especially if you install it yourself. Chicken wire is even more budget-friendly, costing as little as $2 per linear foot. While chicken wire is more affordable, vinyl is a better choice if privacy is a concern. You can also add chicken wire on top of a vinyl fence for extra security.
While it’s possible to remove a fence post with a truck and requires little physical effort, we don’t recommend this method. You can potentially hurt others or yourself or damage your property or vehicle attempting to take a fence post out with a truck. Instead, use a farm jack or a pole puller to remove the post.
In most states, it is a legal requirement to have a fence around your pool to protect both swimmers and pool owners. These laws can vary by state, city, and county, so you must research the specific regulations in your area before installation. The rules may also differ for inground versus above-ground pools, with inground pools typically requiring a full fence. Additionally, most homeowners' insurance providers will require a fence around a residential pool before providing coverage. As a general rule, it's always best to have a fence for everyone's safety.
