Comment on So this is how my neighbor fixes his fence.

  If they don’t want it on the property line and they aren’t paying a penny, than nope, person paying gets the pretty side. Why would the neighbor who doesn’t own it or pay for it get the pretty side?

  Also, you couldn’t install it without trespassing, so you couldn’t legally build it that way anyways

    I’ve helped build several fences. The solution to this is talking to your neighbour like a normal person and asking if they’ll let you do it.

      There’s a reason why the person is paying for a fence by themselves on their own property don’t you think? The person did, and the neighbor is being a twat, so now they need to pay double the price and lose property while the dick neighbor gets a free fence and land.

      Yes that’s the solution, but obviously people are dicks and thats the situation that’s being talked about here.

      Why the fuck do you think we are talking about Joe neighbors lmfao?

    Confidently wrong. Let me kniw when yoy eventually google this and realize you’re wrong. Or you know, go outside and look at some neighborhood fences.

      Google fortress style fence, it has rails on both sides and the fence looks identical on both sides. Sounds like you should maybe up your Google game yourself before calling someone else out.

        No shit, we have those too, but they obviously cost more so it’s not as common. And that doesn’t counter the fact that in most locations, the code is to put the nice side facing out. Again, this is the point of contention, not whether a fence with two nice sides exists. Try to keep up buddy, if you can.

        The picture is taken in the USA, if you want to join a discussion about fences in the States, then don’t interject your country’s rules. They don’t apply.

  Maybe for a front yard fence, but not a backyard. Plus if both neighbors put up s fence against each other, you’d have no way to nail/screw the slats to the frame.

    You do this to make sure no one can stand on the supports and pull themselves up high enough to look into your backyard.

      It was a dumb joke about presenting my “nice side” to others. But now I’m curious what goes on in your backyard!

      Fences are short enough almost anyone can pull up to look over.

      Who told you that’s a thing? Thats hilarous.
