Wood Fence - Huntington Beach

[Mondorally]

I need to replace the wood fence in my backyard. Looking for a 6' high privacy fence - something like this

The neighbor I share property lines with is looking to replace some fence at the same time. Probably end up around 200lf +/- when its all said/done.

Question 1 - Anyone on the boards do fences?
Question 2 - Anyone have any recommendations?
Question 3 - Any other tips/experiences/suggestions?

Thanks!

We just had ours done not too long ago. We paid $35 lf. That included everything. He did redwood slats and pressure treated posts. We are very happy with the work. :thumbsup

BTW ours is EXACTLY like your image. 6' posts in concrete, caped etc.

Have you checked in to the vinyl stuff? My neighbor did vinyl, looks pretty good. Not sure how much more vs. wood though. We'll be doing fences soon, one more strong wind and we'll have a common back yard.:smackhead

My first choice is block, second is vinyl....... but the neighbor I'm going in on the fence with is pretty set on natural wood.

35-40 a lf is about right.


I really don't like the vinyl, it looks good from cross the street, but when you get close too it...


If you were closer I'd swing by and give you bid.

If given a choice between nails and skrews, go with the skrews.


If you have any Qs about a bid or anything like that I'm just a PM away.

lol....Those pictures give me nightmares:smackhead

I lost alot of blood and sweat

Almost 2 years ago to the date I started on my 120' 6ft redwood stepped fence. Gad dam redwood is exspensive I think I have $3500 into materials only. (just like pictured but with a 2x6 cap)

crappy part was no neighbor to split it with:swear (corner lot)

I have a few mexicans that just did some work for me, pretty cheap if your neighbor changes his mind and wants a block wall.

 

[YoPengo]

I wanted block also.... but had to keep the cost down.

I believe block was $70 lf.

for just the materials... its closer to 170/ ft with labor... I know, I'm building one right now... just got the base pored today.


I personally love red wood, I also tend to like the "brown/ red" presure treated then the green. I think it looks alot better then the green.


I also highly recomend in 3-6 months( after it drys out) you apply a product like penofin to the fence.


Just make sure the guys put the posts 18-24" in the ground on top of atleast 6 " of ab and bring the concreate above grade level ( using the "draining" aka fence post mix is best) atleast 120 lbs of mix per hole.( 2 60 lb bags or 1.5 80 lb bags)

the redwood is your best choice you can use cedar witch is a lil less money .. but you will have to stain it to keep it up and seal it more often...

if you cant find anyone let me know... I can do it for you...

 

[boatnam2]

The guys i used just poured 800 sq ft one truck of colored concrete with a pump, ran drain sewer included, ran gas line material not included(200 bucks) ran electrical conduit included also helped my get my built in bbq island into the back yard and unloaded a heavy ass fountain and set it up for 3k... truck and pump i know is 1600 plus color oh yea that was stamped. He did my mext door neighbors planter wall i think 2 1/2- 3 feet tall with brick cap and stuccoed to match house 147 ft for 2700 bucks.

I may have some time available, when do you need it done?

I thought cedar was more expensive than redwood?

What do I know though, i do commercial, just steel stuff.

 

[whiteworks]

Here is one that I did for my neighbor last year, I used channeled steel post's and poured a 6" curb to keep the wood off the dirt. I also coated all the lumber with linseed oil prior to assembly (needs another coat now). IMO wood fences are a maintenance issue to keep them looking sharp you should plan on coating them once a year.

I would say anytime would be OK. Neighbor has given me the OK to get final quotes and proceed.
