We have been installing fences in Evansville Indiana since 2001.

Since then, we have established ourselves as one of the most reliable, most trusted fencing contractors in the entire Evansville Indiana area.

We meet all licensing and insurance requirements for each municipality where we install fences in Evansville Indiana.

Each municipality has different requirements for contractors, so feel free to speak with us directly about the requirements for your town. We will be happy to provide proof of insurance and licensure information.

This is an excellent thing to do when hiring any contractor, not just a fencing contractor. Unfortunately, there are a large number of unlicensed and uninsured contractors doing work across Evansville Indiana. Many homeowners and business owners don't understand the risk they are taking by hiring such a company.

Absolutely! As one of the most trusted fencing contractors in the entire Evansville Indiana area, we stand behind our work.

Warranty on Fence Materials

Each fence type and fence manufacturer is different. Our fence experts will guide you to the best solution for your situation - making sure you receive the maximum protection and peace-of-mind for your fence!

Workmanship Warranty on Fence Installations

Our installers are expertly trained for all types of fencing. We are experienced with the specific soil conditions and other factors that impact the strength and resilience of fences installed in the Evansville Indiana area. We stand behind our work and offer a workmanship warranty on all residential and commercial fences we install. Please talk to our fence experts to get the full details of the workmanship warranty for your specific project, and feel confident that working with Mr. Fence means you never have to worry about our quality or our support!

Prices on fences are highly dependent on the type of fence you choose and the amount of fencing you need as well as the exact style, height, and options you select.

We provide fencing quotes for free! Simply reach out to our team through our online form or give us a call and our team of friendly, experienced staff will be glad to walk you through the process and plan a consultation.

For your convenience, this is a very general guide to how the different types of fencing stack up to each other in terms of pricing:

Aluminum Fence

Expensive initial investment. However, because these fences require no maintenance and usually come with a lifetime warranty - over time, these fences can often provide the best value. There is also some evidence that aluminum fences have the most positive impact on the resale value of a home, if you ever choose to move.

Chain Link Fence

Chain link fencing is very common across Evansville Indiana because it is so versatile and so affordable as compared to just about every other fencing option. Adding upgrades and options will increase the cost of the fence to be more comparable to other types, but it's usually still the lowest priced option.

Ornamental Steel Fences

Ornamental steel fencing is one of the more costly types of fencing in the Evansville Indiana region due to the weight and strength of the metal and the craftsmanship it takes to build. When you are in the market for a new fence, speak to our fence professionals who can help you get a quote for whichever types of fencing you're looking for and help you find the perfect fit for your goals and your budget.

Vinyl Fence

Once a very expensive option, standard styles and colors of vinyl fencing may actually be cheaper than other options! Together with impressive warranties, long lifespans, and low-maintenance costs - vinyl fences are a great solution for many different situations.

Wood Fences

The cost of wood has increased tremendously in recent years, so it's hard to make a general statement about how wood stacks up to the cost of the other typers of fencing materials. While it does tend to be lower in price than the other options, the cost gap has definitely shrunk. It is also worth noting that there are real costs to treating, cleaning, and maintaining a wood fence over time.

We are asked this question all the time. The truth is that aluminum fences, chain link fences, ornamental steel fences, vinyl fences and wood fences, are all very popular choices in Evansville Indiana.

What we can tell you is the most popular style of each type of fencing:

3-Rail Black Aluminum Fence

This is the workhorse of aluminum fencing. Used for both residential and commercial applications, people all across Evansville Indiana choose this aluminum fence style for perimeter fencing around their yard, to protect pools, for decorative applications, and more.

Vinyl Coated Chain Link Fence

Chain link fencing protected by PVC (or vinyl) colored coating looks great and lasts a very long time! No matter where you go in Evansville Indiana these chain link fences are everywhere!

Standard Wood Privacy Fence

The standard 6 ft. wood privacy fence is the style of fence that literally represents the entire industry. For many people, when you close your eyes and imagine a "normal fence" this is the image that many people across Evansville Indiana see.

Standard 6 ft. White Vinyl Privacy Fence

Similar in style, design, and purpose to the standard wood privacy fence, the white vinyl version adds the additional benefit of coming with a strong warranty and is maintenance free! It's no wonder so many people across Evansville Indiana choose the standard white vinyl privacy fence.

While we install fences across nearly every corner of Evansville Indiana, we do understand that many homeowners and business owners want to know a little more about our experience and reputation in their specific town. No problem! Let's do this!

It depends on several items, but the team at Mr. Fence is very fast and efficient. Most residential projects in Evansville Indiana are completed in one day with our unique installation techniques. We use a dry pack post setting method and our own proprietary concrete mix, enabling us to set our posts and build our fence in the same day.

Our aluminum fences, chain link fences, and vinyl fences require virtually no maintenance. They may need to be cleaned every once in a while, but that's it! Wood fences require regular staining to prevent the wood from splitting, cracking, and rotting. Our pre-stained wood fences can help you get a jump start on wood fence maintenance!

Fences can be cleaned using a gentle cleanser and water. It is recommended that you wash white vinyl fences every two years, at least, for maximum beauty. Occasionally, fences may become stained, but this can be removed using a sponge and some soap or a Magic Eraser. More information about routine maintenance can be found on our individual fence pages.

Most of the residential fences we install in Indiana are on sloped or rolling terrain. All of our residential fencing options are designed to follow the grade without leaving gaps.

Fences, like most outdoor improvements, will add to the curb appeal and ultimately increase the salability. Should you decide to sell your home, Evansville Indiana fences can add privacy and security, which are attractive to potential buyers. On the other hand, a lower quality, weathered, or poorly installed fence may detract from the value of the home.

