"Chris and Travis did a fantastic job on my bathroom remodel. They were efficient and stayed in constant contact with me because I couldn't be on site at the time the work was being done. I'm absolutely satisfied with the quality of work they've done. Not only would I hire them again, I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for really great craftsmanship and service."

"I had been looking for someone to build an outbuilding for me in my woods without disturbing the existing woods much more than it already was. That ruled out a drag and drop shed. Atlantic was able to build to my described vision and built me a 20X14 building that I am extremely happy with. They took care of the permits, extended and framed in my existing crush and run pad to be proper distance from property line. They built a beautiful building, and a ramp walkway for me. Installed a solar exhaust fan, stained and painted. This is a super sturdy building. I have been out there during some big winds and violent storms with no real concerns. I will surely call Atlantic Coast next time I have a project. I want to include some pics, but I’m going to have to shrink them down."

"The work that was preformed was horrible. This was new construction home and which we thought we hired this company and come to find out they sub contracted the work out. This was a total Sheetrock job. A lot of our personal property was used and damaged, none of the work was complete on 2 separate occasions, the owner was very disrespectful when we called him out on it,etc. I can’t explain everything we went through to get this job done properly. We had to hire someone else to complete the work. Keep in mind we live over 3 hours away and 2 separate trips the work was supposed to be complete. I would not recommend and be careful signing their contract and giving them your direct account information!! They will try and withdraw the money without your knowledge and claim they made attempts to collect which is incorrect!!"

Wood fence installations FAQs

To determine how much fencing you need, start by measuring the perimeter of the area you want to enclose. Divide that number by the standard post spacing (usually six to eight feet) to calculate the number of posts you'll need. For precise measurements and to account for any irregularities, consider hiring a professional land surveyor.

Wood fences last 15 to 20 years when built with quality materials and installed properly. Pine fences last 10 to 15 years, while composite walls offer 20 to 30 years of durability. The fence’s lifespan is influenced by wood quality, weather exposure, and regular maintenance, which preserves its strength and appearance.

To prolong the life of your wood fence, you need to inspect it at least once each year and act immediately on any signs of loose nails, rusting hinges, or rotting boards. Annual cleaning, followed by a fresh coat of paint or stain every two to three years, secures the fence’s durability and preserves its appearance in all weather.

Fence posts are typically placed four to eight feet apart. Check with your local code requirements to ensure the correct spacing, depth, and setting. The placement of your fence posts depends on the fence height and material. Generally speaking, it's better for the fence if your posts are closer together.

To avoid upheavals or other issues, bury your fence post so the depth exceeds the frost line, or about one-third to one-half of the aboveground height of your post. Check with your local code requirements to determine the right depth for your home since it varies by location.

If a fence borders your neighbor’s property, you must inform your neighbor in advance about the installation. You share the responsibility for repair and maintenance in such cases, so both parties are held accountable by local regulations. It is essential to confirm your local code requirements and documented agreements to avoid future disputes and ensure clear responsibilities.
