"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 crew did a great job installing our new cedar fence! Price was very reasonable and job was completed quickly after we accepted the estimate. Would definitely recommend Hodel Fencing!"
"Great! Oscar is so polite and does xcellent work. Kept me updated on every step of the project. I wanted antique door knobs put on and Oscar had to come up with a way to secure the knob to the plate. Turned out beautiful!"
"I started off wanting a simple concrete work done on a pathway and patio. Marvin showed me paver options that I hadn't previously considered and even though they increased the price of the project, I am so much happier with the look of the end result. Everything is beautiful. The crew did fabulous work. My husband and I are looking forward to enjoying our new outdoor spaces for years to come."
"Andy Garcia, of Sirus Builds, has worked on a few projects for us over the years, including installation of a new deck, painting and priming interior spaces, fixing a gutter that was improperly installed, and installing interior trim and molding in our home. We live in an old house, circa 1917, with lathe and plaster walls and not a square corner to be found. We call Mr. Garcia "The Problem Solver." He is smart and creative in making available materials fit into impossible places. He's very professional, coming into a job ready to listen first and then checks in regularly once the work begins. In the case of the trim and molding job, he was able to recreate the look of the old molding when it was unavailable elsewhere."

There are two things you can do to make a fence replacement easier—but keep in mind that easier doesn’t mean better. First, you can use a jack or some other type of machinery to pull the post out of the ground. If that’s not available, a digging bar can help.
Second, you can backfill the hole with gravel rather than creating a concrete footing. Keep in mind, gravel is less secure. You should only use it if you’re installing a lightweight fence or have heavier, clay soil.
Regular maintenance for wire fencing includes annual inspections for rust or damage, tension adjustments every two to three years, and immediate repair of any breaks or loose sections. You should also regularly check the fence posts for stability, particularly after severe weather, and make sure to remove any vegetation growing along the fence line.
If you don’t have a pressure washer or simply don’t want to lug it out of storage, you can spot-clean your wood fence with a garden hose instead. Apply your mild detergent with a soft cloth, scrub with a broom or other soft-bristled brush, and rinse with a garden hose.
You can reuse chain link fences as long as they’re in good condition. The best part—reusing it helps you make the most of the cost of a chain link fence. Whether you want to reuse it or consider asking someone to remove it for you in exchange for a free fence, it’s possible. If you can’t find a location for it in your yard, you can repurpose a chain link fence by donating it to a local animal shelter or community garden.