We are very familiar with the local pool codes in nearly every Tri-State area town. Most of our "pool" styles will meet local codes. Keep in mind that nearly all the "privacy" styles meet the standards as well.

Generally, 6' tall is the highest height for residential settings. When considering a wood fence, vinyl fence, or aluminum fence, 6' tall is common for privacy, and a 4' height is most common for decorative purposes and to keep small kids and pets in the yard. For a pool fence, 5' or 6' tall fences are required in some areas as a minimum height. Although some areas only require a 5' fence around a pool, we recommend 6' tall to put in the safest product possible to keep everyone safe. We can customize your fence to any height you desire.

Yes! At Mr. Fence, we have custom routing machines that will allow us to make a custom fence to match your existing fence, even if that style is no longer available. ActiveYards fences can often be modified and changed to add new features or swap out old rails. Contact Mr. Fence fencing contractors and tell us the age and type of fence you currently want to work around. We can help you to plan your fencing project right here in Evansville Indiana.

We provide residential fencing quotes for free! Simply reach out to our team through our online form or give us a call, and our team of friendly, experienced staff will be glad to walk you through the process and plan a consultation.

Important!

We encourage you to speak with one of our fence experts before focusing solely on price! There are cheaper and lower-quality residential fence brands available that are less durable, more prone to fading and bending, and have limited (if any) warranty. The team at Mr. Fence doesn't use them.

There are also inexperienced and unprofessional fence installers who continually cut corners and don't stand behind their work (regardless of what their so-called warranty says).

Residential fences must stand up to the physical demands of the Evansville Indiana climate and physical abuse from falling branches, landscapers, neighbors, animals, and more.

Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to make a decision about the fence you want to protect and beautify your property.

When looking for a residential fence, it usually takes only a few days for one of our fence experts to walk your property and give you a detailed estimate of your Evansville Indiana residential fence project.

You can also call us to get even faster answers from our fence experts!

Once you approve the estimate, we can often install residential fences in Evansville Indiana within 1 to 3 weeks, but please check with our office about your specific project. There are times throughout the year when that timeframe can be shorter or longer.

There are other things that can delay the start of a fencing project. If you select a residential fence style, color, or customization option that needs to be specially ordered, your fence installation may be delayed. Like nearly every fencing contractor in the Evansville Indiana, we do not stock a large amount of custom residential fencing options. We will help you to identify, in advance, any of your choices that are likely to cause these additional delays, and we will offer alternatives whenever possible.

Make it Easy on Yourself!

Our residential fence experts will gladly come to your property, take all the measurements you need, and help you design your fence! We are a full-service fence company that specializes in residential fence installation. With our team, you do not need to work hard to get a great new fence to protect your home or business.

DIY Fence Estimate

If you'd like to get a rough idea on your own about how much fencing you will need, follow these easy steps:

If you happen to know the dimensions of the area you wish to enclose, simply add the length of each side together. Use a tape measure, but rough estimates are fine, and there is no need to be too precise at this stage.

Be sure to subtract the length of any structures (like a building or a storage shed that will serve as part of the barrier). This will give you a rough estimate as to how much fencing you will need.

Subtract the length of any gates you will be using. The gates are often priced much differently than the fencing is. For this reason, we usually recommend that property owners list the gates separately. A standard residential walk gate is approximately 4 feet wide, and a standard residential drive gate can easily be 10 feet wide or more.

Caution!

Residential fencing is priced and sold by SECTIONS, not by linear feet! Even when the linear footage is included specifically in price estimates, the total number of residential fence sections is a factor in this pricing. So, the price per linear foot is only a rough estimate and rarely represents the actual cost of the finished residential fence!

This is a very interesting difference that we would love to explore more with you if you are interested. Beware, price per linear foot is a ploy that many unprofessional fence installers in the Evansville Indiana area use!

Every local municipality in Evansville Indiana has a separate set of requirements when it comes to building permits, and that includes residential fencing. Sometimes, the specific height of the fence, placement of the fence, or purpose of the fence can impact the need for a permit. There are also HOA considerations in some areas.

We have installed many residential fences in nearly every area across Evansville Indiana, so we are happy to answer these sorts of questions and/or guide you through the process for your specific situation. This is one of the benefits of working with Mr. Fence!

Fence placement is ultimately the responsibility of you, the customer. Moving a fence after it's already been installed can be costly. It's never a bad idea to get a survey to be safe.

Fencing is one of the easiest industries to “get into� for start-up businesses and novice laborers. For these people who are looking to make a few extra dollars installing fences, a shovel, a level, and a string line may be all they need.

As a result, there are many individuals and/or companies who show up in Evansville Indiana, install residential fences for a short time, then disappear. We see it all the time. You only want to work with a fully licensed and insured fencing contractor in Evansville Indiana.

Here are some of the main pitfalls of working with non-professionals:

The Residential Fence Warranty is Void

If the company that installed your residential fence isn't still in business in several years, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly, which is fairly common.

The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long

As a professional fencing contractor, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. We are dedicated to improving our knowledge and skills of the best fencing materials and the best fence installation techniques for residential fencing in order to maximize the strength and life of your fence. Companies that simply install fences as something they do on the side usually have no idea how much they actually don't know about residential fencing or what is best for you and your property.

Putting Your Property at Risk

Installing residential fences in the Evansville Indiana area is actually somewhat risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the installation of a fence can blow materials, damaging your business or customer's cars. We've seen concrete splatter up onto cars or drip down long stretches of walkways and driveways while wet concrete or other materials are being transported. The secondary damage to businesses or your customers' vehicles by poorly trained labor is a common occurrence.

