"The only problem I saw was the barb wire was not straight on a 30 foot section and the dirt around a few of the posts was not packed right. The price was pretty good and they did the job the next day after estimate. One of the workers was kind of rude to me after the job was done? all in all I may hire them again but will get more than 1 estimate next time"

We will make any project our best project.

"Horrible communication. Delayed work for months which cost us a lot of money. Brandon and Detailed by Design are not upfront about costs and their ability to complete projects on time. We met with the owner Brandon to address all the issues and finally agreed to a resolution which would have still been a loss to us however he reneged at the last minute and did not pay to replace the old furnace he tried to pass off as new. If you choose to use this business, check all receipts on "new" appliances they say they installed. We reported this business to the Department of Labor because of the shoddy work in installing the furnace and because the furnace was old when we paid for a new furnace. The dept of labor confirmed they were not licensed to install the furnace. We paid for a new furnace ourselves and a licensed contractor to install it. Overall a lot of issues and an absolute nightmare. We are still working on recouping some of our costs from this business."

we build decks and wood fences ,repairs,post replacement ,stair additions,railings,

"I called and asked a question about posts holding up my back deck, as to what needed to be done with them before they were covered up partly with dirt. Troy got back to me within minutes with a text explaining what was needed depending on what kind of posts they were. Then he informed me he was booked up for the rest of 2018. You can bet I'll contact him again if I need to do anything with the deck next year. I was impressed that he got right back to me even if it wasn't going to mean business for him."

FAQs for projects in Shafer, MN

Woven wire fencing is durable and lasts 20 to 30 years, depending on local conditions. How your livestock and local wildlife interact with the fence can impact its useful lifespan. Wood posts will need repair or replacement long before you have to worry about replacing the woven wire fencing itself.

Good preparation before installing a wire fence prevents weeds and bushes from becoming a problem later. Create a clear zone free of all vegetation, extending one to two feet on either side of the fence. If possible, use gravel or concrete to discourage plant growth near the fence. Maintain the clear zone manually or through the use of herbicides to prevent encroachment.

Most properly installed wire fences for livestock, including hog wire fences and woven wire fences, require minimal maintenance and are expected to last 25 to 50 years on average. Priming and painting wood components like posts can help prevent rot. Regularly inspect all wiring for signs of damage, rust, or structural issues. You can usually repair or replace damaged components without needing to install a brand-new wire fence.
