"The renovation of our 1950's bathroom has been completed and it is a piece of art. The entire project was handled by Johnny C. with excellence. Johnny was easy to work with and shared his expertise and knowledge to help us with the process. Some of our design choices did pose a challenge for him but he executed those trouble spots expertly. This renovation had a huge tile component and he did a beautiful job with the wall and floor tile we chose. We now have a really stunning bathroom that is in keeping with the vintage age of the home. From our initial meeting we were comfortable with what he offered: a really fair price, a couple of consultations prior to the work beginning which helped us select our materials and very responsive to our questions throughout the process. Each day Johnny and his assistant, Danny, arrived on time. At the end of each day, Danny did an excellent job of cleaning up the work area and leaving things in the best possible condition. Johnny is very conscientious about returning the home to the owners so things can remain as normal as possible through the process. We recommend Johnny highly for his excellent workmanship, his friendly personality, his more than fair price and the easy manner of communication."

"John came out to assess our yard and gave us great ideas for the design to best meet our needs. His crew installed areas of black aluminum fence, vinyl privacy fence, and automatic gates The workers were very professional, friendly and careful. We are extremely happy with the final outcome of the project. I would enthusiastically recommend John and his team for your fence needs."

Frequently asked questions
- Budget: Your budget is central in influencing which fence you buy. Figure out your spending limit and determine your budget per linear foot, as fencing costs can quickly add up.
- Durability: Consider strength, lifespan, resistance to pests, rot and fungus, rust, and the material’s ability to withstand local weather conditions.
- Maintenance: Maintenance, cleaning and repairs should be simple and minimal.
- Purpose: The style of fence you choose should be suitable for its intended purpose.
- Installation: Find out what installation requirements, such as foundations or supports, are necessary. Research if DIY is possible or if professional installation is your only option.
- Wood fence styles range from traditional to contemporary and from purely functional to attractive and decorative.
- Lattice fences are affordable and decorative. You can use them as privacy fences by growing dense foliage over them.
- Vertical board fences are the most common type of residential fence. There are budget-friendly options available as well as higher-end panels. Vertical board fences are affordable choices for basic privacy and security fences.
- Picket fences conjure up cozy images of traditional properties with carefully tended lawns. They’re good for demarcating a property boundary but don’t provide much security.
- Post-and-rail fences are a solid choice for making a boundary over a large area, as material use is minimal. However, they don’t provide any security or privacy.
- Metal fences are generally stronger and more secure than other materials. You can choose from highly ornate and secure metalwork or simple but functional wire. For the higher-end options, which are often costly, homeowners often reduce costs per square foot by combining the metal with brick.
- Aluminum fencing is an attractive, more affordable alternative to wrought iron. Although it has a similar appearance, it’s not as strong as wrought iron.
- Steel fencing is a strong, long-lasting fencing option that’s good for creating a secure barrier around your home.
- Vinyl fencing made from PVC comes in a range of styles, including those that mimic real wood.
- Composite fencing is an amalgamation of wood fibers, pulp or sawdust and ground plastic particles that are bonded and held together by an acrylic resin. It looks and feels like real wood and is an environmentally friendly choice, as it usually contains a high percentage of recycled materials.
- Wire fences are not made to enhance the aesthetics of your property, although some homeowners opt for black fencing to help boost aesthetics. They are inexpensive, purely functional products suitable for DIY or professional installation.
- Barbed wire fencing isn’t common in residential settings. While it’s an inexpensive, fierce and intimidating security deterrent, it isn’t attractive and will not add value to your home.
