"We recently had a fence installed, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, the team was professional, friendly, and easy to work with. They showed up when they said they would, paid attention to every detail, and the quality of their work exceeded my expectations. The fence looks amazing and our two dogs love being able to roam free. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality workmanship and excellent customer service. Thank you for doing such a fantastic job!"
"Ryan and his guys are absolutely the best! Ryan really takes good care of your fencing needs. He is very reliable and everytime I messaged him he would message me back asap. I highly recommend Hodel fencing for all your fencing needs."
"John was fantastic and professional from start to finish. He was very understanding of my situation, of when I had to fire another contractor because of job abandonment. With John expertise and knowledge he was able to fix all of prior errors and complete the job in a timely manner. My fence looks beautiful and passed inspection with no issues."
"Snow removal is always tough but the crew does a great job getting around cars and obstacles. They can also get heavy machinery in when necessary to remove excess snow. As for the landscaping they have brought down many a tree for me in difficult areas without issue. They are very detail oriented and will leave the site better than when they started."

Ideally, when you replace a fence post, you should also replace the concrete footing. The concrete bonds to your new post, creating a secure base. If you install a new post into old concrete, it won’t be as sturdy.
That said, it is possible. Sometimes the post will lift right out of the concrete. If not, you can use a high-lift car jack to try and lift the pole out of the footing. Put the new post into the same hole and backfill it with fast-setting concrete. Keep in mind, this won’t work well for metal posts.
You can use pressure-treated wood for a horizontal fence, but you’ll need to purchase a thicker and higher-quality variety to ensure it doesn’t sag or warp after you install it. Use #2 pine grade lumber and boards and thicker dimensional lumber, such as a two-by-six. You’ll also need to use stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners, as the chemicals in the treated lumber will cause regular galvanized fasteners to rust.
The lifespan of wire fencing heavily depends on factors like gauge, material, coating type, and environmental conditions. However, with proper maintenance, many wire fences last for 20 to 30 years.Coastal areas or regions with high rainfall may see reduced lifespans of 10 to 15 years due to increased corrosion risk.
Because this composite fencing and deck material is made from both wood and plastic, it’s more durable than either alone. It’s so popular for outdoor purposes because it really does stand the test of time. Heavy rain and high heat won’t greatly change its structural integrity; it can last up to 25 years in total with proper care.
The cheapest fence to install is likely to be a wire fence, whether it’s hog wire or chicken wire. Closely following that is something repurposed that would be free to collect, like a DIY pallet fence. Most wire fences are available in large quantities at a low cost, so they’re great for homes with a tight budget.
