"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

Posts for a horizontal fence should be no more than 6 feet apart. Wood pickets are not as strong when mounted horizontally as when mounted vertically. As such, the fence panels on a horizontal fence can’t cover the same span between posts as a vertical fence can. If you install the posts further apart on a horizontal fence, the fence will lose stability, making the boards more likely to sag. 

Since wood is weaker when installed horizontally versus vertically, a horizontal fence is prone to sagging. You can prevent this drooping from happening by building a sturdier fence. Use softwoods that are more stable, such as cedar and redwood, or denser hardwoods for your fence materials. If you can’t afford these pricey materials, use thicker two-by-six pressure-treated pine boards or shorten the span the fence boards have to cover by installing more posts.

You can keep a dog from digging under a fence by filling existing holes in your yard, installing a wire to your fence bottom, burying your fence bottom, making a designated digging spot, and removing visual stimuli. You can also dissuade your dog from wanting to dig under your fence and escape by scheduling more one-on-one playtime and ensuring they are getting enough exercise to keep them stimulated.

The ideal spacing for four-by-four residential fence posts is usually about 6 to 8 feet between posts. However, if the fence is particularly high or you live in a very windy region, you might want to space them closer together for better stability. A fence pro can help you decide on your post spacing. 

You’ll need to bury the garden fence about 1 foot underground. It’s tempting to save on materials by burying the fence just a couple of inches, but if you do so, determined pests will still be able to dig under the fence and access your plants. Burying your garden fence deep into the soil is an important step that allows you to attach a wire barrier to the fencing. 

Burrowing animals (like voles, moles, rabbits, and gophers) can’t dig or chew through this wiring, meaning that you’ll be keeping your prized petunias or your robust veggie garden from being eaten.