Additionally, anyone hurt on your property while they are working puts you at risk! If you hire an unqualified fencing contractor, you may be liable.

At first glance, hiring a "cheaper" fence company to install your residential fence may appear to save you a few dollars, but in the long run, it is almost certainly a price that you simply cannot afford to pay!

Generally, 6' tall is the highest height for residential settings. When considering a wood fence, vinyl fence, or aluminum fence, 6' tall is common for privacy, and a 4' height is most common for decorative purposes and to keep small kids and pets in the yard. For a pool fence, 5' or 6' tall fences are required in some areas as a minimum height.

Important!

We encourage you to speak with one of our commercial fence experts before focusing solely on price! There are cheaper, very poor quality fence materials available that will not last. We don't use them. There are also very inexperienced and unprofessional fence installers who continually cut corners and don't stand behind their work (regardless of what their so-called-warranty says).

Commercial fences must stand up to Evansville Indiana high winds, harsh weather, and physical abuse from employees, customers, landscaping companies, animals, and more. Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to make a decision about the fence you want to protect and beautify your business or property.

We understand for businesses in Evansville Indiana - you need a great fence and you can't wait forever to get it!

Once you approve the estimate, we can often install commercial fences in most of Evansville Indiana within 1 to 3 weeks, but please check with our office of your specific project. There are times throughout the year where that timeframe may be less, or it may be longer.

There are "other" things that can delay the start of a fencing project. If you select a fencing material, style, color, or options that need to be special ordered; that will often delay the installation of your fence. These materials come from various manufacturers and are beyond our control. We will help you to identify, in advance, any of your choices that are known to be likely to cause these additional delays, and we will offer alternatives whenever possible.

There are many small fence companies in Evansville Indiana that list commercial fencing as one of their services.

Yes, ActiveYards aluminum fences can be installed on decks and patios or attached to columns. However, there are additional parts and procedures required to install the fence properly. We suggest you consult with a Mr. Fence consultant for assistance by calling (812) 425-3550.

A bi-annual rinse with a garden hose is all the maintenance you should need for your aluminum fence. If debris like grass or dirt has built up, a wipe-down with soapy water will easily do the trick. Over time, some hardware around the gate may need a replacement.

Yes! We are a leading aluminum fencing contractor across the entire Evansville Indiana area.

Our crews are experienced and specially trained in the latest techniques for installing aluminum fences, ensuring your fence is installed properly, will look great, function properly, and hold up to the harsh weather in Evansville Indiana.

Aluminum fencing is a popular option for homes and businesses in the Evansville Indiana region. Aluminum fences are strong yet lightweight. With their durable protective coating, aluminum fences easily stand up to the harsh weather conditions of Evansville Indiana.

While other fence materials are initially less expensive, aluminum fencing requires essentially zero maintenance. Over time, aluminum fencing is actually a less expensive fencing material in terms of time and maintenance cost savings.

If a maintenance-free, elegant-looking fence is what you want, look no further than aluminum fencing.

Aluminum fences are very durable! Don't let the lightweight nature fool you. Aluminum is a very strong material used in airplanes, cars, and many other items that are designed to protect you. Aluminum fencing is more than strong and durable enough to protect your home or business while standing strong in the face of the Evansville Indiana weather. Typical physical abuse from falling limbs, landscapers, kids, animals, neighbors, and more is usually no problem for our professional-quality aluminum fencing.

We should mention that some discount fencing contractors in Evansville Indiana are known to undercut prices by using lower-quality aluminum fencing, which absolutely does not hold up as well. Be careful; you get what you pay for!

Prices on aluminum fences are highly dependent on the amount of fencing you need as well as the exact style, height, and customization options you select.

We provide aluminum fencing quotes for free! Simply reach out to our team through our online form or give us a call, and our team of friendly, experienced staff will be glad to walk you through the process and plan a consultation.

Important!

We encourage you to speak with one of our fence experts before focusing solely on price! There are cheaper, lower-quality aluminum fence brands available that are less durable, more prone to fading and bending, and have limited (if any) warranty. The team at Mr. Fence doesn’t use them.

There are also inexperienced and unprofessional fence installers who continually cut corners and don't stand behind their work (regardless of what their so-called warranty says).

Aluminum fences must stand up to the physical demands of the Evansville Indiana climate and physical abuse from falling branches, landscapers, neighbors, animals, and more.

Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to make a decision about the fence you want to protect and beautify your property.

Aluminum fences require very little maintenance. Aluminum is naturally rust and corrosion-resistant. In addition, our professional-quality aluminum fencing has been factory-treated to further prevent rust and corrosion while resisting color fading and dull finish issues that are more common with lower-quality aluminum fencing.

For this reason, an occasional rinse with a water hose, a gentle, non-abrasive home cleanser, and a sponge should be sufficient. Apart from that, you should not need to do anything except enjoy your beautiful aluminum fence!

Our aluminum fences are powder-coated at the factory. It's accomplished by applying an electrostatically charged powder to the metal and baking it into a smooth coating. A powder coating prevents corrosion and makes regular maintenance a breeze by sealing in the final color under a chemically bonded protective layer.

If you are considering an aluminum fence for your Evansville Indiana property, then you want to protect the beauty and durability of your fence with a powder coating. At Mr. Fence, we only sell and install powder-coated aluminum fences for both residential and commercial applications so you can enjoy your aluminum fence stress-free.

