What our contractors ran into
Tear-out job. Existing fence was 18 years old and three of the original posts were still solid — turned out the previous installer had used heavy creosoted posts that pre-date current treatments. Our contractors saved those posts and the homeowner kept the original 1996 brick post caps.
How it finished
Two-day demo and rebuild. Disposal cost about $180. The three preserved posts now have new cedar pickets attached.
What our contractors ran into
Newer subdivision with a small HOA. Permit and HOA approval both required, so our contractors ran them in parallel. Permit issued in 9 days, HOA approval in 14.
How it finished
Two-and-a-half-day install. Standard build, no surprises.
What our contractors ran into
Property near a busy school zone — owner wanted full perimeter with privacy slats to reduce visual distraction. Standard chain link build with vinyl-coated black fabric and matching slats.
How it finished
Two-day install. Slats added about $4/ft to the base chain link cost.
