"Manny responded promptly to my initial Angi request, showed up a day or two later to quote and started the project a week later. Everything looks great, and I can't even tell where he made the repair to my chain link fence. High quality work at a reasonable price, and I will recommend Hardrick Fence to others and use them again for any future fence repairs."

"Borderline Fence: Russ and team showed up when they promised and worked steadily until the job was done. They made quick work of a fence in tight quarters and on a small slant and made it look amazing. They were professional and courteous and left the job clean and tidy. They knew their craft and clearly take pride in their work."

"We were contacted by Ergeon from an inquiry through the Angi app. Irving responded almost immediately and was very accommodating when scheduling the estimate. We were able to conduct the entire estimate and discussion remotely, which was a huge plus. Irving was very knowledgeable and put together an excellent, itemized plan that I could take directly to my HOA for approval. During follow up calls, Irving listened to our concerns and offered practical, affordable alternatives. He touched base often without being pushy. We ultimately did not complete the project due to unrelated circumstances, but Ergeon would be our only choice for a full fence install in the future."

Fencing FAQs, answered by experts

There are two things you can do to make a fence replacement easier—but keep in mind that easier doesn’t mean better. First, you can use a jack or some other type of machinery to pull the post out of the ground. If that’s not available, a digging bar can help.

Second, you can backfill the hole with gravel rather than creating a concrete footing. Keep in mind, gravel is less secure. You should only use it if you’re installing a lightweight fence or have heavier, clay soil.

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 bottom strand should sit between 12 to 15 inches from the ground. If you have a problem with small critters, you can aim for 8 inches. Three-strand fences should be 16 to 19 inches apart, four-strand fences should be 10 to 12 inches apart, and five-strand fences should be 8 and 10 inches apart.

The depth of the fence posts depends on the height of your fence. If you’re installing a 6-foot fence, then digging 2-foot-deep holes for the fence posts will help ensure a secure installation. However, if you’re installing an 8-foot fence, the posts will need to be deeper than 2 feet to support the structure properly. Also, consider how far apart the fence posts should be to provide adequate support.

Knowing how close to the property line you can build a fence is an important planning step in your fence installation project. In many U.S. states, you are allowed to build a fence directly on the property line as long as your neighbor signs off on the plan. But check with your state government because some states and municipalities require a couple of inches before your property line.
