How Fence Installation Gets Done Right
The crew starts by marking post locations based on your property line or the area you want enclosed in Spokane and surrounding areas. Post holes are dug to the correct depth for frost heave prevention, and posts are set in concrete and leveled before rails or panels go up. Gates are hung with adjustable hinges so they swing evenly and do not drag on the ground.
Once the fence is up, you notice that your yard has a clear boundary, pets stay inside the perimeter, and visibility from neighboring properties is reduced if you chose a privacy style. Wood fences are installed with the finished side facing out unless you request otherwise, and vinyl fencing is assembled with interlocking panels that do not warp or split over time.
If your property has uneven terrain, the fence is either stepped to follow the grade or racked to maintain a consistent angle. The crew explains which approach works better based on your yard layout and how you plan to use the fenced area.
Homeowners in Spokane and beyond often ask about material longevity, permit requirements, and what to do when existing fences need partial replacement instead of a full teardown.
Common Concerns Before Installing a Fence
What type of fence lasts longest in Spokane or beyond?
Vinyl and metal fences outlast wood because they do not rot, warp, or require sealing. Wood fences last fifteen to twenty years with regular maintenance, while vinyl and metal often last thirty years or more.
How deep do fence posts need to be?
Posts in Spokane or surrounding areas are typically set thirty inches deep to stay below the frost line and prevent heaving. The crew digs deeper in areas with loose soil or steep slopes.
What happens if my fence shares a property line?
You should confirm the property line before installation to avoid disputes, and the crew can work with your survey or coordinate with your neighbor if needed. Stone Base Contractors LLC installs the fence on your side of the line unless you have a shared agreement.
Why do some fences lean after a few years?
Leaning usually happens when posts are not set deep enough or concrete was not used. Stone Base Contractors LLC sets all posts in concrete and checks level before panels go up, so the fence stays upright.
When should I repair a fence instead of replacing it?
If only a few boards or panels are damaged and the posts are still solid, repairs are usually enough. The crew assesses post condition and framing during the estimate and explains what makes sense for your situation.
