Putting up a fence will secure your property, create privacy, and beautify the yard. Before beginning a fence installation, here are a few steps to make the process easier and less time-consuming.

4 Tips to Get Ready for a Fence Installation

1. Move Obstacles

If there is anything in the way of the fence line, move it before setup day. You might need to remove trees, relocate landscaping like bushes, flowers, or gardens, or transport kids’ toys across the yard. If you’re replacing an old fence, remove it beforehand to provide a clear area for the new one.

2. Establish the Property Line 

Do you have a deed for the property where you’re placing the fence? If you don’t have an accurate property assessment from the last few years, get one to clarify the boundaries’ locations. You can then prevent delays in fence installation by avoiding crossing the border onto the neighbor’s land.

3. Safeguard Your Pets

Many people put up fences to keep their pets safe in the yard. Round up your animals inside during the installation process to keep them safe and out of the contractor’s way. Let them loose once the new fence is up so they can enjoy their new play area.

4. Provide Easy Parking

The contractor team will need a place to park and unload all the materials for the fence installation. Clear a parking space that offers access to the area where they’ll be putting in the fence to make their job easy and fast. Remove any potential obstacles or tripping hazards from the path like landscaping tools and equipment to ensure they can safely transport the materials.
