"I worked with Joe fall of 2020 to install a post and wire fence on my property with four board fencing along the road frontage. In bidding the project I reached out to six different fencing contractors in CVille and the surrounding area - Joe was BY FAR the most responsive and easiest to work with. After hashing out the project details via email and phone he promptly did a walk down of the property and generated a bid his prices were competitive with bids I received from the other contractors. On the first day of the install, Joe and his crew did an excellent job walking the project with me to ensure the fence line details were just what I wanted. The back corner of the property is somewhat complex with a stand of trees we wanted to keep intact. This crew did a great job working through the tight space and we were able to keep all the trees. My wife and I are both so pleased with the final result and could not be happier with the aesthetic improvements and function the fencing brought to our property! Joe was timely and supremely easy to work with during the entire process from initial project discussion, bid generation, fence detail negotiations, installation, and quality control/final inspection upon delivery. We can not recommend Joe enough!"

"We had a tree that needed to be removed and talked with them in Sept. There were a few delays and then we had to be out of town for about 6 weeks. The project was put on hold until we returned. The tree fell 4 days after we returned. It took quite a bit of planning and cooperation of neighbors as the tree had been wedged in one of their trees down a rather steep slope. A lot of planning was needed to make this very large oak tree safe. The beech tree it was caught in will hopefully survive as one main branch had to be removed and the other one was cut down closer to the v of the tree. A small crane was brought in so that he could access the tree. Little to no damage happened with the use of this. The clean up was well done and nice small logs were stacked neatly for the neighbors who got lots of wood to burn. They even fixed our chainlink fence that had been bent by a branch that had fallen way before the tree fell. The tree fortunately came down across a small creek and now makes a bridge across it for anyone with decent balance. Way too difficult and expensive to get the very long main trunk out. Enjoyed talking with him after the project was completed. Price was reasonable also."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

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’re part of a homeowners association (HOA), you’ll need to speak with them regarding your fence repairs prior to starting work. Sometimes, you’ll need HOA approval to start repairs and ensure that the completed project meets their standards. In other cases, direct approval might not be required to start the project. Speaking with your HOA first will help avoid any unnecessary fines and headaches.

Whether you need a permit to build or install a fence depends on several factors, including your location, the fence's height, its placement in your yard, and the materials used. In many cities and highly populated areas, a permit is required, especially for fences taller than 6 feet. Conversely, rural areas may have fewer restrictions. Typically, backyard privacy fences 6 feet or shorter do not require a permit, while front yard fences often have a lower height limit, sometimes as low as 3.5 feet. There can also be exceptions for properties in mixed residential-commercial zones. It's best to check with your local building inspection or zoning department to understand the specific requirements, height restrictions, and location rules for your area. A professional fence installer can help you navigate this process and often secure the necessary permits for you, though this may extend the project timeline.

Installation typically takes 2-5 days, depending on the size and complexity of the project.

Many types of farm fencing can work well for your farm, but it depends on the type of animal you need to contain and the size of your property. If you want something quick and temporary, go with a metal T-post fence. If you need something that will last forever, go with a synthetic fence made of composite material or PVC. Electric and barbed wire fences are often chosen for docile livestock, like pigs and cows.
