Our primary focus is residential & light commercial fencing. In 2005 I decided to focus on one "Home Improvement" area, fencing. Since then, myself & my crew have installed over 1200 fences. I've worked to develop the best equipped, top notch crew in the area. Development of a second crew is under way. That said, we also do other, similar, or related projects. Through the years, I've worked with many home owners in different ways, helping them to realize their dreams. Whether it's financial arrangements like using credit cards, insurance adjustments, finance companies, or mortgage companies, we can work it out. I still take cash, US legal tender.

"Came when arranged. Listened to job needs and took extra care. Fence is lovely. Reasonably priced based on other quotes I got. Gates are beautifully sturdy. Latches can be locked from either side. Workers and owner considerate and easy to deal with."

FAQs for wood fence installation projects in Athens, TN

To determine how much fencing you need, start by measuring the perimeter of the area you want to enclose. Divide that number by the standard post spacing (usually six to eight feet) to calculate the number of posts you'll need. For precise measurements and to account for any irregularities, consider hiring a professional land surveyor.

Wood fences last 15 to 20 years when built with quality materials and installed properly. Pine fences last 10 to 15 years, while composite walls offer 20 to 30 years of durability. The fence’s lifespan is influenced by wood quality, weather exposure, and regular maintenance, which preserves its strength and appearance.

To prolong the life of your wood fence, you need to inspect it at least once each year and act immediately on any signs of loose nails, rusting hinges, or rotting boards. Annual cleaning, followed by a fresh coat of paint or stain every two to three years, secures the fence’s durability and preserves its appearance in all weather.

Fence posts are typically placed four to eight feet apart. Check with your local code requirements to ensure the correct spacing, depth, and setting. The placement of your fence posts depends on the fence height and material. Generally speaking, it's better for the fence if your posts are closer together.

To avoid upheavals or other issues, bury your fence post so the depth exceeds the frost line, or about one-third to one-half of the aboveground height of your post. Check with your local code requirements to determine the right depth for your home since it varies by location.

If a fence borders your neighbor’s property, you must inform your neighbor in advance about the installation. You share the responsibility for repair and maintenance in such cases, so both parties are held accountable by local regulations. It is essential to confirm your local code requirements and documented agreements to avoid future disputes and ensure clear responsibilities.
