"Dana was recommended by my neighbor in Manchester so I called him to provide an estimate for finishing a major renovation. His quote for the work was fair and reasonable. He finished the job on time and on budget working late hours and sometimes weekends to finish on time. He worked unsupervised and his quality of workmanship was excellent! We had few issues previous contractor left behind and he took care of everything. I then hired him for few other things like small demo, patch work, deck cleaning/staining, cabinetry work. All came our great and very happy with is work. Would definitely hire him again for future projects and highly recommended."

"Brad was the professional who helped me with my non-working washing machine. He arrived promptly, was professional and courteous and went out of his way to get the necessary parts for the repair. Everything was cleaned up and working like new when Brad left. I will definitely be using Elite Construction for future projects. Thank you, Brad! Lisa Higgins, Bennington VT"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Yes, a double fence can keep deer out of your yard by using the deer’s limited depth perception. For example, a 6-foot tall fence with another 4-foot fence a couple feet from the outer fence makes it look more difficult and unsafe for the deer to jump and land safely. You can even mimic the look of a double fence by using wire or a clothesline.

A silt fence should be buried in a trench that is 6 to 12 inches deep. A depth of at least 6 to 8 inches is necessary to prevent water and sediment from running underneath the fence. A deeper trench, up to 12 inches, provides better anchoring during wet and windy weather. To ensure proper installation, look for a red line on the silt fence fabric, which often indicates the correct burial depth. Always adhere to local guidelines and regulations; a professional contractor will be familiar with these requirements.

No, fence posts aren’t always set in concrete. If you don’t want to use concrete footings for your posts, expanding foam is a popular alternative. Expanding foam and concrete each have certain pros and cons. For instance, foam is easier to install and more sustainable, but concrete is sturdier and less expensive.

Lattice should not touch the ground, as it creates a possibility for rot and a termite infestation. It’s best to leave a gap of 3 or 4 inches at the bottom for airflow and to keep the wood dry. You can add stones, bricks, or other decorative pieces to conceal the bottom of the lattice if desired.

While picking a standard chain-link fence might be your first instinct, that metal can easily rust over time, making your space look not-so-great. Black chain-link fences are a simple and affordable way to fence in an area of your yard and are also less prone to showing rust than traditional galvanized steel chain-link fences. Plus, black chain-link fencing is a more unique option that can look very striking and elegant when installed properly.
