    Fences

    "The fence and two gates turned out beautifully. I was a little apprehensive because at the last minute I was called out of town and would not be home for the job. Matt assured me that his crew would complete it as I had asked and that all they required was an outside electrical outlet. I told him where the outlet was located and that was that. When I returned, I was quite pleased. Professional people."

    "Chad, the owner of this company, did a thorough site inspection. He walked through the choices I would need to make, explained the relative advantages of each. I was able to make a decision about the overall job description. He emailed timely estimates, and we were able to set a time for the work to begin. His crew was polite, professional, and efficient. The job was completed very quickly, and there was no concern about cleanup. The quality of the wood is notable, and I'm glad we went with Great Northern Fence. My fence and gates are straight, sturdy, and look great!"

Frequently asked questions

  • Budget: Your budget is central in influencing which fence you buy. Figure out your spending limit and determine your budget per linear foot, as fencing costs can quickly add up.
  • Durability: Consider strength, lifespan, resistance to pests, rot and fungus, rust, and the material’s ability to withstand local weather conditions.
  • Maintenance: Maintenance, cleaning and repairs should be simple and minimal.
  • Purpose: The style of fence you choose should be suitable for its intended purpose. 
  • Installation: Find out what installation requirements, such as foundations or supports, are necessary. Research if DIY is possible or if professional installation is your only option.

  • Wood fence styles range from traditional to contemporary and from purely functional to attractive and decorative.
  • Lattice fences are affordable and decorative. You can use them as privacy fences by growing dense foliage over them.
  • Vertical board fences are the most common type of residential fence. There are budget-friendly options available as well as higher-end panels. Vertical board fences are affordable choices for basic privacy and security fences.
  • Picket fences conjure up cozy images of traditional properties with carefully tended lawns. They’re good for demarcating a property boundary but don’t provide much security.
  • Post-and-rail fences are a solid choice for making a boundary over a large area, as material use is minimal. However, they don’t provide any security or privacy.
  • Metal fences are generally stronger and more secure than other materials. You can choose from highly ornate and secure metalwork or simple but functional wire. For the higher-end options, which are often costly, homeowners often reduce costs per square foot by combining the metal with brick.
  • Aluminum fencing is an attractive, more affordable alternative to wrought iron. Although it has a similar appearance, it’s not as strong as wrought iron.
  • Steel fencing is a strong, long-lasting fencing option that’s good for creating a secure barrier around your home.
  • Vinyl fencing made from PVC comes in a range of styles, including those that mimic real wood.
  • Composite fencing is an amalgamation of wood fibers, pulp or sawdust and ground plastic particles that are bonded and held together by an acrylic resin. It looks and feels like real wood and is an environmentally friendly choice, as it usually contains a high percentage of recycled materials.
  • Wire fences are not made to enhance the aesthetics of your property, although some homeowners opt for black fencing to help boost aesthetics. They are inexpensive, purely functional products suitable for DIY or professional installation.
  • Barbed wire fencing isn’t common in residential settings. While it’s an inexpensive, fierce and intimidating security deterrent, it isn’t attractive and will not add value to your home.

    Comment: I have a wrought iron swinging driveway gate and a separate pedestrian wrought iron gate that are rusting and in need of repair and painting. I spoke with an iron works company and they suggested hiring a handyman to do the work. Their recommendation was (1) sanding, (2) spraying the gate with cold galvanizing spray, (3) painting with Behr (Home Depot) direct to metal paint. I'm not sure if this is the right approach, but wanted to let you know what I've been told.
