Q: Should fence post concrete be above ground?

• <div><p>Ideally, your concrete should set slightly above ground at an angle sloping away from the fence post. This will add extra support and allow water to run away from the wood fence post. Keeping water out will help prevent wood rot. Additionally, you can add soil on top of the concrete for a seamless finish. </p></div>

Q: Do I need to inform my neighbor I’m building a new fence?

• <div><p>Most homeowners don't need to inform their neighbors before constructing a fence, according to the law, but you will need to make sure that you&rsquo;re building on the property line or on your side of the property line. Otherwise, the neighbor could complain, which would require you to tear down and reinstall the fence. In any case, keeping them in the loop is the neighborly thing to do!</p><p>Whether you inform your neighbors or not, always use property records and a land survey to ensure your fence stays within your property boundaries.</p></div>

Q: How long does a chain link fence last?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: What additional cost factors should I consider when installing a fence?

• <div><p>In addition to the fence itself, several factors can impact the overall price of putting a fence in. Consider these add-ons and necessary expenses when building your project budget. For example, additional cost factors may include:</p><ul><li><p>Removing your existing fence</p></li><li><p>Land leveling and other site work</p></li><li><p>Tree and stump removal</p></li><li><p>New landscaping</p></li><li><p>Working around underground utilities</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/stain-paint-fence-cost.htm">Painting and staining</a></p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What wood is best for a picket fence?

• <div><p>While cedar and pine are two of the most common wooden fence materials, everything from redwood to bamboo is also available. You can also purchase pressure-treated wood, which better withstands water damage and the threat of pests. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-pressured-treated-pine-popular-fence-posts.htm">best wood for your fence</a> will come down to your budget, local climate, and preferred look.</p></div>
