"This is the third time I have hired Ray. He gets right back to you with a quote. Had him repair a very old chain link fence that was damaged by a large tree, not once, but 2 separate times. . Didn't try to push an entire new fence. The fence looks great and stayed within my budget. Highly recommend."
"If you need a fence, call Superior Fence Co. – you won’t regret it! Paul and his team are simply the best. When we purchased our new home, we knew we’d need a fence for our three dogs—and we didn’t hesitate to reach out to the company we trusted.
This is actually the third fence Superior Fence Co. has installed for us. At our previous home, they handled both a backyard fence and a garden fence, tackling a very wet and steeply sloped yard with incredible skill and care. They truly went above and beyond to make it work.
We couldn’t be happier with the results at our new home. The quality, professionalism, and customer service are unmatched."
"Mark did very high quality work and made it a priority to complete the project by the date we needed it done. The fence looks fantastic! We would hire him again for this or other projects."

"As any caring homeowner knows, it is challenging to find quality help when it comes to home repairs and improvements. In November 2015 I met a team of workers that not only met, but exceeded my expectations. I had originally called for some deck and fence work; some outside repairs, but after seeing the finished product I happily invited them back for more work in-home. Once electrical and plumbing issues were address and resolved I immediately booked them for painting my living room, complete with cathedral ceilings. With great respect to my furniture and treasured possessions, they diligently spent one entire week conscientiously working with attention to detail and improving upon my original suggestions. They were courteous and professional in every way. We will be working on future projects, making my dream home come true."
Yes, installing a picket fence is a manageable DIY project for homeowners with basic tools and some patience. The process involves marking the fence line, digging post holes, setting the posts, and attaching horizontal rails and pickets. However, precision is key to ensure the fence is straight and sturdy, which can be challenging for beginners. If the fence line is long, the ground is uneven, or you’re working with more complex materials like metal or composite, hiring a pro may be a better option.
All fences offer some degree of privacy, but standard perimeter fences may not be designed with that in mind. Dedicated privacy fences, however, tend to enclose smaller areas and feature more high-end materials that truly emphasize seclusion and comfort. Additionally, privacy fences typically offer fewer gaps to peek in through than standard fences, though you can likely adjust that to suit your preferences.
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 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.
Retaining walls offer more value to a home if they also divert water, prevent erosion, or help support a foundation. The ROI of a retaining wall is between 100% and 200%.
Both fences and walls can increase your home’s value, but you’ll spend significantly more on a wall than you would on a fence. A stone wall costs approximately $5,000, a retaining wall costs $6,100, and a fence costs $3,200 on average to put prices in perspective.
