Let's Fix A Fence

Fresh survey in hand, lot lines designated we began to develop an idea of the type of gates we wanted. Redman Fence installed the original fence, so we're using them to finish up the sides and front. We built the fence we previously had on Idlewild and liked it a lot, but it wasn't right for this house. The 8' part in the back is pretty heavy and since I am working on plumbing we wanted instant gratification. Redman did a picket fence up the street on Idlewild we like, so we soon expect to have a great fence. They seem to be fence craftsman rather than installers. We stuck with a low fence along the east front part in case of future expansion. Homer's Depot in Brandon, after a lot of online ordering struggles, managed to come up with a dual gate opener for the front. Also, we ordered the outward opening arms online at Homer's.

We cleared the fence lines of brush and cleaned off the sections of fence needing repairs. Some time ago somebody drove thru the fence from the Publix side, it was repaired by Redman. Sadly, the wood for the 8 foot part isn't availabe anymore, so we are having some milled. After 3 consecutive weeks of Round-up application to vines growing on the fence - nothing. I was shocked it didn't even faze them. Boy, try to get Roundup to honor their warranty, they don't make it easy. After lopers and the weedeater, the sideline looks much better.
