Questions I get about wood fences.

Who pulls the permit?

Most South Florida municipalities require a permit for fences over 6 ft or in front-yard locations. Homeowner usually pulls it because the application names the property owner. I'll help fill it out.

What if my neighbor disputes the line?

I won't dig until the property line is confirmed by your survey or both neighbors agree. I've had that conversation enough times to know it's worth pausing.

Do you build the gates?

Yes, simple swing gates are included. Sliding or custom-millwork gates I'll quote separately.

Tell me what you need. I'll text you back today.

Most homeowners hear back within two hours. I keep my phone on me on the job — leave a voicemail and I'll call after dinner.