Whether you need a residential aluminum fence or a commercial-grade aluminum fence, it usually takes only a few days for one of our fence experts to walk your property and give you a detailed estimate of your Evansville Indiana aluminum fence project.

You can also call us to get even faster answers from our fence experts!

Once you approve the estimate, we can often install aluminum fences in Evansville Indiana within 1 to 3 weeks, but please check with our office about your specific project. There are times throughout the year when that timeframe can be shorter or longer.

There are other things that can delay the start of a fencing project. If you select an aluminum fence style, color, or customization option that needs to be specially ordered, your fence installation may be delayed. Like nearly every fencing contractor in the Evansville Indiana, we do not stock a large amount of custom aluminum fencing options. We will help you to identify, in advance, any of your choices that are likely to cause these additional delays, and we will offer alternatives whenever possible.

Make it Easy on Yourself!

We are a full-service fence company that specializes in aluminum fence installation. With our team, you do not need to work hard to get a great new fence to protect your home or business.

DIY Fence Estimate

If you'd like to get a rough idea on your own about how much fencing you will need, follow these easy steps:

If you happen to know the dimensions of the area you wish to enclose, simply add the length of each side together. Use a tape measure, but rough estimates are fine, and there is no need to be too precise at this stage.

Be sure to subtract the length of any structures (like a building or a storage shed that will serve as part of the barrier). This will give you a rough estimate as to how much fencing you will need.

Subtract the length of any gates you will be using. The gates are often priced much differently than the fencing is. For this reason, we usually recommend that property owners list the gates separately. A standard aluminum walk gate is approximately 4 feet wide, and a standard aluminum drive gate can easily be 10 feet wide or more.

Caution!

Aluminum fencing is priced and sold by SECTIONS, not by linear feet! Even when the linear footage is included specifically in price estimates, the total number of aluminum fence sections is a factor in this pricing. So, the price per linear foot is only a rough estimate and rarely represents the actual cost of the finished aluminum fence!

This is a very interesting difference that we would love to explore more with you if you are interested. Beware, price per linear foot is a ploy that many unprofessional fence installers in the Evansville Indiana area use!

Aluminum fencing is unique in its ability to be utilized for such a wide array of applications. Listed below are some of the most popular applications of aluminum fencing:

Decorative Aluminum Fencing

For many, there is just no other fence type as elegant or decorative as black aluminum fencing to provide that perfect accent to their property or a section of the property.

Aluminum Pool Fencing

One of the most common uses of aluminum fencing in the Evansville Indiana area is to protect and beautify a pool area. Non-corrosive and beautiful, aluminum fences are easy to see beyond (allowing you to monitor the area). In our opinion, aluminum fences were literally made for pools.

Aluminum Perimeter Fencing

Typically used for higher-priced homes and beautiful settings all across Evansville Indiana, 4-foot, 5-foot, and even 6-foot (or taller) aluminum fencing can provide a strong, beautiful, and secure perimeter to your property.

Every local municipality in Evansville Indiana has a separate set of requirements when it comes to building permits, and that includes aluminum fencing. Sometimes, the specific height of the fence, placement of the fence, or purpose of the fence can impact the need for a permit. There are also HOA considerations in some areas.

We have installed many aluminum fences in nearly every area across Evansville Indiana, so we are happy to answer these sorts of questions and/or guide you through the process for your specific situation. This is one of the benefits of working with Mr. Fence!

The best way to get specific answers quickly and accurately is to simply call your town building code office.

Fence placement is ultimately the responsibility of you, the customer. Moving a fence after it's already been installed can be costly. It's never a bad idea to get a survey to be safe. In some cases, the property lines are clear and well-marked, and in these cases, paying for a survey is probably not necessary.

There are many small fence companies in Evansville Indiana that install aluminum fencing. Very few of them specifically train their teams on the best installation techniques and practices for installing aluminum fencing. Unfortunately, this means that your aluminum fence is likely not installed as securely as it could be, which can reduce the quality and lifespan of your fence.

Inferior installation techniques and improper tools can also damage the aluminum fence during installation, which may have the unfortunate impact of voiding the manufacturer's warranty.

When shopping for an aluminum fence in Evansville Indiana, be sure to choose a reliable fence company that has a reliable reputation. Here are some of the most common pitfalls of using an unreliable, unlicensed, or uninsured aluminum fencing contractor:

The Aluminum Fence Warranty is Void

If the company that installed your aluminum fence isn't still in business in several years, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly, which is fairly common.

The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long

As a professional fencing contractor, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. We are dedicated to improving our knowledge and skills of the best fencing materials and the best fence installation techniques for aluminum fencing in order to maximize the strength and life of your fence. Companies that simply install fences as something they do on the side usually have no idea how much they actually don't know about aluminum fencing or what is best for you and your property.

Putting Your Property at Risk

Installing aluminum fences in the Evansville Indiana area is actually somewhat risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the installation of a fence can blow materials, damaging your business or customer's cars. We've seen concrete splatter up onto cars or drip down long stretches of walkways and driveways while wet concrete or other materials are being transported. The secondary damage to businesses or your customers' vehicles by poorly trained labor is a common occurrence.

Additionally, anyone hurt on your property while they are working puts you at risk! If you hire an unqualified fencing contractor, you may be liable.

At first glance, hiring a "cheaper" fence company to install your aluminum fence may appear to save you a few dollars, but in the long run, it is almost certainly a price that you simply cannot afford to pay!

It depends on several items, but the team at Mr. Fence is very fast and efficient. Most residential projects in Evansville Indiana are completed in one day with our unique installation techniques. We use a dry pack post setting method and our own proprietary concrete mix, enabling us to set our posts and build our fence on the same day.

