We Answer Frequently Asked Questions About Our Fencing Solutions

Your fence type will depend on your needs, budget, and personal preferences. If you are part of a homeowners association that requires a specific type of fence you may be restricted to a certain type of fence even if fencing companies offer other types. Some popular options include wood, vinyl, chain link, aluminum, and wrought iron.

We offer cedar, vinyl, aluminum, and chainlink fences. Unlike other fencing companies, every fence we do is custom fabricated and installed to fit your needs. Whether you want a natural cedar privacy fence or an eloquent vinyl picket fence, we can make it match your vision. When you schedule your fence estimate, our team will explain each material's pros and cons and determine what will work best for you and your family.

The cost of a fence can vary greatly depending on the installation's material, height, length, and complexity. Our average fence project costs $7,000, but we do fence projects as low as $3500 and as high as $20,000+. It's best to get a few quotes from different fencing companies to estimate your specific needs accurately.

According to Grand View Research, the U.S. fencing market size was estimated at USD 8.20 billion in 2021. There are a lot of companies to work with, but we have the experience to give you your ideal fence.

The maintenance required for your fence will depend on the material. Wood fences may need to be stained or painted every few years, while vinyl and aluminum fences require little to no maintenance. You can turn to qualified fencing companies like Fencing Solutions for more information about fence maintenance.

Once you decide to proceed with your fence installation with Fencing Solutions, we require a 60% deposit to get you on our schedule and begin the fencing process.

In many cases, fencing companies need a permit to install a fence. The requirements vary depending on your location, so it's best to check with your local village or homeowners association. Our office and fence estimators will help you along the way, so there is no need to try and figure all that out on your own.

The survey plot is one of the most important documents fencing companies need for a fence installation. Most of the time, you can find this document in your closing papers. If you can't find your survey, you can call the village to see if they have a copy, but if they don't, you will have to hire a survey company to do one for you. The survey outlines your property and lets us ensure your fence is installed within your property lines. Also, most villages and homeowners associations require you to have a survey to apply for the fence permit.

In short, we do not require the homeowner to be home during their fence installation. At this point in the process, we have everything we need and are ready to install the fence as one of the fencing companies you can rely on. If the fence crew has questions, they will contact you via phone. We only require that the fence crew have access to running water and electricity on that day.

The lifespan of a fence can vary greatly depending on the material and maintenance. A well-maintained wood fence can last up to 20 years, while a vinyl or aluminum fence can last up to 50 years. But not all fencing companies and fence materials are created equal, so it is crucial to make sure you research and trust the fence company you decide to go with.

Fencing companies need all landscaping to be trimmed 18 inches away from where the fence will be installed. Any overgrown brush, trees, and shrubs prevent our labor force from installing promptly and need to be removed before our installation.
