Most residential fence projects take 1-3 days depending on size, material, and weather conditions. Larger or more complex projects may take longer, nut we'll give you a clear timeline before work begins.
You don't have to be home the entire time, as long as we have access to the work area and pets are secured. We'll communicate with you before, during and after the project.
Spring and summer fill up quickly. We recommend reaching out a few weeks in advance, but we'll always do our best to fit you into our schedule as soon as possible.

Absolutely. We repair sagging gates, replace hardware, and adjust alignment so they open and close smoothly
Sometimes repairs make sense, and sometimes replacement is the better long-term investment. We'll give you honest recommendations based on the fence's condition.
Late spring through early fall is ideal. Temperatures should be moderate and the wood should be dry for best results.
Most fences and decks should be re-stained every 2-4 years depending on sun exposure, weather, and the type of stain used.

Safety and quality come first. If weather causes delays, we'll keep you informed and reschedule as soon as conditions allow.
