"I like working with Casey a lot. He comes across as a very honest hard worker. Our project is not quite finished yet but I am quite positive that Casey will make sure things are 100% to my liking before he's done with the fence. The biggest relief to me was that I can take Casey for his word and not have any doubts. I would and will highly reccomend him to anyone I know that has a project they need help with. It is rare these days to meet such a dedicated person and I greatly appreciate his positive attitude towards his work. You can trust him to get the job done even when you are away from the house. He really seems to want to grow his business and it shows in the way he deals with his clients. No job seems too big or small and I greatly look forward to him working with me on other projects. God gave this man a calling to heal your land so take advantage of his gifts and knowledge, he will surely not disappoint you. Thanks so much for all your hard work!"

"Everything went exceptionally well.  The job was done professionally and quickly.  He and his assistant kept at it til the job was done--I don't recall their even taking a break.  This was amazing since all the work was on the second floor and they both had to make innumerable trips up and down the stairs!!  He used the best equipment for the job and gave us a very reasonable price for all the work done.  Now our storage problems are solved, and we are very happy!  I would recommend Mr. Saylor to anyone for any kind of repair, remodeling, or whatever is needed.  He is honest and friendly and has the expertise to do whatever you need done.  We are very fortunate to have found him and his company to help us out and would not consider calling anyone else to do whatever we need done!

Fencing questions, answered by experts

You can use pressure-treated wood for a horizontal fence, but you’ll need to purchase a thicker and higher-quality variety to ensure it doesn’t sag or warp after you install it. Use #2 pine grade lumber and boards and thicker dimensional lumber, such as a two-by-six. You’ll also need to use stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners, as the chemicals in the treated lumber will cause regular galvanized fasteners to rust. 

When deciding to replace or repair your existing fence, consider the 20% rule that fence builders reference. This rule states that if more than 20% of your fence needs repair, you should skip the repair and replace it. Additionally, if your fence is nearing the end of its life, it's often best to replace it.

Repairing the fence is a good option when you have minimal damage or damage from a specific event versus wear and tear. Your fence repair professional can assess the damage and compare the repair price with the cost of a new fence.

It is almost always necessary to hire a land surveyor near you to ensure your fence sits on the right side of the property line. Mistaking the shape of your property can lead to fines and costly changes if you have to move or adjust the privacy fence—not to mention some surly looks from your neighbor. We recommend jumpstarting your fence planning in the spring to ensure there is plenty of time to map out your plan before construction season.

There’s no definitive answer to this question because dog owners and experts are conflicted about the efficacy and morality of electric fences. However, physical fences are typically considered a better option since they provide guaranteed containment for your pup, provided they are tall enough, and your dog can’t dig under them. Physical fences can also provide privacy, which might stop your dog from barking at people or animals walking by. Physical dog fences tend to be more expensive, but most homeowners find them to be a better option overall.

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.
