"We hired Southland Structures to build a fence around our backyard, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. James was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, offering several options that suited our needs and budget. He and his crew were professional, attentive, and truly committed to making sure the final result matched our vision. They asked detailed questions, listened closely, and delivered exactly what we were hoping for—if not more. The fence turned out even better than we imagined. To top it off, they started the project well ahead of schedule and completed the entire build in just two days. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend James, his team, and Southland Structures for any project. They’ll be our first call for any future building needs."

"Erik Finley and his assistant Jamie did an excellent job building a 5-ft wide, 68-ft long bridge across part of my lake and building an 8x8 dock on one end and a 5x8 landing with staircase and handrails on the high end of the bridge. Professionalism and customer focus is how his company operates. A joy to work with. I would recommend BNF Construction to anyone who appreciates quality work, attention to detail, and economical price."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

To choose where to add a fence gate, know where fence gates shouldn’t go. For example, you should avoid placing gates over low spots on the ground where water can collect and form muddy puddles. Many ranchers install gates at the corner of a fence. Certain gate placements may also be required depending on the type of gate latch you use.

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.

Yes, fence posts need to be installed below the frost line to ensure stability and prevent heaving caused by freezing and thawing cycles. The frost line is the depth at which soil freezes during winter. By placing posts below this line, often around 3 to 4 feet deep or as recommended for your specific region, you reduce the risk of the ground shifting, which can lead to leaning or unstable fences. Adequate depth provides better anchoring and helps maintain the fence's integrity, ensuring it remains secure and upright throughout changing seasons.

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.

Retaining walls offer more value to a home if they also divert water, prevent erosion, or help support a foundation. The ROI of a retaining wall is between 100% and 200%.

Both fences and walls can increase your home’s value, but you’ll spend significantly more on a wall than you would on a fence. A stone wall costs approximately $5,000, a retaining wall costs $6,100, and a fence costs $3,200 on average to put prices in perspective.