When installing wood fences, vinyl fences, aluminum fences, and chain link fences, we use our own Mr. Fence concrete formulation, which allows us to get better compaction in the footer to prevent frost heave. This procedure reduces the likelihood of frost heave caused by the freezing and thawing of the ground during seasonal changes. The concrete will be completely set in a week or two.

Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to make a decision about the fence you want to protect and beautify your property.

Chain link fences require very little maintenance. Our professional-quality chain link fencing has been factory-treated to prevent rust and corrosion and can be further enhanced with a protective colored vinyl coating.

For this reason, we recommend clearing debris away from the bottom of the fence and occasionally rinsing the fence with a hose. Apart from that, you should not need to do anything except enjoy your beautiful chain link fence!

PVC-coated chain link fencing (sometimes called vinyl-coated chain link fencing) has a beautiful, colored coating. The PVC coating is more than a simple color choice; vinyl coating a chain link fence greatly increases the rust and corrosion resistance of the fence.

PVC-coated chain link fences are very popular in the Evansville Indiana area. Thanks to their smooth texture, they are particularly popular for athletic fields, pool areas, and anywhere else where children are commonly found. These PVC coatings are applied at the factory for maximum quality and protection.

A tension wire can be added to the bottom of the chain link mesh to keep it from being pushed out by children or animals. If a tension wire is not enough, a bottom rail could also be installed for an even stronger barrier.

Yes, they do!

Many local businesses in Evansville Indiana choose a decorative fence to create a welcoming entrance to their property.

While decorative fencing primarily focuses on aesthetics, it can still provide a certain level of security to your property.

If security is your primary concern, we recommend taller fence styles like a privacy fence.

The lifespan of a decorative fence depends on the material used. Generally, durable materials like vinyl and aluminum can last for many years with proper maintenance. Wood decorative fences can also last for many years, depending on the quality of the wood used and how frequently you maintain the fence.

Failure to obtain the necessary permits and comply with building codes may result in fines or the need to remove or modify the fence.

Yes, security fences in Evansville Indiana are typically installed near property lines to create a secure border around your yard, home, or commercial yard. We always recommend that your fence is installed within your property to prevent the fence from becoming shared with your neighbors.

The height of semi-privacy fences can vary depending on individual preferences and local regulations. In residential settings, semi-privacy fences are often around 4 to 6 feet tall. This height provides an adequate level of privacy while still allowing some space to have gaps between the boards or pickets to allow for openness.

Yes, semi-privacy fences are designed to withstand various weather conditions. The specific durability depends on the material chosen for the fence.

With ActiveYards' Glidelock technology, vinyl pickets will not blow apart with high winds. In high winds, vinyl pickets can bow and come out of the rail. To prevent that, we use ActiveYards' Stay Straight technology, which uses rail locks to lock the rails together so they will not come out of the posts. These features make vinyl fences incredibly strong, while StaySquare technology fortifies the gates. Optional steel posts can be used to prevent the posts from bowing at the ground.

A wood fence has natural characteristics and beauty that most people love to look at. Wood also warps, cracks, checks, splits, and rots, which may not be what you expected. Vinyl fencing is clean, neat, and durable with a lifetime warranty and will stay looking like the original install for many years. Wood fencing needs to be stained, sealed, and protected within two weeks, which can be costly. This will need to be repeated every 3 to 4 years. The cost breakeven point is in about 5 to 7 years. If you have your wood fence any longer than that, it is actually more expensive than a vinyl fence.

Yes, we do. Our ActiveYards Cambium wood grain fencing is available for special order. We highly recommend Cambium vinyl fencing if you want a durable, high-security fence that looks like wood without all the maintenance. Cambium is much more durable and offers better protection than wood fences. It closely resembles redwood, saddlewood, and birchwood. This is a great alternative to installing a wood fence on your property.

Semi-privacy fencing is available in the same heights as full privacy fencing, but the pickets are narrower and spaced farther apart. This makes these types of vinyl fences good for access control around the periphery of your property but not ideal for use around areas where prying eyes might be problematic.

Solid privacy fencing resembles semi-privacy fencing in many ways, but the pickets are wider and are installed edge to edge, creating a solid visibility blockage. These fencing options are excellent choices for use around areas where you don't want passersby or neighbors to see into your yard.

Our crews are experienced and specially trained in the latest techniques for installing vinyl fences, ensuring your fence is installed properly, will look great, function properly, and hold up to the harsh weather in Evansville Indiana.

Vinyl fencing is a popular option for homes and businesses in the Evansville Indiana region. Vinyl fences are strong enough to stand-up to the harsh weather conditions of Evansville Indiana.

Vinyl fencing requires nearly zero maintenance. Over time, vinyl fencing is actually a less expensive fencing material than many of the other alternatives in terms of time and cost savings of paints that wood fences require.

If a maintenance-free, clean, and modern fence is what you want, look no further than vinyl fencing.

Vinyl lasts a long time, so you don't have to generate or consume new resources by replacing the fence. Additionally, they can be recycled after you're done using the fence. There's no need to paint it or treat it with other chemicals. Vinyl fencing is one of the most eco-friendly alternatives available.

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), the plastic most often used to make a vinyl fence, ranks third among the world's most manufactured synthetic plastics. PVC can be used to create beautiful fences in a number of designs, but vinyl also has many other applications in the building industry, including in windows, pipelines, and other items.

Vinyl fencing is one of the most eco-friendly fencing materials available.

