At Reliable Handyman, our professionals are prompt and efficient, but we will take the time to prepare to make sure the project is done right.
Here's a quick rundown of what to expect during a fence installation from Reliable Handyman Services.
1. Discuss Your Goals
We review what you want the fence to accomplish, including privacy, pets, appearance, access and maintenance preferences.
2. Review the Site and Layout
We assess the proposed fence line, terrain, access and existing conditions. We also discuss gate locations and the space needed for equipment or maintenance access.
Property boundaries must be established before installation. An existing fence or a neighbor’s assumption is not a substitute for a survey when the boundary is uncertain.
3. Prepare a Written Estimate
Your estimate identifies the agreed material, style, approximate layout, gates and included work, such as removal and disposal of an existing fence.
4. Confirm Project Requirements
Before digging, required utility locating must be completed. Permit requirements, applicable restrictions and any HOA approvals also need to be addressed. Privately owned underground lines may require a separate locating service.
5. Install the Fence
Installation includes laying out the fence, setting posts and installing the fence sections and gates according to the selected system and site conditions.
6. Complete the Walkthrough
We review the finished project with you, check gate operation and explain relevant maintenance needs.
