Bailey's Prairie Fence Installation
Posts set, lines run straight — that is the short version of how JM Painting approaches fence installation, and it does not change between Bailey's Prairie and anywhere else we work. What does change is the house: expansive clay soils in this region move posts that were not set deep enough, so the scope gets set on site.

Beware of any contractor who prices fence installation sight unseen. These are the variables that decide the real number at your Bailey's Prairie home, and why we look before we quote.

- Cedar versus treated pine, and picket style: side-by-side or board-on-board
- Tear-out and haul-off of the old fence
- Steel posts versus wood posts: the upgrade that outlasts the pickets
