"I called Mike on a Friday for some help moving three bedrooms of furniture and with cleaning out my attic and an outside closet. They showed up on Tuesday morning bright and early, right when they said they would be here, and they worked continuously the whole time they were here. It took them a little less than two hours to do what I thought was at least a half a days worth of work. I gladly paid the two hour minimum and I believe that it was a great deal. They were careful not to damage anything, and they did exactly what I asked . Their rates are reasonable, and I recommend them wholeheartedly for any size move."

Fencing questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can expect your composite fencing to fade quickly during the first six months. This happens naturally because the wood oils in the fencing material, called tannins, bleed out. Because of this, it can help to get a color chart from your fence company, which should show you the color of your fence before and after it fades.

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.

The first step in choosing a reputable dog fencing company is to confirm that the professional has experience in your particular area and maintains positive reviews online. You should also check the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) website to see if they have accrued customer complaints in the past. Additionally, you can ask the following questions to qualify the pro:

  • Do you have experience installing the specific fence material I want?

  • Will you pull permits for the installation?

  • Will you help get a survey done to make sure I build on my property?

  • Do you have a list of referrals?

Yes, you can use a floor jack to remove fence posts. Attach a stem to the base of the fence post so you can position the floor jack underneath. The stem can be a scrap piece of wood attached with nails or a sturdy nail itself. Put the jack beneath the stem and push the lever to lift up on the fence post and remove it from the ground.

Standard post spacing for shadowbox fences is 6 to 8 feet. This spacing ensures proper support for the heavy weight of overlapping pickets and prevents sagging between posts. However, areas with high winds, slopes, or unstable soil conditions may require closer spacing.
