Fencing adds a touch of finesse and security to any property. But there are certain mistakes that are becoming increasingly common lately.

Below is a list of some of them that you ought to bear in mind before installing fencing around your residence:

• Dig holes that are deep enough to provide sufficient sturdiness to each individual fence. Without a strong foundation, the entire concept of security is defeated and the fence fails in providing protection.

• While digging holes, calculate the actual height required accurately and space each fence from the adjust ones appropriately.

• Do not install wooden fence in a concrete floor, it won’t stick nicely.

• Put black roof tar on the bottom two feet of the fence if you are putting it in soil to prevent erosion due to bugs and water.

• Use three rails to increase the sturdiness and longevity of the fence. Two horizontal and one inclined.

• Seal both lips to protect them from erosion. Use quality paint that can provide sufficient protection to the entire fencing. Do not make the mistake of leaving the bottom lip unsealed.
