Home FAQ

Questions we get asked

These answers follow the company’s own FAQ and service pages. Where the old landscaping FAQ copied generic services, this page says so instead of repeating them.

Fences

How much does fence installation cost?

It depends on material, height, length, and terrain. Woodmasters USA gives free estimates for residential and commercial fence projects. There is no published price list.

What fences do you install?

Wood, vinyl, chain link, ornamental iron, privacy fences, and custom designs, for homes and businesses. Composite and pressure-treated wood are on the fence page as well.

How long does a fence take?

Most installs finish in 1–3 days, depending on the fence, the property, and the weather.

Do I need a permit?

Rules differ by city and county. We help you find out whether a permit is required and what the local process is. We do not publish one city’s rule as if it applied everywhere.

How do I find my property line?

Use your survey, or hire a surveyor if the pins are gone. We build to the line you confirm.

What is the best privacy fence?

Wood privacy fences and vinyl privacy fences are the two solid options we install. We will say which fits the yard when we see it.

How long will a fence last?

Our FAQ has listed wood at 15–20 years with maintenance, and vinyl or metal at 20–30 years or more. Cedar fences are listed at 15–25 years on the fence page. Soil, sun, and stain change the result.

Do you remove old fences?

Yes. Removal and replacement include hauling the old fence away.

What warranty covers the fence?

The written warranty is a 3-year limited warranty on installation, workmanship, and fence products, and 10 years on chain-link fabric and cedar posts on steel pipe. Read the warranty page for the exclusions. A lifetime line on the old homepage does not match that page.

Decks

How much does a deck cost?

Size, material, and design change the number. The estimate is free and on site, with no obligation.

How long does a deck take?

Most residential decks take 1–2 weeks, depending on complexity, materials, and weather.

Which deck materials do you build with?

Cedar, other wood, hardwood, composite including Trex and TimberTech, pressure-treated lumber, redwood, and PVC. The deck page has the notes on each.

Do decks need permits?

Often, when they are attached, tall, or large. We help with the local paperwork. The blog post on deck permitting in Washington and Oregon is the longer explanation.

How long will a deck last?

The deck FAQ lists wood at 15–20 years with care and composite at 25–30 years or more. Hardwood is listed at 40-plus years on the deck page.

Can you add railings, stairs, seating, or a cover?

Yes. Multi-level layouts, built-in seating, railings, pergolas, and outdoor lighting are part of custom deck work. Patio covers are a related service.

Do you repair old decks?

Yes. We repair what is still sound and replace decks that are rotten, including tear-off and disposal.

Landscaping

What landscaping do you actually do?

Planting and garden design, grading and drainage, hardscape and pathways, retaining walls, and full design-build. Materials include Pacific Northwest natives, flagstone, pavers, river rock, bark, and boulders.

How much does landscaping cost?

It depends on the yard, the materials, and the scope. The on-site estimate is free. We do not publish package prices.

How long does it take?

A smaller planting or hardscape job can be a few days. A full yard with grading and hardscape can take several weeks.

Do you offer lawn mowing, irrigation, or fire pits?

The old landscaping FAQ listed lawn care, mowing, fertilization, hedge trimming, seasonal cleanup, irrigation, and fire pits. Those items are not confirmed, so they are not offered on this site. TODO for Andrey: say which of those, if any, should be added back.