Vinyl l has a very long lifespan, so you won't have to consume additional resources replacing the fence, and it can be recycled after you're done with it. Recycled vinyl fencing is often used in the next generation of vinyl fences, making it a great option for those who are environmentally aware!

Vinyl fencing does not require harsh cleaners, paints, or sealers, which can be a benefit to your immediate environment and to the health of your family and pets.

PVC, the material used to make vinyl fences, is nonporous, meaning it does not absorb paint. When it comes to fences, many Evansville Indiana residents select vinyl specifically because it never needs painting or staining or sealing. Unlike wood fences, vinyl fences retain their original color and shine for the duration of their life span.

While vinyl fences can't be painted, there are a number of different colors and styles available to customize your fence to match your home and your personal style preferences.

Vinyl fences are an excellent choice for property owners looking for privacy. By far, the most popular privacy fence across Evansville Indiana is the standard 6ft white vinyl privacy fence. However, there are many other options! Taller fences give even more privacy. You can also choose semi-privacy options that obscure most of the view into your yard but also have decorative design features and come in many popular color choices.

Prices on vinyl fences are highly dependent on the amount of fencing you need, as well as the exact style, height, and customization options you select.

We provide vinyl fencing quotes for free! Simply reach out to our team through our online form or give us a call, and our team of friendly, experienced staff will be glad to walk you through the process and plan a consultation.

Another huge benefit to your immediate environment and to the health of your family and pets is that vinyl fencing does not require harsh cleaners, or paint, or sealers.

Important!

We encourage you to speak with one of our fence experts before focusing solely on price! There are cheaper and lower-quality vinyl fence brands available that are less durable, more prone to fading and bending, and have limited (if any) warranty. The team at Mr. Fence doesn't use them.

There are also inexperienced and unprofessional fence installers who continually cut corners and don't stand behind their work (regardless of what their so-called warranty says).

Vinyl fences must stand up to the physical demands of the Evansville Indiana climate and physical abuse from falling branches, landscapers, neighbors, animals, and more.

Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to make a decision about the fence you want to protect and beautify your property.

Vinyl fences require very little maintenance. Vinyl doesn't rust and doesn't splinter. An occasional mild rinse with a water hose, a gentle, non-abrasive home cleaner, and a sponge should be sufficient. Apart from that, you should not need to do anything except enjoy your beautiful vinyl fence!

Whether you need a residential vinyl fence or a commercial-grade vinyl fence, it usually takes only a few days for one of our fence experts to walk your property and give you a detailed estimate of your Evansville Indiana vinyl fence project.

Once you approve the estimate, we can often install vinyl fences in Evansville Indiana within 1 to 3 weeks, but please check with our office about your specific project. There are times throughout the year when that timeframe can be shorter or longer.

There are other things that can delay the start of a fencing project. If you select a vinyl fence style, color, or customization option that needs to be specially ordered, your fence installation may be delayed. Like nearly every fencing contractor in the Evansville Indiana, we do not stock a large amount of custom vinyl fencing options. We will help you to identify, in advance, any of your choices that are likely to cause these additional delays, and we will offer alternatives whenever possible.

DIY Fence Estimate

If you'd like to get a rough idea on your own about how much fencing you will need, follow these easy steps:

If you happen to know the dimensions of the area you wish to enclose, simply add the length of each side together. Use a tape measure, but rough estimates are fine, and there is no need to be too precise at this stage.

Be sure to subtract the length of any structures (like a building or a storage shed that will serve as part of the barrier). This will give you a rough estimate as to how much fencing you will need.

Subtract the length of any gates you will be using. The gates are often priced much differently than the fencing is. For this reason, we usually recommend that property owners list the gates separately. A standard vinyl walk gate is approximately 4 feet wide, and a standard vinyl drive gate can easily be 10 feet wide or more.

Caution!

Vinyl fencing is priced and sold by SECTIONS, not by linear feet! Even when the linear footage is included specifically on price estimates, the total number of vinyl fence sections is a factor in this pricing. So, the price per linear foot is only a rough estimate and rarely represents the actual cost of the finished vinyl fence!

This is a very interesting difference that we would love to explore more with you if you are interested. Beware, price per linear foot is a ploy that many unprofessional fence installers in the Evansville Indiana area use!

Vinyl fencing is unique in its ability to be utilized for such a wide array of applications. Listed below are some of the most popular applications of vinyl fencing:

Decorative Vinyl Fencing

There are many decorative styles of vinyl fencing that are perfect for showcase areas of a property or to set-off a section of your yard.

Vinyl Pool Fencing

One of the most common uses of vinyl fencing in the Evansville Indiana area is to protect and beautify a pool area. Vinyl fencing is a great choice for residential pools and commercial pools because it is corrosion-resistant and add privacy.

Vinyl Perimeter Fencing

Vinyl fencing is unique for the outstanding privacy it offers while also being maintenance-free. 6-foot white vinyl privacy fences are the most popular perimeter fencing option in Evansville Indiana.

Every local municipality in Evansville Indiana has a separate set of requirements when it comes to building permits, and that includes vinyl fencing. Sometimes, the specific height of the fence, placement of the fence, or purpose of the fence can impact the need for a permit. There are also HOA considerations in some areas.

We have installed many vinyl fences in nearly every area across Evansville Indiana, so we are happy to answer these sorts of questions and/or guide you through the process for your specific situation. This is one of the benefits of working with Mr. Fence!

The best way to get specific answers quickly and accurately is to simply call your town building code office.

There is no bad time of year to get a vinyl fence in Evansville Indiana. As professional fencing contractors, we build fences across Evansville Indiana all year!

