"Connor Andrews expertly built my 161’ fence with two gates. I am proud to show it off. Even before he finished it, a neighbor admired the fence and asked him to do a fence estimate for her. Connor was efficient, doing the teardown and build in two days. The fence exceeds my expectations and is true and well finished, and at an economical price. I gladly recommend Craftsman Fence LLC."

"Cano's fencing was great! There was hidden concrete and a special order gate that was handled quickly-no drama and no problem when I asked that the neighbor's side of the fence go up first due to an unfriendly dog. Any questions were addressed immediately. The fence is beautiful and Luis installed better hardware and took special care to clean up every scrap of old fence and debris. Our big project took only 3 days and we are happy to recommend Cano's for any project."

"Estimate appt was very thorough. Build appts went very smoothly. I love my new fence! It’s beautiful. The gates are so easy to get in and out of. My neighbors and even total strangers walking by have remarked about it as I went to get my mail from mailbox. The extra privacy is wonderful and my pups love the new space too!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Posts for a horizontal fence should be no more than 6 feet apart. Wood pickets are not as strong when mounted horizontally as when mounted vertically. As such, the fence panels on a horizontal fence can’t cover the same span between posts as a vertical fence can. If you install the posts further apart on a horizontal fence, the fence will lose stability, making the boards more likely to sag. 

The average lifespan of a wood fence is 15 to 20 years, but some can last for 40 years or more depending on several factors. The type of wood is crucial; for example, untreated pine may only last 5 to 10 years, while pressure-treated pine can last up to 20 years, and cedar's natural resistance can extend its life to 40 years. Other factors include local weather conditions, with wet and windy climates causing faster deterioration, and the quality of maintenance. Higher-end wood, metal posts, and privacy fence styles also tend to last longer.

Yes, installing wrought iron fencing will usually require a building permit, as do all types of fencing. Building permits for wrought iron fencing typically cost between $150 and $500, and the price will vary based on where you live and how much your local building department charges. You may also need to pay for a property survey if you’re installing wrought iron fencing on your property line. This type of survey can cost around $500, but it prevents issues with building on neighboring properties, which can be much more expensive in the long run.

To choose where to add a fence gate, know where fence gates shouldn’t go. For example, you should avoid placing gates over low spots on the ground where water can collect and form muddy puddles. Many ranchers install gates at the corner of a fence. Certain gate placements may also be required depending on the type of gate latch you use.

You can DIY a stockade fence installation, but prepare to put in some good sweat equity. For the best results, carefully plan the exact location of your fence before you break ground. In particular, carefully map out your post locations before setting them in concrete. Be sure to call your local utility company before digging to avoid damaging underground wiring and causing severe injury.

On the other hand, installing stockade fencing on your own might sound too overwhelming. It’s certainly time-consuming and labor-intensive. Besides the hard work, you must install it properly to avoid gaps. Unless you’re confident you can get the job done right, hiring a privacy fence installer near you is the way to go.
