Do I need a permit for a new fence?

In most cases, yes. Permits are required by most municipalities and counties for new fence installations. We will pull any required permits for your fence installation and ensure it meets local codes.

What is the best wood for an outdoor fence?

Vinyl fences are typically 2-3 times more expensive than wood privacy fences installed. However, vinyl is a long term, low maintenance option that holds up well in all weather.

Mark any underground utilities, remove obstructions along the fence line, and outline the area with spray paint or stakes. Let us know about any sprinkler lines or other utilities to avoid damage.

Our crews take care not to damage landscaping and lawns during fence installations. We lay plywood and mats for equipment access if needed. All materials are hauled away leaving the yard tidy afterwards.

Vinyl and metal fences just need occasional washing. For wood, apply weatherproof sealant/stain every 1-2 years. Avoid using harsh cleaners. Check for damage after major storms.

For wood fences, we apply a protective stain or paint finish. For vinyl and metal fences, no coating is required but can be added for aesthetic reasons. We will discuss your finish options.

We recommend 4-6 feet for privacy. Check neighborhood codes for height limits. Location, property use and aesthetics should also determine height. We can advise the best height.