There are certain times during the year when our installation schedule is busier, but our fence team always does its best to get your fence installed right when you need it. Reach out today to find out what our current schedule looks like! We always have room for one more fence!

Fence placement is ultimately the responsibility of you, the customer. Moving a fence after it's already been installed can be costly. It's never a bad idea to get a survey to be safe. In some cases, the property lines are clear and well-marked, and in these cases, paying for a survey is probably not necessary.

There are many small fence companies in Evansville Indiana that install vinyl fencing. Very few of them specifically train their teams on the best installation techniques and practices for installing vinyl fencing. Unfortunately, this means that your vinyl fence is likely not installed as securely as it could be, which can reduce the quality and lifespan of your fence.

Inferior installation techniques and improper tools can also damage the vinyl fence during installation, which may have the unfortunate impact of voiding the manufacturer's warranty.

When shopping for a vinyl fence in Evansville Indiana, be sure to choose a reliable fence company that has a reliable reputation. Here are some of the most common pitfalls of using an unreliable, unlicensed, or uninsured vinyl fencing contractor:

The Vinyl Fence Warranty is Void

If the company that installed your vinyl fence isn't still in business in several years, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly, which is fairly common.

The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long

'As a professional fencing contractor, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. We are dedicated to improving our knowledge and skills of the best fencing materials and the best fence installation techniques for vinyl fencing in order to maximize the strength and life of your fence. Companies that simply install fences as something they do on the side usually have no idea how much they actually don't know about vinyl fencing or what is best for you and your property.

Putting Your Property at Risk

Installing vinyl fences in the Evansville Indiana area is actually somewhat risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the installation of a fence can blow materials, damaging your business or customer's cars. We've seen concrete splatter up onto cars or drip down long stretches of walkways and driveways while wet concrete or other materials are being transported. The secondary damage to businesses or your customers' vehicles by poorly trained labor is a common occurrence.

Additionally, anyone hurt on your property while they are working puts you at risk! If you hire an unqualified fencing contractor, you may be liable.

At first glance, hiring a "cheaper" fence company to install your vinyl fence may appear to save you a few dollars, but in the long run, it is almost certainly a price that you simply cannot afford to pay!

Pressure-treated wood fences are a common choice for Evansville Indiana wood fences. However, any water absorbed by the wood evaporates at an inconsistent rate, causing warping, cracking, and twisting. Staining and sealing the fence can help reduce the severity of the splintering and cracking but will not fully prevent it.

On the other hand, cedar pickets are a longer-lasting option that is less prone to warping, splitting, and cracking. However, like all wood, cedar will eventually rot. We recommend staining and sealing your new cedar fence within two weeks of installation to help prevent this or choosing pre-stained wood.

A wood fence has natural characteristics and beauty that most people love to look at. Wood also warps, cracks, checks, splits, and rots, which may not be what you expected. Vinyl fencing is clean, neat, and durable with a lifetime warranty and will stay looking like the original install for many years. Wood fencing needs to be stained, sealed, and protected within two weeks, which can be costly. This will need to be repeated every 3 to 4 years. The cost breakeven point is in about 5 to 7 years. If you have your wood fence any longer than that, it is actually more expensive than a vinyl fence.

When installing wood fences, vinyl fences, aluminum fences, and chain link fences, we use our own Mr. Fence concrete formulation, which allows us to get better compaction in the footer to prevent frost heave. This procedure reduces the likelihood of frost heave caused by the freezing and thawing of the ground during seasonal changes. The concrete will be completely set in a week or two.

It depends on several items, but the team at Mr. Fence is very fast and efficient. Most residential projects in Evansville Indiana are completed in one day with our unique installation techniques. We use a dry pack post setting method and our own proprietary concrete mix, enabling us to set our posts and build our fence on the same day.

Yes, we do. Our ActiveYards Cambium wood grain fencing is available for special order. We highly recommend Cambium vinyl fencing if you want a durable, high-security fence that looks like wood without all the maintenance. Cambium is much more durable and offers better protection than wood fences. It closely resembles redwood, saddlewood, and birchwood. This is a great alternative to installing a wood fence on your property.

Our crews are experienced and specially trained in the latest techniques for installing wood fences, ensuring your fence is installed properly, will look great, function properly, and hold up to the harsh weather in Evansville Indiana.

Pricing on all fencing materials can fluctuate, but generally speaking, the up-front cost of wood fencing is usually lower than other types of fencing. Keep in mind that wood fencing needs to be maintained by sealing and staining it over time, so its maintenance should be considered in the total cost of your purchase.

Your wood fence should be protected with a high-quality stain and sealer. Proper care and maintenance of your wood fence will extend the life of your fence for many years to come!

The harsh weather conditions in Evansville Indiana can severely impact wood fences that are not properly cared for. Speak to one of our wood fence experts to learn more about the specific steps you can take for your particular situation.

There are many decorative styles of wood fencing - perfect for showcase areas of a property or to set off a section of your yard. Wood rail fences and wood picket fences are two of the most common decorative styles of wood fencing.

Wood Pool Fencing

Wood fencing is a perfect choice for the perimeter of a property to provide privacy for pool areas. We generally do not recommend wood fencing directly adjacent to the pool itself due to the high moisture content in the air. This moisture can cause the fence to deteriorate more rapidly than normal.

Wood Perimeter Fencing

Wood fencing is the staple of privacy fences. Popular across Evansville Indiana, a 6-foot dogear wood privacy fence is quite possibly the single most requested fence we install.

