We Take the Jobs the “Big Guys” Won’t

Many large fence companies have high minimums and refuse to do repairs. We are different. We specialize in extending the life of your existing fence.

Storm Damage Repair

Did a winter storm blow down a section of your stockade fence? We can often replace the broken posts and re-hang the existing panels to save you money.

Post Replacement

When rot takes over, the fence leans. We dig out the old concrete, install new pressure-treated 4×4 or 6×6 posts, and set them in fresh concrete.

Gate Adjustments

A gate that drags on the ground is annoying and unsafe. We install heavy-duty hinges, square up the frame, and ensure the latch clicks shut every time.

Built for the New Hampshire Climate

A fence is only as strong as its posts. In NH, shallow holes lead to “frost heave,” where the freezing ground pushes the post up and out of alignment.

  • Deep Footings: We dig our post holes deep to bypass the frost line, ensuring your fence stays straight through the freeze-thaw cycles.
  • Concrete Setting: We use the correct concrete mix for the soil conditions to lock the posts in place against high winds.
  • Quality Lumber: We use ground-contact rated lumber for all structural posts to resist rot and insect damage.

The Installation Process: Simple & Stress-Free

We handle the details so you don’t have to worry about the heavy lifting.

Consultation

We walk your property, discuss the primary goal (Privacy? Pets? Decoration?), and measure the linear footage.

Site Preparation

Once you have cleared the fence line of brush and debris, we mark the exact post locations to ensure the final result is straight and true.

The Build

We set the corner posts first to establish the layout, then construct the fence section by section for a sturdy finish.

Common Questions About Fences

We believe in clear communication and no surprises. Here are answers to the most common questions homeowners ask about fence installations.

Yes. This is one of our most common services. If a tree branch crushed one panel or a plow snapped two posts, we can replace just the damaged components without forcing you to buy a whole new fence.

Rot usually happens at the ground line where moisture sits against the wood. We use pressure-treated lumber rated for “ground contact” and pitch the concrete slightly away from the post to shed water, significantly extending the life of the wood.

It depends on your town. Many NH towns have zoning rules regarding fence height (usually max 6 feet for backyards) and “setbacks” from the property line. We can help you check your local regulations before we start digging.

This is a common “Good Neighbor” etiquette question. Generally, the “finished” side (the pretty side) should face outward toward your neighbors or the street, while the posts and rails face inside your yard.
