We spent our Independence Day weekend this year taking down our old rotting fence so that a new one could be installed starting July 6th. The fence was finished on the 17th. It is so much better than the other one!
One of the issues we ran into when putting in the fence was that the main sprinkler line went right under where the new fence was going to go (we put it in almost the same place, just straightened it a little bit, but I have no idea how the existing fence didn't interfere with the sprinkler line. So, we were forced to learn a lot about repairing sprinkler systems, and we decided that it really isn't bad at all! Just lots of digging, but the supplies are cheap and it is pretty easy to do! We had to re-route our main water line for the backyard and move 3 sprinkler heads, and we also added two more because there was a few areas that didn't have any water
