"We highly recommend Shortley Fencing! They were very affordable and did a great job. They installed aluminum fencing as well as a wooden privacy fence, and tore out all the old fencing. We did have to wait longer than the 6-8 weeks they told us from when we signed the contract. And there is mud left in our driveway and on an outdoor area rug. But overall we are very pleased and so are our two dogs 😊"

"Used Angie’s list because I needed help finding a good contractor for a wooden fence. They helped me find Franks Landscaping. Franks was great. They helped me plan out a fence that would be functional and look great. Their pricing was the best around and they had the fence done within a week from the day I got my estimate. Fence ended up looking better than I imagined. If you want a reliable contractor that cares about quality then hire Franks Landscaping."

"I needed someone to do a major brush removal and some tree trimming. I contacted 3 landscaping services for my project prior to finding Betschart on HomeAdvisor. Brian at Betschart was the only one to respond to me, and he did so within a few hours of my inquiry. We met at the job site within 2 days, and he sent me an estimate that evening. (Tuesday.) We spent the next 2 days emailing the contract back and forth, and on Friday he told me they would begin the work either Monday or Tuesday. They were there on Monday, and the total job took 4 days to complete. The workers were efficient, fast to respond to any requests that I made, and did an overall excellent job of clearing and removing some large overhanging tree branches, and a awful lot of brush from around the house, the garage, and other areas on the property. They ground out the stumps, and did a very good job cleaning up and removing the debris. I highly recommend Brian and his group! Once I am ready to clean up the rest of the property, this is the only call I will make."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Split rail fencing is a type of post and rail fencing. Other post and rail fences include corral board and post and dowel. Post and rail fencing is the term used for any type of fence with vertical posts, horizontal rails, and nothing else (specifically excluding pickets). So, technically, a split rail fence is a post and rail fence.

The depth of your post hole depends on your post length. If you decide on a two-rail fence, the posts are likely 6 feet long. You want your hole to be at least 1/3 of the post length. In this case, your post hole should be two feet deep.

If you opt for a three-rail fence, the posts will typically be 7 feet long, meaning your post hole should be 28 inches deep.

Yes, like other types of wood fencing, pressure-treated fence boards can warp. However, there are a few things you can do to reduce the likelihood of your fence warping. Sealing or staining your fence every few years, for example, can protect the wood against moisture, sun exposure, and temperature changes.

A bamboo fence can last up to 20 years when properly installed and maintained. Bamboo is a durable material, but to get the most life out of it, you should clean and seal the fence every few years. Staining the bamboo can also restore the appearance if the color fades over time. Use screws to fasten the bamboo, rather than twine, to ensure the bamboo fence stays together longer.

Maintain your wattle fence by inspecting it at least twice per year for loose weaving and degrading branches. Replace any seriously degraded sections, ensure water drains properly around the posts, and trim any sprouting branches if you used green wood. If you notice the weave loosening, you can often tighten it by gently pushing down on the top branches. You can also apply a natural wood preservative every two to three years to extend the fence's lifespan.
