How long does it take for a fence to be installed?
Although each installation is different, the process for a residential installation typically takes 1-2 days. Sometimes for the bigger jobs, a 3rd day will be necessary.
How quickly can you start my job?
Start dates depend on several variables, but generally once you have given us the green light to do the work, we can start your installation in 3-10 business days.
Do I need a permit to install a fence?
This depends strictly on the laws, codes, and zoning of the community where you live. Each state has its own regulations regarding fencing, and in some legislatures local fencing guidelines and zoning ordinances control their height, type, and other feature so there might be local restrictions.
Many counties, townships, cities, and villages will require that homeowners file a construction permit in order to ensure that their fence size, material, scale, and design adhere to local standards and practices, pose no safety risks to the public, and are built to code.
Additionally, if you live in a community with deed restrictions, it is recommended to also check with the homeowners’ association. Your neighbor’s approval may be necessary if you reside in a residential area of shared fences.
Permitting fees typically vary between $20-$30, but they can go up, depending on the scale and size of your project and where you are located. It may take anywhere from several hours to a couple of weeks to receive approval.
Should I worry about any potential utility issues prior to installing the fence?
Before starting the digging process, it is crucial to know exactly the location of the underground utility lines that run across the area where you plan to place your fencing system.
In addition to helping you avoid potential injuries such as electrocution, it will also save
you the hassle of unnecessary penalties and expenses ( for instance, if an underground utility line needs to undergo repair work, your fence will be dug up).
To find out what are the utility issues you might be confronted with, it is advised to contact the building authority for your local area. For your peace of mind, you can also call 811 and get your underground lines marked free of charge.
Should my fence touch the ground?
As a general rule, it should not touch the ground, not only because it makes lawn care more tricky, but also because the moisture in the ground can have a negative impact on your fence.
Especially if you plan to install a wood fence, it is essential to not have contact with the ground. By leaving space at the bottom, you can effectively prevent debris from being trapped underneath and causing it to rot.
How high should my fence be?
This depends on how you intend to use it. For instance, if you want to maintain privacy, then its height should be six feet maximum; numerous communities and counties require a construction permit as well as engineering plan for anything higher than 6 feet.
If you plan to use it to corral children and pets, then a fence that is 3-4 feet tall will prevent wandering, yet it will be low enough to offer an intact view of the surroundings, while allowing you to engage in a chat with your neighbors.
For enclosing a swimming pool, so that you can prevent unsupervised leaps, code requires a height of minimum 4 feet. While trying to keep deer out, it is recommended that it is at least 7 feet tall.

Do I need a pet fence?
Pet fencing is not only a good idea for keeping your pets in but it also keeps other animals out.
Indianapolis has a number of predators that can be very dangerous to both small and large pets. Coyotes, foxes, and other wild animals are very unknown in Indiana, but very common along the open areas of Indianapolis suburbs. It is a good idea to have a level of protection to keep them from your beloved animals.
It isn’t just wild animals that can prompt you to need a pet fence. Other pets that aren’t fenced in can start fights with your pets and rank up some serious vet bills paying for the damage. So save yourself some money and worry and protect your pets by getting a pet fence.
Why kind of fence should I use?
That depends on a number of factors including your budget, type of pet, neighborhood regulations, and personal preferences.
Sturdy options such as the chain link fence can be ideal for all dog breeds. Chain link can vary in height, doesn’t obstruct your view, lasts a long time, is immune to the dogs that like to chew and needs very little maintenance. This is a common and popular option among dog owners.
If view isn’t a motivating factor in your fencing decision then a privacy fence may provide a boost in security and in asthetic. Lattice top fences are beautiful and offer the buyer privacy. The sturdy wood prevents pets from escaping and also lasts a good while.