Generally, 6' tall is the highest height for residential settings. When considering a wood fence, vinyl fence, or aluminum fence, 6' tall is common for privacy, and a 4' height is most common for decorative purposes and to keep small kids and pets in the yard. For a pool fence, 5' or 6' tall fences are required in some areas as a minimum height. Although some areas only require a 5' fence around a pool, we recommend 6' tall to put in the safest product possible to keep everyone safe. We can customize your fence to any height you desire.

Yes! At Mr. Fence, we have custom routing machines that will allow us to make a custom fence to match your existing fence, even if that style is no longer available.

A pergola can extend your living space and create a shaded, comfortable area that is fantastic for relaxing with friends and family. A well-constructed arbor adds style and comfort to your home and can be customized to suit your needs, whether you are interested in creating a large shaded area for relaxation or a small oasis in your garden.

We can create a number of custom pergolas to suit your property and your individual needs.

Whatever your needs or personal preferences, we can create the perfect pergola for you!

At Mr. Fence, we create pergolas and arbors out of high-quality materials that can withstand the harsh weather conditions of Evansville Indiana for many years.

Speak with our experts to learn more about the specific maintenance requirements for your custom pergola or arbor.

A beautiful pergola that is uniquely designed for your Evansville Indiana property can be a significant investment.

Local building codes vary widely throughout Evansville Indiana, and your outdoor solutions project may require a permit. Permitting requirements may change based on the location and size of your project, as well as if your pergola is installed on a residential or business property or if your pergola is freestanding or attached to a building. With all of these unique requirements, it's best to check with your local permitting office before starting the construction of a pergola project. We have extensive experience with building pergolas, arbors, and gazebos in the Evansville Indiana area, and our team can help you navigate through the permitting process!

The timeframe from initial consultation to finishing your pergola or arbor construction can vary depending on the time of year your pergola is installed and the scope of your project.

Reach out to our team today to discuss the timeline of your project.

You will have to do regular maintenance on your deck, including staining and sealing with a quality deck stain, at least every 2 or 3 years. Without the regular application of stains, sealers, or paint, wood decking is susceptible to warping, splintering, cracking, and rotting.

That depends.

Decks that are built higher than 30 inches off the ground will require a railing. Otherwise, a railing is optional. However, there are other reasons you may want to include a railing in your build, such as:

Aesthetic reasons:

  • Adds another layer of dimension and style to your deck

Functional reasons:

  • Keeps people from stepping off the edge of your deck into landscaping.

Practical reasons:

  • Makes guests feel more comfortable when closer to the edge of the deck and prevents young children from falling off.

It is always best to simply call your town building code office. Local municipalities have different requirements for deck construction and building permits. Please reach out to our expert team, and we'll be happy to help you with the permitting process should you need one.

We have installed many residential decks across Evansville Indiana so we are happy to answer your questions and can guide you through the process.

When you have us build your new deck, we'll work with you throughout the whole design process to add all of the features you'd expect in order to give you the perfect outdoor space! Deck steps and railings are often chosen by our customers in the Evansville Indiana area for both safety and aesthetics.

If you have an above-ground pool, a deck that surrounds it will truly upgrade the whole area and provide the perfect space to lay out some lounge chairs and enjoy the sun!

When you want a new deck with no excuses, hassles, or problems, contact Mr. Fence. We're the go-to guys for comfortable backyard living spaces!

Pressure-treated wood decks in Evansville Indiana last on average around 10-15 years depending on how well they are maintained. All decks are built with pressure-treated wood and will eventually need to be repaired or replaced, so it is important to take every step in protecting your deck with a high-quality stain.

Depending on the height of your deck, the protection of a guardrail is often a good idea.

Here are the typical requirements for guardrails and handrails for the Evansville Indiana area:

Guardrails:

  • If the walking surface of the deck is 30-inches off the ground, your deck must be surrounded by guardrails which are a minimum of 36-inches in height. The steps for the deck must also have a handrail on one side if there are 4 or more individual risers (spaces between steps).

Stairs and Handrails:

  • Handrails need to be provided on at least one side of stairs with four or more risers. Handrails must be a minimum of 34" to 38" maximum above stairs. Handrails shall be continuous the full length of the stairs from a point directly above the lowest riser of the flight. Landings at the top and bottom of stairs need to be the same width as the stairs x 36" in the direction of travel.

Docks are commonly constructed using materials such as wood, vinyl, or composite materials. The choice of material depends on factors like durability, aesthetics, and maintenance requirements. We offer a variety of materials to suit your needs and preferences.

Yes, we offer customization options for dock designs to cater to your specific requirements and match your property's aesthetics. You can choose the size, shape, decking material, railing style, and additional features such as lighting. Our team will work closely with you to create a personalized dock design that fits your vision.

The need for a permit depends on the laws and regulations of your specific location. In many areas, permits are required to construct a dock. We recommend checking with your local zoning or planning department to determine the necessary permits and any regulations related to dock construction. Our team can also assist you in navigating the permitting process.

The time required to build a dock depends on several factors, including the size, complexity of the design, site conditions, and any necessary permits. In general, the construction process can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. Our team will provide you with a timeline and keep you informed throughout the construction process.

Proper maintenance is essential to ensure the longevity and safety of your dock. Maintenance requirements depend on the materials used for construction. Wood docks will require regular cleaning, staining, and sealing to protect against water damage and rotting. Composite or vinyl docks generally require less maintenance but may still need periodic cleaning and inspection for any signs of wear or damage.

Yes, a well-designed and properly maintained dock can potentially increase the value of your property. Waterfront properties with docks are often highly desirable and sought after. Docks provide convenient access to water activities and can enhance the overall appeal and functionality of your property, which can positively impact its value.
