"York Fence is definitely a professional organization when it comes to customer service, installation and appearance. Their crew was prompt, organized and very methodical when it came to the installation itself. They cleaned up everything afterwards. Literally, there was nothing to be of concern about when this was over. More importantly, we achieved what we were looking for....privacy. I can't say enough good things about York Fence. Definitely a first class company who treats their customers right."

"Absolutely perfect! Installers were very courteous and professional. Driveways were swept and was a very clean site after they finished! Looks so good thinking about doing the rest of the yard. Maria was very helpful and kept me up to date throughout the progress. Would highly recommend to all those needing a fence!"

"The crew was punctual, professional, thorough and they used safety equipment when up in the trees. When all was done, they left the property in a very neat condition. Also, as three of the trees are close to the neighbors' properties, the crew paid careful attention to what they were doing and managed not to negatively impact my neighbors."

"I contracted with Paragon Remodeling Group/Safe Trust roofing for the installation of three security/storm doors, replacement of a gable vent and a minor masonry repair. The job was off to a slow start with multiple concerns involving the installation of the doors (life is never perfect and things don't always go as planned). Tom Hemmerle, the owner of this company, was contacted. He came to our home, inspected the job, assessed the situation and offered definitive solutions. He took this small job as seriously as if it were a large construction project and made it clear to us he would have the it completed in a quality fashion and to our satisfaction, and he did so in a cordial and professional manner. The issues at the onset were more than resolved and our expectations were completely met. We are satisfied homeowners and would not hesitate to call on Paragon Remodeling Group/Safe Trust Roofing for future work. We highly recommend this company. Tom Hemmerle definitely has your back!"

FAQs for projects in Jersey City, NJ

No, installing a privacy fence isn't rude as long as you respect property boundaries and comply with local regulations. By building the fence entirely on your property and following zoning codes, you're creating a safe space without causing offense. Informing your neighbors before building your fence can also help maintain good relationships.

A privacy fence should be between six and eight feet tall to offer clear privacy and security. This height range provides an effective barrier that meets both design and safety standards. It gives your property a balanced appearance while protecting your space without encroaching on your neighbor's area. Be sure to check your local building codes, as regulations may limit the maximum allowable height.

A professional can install a privacy fence in about 20 to 30 hours, while doing it yourself might take 40 to 50 hours. Factors like obtaining permits, preparing the site, and leveling the ground can affect the installation time. Additional tasks like removing an old fence or dealing with uneven terrain may also extend the project duration.

Yes, horizontal fences are more expensive than vertical ones, but offer enhanced durability and a modern look. Their design often requires more materials and can result in a stronger structure with better resistance to weather conditions. If you're looking for superior longevity and a stylish appearance, the extra investment in a horizontal fence may be worthwhile.

Yes, hiring a land surveyor is important because it confirms your exact property boundaries. This step helps prevent costly encroachment issues and legal disputes by ensuring that your fence is built entirely on your property. An accurate survey guarantees compliance with local zoning laws, facilitates a smooth installation process, and helps maintain good relations with your neighbors.
