Wood Fence Installation in Delaware

The fence that surrounds your property is crucial to your home’s aesthetic appeal. Homeowners should think about cost, aesthetics, and functionality when selecting a fence. In addition to securely containing your property, pets, and family members, your fence should also improve the aesthetics of your house and yard. For all of your fencing needs, wood fences are a great, dependable, and timeless option.

Installing a wood fence is a popular choice among homeowners today. Wood has a lovely, natural appearance, and wood fence installers can alter the appearance of wood fencing in a number of ways. These fences are a great option for anyone looking to build a brand-new fence or replace an outdated one because they are affordable, provide privacy, and are both.

A wood fence will never go out of style, and you can relax knowing that your fence is strong, reasonably priced, and simple to maintain. Several different kinds of properties, including:

Wood Fence Designs

Making design decisions is one of the most fun aspects of installing a wood fence. We provide a wide range of designs and styles so you can pick the one that is most appropriate for your home.

Shadowbox

You have probably seen the shadow box wood fence style in your neighborhood because it is a common choice for installing wood fences. For property owners who want to balance privacy with an open fence design, these fences are a fantastic option because they are particularly strong and wind-resistant.

Split Rail

One of the more conventional types of wood fences is the split rail fence. A rustic, traditional appearance is created when vertical wood posts are joined by horizontal wood rails. These fences are a cost-effective option because they don’t need a lot of materials.

Board on Board

Boarding the ship For homeowners seeking the greatest amount of privacy, wood fence panels are a great choice. These wood panels are great for protecting your property from intruders and blocking out any visibility because they overlap to prevent visibility.

French Gothic

Wooden fences in the gothic style have gaps between lovely wood posts that allow some visibility into and out of the fenced area. In order to make the fence stand out, these fences frequently have decorative points at the top.

Stockade

Stockade-style fencing is a great choice for those who value privacy because the boards are closely spaced and do not overlap. To create the look you want, we can build these fences at any height.

A Cost-Effective Choice

Wood fence installation is a popular choice among property owners who look after larger properties, like farms or expansive backyards, because it provides so much. You can customise your fence in a number of ways to suit your preferences and financial constraints. Leading Edge Fence & Gates and other wood fence companies can give you financial needs advice.

Our use of premium lumber helps your fence withstand weather, rot, and waterlogging while also preventing breakage. With no sacrifice to style, our carefully chosen wood gives you fencing that is long-lasting and affordable.

Make Your Wood Fence Your Own

The most individualized fencing options available are made of wood. Our wood fence installers give you the following customization options:

Repair Friendly

Because it is simple to fix or replace sections when they become damaged, wood fence installation is very common. Your fencing may develop issues due to accidents, storms, or normal wear and tear.

Whether or not we originally installed your fence, at Leading Edge Fence & Gates we can replace broken sections to resolve any problems you may be having.

Maintaining Your Fence

Wood can be sensitive to environmental factors that cause it to degrade. To ensure longevity, wood fences need to be maintained beforehand.

Cleaning Wood Fences

You can use a pressure washer set to low pressure to clean your wood fence after it has been installed. This is crucial for keeping your fence in good condition because it helps keep the wood free of deteriorating elements like dirt and mold.

To remove any unwelcome dirt from the wood panels, there are specialised wood soaps made for pressure-treated wood that will work well. Remember to use the pressure washer carefully when cleaning your fence to prevent spending too much time concentrating the pressure on one particular area.

Sealing, Painting, and Staining

Wood can deteriorate due to environmental factors like rain and intense sunlight. Because of this, many homeowners decide to seal, paint, or stain their fences after installing wood fences.

Wood that has been stained and sealed is better shielded from fading, weathering, and temperature changes. Wood fences don’t need to be stained or painted, but some people prefer the look of a fence that has been specially stained or painted. Your fence is shielded from water and sunlight by sealing. For maximum protection, it’s crucial to seal your fence once a year.

Painting is a great way to personalize your fence and pick a color that complements the design of your house and yard. In order to prepare your fence for painting, make sure to prime the entire surface, including the cut ends. When priming, you ought to use an alkyd oil-based primer, and for the subsequent coats, superior acrylic latex paint. Before painting your fence, it must be completely dry.

Your fence may look more appealing with a different color or texture if you stain it. Your fence must be completely dry before you can stain it effectively, just like when you paint. Select a stain with a built-in UV stabilizer and water repellent for additional protection.

Due to the wood’s need to settle and have time to expand and contract, you shouldn’t seal your fence right away. Within 30 days to six weeks of installation, if you want to seal, stain, or paint your fence, you should do so.

