"Miquel was awesome from start to finish with our fencing job!!! He was out visiting our property within a day of me contacting him and had a formal quote a day or 2 later; our fence came earlier than expected and we are so happy with it! I can’t recommend Miquel enough ??. Fabulous service from start to finish!!"

Customers say: True professional

"Mike , from Capital Fence went above and beyond on our fence. The initial meeting going over the measurements and picking the proper PVC Vinyl fence. Mike made a few suggestions on high and placement which made complete sense. His crew was professional and courteous and cleaned up after they were finished with the fence. I would suggest Mike from Capital Fence to any of my family and friends. They are truly a professional and courteous company who care about the finished product. A1 service - we love our new fence !!"

"I hired Tom (owner of Family Fence) to put up a vinyl fence in my back yard. His prices were very reasonable and Tom did a great job installing my fence. It was done in a timely manner and I am pleased with the outcome! I would definitely recommend this company!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Pickets should sit at least 2 inches off the ground to encourage groundwater to flow underneath. Pickets can sit as much as 6 inches off the ground, but setting it any higher could let pets in or out of your yard unintentionally. These are not to be confused with the fence posts anchored underground with soil or concrete footing.

Posts for a horizontal fence should be no more than 6 feet apart. Wood pickets are not as strong when mounted horizontally as when mounted vertically. As such, the fence panels on a horizontal fence can’t cover the same span between posts as a vertical fence can. If you install the posts further apart on a horizontal fence, the fence will lose stability, making the boards more likely to sag. 

How long a fence lasts, including a split rail fence, will depend on the material from which it’s made. The average lifespan of a wood fence is about 15 to 20 years. However, split rail fences made out of premium materials, like composite, vinyl, steel, or aluminum, can last for 25 to 30 years or more, especially if you take good care of the material and carry out necessary maintenance.

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.

Electric fences use very little energy and shouldn’t cause any surprises on your next energy bill; You may only notice an extra couple of dollars on the bill. While electric fences don’t consume much energy, they still need it. If you have a power outage after a storm, your electric fence will likely stop working.
