"The quality of work provided was excellent as was their professionalism. A professional contract was given before work began. Provider also coordinated best prices of supplies and coordinated delivery that worked with our schedule. Their prices were fair and lower than other bids we received. The provider also explained how the work would be done and gave clear expectations. It only took them one day to complete and they cleaned up after themselves, not leaving any debris, nails, wood, etc. behind. We were also told to contact them anytime if we had any problems in the future with the work, but I don't foresee that ever being a need. I would definitely recommend this company!!!!!!!"

"I called Mike on a Friday for some help moving three bedrooms of furniture and with cleaning out my attic and an outside closet. They showed up on Tuesday morning bright and early, right when they said they would be here, and they worked continuously the whole time they were here. It took them a little less than two hours to do what I thought was at least a half a days worth of work. I gladly paid the two hour minimum and I believe that it was a great deal. They were careful not to damage anything, and they did exactly what I asked . Their rates are reasonable, and I recommend them wholeheartedly for any size move."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

One of the best features of composite fences is their long lifespan. You can expect your composite fence to last 20 to 30 years. It lasts long because it consists of recycled plastic and wood fibers. The plastic offers durability that wood alone can’t provide. It’s mold- and rot-resistant, as well as weather-resistant.

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 fence materials. 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.

If you have the time and the budget, we strongly recommend staining your fence, especially if it's looking a bit tired or hasn't been treated recently. While you may not see the same return on investment (ROI) as you would with a project like a kitchen remodel, staining a fence is one of the best ways to add a facelift to your property—a new fence stain adds serious curb appeal to your home. 

You have several options for anchoring a temporary fence to keep it from falling down. Sandbags can be used as a standard weight, but they may blow away or fail in strong winds and inclement weather. Spikes and bolts are a cost-effective and easy-to-install alternative, but drilling can be difficult if the ground is frozen, too soft, or too hard. Another option is wind braces, which should be bolted into the ground to withstand turbulent wind; however, like spikes, they can be challenging to install in very soft or hard ground.

Most people prefer to keep the fence level by “stepping” the fence when running a horizontal fence over a slope. Stepping involves raising each panel between the posts as the fence moves over changes in slope, giving the fence line the appearance of stair steps. While this may be the preferred method of running a horizontal fence up a slope, there’s nothing wrong with installing your fence so it follows the undulations in the ground instead.
