Fences come in a variety of materials such as wood, vinyl, chain-link, and wrought iron. You might have questions about he type of fences you can choose from, each style's different uses, and your specific maintenance needs. Below are some of the frequently asked questions that we get from our clients and their respective answers.

    Wood fences are very durable, but they require maintenance to prolong their life and protect it from the elements. Staining your wood fence is a regular part of fence maintenance and it should be done every two to three years.

    A privacy fence is one with slats or panels that are installed tightly next to one another with no space between them. This keeps others from being able to see onto your property regardless of how close they stand to the fence on the other side.
