Hiring a Fencing Contractor: What to Know

Most folks who decide that the time is right for a fence already have at least a vague idea of what sort of fence they’re looking for. Fencing types include




  • classic wood




  • chain link




  • decorative iron or metal




  • livestock Fence




Most people choose to obtain a quote from more than one area fencing contractor, although you may choose to bypass this if you’ve heard great things about a local fencing company from neighbors, online reviews, or coworkers. But once you have your choice of fencing contractor narrowed down, it’s a good idea to ask the following questions before signing on the dotted line…




  • Will they pull the required permits (if they’re required by your town)?




  • What about locating underground utilities? Will they take care of contacting a utility locator, or will that be up to you?




  • If your property is graded (on a slope), how will they deal with that? (This is important if you’re installing a fence to keep pets or small kids in the




  • yard, since you won’t want any gaps for potential escape at any point along the fence.) Also ask if the height will vary because of grade.




  • What about a gate? Is that included in the price or will it be extra?




  • Do they warranty their work and/or product?




  • What’s their timeline?




Getting satisfactory answers to these questions will help ensure that you’ll end up with a fence that meets both your needs and your budget. Contracting with an established (i.e., experienced) fencing contractor will further ensure that you’ll get a high-quality fence that’s built to last.
