FREQUENTLY ASKED FENCING QUESTIONS

  • WHERE ARE YOUR FENCES BUILT?

    Our fences are constructed at our state of the art shop in Bellingham, MA.

  • DO YOUR FENCES REQUIRE MUCH MAINTENANCE?

    Wood fences need to be properly maintained but our vinyl and aluminum fences are virtually maintenance-free.

  • WHAT DOES THE INSTALLATION PROCESS ENTAIL?

    First, we will come out to your home and help you select the proper fence for your needs and budget. During this visit we will:


    • Take detailed measurements
    • Help guide you with style selections
    • Discuss any potential problem areas and offer solutions
    • Offer suggestions and guidance to ensure your fence will meet your functional needs for years to come
    • Provide a detailed, computerized estimate and discuss it with you

    After that, we build your fence, locally in Bellingham, MA.


    Then our punctual and courteous crews will show up, on time as scheduled, and complete the installation project in a timely, clean fashion. You can rely on receiving exceptional customer service and regular communication throughout the process

  • I’M MEASURING FOR A FENCE MYSELF, WHAT DO I DO?

    1. Insert stakes into the ground at each corner of the fence and at each point where the fence will end, such as at the edge of your driveway, where the fence meets your home, or wherever you would like to install a gate
    2. Tie a string or mason’s line to each stake for a visual line of where your fence will run
    3. Adjust the stakes as necessary until you are happy with the layout
    4. Using a long tape measure, typically a reel-type, measure from post to post making note of each measurement
    5. We find it is helpful to sketch out your layout including gates and add the measurements to the sketch. With these measurements, you can then determine how much fence you will need based on the width of each panel. You will also be able to determine how many partial panels you will need.

Fencing Repairs

Sometimes your fence needs a little TLC. When it does, call the professionals at Mr. Fence. Our skilled staff can handle all of your fencing repair and maintenance needs, even if we didn’t install your fence originally. Whether your property has had storm damage or you need to replace a rotting post, fix a bent top rail, replace damaged chain link or fix a gate that isn’t working correctly, give us a call. We will first assess the issue and then provide you with a detailed estimate to repair it. In addition, we will take the time to thoroughly explain everything to you and answer any questions you may have.

Fencing Warranties

Vinyl and aluminum both carry lifetime warranties through their manufacturers. Wood, being a natural product which breaks down over time and due to weathering, carries no material warrantee. Chain link, which also degrades over time, carries no material warrantee.

A Note About Wood Products:

When wood dries out it shrinks. This causes tension in some spots and a pulling apart of the wood fibers. This should not be viewed as a defect in the wood, but a natural occurrence known as “wood checking”, which appears as “cracks” in the wood.

There is a 2 year Labor Warranty on all of our installations, regardless of the type of material.
