"Aaron was extremely professional. I was not able to be in Eau Claire during any of the remodel. Aaron communicated with me - sharing pictures of the work he did. Very skilled and has a great eye for detail. I am definitely going to hire him for other projects. Extremely satisfied."

"Randy and Jake were the best! They agreed to install this fence in the winter when everyone else we contacted wouldn't. They were simply amazing. No matter what needed to be done, no matter what tool was needed, Randy and Jake did it. I remember seeing them using the pickaxe to ensure the ground was level for each panel. We have a couple of Beagle puppies who are escape artists, but Randy and Jake made sure that every fence panel was too close to the ground for them to escape. Randy was perfect to work with. He explained the details of his plan and what it would cost. He didn't hide anything from us. Our install was extra complicated due to a sloping yard, but Randy knew how to account for that. Our neighbors were so impressed with their work, that they contacted Randy to install a fence for them, too! I have owned three houses and have contracted many projects out. I can say without reservation that Eau Claire Fence Company was the best we've ever hired to perform a service. If you need a fence installed, this is THE company to hire."

"These were the only contractors for my fence that got back to me immediately. This was a very good sign--they replaced an old beat-up fence and put up a beautiful new cedar fence in an amazingly small amount of time. Trevor even designed a pergola over the gate that my wife loves! On budget, on schedule and most important, top-notch meticulous workmanship. I will use them again and I recommend that you do as well!!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

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.

The best vinyl fence style for your yard depends on your needs, form and function-wise. For example, a classic vinyl picket fence in your front yard helps contain kids and canines while offering views of your neighborhood. But a more expensive privacy fence creates a secluded backyard oasis for family gatherings. Opt for a ranch-like post and rail vinyl fence if you want to carry on your rustic farmhouse vibes.

It’s usually cheaper to buy pre-made fence panels than to build your own. This surprises many people since DIY tasks so often save money. However, large stores don’t have to pay the same amount per board of wood that homeowners do, allowing them to sell pre-made panels at a more cost-effective rate. Pre-made panels also save a great deal of time, energy, and guesswork. The drawback is that they are harder to customize to the shape and slope of your yard.

Wood, vinyl, chain link, and aluminum are common materials. Choose based on durability, maintenance needs, and aesthetics.

A high-quality wrought iron fence is one of the most durable options available and can last a lifetime, or even centuries, with proper care. However, wrought iron is susceptible to rust and corrosion if not maintained.

To maximize its lifespan, regular maintenance is required. This includes:

  • Cleaning the fence with soapy water every six months.

  • Scrubbing away any rust or corrosion as soon as it appears.

  • Applying a new coat of paint or refinishing the fence every few years to protect the metal from moisture and oxygen. The recommended frequency varies, with sources suggesting anywhere from every 1 to 10 years.

If significant rust develops, it's wise to hire a professional fence repair company to clean the rust and reseal the fence. The cost to refinish a fence is typically between $5 and $12 per square foot, a worthwhile investment to ensure its longevity.
