We always start each security or privacy fence installation off with a consultation. During this time, we will listen to what you envision for your intended fence before we carry out a property survey. If you are installing a fence on your private property, we will not need to procure any permits, which will help speed the process up. In the fence design process, we’ll create a design based on what you tell us, as well as what’s possible for your yard. After that, we’ll provide you with a cost estimate for the project. If any tweaks are needed, let us know, and we will refine the plans and get them back to you.
After you pick your preferred material, our residential fencing contractors will begin the planning phase. We have to measure the area; we will be installing the fence by linear foot to determine how much material to use. Our professional installation requires the digging of deep post holes, as well as pouring concrete, not to mention marking off the spots underground that are not safe to dig.
On the day of your fence installation, Memphis technicians will arrive in uniform, ready to get to work. If we run into any trouble along the way, we’ll let you know before making additional adjustments. If you have trees in your yard or other obstacles, these will need to be cleared before we begin drilling holes and setting the posts. When the posts are set, we’ll attach the gates and latches before staining or painting your fence, if desired.
Fence Materials
It is also important to know what crucial elements are installed every time, regardless of the chosen materials:
- Posts: Vertical pillars, embedded into the earth, serve as the foundation that supports and stabilizes a fence.
- Rails: These are horizontal bars that run between each post and provide support for all pickets or panels. Rail fencing is a popular option for farmers and acreage dwellers. They show clean lines, and an authentic Memphis feel.
- Pickets or panels: If you've always dreamed of the white-picket fence life, we can make your dreams into a reality. Picket fences include vertical elements that are great for privacy, security, and decorative appeal.
- Hardware: Screws, nails, brackets, and other components that are used to attach the various parts together.
- Gate: While optional, a gate serves as an entryway to your property, typically comprising a frame, hinges, latch, and lock. We offer a variety of options, including no gate, a single gate, a double gate, or a double-wide gate.
