A fence increases home value by adding beauty and security to the property.

All our fences feature posts set in concrete except split rail and slip board fences. Because these styles are light and are not affected by wind, concrete in each post hole is not necessary unless there are areas with poor drainage, in which case concrete is used. Also, gate posts are in concrete footers on every style of fence.
This is a charge per hole for exceptionally hard digging due to very rocky soil. Our rock charge is typically $35-$45 for each post hole that requires hand digging or a jackhammer.

We don’t install fence in the rain or snow, so the weather has a huge effect on our schedule, making it impossible to predict several weeks in advance exactly where your installation date will fall. We confirm installation dates two working days in advance, but we understand that some people need more notice, and we will work with you to set an installation date that works for you.
Most townships and boroughs require a permit for fence installation, even if you are replacing an existing fence. Call you township to find out. Some even have their fence code available on their website.
Split rail fence is our most affordable fence and works well keeping most dogs safely enclosed.
