Stem Fence Installation

The calls we get from Stem tend to fall into three buckets: keep something in, keep something out, or make the yard by the house private. Small-farm properties out here need pasture and cross-fencing. Gardeners need height, because the deer pressure in this part of Granville County is real and a short fence does nothing. And plenty of people just want a normal backyard fence around the part of the property they actually live in.

Line length is what makes rural quoting different. On an acreage property, the material is often a smaller share of the cost than clearing, corners, and gates. A run across open pasture prices very differently than the same run through a wooded property line, so we walk it before we quote it and break out clearing as its own number rather than burying it.

Woven wire is the workhorse here — affordable per foot, available in the heights that garden and livestock work actually require, and durable if the corners are braced properly. Board fence goes in where visibility matters, particularly with horses or along road frontage where the fence is part of how the property looks. For the yard around the house, pressure-treated wood privacy is the standard, and vinyl is worth considering if you would rather not be staining a fence every few years.

Everything gets set in concrete because of how this clay behaves through a wet winter. If you have a project in mind, the fastest path to a real number is to have someone stand on the property with you.
