It can be hard to tell sometimes if your fencing contractor is using the proper materials, because you ask for specifics, you will most likely be given a bunch of general statements and platitudes that really don’t tell you anything. A competent fencing contractor should want to share specifics about the materials he is using, and why they are the best available. For example, if you were considering a wood fence, you would want to know that your fence would be constructed of a premium Grade Cedar. Premium Grade Cedar is the best wood material to use because it grows slower making it stronger, has fewer knots.
