How do you keep a horizontal fence from sagging?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-wood-fencing.htm">fence materials</a>. 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. </p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a fence and a privacy fence?

• <div><p>All fences offer some degree of privacy, but standard perimeter fences may not be designed with that in mind. Dedicated privacy fences, however, tend to enclose smaller areas and feature more high-end materials that truly emphasize seclusion and comfort. Additionally, privacy fences typically offer fewer gaps to peek in through than standard fences, though you can likely adjust that to suit your preferences. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to install a bamboo fence?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-it-take-to-build-fence.htm">How long it takes to install a fence</a> depends on the size of the fence; the longer the fence, the longer the install will take. That said, you can typically install a bamboo fence over a weekend for a reasonably sized yard. A team of fencing contractors can likely get your bamboo fence assembled in half a day to a day. </p></div>

Q: Who pays for a fence between neighbors?

• <div><p>Who pays for a fence between neighbors depends on where the fence falls in regard to the property line. If the fence is completely on your property, you&rsquo;ll have to pay for its installation, maintenance, and repair&mdash;even if it&rsquo;s close to your neighbor&rsquo;s side. If the fence falls directly on the property line, each neighbor is responsible for its costs. It&rsquo;s a good idea to know your property lines before building a fence. If you want to build a fence on the property line, you must consult with your neighbor to work out a plan on who pays and how much.</p></div>

Q: Does wrought iron fencing increase your home value?

• <div><p>In most cases, wrought iron fencing will cause your property value to increase. Most types of fence&mdash;but especially high-quality wrought iron fences&mdash;make your home more secure and deter burglars, which adds to property value. Fences can also help keep children and pets safe, which most homebuyers will appreciate. Wrought iron fences are also highly decorative, and while they don&rsquo;t provide much privacy, they do add to your home&rsquo;s curb appeal, which often leads to higher home value.</p></div>
