The Fence Installation Process

Whether you’re looking to increase privacy, improve your home’s outdoor décor, or make your property a little safer, installing a fence is a great idea. Before you get serious about a new fence, consider learning about the fence installation process so you can help ensure that your project is successful. Here’s what you can expect when you hire a fence contractor to install a new fence.

Design

Before you break ground, you and your fence contractor will discuss your goals and aesthetic preferences. Next, the contractor will analyze your property and make sure your goals are feasible. If you want to adorn the front of your home with a handsome wrought iron fence, for example, your contractor will help you determine the optimal design and placement based on your preferences and property features.

Preparation

Once you and your fencing equipment contractor settle on a design, it’s time to get serious about installation. As an extra precaution, consider checking your official property boundary with the assessor’s office to ensure that you are building the fence in the right place. As the installation date draws near, consider trimming the landscaping around the construction area to allow easier access. It’s also helpful to move patio furniture and other potential impediments.

Installation

Once everything is in order, it’s time to install your new fence. Be sure to schedule a time when you will be in town so you can oversee the project, and keep your pets and children inside while the fence is being installed. Once your fence is up, your contractor should provide detailed instructions on how to maintain it.
