Fence Installation Frequently Asked Questions

The timeline for installing your fence can vary based on factors like your property size, the type of fence you choose, and the condition of the site. In general, most residential fence installations take about 1 to 3 days to complete. During your consultation, we’ll give you a personalized estimate so you’ll know exactly what to expect for your specific project.

We offer a variety of fencing materials to suit different needs and styles, including wood, vinyl, metal, and chain link. Each option has its own advantages—like the classic look of wood or the long-lasting, low-maintenance appeal of vinyl and metal. Not sure which one’s right for you? Our team is happy to walk you through the choices and help you find the perfect fit for your property and preferences.

Yes, there are a few simple things you can do to help make the installation process go smoothly. Clearing the area of any furniture, plants, or debris is a great first step.

"Straight Line" Method

Fences built using the straight line method are installed in a perfectly level line, regardless of changes in elevation. This method works best on flat terrain and provides a clean, traditional look, ensuring that all fence panels are perfectly aligned and level.

"Follow Grade" Method

The method of “following the grade” allows your fence to contour closely to the natural slope of your land, maintaining a smooth, continuous line that hugs the ground. This technique is ideal for gently rolling landscapes, as it provides an aesthetically pleasing and secure boundary that adjusts seamlessly to the terrain.

"Line-of-Sight" Method

The line-of-sight method is used to ensure unobstructed views, maintaining a straight and level top line regardless of the land’s curves. This method is perfect for those who prioritize a seamless visual flow and a clean, uniform fence line.

"Stepped" Method

Stepped fences are designed to follow the contour of your land in a series of level sections, creating a “stepped” appearance. This approach is ideal for properties with significant elevation changes, as it maintains a consistent height for each fence panel while accommodating the slope of the terrain.

Decorative Details

Our team is committed to going the extra mile in every detail of your fence project.

Customize your fence project by asking about our add-ons we offer: decorative post caps, trim, and custom railings.

Better Fence Pickets

We build with only the best fence pickets. These are not the typical fence pickets anyone can buy from the local big-box stores. We have partnered with suppliers to provide the highest quality wood fencing materials.

Premium Rails

Much like our fence pickets, our company takes care to build only with rails with minor defects. Taking the time to use premium fence materials helps ensure your family can enjoy the security and privacy of your new fence for years to come.

Stronger Posts

We understand that your fence is only as strong as your posts. This is why we take great care to use the strongest posts, free of defects.

All high-quality posts are built to ensure that your fence stands strong for years to come.

Stronger Fencing

Compared to wood, vinyl fencing is much stronger. Vinyl fencing is flexible and durable, which helps vinyl outperform wood fencing in windy conditions and with environmental exposure to UV rays and weather.

More Options Available

Vinyl fencing is available in a wide variety of configurations to match any property, home, or purpose. Iconic, white vinyl picket fences give a feel of classic Americana with that white-picket-fence style. Darker vinyl fences can be installed to make a space look more elegant or modern. From short picket to tall privacy, vinyl fencing can be designed to enhance your backyard or business.

Easy to Clean

Vinyl fencing can be cleaned easily with a regular garden hose. If you get a little mildew from moisture or shady conditions, you can use a mild dish soap and then spray off the fence with a garden hose. Vinyl fences are very easy to clean, making them a great option for low-maintenance fencing.

Beautiful Vinyl Fences

Vinyl fences are a bright, bold fence choice. Available in a variety of colors, vinyl fencing can be installed in many configurations to enhance your property’s beauty. Because vinyl isn’t as porous as wood, vinyl fences retain their color and finish much longer than wood fencing, so you can enjoy your fence for years to come.

Limited Lifetime Warranty

Our metal fences come with a lifetime craftsmanship warranty that protects against cracking, peeling, chipping, blistering, and corrosion resulting in structural failure, without cause. They also come with a manufacturer’s warranty for material defects through the manufacturer.

High Security Fencing

Maintaining a secure perimeter is your first line of defense against potential threats. A securely installed metal fence serves as a visual deterrent backed by heavy metal components that provide a higher level of protection compared to traditional alternatives.

Coated Galvanized Steel

All of our metal fences are coated inside and out. Our metal framework is subjected to a multi-stage pre-treatment/wash, followed by a duplex cathodic electrocoat system consisting of an epoxy primer, which significantly increases corrosion protection, and an acrylic topcoat, which provides the protection necessary to withstand adverse weathering effects.

Seamless Design

Our metal fence panels are fabricated through a welding technique that combines laser and fusion technology to create a virtually invisible structural connection at every picket-to-rail intersection. 

Our team’s expertly crafted construction is unmatched in strength and durability.

Stronger Posts & Hardware

A benefit of choosing our team to install your chain link fence is that we use only the most durable posts and hardware.

Chain link fences are known for being the last fences standing during hurricanes, tornadoes, and other severe weather events.
