"Fast response… got estimate next day and job completed quickly!! I had 4 aluminum fence posts around gates that were pulling out of ground. They drove inserts down in ground and placed fence post over the inserts… very cool fix to the problem. I have a nice solid fence again. Thank you, East Ridge Fence. Roman was very nice to deal with!"

"I highly recommend The Finishing Touch by Bratch! Kris did a complete renovation of my kitchen and dinning room totally transforming the functionality and style of the space. He also designed and crafted a custom made wine rack, shelving, and table for my dinning area that are absolutely beautiful and unique. Kris was a pleasure to work with and he respected my personal style while making great suggestions along the way to enhance my ideas or introduce design I never would have thought of. He is extremely professional, on budget, timely, and has an eye for design. I could not be happier with the results and entire experience! I will definitely be contacting The Finishing Touch by Bratch for future renovation needs."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Standard post spacing for shadowbox fences is 6 to 8 feet. This spacing ensures proper support for the heavy weight of overlapping pickets and prevents sagging between posts. However, areas with high winds, slopes, or unstable soil conditions may require closer spacing.

Since wood is weaker when installed horizontally versus vertically, a horizontal fence is prone to sagging. You can prevent this drooping from happening by building a sturdier fence. Use softwoods that are more stable, such as cedar and redwood, or denser hardwoods for your fence materials. If you can’t afford these pricey materials, use thicker two-by-six pressure-treated pine boards or shorten the span the fence boards have to cover by installing more posts.

You'll pay less on average for the cost of a wooden fence compared to aluminum. However, the price highly depends on the type of wood, the fence design, and extra additions like gates and coats of paint. For example, you may pay less to install an aluminum fence since the panels anchor in the ground, whereas wood fences often take longer to construct, especially picket fences.

If 20% or more of your fence is damaged, pros will often tell you that it’s a better use of your money to replace the fence entirely. Severe rotting and insect damage always call for a replacement. However, if you’re just dealing with a few loose posts or a little bit of mildew growth, you can repair the fence.

This depends mainly on how well the posts were installed and what type of wood was used to build the gate in the first place. Softwoods have a life expectancy of up to 15 years but can last slightly longer with regular maintenance and waterproofing treatments. By contrast, hardwoods can last up to 30 years with little care, so you may avoid costly replacements by spending a little more upfront.
