Common Questions
I live near the Strafford square and have a large, wooded lot. Can your hidden fence work with tree roots and uneven ground?
Yes. Our hidden fence technology uses buried wire that follows your property line—rocky ground, tree roots, and slopes are no problem. We do a free in-yard estimate first to map the layout and mark any underground utilities. The system uses FM frequency signals, so it’s very reliable even with dense trees or uneven terrain. You won’t need to trench through every root; we bury the wire just below the surface or along existing fences if you prefer.
Do you offer training for dogs that are afraid of the beep or correction from the collar?
Absolutely. We provide private dog training as part of our service, and we specialize in helping nervous or anxious dogs adjust. We start with boundary flags and positive reinforcement—no shock, just a low-level tone or vibration if your dog is nervous. The collars feature AutoMemory® and FastReact®, which give a gentle warning before any correction. Many owners find their dog picks it up in less than a week with our guidance.
If my existing fence has storm damage from a Missouri windstorm, can you repair the wood and also weatherproof it for the next season?
Yes, we handle full fence and gate repair—replacing broken boards, resetting posts, and fixing sagging gates. After we repair the damage, we can also apply a weatherproofing stain or paint to protect the wood from moisture, sun, and temperature swings. The job includes cleanup and a clear timeline. We service properties near Strafford as well as across Greene County, so you're never waiting weeks for a bid.
