"Excellent all around. Great plan. Great customer service. Fair price. Prompt installation. Fence installed in 1 day with an amazing team that made sure I was pleased with the layout prior to digging. Filled gaps under fence with dirt dug from post holes so my small dog would not escape under the fence. Trimmed some branches and bushes out if the fence line, cut down a small tree leaning over fence line, and removed an old vegetable garden fence. My husband and I could not be more pleased with how the fence turned out. Our neighbors love it. Our dogs love their freedom to run around. Thank you A&W!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Raymond is more than deserving of all the accolades I have seen in other customer reviews. He took on a very large vinyl fence installation project for me on a piece of property that could best be described as very challenging, and did a superb job. He worked closely with me on every detail. He took all my concerns very seriously and made many valuable suggestions on what would work best visually when dealing with changes in elevation, angled corners, etc. All his recommendations worked out extremely well and the completed job turned out much better than I had hoped. In addition, he took great care to prevent any incidental damage to my property, which is something I feared a larger company using heavy equipment would do. In sum, I can't think of any contractor in any trade with whom I have done business in 35 years as a homeowner that I would recommend more highly."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

When deciding to replace or repair your existing fence, consider the 20% rule that fence builders reference. This rule states that if more than 20% of your fence needs repair, you should skip the repair and replace it. Additionally, if your fence is nearing the end of its life, it's often best to replace it.

Repairing the fence is a good option when you have minimal damage or damage from a specific event versus wear and tear. Your fence repair professional can assess the damage and compare the repair price with the cost of a new fence.

The lifespan of wire fencing heavily depends on factors like gauge, material, coating type, and environmental conditions. However, with proper maintenance, many wire fences last for 20 to 30 years. Coastal areas or regions with high rainfall may see reduced lifespans of 10 to 15 years due to increased corrosion risk.

Hedges are a better financial investment for a home than fences in several ways. First, hedges are less expensive to install than fences. Fence installation costs $1,775 to $4,600, depending on the type and size. You can also choose to plant smaller and less expensive hedges, knowing that it will take longer for them to mature. Next, mature hedges add resale value to the home, meaning the cost savings get even better when it's time to sell.

A barbed wire fence will last an average of 15 to 20 years, but the life expectancy can range anywhere between five and 50 years. Thicker wires last longer, as do fences made with galvanized metal. If the barbed wire fence is in a climate with harsh winters and summers, it likely won’t last more than 10 to 15 years. Failing to keep up with maintenance and repairs will also shorten the lifespan of a barbed wire fence.

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.
