"Ryan's crew at Shortley Fencing came to install a wooden fence + two gates around our yard. It took about 8 weeks to get him out (due to the pandemic), but I am very glad that I waited. Ryan is a very sincere guy who is attentive to all details. I am an extremely picky person but he met my expectations 100%. I love how the fence looks and the neighbors have been already telling me very positive things about it. I would definitely recommend Ryan and his crew at Shortley Fencing. Yes, it is worth the wait!"

"I thought I wrote a review of this a couple of years ago when the work
was done, but Angie's list has been emailing me for the past few
months to write a review.
Michael Evonich came at my request to make an estimate on installing
handrails on two short sets of steps from the sidewalk to our front porch.
 His estimate was good and we arranged for the job to be done and he
came at the arranged time and installed the handrails as promised in
good time and an excellent job.  We were very pleased with every aspect
 of the job.
It is now so long ago that I don't remember the date nor the cost. 
(It may well have been a lot more than the $200 I posted for this
review).I only know that I was very pleased with the job and with the cost. 
I am wondering if the reason we are now being asked to review this job is
because of the classification used in an earlier review.  Neither
"wrought iron" nor "fences" seems to accurately describe manufacture and
installation of handrails at steps, but those are the two categories
offored for Mike Evonich's services.  Whatever the classification
applicable, we were very pleased with Mike Evonich/Helping Handrail's
services, would use him again for similar or related work, and would
recommend him if someone were seeking those services.

Fencing questions, answered by experts

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.

The type of horse fence that’s most effective in the short term depends on your budget. Plastic fencing works as a temporary fence idea for those on a tight budget but doesn’t offer as much protection. Pipe fencing can be a short-term option as well. Despite its high cost, you can install and remove it easily if you need to relocate your pasture area.

When deciding between fence post foam and concrete, the best choice depends on your specific needs and priorities. Concrete is generally considered stronger and more durable, making it the preferred option for heavy, load-bearing posts. However, expanding foam offers several advantages, such as being more eco-friendly and curing much faster. For smaller fences or those made with lighter materials like vinyl or wire mesh, post foam is a good alternative. While concrete is more affordable, it is also harder to work with and has a longer curing time.

Post depth for shadowbox fences should be at least two feet deep plus an additional foot for every foot of fence height above four feet. For a standard six-foot fence, this means a minimum depth of 3 feet. This depth helps to protect the structural integrity of your fence in the face of wind, soil movement, and seasonal ground shifts

There are many types of wood fencing that you can choose from. For split rail fencing, the most common wood types are cedar, pine, black locust, and chestnut. The best wood for you will depend on if you like the way a certain wood looks and the availability of the wood type in your area.

Most of the wood types you can find at your local home improvement store are good choices since they all have rot-resistant properties or are pressure-treated with pesticides. If none of the wood options speak to the look you’re going for, check out vinyl fencing.
