"Masterpiece Fence Company was fantastic to work with. I needed a gate repaired, the gate got repaired and other work was done. I’ve had my vinyl fence for 15 years, I’ve never been happier with it until now. Pablo fix my gate and every other little issue I had with the fence has also been resolved. I’ll definitely recommend him to friends, family, and my community."

"Montco was one of 3 fence installers we had out to give an estimate on installing a vinyl privacy fence in our yard. Bill (the owner, I believe) came and one of the first things he said was that we should just do wire along the back of the yard instead of vinyl since there is already a wall of evergreen trees there. It would save us a big chunk of money (probably about 2K) and also make the yard feel less boxed in. He was the only one of the 3 contractors to suggest this and it made us feel like he actually cared. He listened to our concerns about keeping the fence as low as possible to keep the dogs in and was the only contractor who seemed fully confident in his ability to get the fence installed on a sizable incline without stepping the panels."

"The installation team was courteous and professional. They connected the back fence to a split rail fence on one side and a chain-link fence on the other while working around several trees on and near the property line. The subtle adjustments around the trees looks amazing. Two sections of fence connect the back corners of the house to the neighbors' fences with a single gate on one side and a double gate on the other. Both gates operate very smoothly and the wire mesh fence was installed almost touching the ground so as to keep the dog safely contained in the yard. We are very pleased with the project."

"Tony and team did an outstanding job. They responded in a timely fashion, actually listened to what I wanted to do, and made recommendations that helped me get the right fence. I was impressed with their responsiveness, the quality of the materials and the excellent work that was done. They worked quickly but without sacrificing quality. They also cleaned up well. Tony and team were easy to work with, flexible and the price was very reasonable."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

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.

Glass fences are extremely strong. You can drop 10mm thick tempered glass on concrete and it wouldn't break. Considering that certain types of glass are bulletproof, glass has the capacity to be exceptionally durable and resistant to breaking. Certain types of glass, like laminated glass, are designed to not shatter at all, but rather break into giant pieces.

Yes, fence posts should be set in concrete to provide the proper support for the fence. If you notice your fence posts leaning, you’ll need to learn how to brace a fence post to fix the problem and prevent further damage from occurring. By bracing a fence post properly, you’ll provide stability and sturdiness to your fence for years to come.

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.
