"Very well. Gary was very good to deal with. His quote for the job came in over 30% lower than another Angi-recommended contractor. The laborers worked very hard over two days, especially digging out and putting in posts. We didn't deal with them too much but they did a great job and the fencing looks good."

"They did an amazing job. Their field man came, Mike, came out twice, to figure out how to install the hand rail. The second time he brought his boss with him. He devised a design which was far superior to what was originally contemplated. And cheaper as well. All-Type-Fence worked with the township to obtain the necessary permit. Mike noticed in the township's original instructions that the fence would have to be set back 6 feet from the sidewalk. Mike contacted me and suggested the township property drawings probably had an error. So I contacted them, and after looking into it, Mike was right ! So we were able to put the fence closer to the sidewalk, realizing a much better look. Brenda in their office coordinated everything very efficiently making the entire project painless for us. The work was completed on the day agreed to and is of very high quality. We are delighted and can recommend All-Type-Fence to anyone. Best contractor we have ever used."

"I had a positive experience with Ergeon Fences. Their customer service is outstanding; everyone I talked to was friendly and professional, and their price was very competitive. Installation was quick and professional. I would like to thank Diana, the project manager, for keeping me informed at all times. I love the fence! If you're looking to install a fence, I highly recommend Ergeon Fences."

"Top Rail Fence did such a great job with installing our new fence. Picking a company for such a big job was overwhelming, but after talking to them, my husband and I felt very confident. They were so polite and answered all our questions and their pricing was fair. I did a lot of research and comparing because I really wasn?t sure the cost. The workers arrived on time and they had it completed when they said they would, which was important to us! Very happy with our decision!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

A high-quality wrought iron fence is one of the most durable options available and can last a lifetime, or even centuries, with proper care. However, wrought iron is susceptible to rust and corrosion if not maintained.

To maximize its lifespan, regular maintenance is required. This includes:

  • Cleaning the fence with soapy water every six months.

  • Scrubbing away any rust or corrosion as soon as it appears.

  • Applying a new coat of paint or refinishing the fence every few years to protect the metal from moisture and oxygen. The recommended frequency varies, with sources suggesting anywhere from every 1 to 10 years.

If significant rust develops, it's wise to hire a professional fence repair company to clean the rust and reseal the fence. The cost to refinish a fence is typically between $5 and $12 per square foot, a worthwhile investment to ensure its longevity.

Glass has one of the longest lifespans of any fencing materials, lasting anywhere from 10 to 30 years on average. Just how long your glass fence lasts depends on several factors, including how well you maintain your fence, the climate, and the type of glass you use. 

If you live somewhere with severe weather like hail, tornadoes, or hurricanes, expect your glass to have a shorter lifespan. Pool glass is one of the thickest tempered glass materials and may last longer than other options—especially compared to laminated glass.

Regular cleaning, rust-proof coatings, and checking fasteners help prolong the lifespan.

A chain link fence typically lasts between 15 and 20 years, but with proper maintenance, it can last for 30 years or more. To preserve the fence, it's important to keep the mesh wire tight, which can be done with a come-along tool every 6 to 12 months. Investing in a fence with a galvanized, powder-coated, or vinyl-coated finish can increase its lifespan to 20 to 30 years and reduce maintenance needs, as these coatings provide extra protection against the elements.

The ideal distance between fence posts depends on several factors, including the terrain, the purpose of the fence, and the material used. For different types of fences, here are some general guidelines:

  • Wood and Metal Fences: Posts should be spaced between 5 and 8 feet apart.

  • Vinyl Fences: Spacing can be between 6 and 8 feet.

  • Chain-Link, Mesh, or Lattice Fences: Posts can be set anywhere from 4 to 25 feet apart, with 4-10 feet being common for chain-link.

  • Wire Fences: Spacing can be up to 12 feet apart.