Had a vinyl fence installed. They use metal inserts for each post instead of cement, so expect to have visible screws on the outside of the vinyl posts. Other than that, the fence looks great. Initially, the gates had big gaps between the panels and posts, but the crew came back and addressed the issue right away. I would recommend them

I can not recommend this fencing company enough! We forgot to leave a review after they installed our beautiful fence and this past weekend someone hit our fence. These guys were out here the first business day already replacing our fence where it was damaged. Always professional and super understanding with our situation and timely initial install.

After extensive research that included reading a plethora of reviews, analyzing every detail in countless photos, speaking to owners/reps of multiple companies, we decided Leading Edge Fence & Gates was going to be our pick for a few reasons.Customer Relations - The team was very communicative and helpful throughout the entire process. Our HOA wasn't an easy feat with updated plans, photos, etc. but Leading Edge was very patient and ensured we had all the changes necessary. Wes and Randy were extremely easy to work with as we did a walk around and discussed options. Sure, people have slip ups because they're human, but would I take the time to leave a 1 star review? No, it's been over a month and I am now having time to write this raving review so for others to take the time to leave a cruddy one, ya'll need to find a hobby.Work Ethics - These guys were out here for two days in the smoldering heat laboring away rarely taking breaks. Haley who works in the office was on top of it as well. She sent over the documents in a timely fashion and assisted with payment as I made it complicated for her via phone; yet, she continued to express her kind and patient manners.Quality - So far so good. I'm a bit OCD so if there is a slight misalignment, you're darn right I will point it out immediately. That is exactly what I did and it was addressed promptly so I truly appreciate the attention to detail. Overall, they must have done a fantastic job because I've seen quite a few people outside my yard taking photos and I sure as heck know there isn't anything else worth taking pictures of outside my house.

Quality work was done as promised at a fair price. They stayed in contact the whole time, and the crew was a pleasure to work with!

Really appreciated the work that Wes and Randy did installing our privacy vinyl fence. Schedule-wise there were a couple unexpected delays, but eventually we were able to get everything squared away (thanks to Hayley for helping coordinate). Once they were out, they did the job quickly and efficiently, completing everything over a few days.One of the cool things is they apparently are the only fence company out here that installs the privacy fences by driving in posts vs. digging holes and pouring concrete. So the installation was really clean and the final result is very solid and sturdy. Along the way, they were patient and happy to answer all the random questions I had, and were a real pleasure to work with. Thank you!

Fantastic experience with Leading Edge! I loved the technology available to help me determine if this was a project I could undertake. After reviewing the initial ballpark estimate on their website, I connected with the team. Multiple options were presented and Wesley helped my finetune what I was trying to accomplish with my fencing. Scheduling and communicating was fast and easy. The timeline for install was clearly relayed and the install went great. I am so pleased with the appearance and the quality of the materials used.

Wes and the team at Leading Edge Fence and Gates were extraordinary! Everyone was professional, kind, and helpful. The quote received was very reasonable/competitive and work was scheduled a few weeks after. The team was on time for the project and kept me updated throughout. They were efficient with the work, which was completed in a day and a half. The quality of the wood used for our split rail fence is top notch, and they did a great job cleaning up after completion of the project. 10/10 would recommend Wes and the team to anyone in the MOT area to have fencing/gates installed!

We asked and wise advise with experience was given regarding how far from the property line would be good footage. We received installation of our white vinyl L shaped fence in a timely and professional manner. From the secretary gathering basic information in early November 2022 to more detailed information by the Installer. The experience went smoothly, ending in early December 2022. When enquiry was made, Leading Edge Fence & Gates were recommended to my neighbors.

Talk about quality work, these guys are the best. I was able to use their fence budget tool on their website and got a estimate right away. They came out and got rid of our 20 year old wood split rail and put in a beautiful black aluminum. The crew was very professional and hard working. The whole project was done in 2 days. That consist of taking down the old fence and installing the new. Looks so great that my cousin is getting a new fence from them also.

Great experience installing a wood split rail fence around a portion of my new property for a dog run. Wes helped us decide where to install the fence on the property, workable size, and answered all questions. He was even able to accommodate us moving up the proposed date to work better in line with our sooner then expected settlement date. His guys completed the fence in a matter of hours and ensured everything was completed as expected. We will use them in the future for our fencing needs.

Wes and his team were a dream to work with. They were responsive and polite from start to finish. We had a bit of a hiccup with the town and an unresolved fencing permit - but Wes took care of it for us and we did not have to pay the fine! We really appreciate the exceptional customer service, which is hard to find lately. We are just in love with our fence - and so are our dogs!

My grandparents live in the Delaware area and needed to get a fence & gate installed for more privacy. They're not great with technology so they asked me to help find someone to come out. After a lengthy search, I came across Leading Edge. They had the best reviews I could find. Wesley and his team were awesome. They put together a very fair quote and were incredibly responsive to my grandparents. I'd absolutely send anyone their way that asked me for a recommendation!
