When your fence becomes damaged or worn out with age, replacing it is often a good idea to maintain your home’s value. However, many homeowners don't know what to expect from a fence installation, and can be surprised by some of the necessary steps. Hinesville Fence in Liberty County, GA, has been providing quality, custom fences for area residents for more than 30 years—here, they’ve put together a quick guide for what you should expect from a fence installation.

The Plans

Replacing your home’s fence typically requires much more planning and organization than a standard fence repair. First, an estimator will come out to your property to discuss with you every aspect of your fence, including the style, length, and important features like gates. At this point, you can expect to meet with the estimator during normal business hours, keeping in mind that most companies won't enter your property unsupervised for liability reasons.

The Construction

Before construction begins, a crew will likely come out to your home to mark where your utility lines are placed underground. While construction is likely to occur during business hours, keep in mind that this is generally a fast process, lasting roughly three days. The noise level will depend on the size of your fence and the equipment required for installation—ask your contractor about what you should expect in advance. Shortly after they place posts in the ground, the rest of the fence will be assembled, including the stringers, gates and any other features. Quality contractors will understand the need to respect your home, and will be courteous and clean up after themselves.
