"Spencer and company were very responsive from the first time I inquired about a fence for my backyard. Any questions I had were promptly answered all along the way. The fence was actually completed a week ahead of the scheduled day. The construction looks solid, and the materials are of quality. I would recommend AE to anyone."

"The team did a great job and showed fantastic attention to detail. My fencing project was large and covered difficult terrain. They still made it look better than fences a different (very large) contractor installed on flat terrain on nearby properties. I recommend 5 Star Fence to anyone who values quality workmanship."

"I stand by my words when I say All American Fences Inc did an excellent job with replacing my broken fence with the new fence. Nino Vidal and his staff were prompt, professional, and courteous. I appreciate Nino's meticulous estimate and detailed description in the contract. Additionally, he provided a booklet which reflected photos of the fences he completed in the past which helped me decide on the fence style. The project was completed in one day as proposed. Overall, I am highly impressed by the finished work. I will be recommending All American Fences Inc to my relatives, friends and colleagues if they ever need fence work."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

While they can be closer, the maximum distance between fence posts for residential fences is 8 feet. This ensures the panels are adequately supported by the fence posts. This is usually dictated by the width of the panel, which is typically between 5 and 8 feet. While narrower panels will require more posts, they’ll be lighter and easier to work with than wider panels that are the same height.

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.

Corrugated metal is a strong, long-lasting material. A corrugated metal fence will typically last several decades, and the metal panels themselves may last for 40 to 60 years. The main thing you should be concerned about is the fence posts. Wood fence posts will last about five years if you purchase them untreated or about 15 years if you treat them after installation. Keep an eye on your posts and look out for insect damage and rot.

Your wooden gate post hole should be a third to a half of the height of the post. Also, note that the diameter of the post hole should be three times the diameter of the post. You should set the post in concrete to ensure a long-lasting and durable post that will withstand the test of time.

In most cases, you will need a building permit to put up a vinyl fence, especially if the fence is sitting on or close to your property line. You can ask your local building department or  fence installation company if your fence project will require a permit. If so, you can expect it to cost between $20 and $60. Your fence installer should pull the permit for you. Building without a permit could eventually require you to pay again to remove the fence and reinstall it after getting the job approved.
