People have been debating the meaning of this statement for over a hundred years. Here’s what we know about a good fence.

A good fence brings peace of mind for the things that matter most. The comfort and security of your land and property are everything to you.

Aesthetics make a difference, too and a good fence brings out the true beauty of your home and yard.

And if ever there comes a day when you decide to call somewhere else home, a good fence even adds to the value of your property.

Of course, we prefer a great fence and so do you. That’s what we deliver. Every time.

    • Resale value. Adding a fence to your property increases the value of your home, so that if you ever choose to sell you can benefit from the return on investment. 

    • Noise reduction. A fence can make your yard quieter and even dampen sound from reaching the interior of your home. 

    • Protects landscaping. Plants, bushes, flowers, vegetable gardens, and other landscaping can be protected from the elements by a fence. 

  • We provide the following residential fencing options and features to cater to a variety of needs and preferences:

  • What is the least expensive residential fencing material? 

    Chain link fencing tends to be the most affordable, followed by wood. Chain link provides no privacy and it is not ornamental, but it is functional. Wood offers privacy but has the shortest lifespan as it is susceptible to warping, pests, and rot. 

    What type of fence offers the most resale value? 

    A wood or metal fence is the most likely to raise the resale value of your home. Wood typically costs less than metal, but requires more upkeep to maintain the value. 

    Do I need a permit to have a fence installed? 

    Permits depend on the local laws. Homeowners Associations may also require you to get permission before installing a fence. We will handle all permits and permissions for you to ensure that your fence is legal. 

    What is the best time of year to get a fence installed?

    Contrary to what you may think, the best time of year to have a fence installed on your property is fall or winter. This is a less busy time for fence companies and there tends to be less vegetation to clear in the colder months. 

    How long does it take to have a fence installed? 

    Depending on the size of your property, your fence installation may take anywhere from 1-4 days. Having your current fence removed first can add to the total project timeline.
