How much does it cost to have a fence installed?
At Index Fence INC, it’s important to assess a property in person before providing an estimate. This allows us to fully understand the scope of the project, identify any unique challenges or obstacles, and accurately estimate the cost of materials, labor, and any other factors that may impact the price of the fence installation.
During a site visit, our fence company will evaluate factors such as the size and shape of the property, the type of soil and slope, the location of utilities, and any existing fencing or structures that may impact the installation. Additionally, a site visit allows us to discuss your specific needs, preferences, and budget to help us make recommendations for the best fencing options for your property. This could include choosing from a range of materials, such as wood, aluminum, vinyl, or a custom option, as well as considering factors such as privacy, security, and aesthetics.
In conclusion, a site visit is an essential step in the estimating process for us. By gathering all the relevant information and working closely with you, we can provide an accurate and comprehensive estimate that takes into account all of the factors that will impact the final cost of the fence installation.
Do I need to pay a deposit?
For residential fence projects, we require a 60% deposit on all work. We collect the remaining balance on the day of completion.
For commercial fence projects, please contact us for more details.
Is there a warranty?
We provide a one-year workmanship warranty on all wood fences and a two-year warranty on all aluminum and vinyl fence installations. As your local, reliable fence company, most of our fences are backed by lifetime manufacturer warranties. To further support our clients, we offer permit and HOA preparation services at no additional charge.
- Index Fence INC guarantees that all work shall be carried out professionally with quality workmanship.
- Index Fence INC shall guarantee the quality of all labor and installation performed for 1 Year: This warranty covers any fault or failure of installation or construction associated with the Fence Installation Project. The warranty does not cover ordinary wear and tear, abuse, neglect, or acts of God. An example could be, but not limited to, warped woods due to extreme heat. We highly recommend staining your fence once it is dried, especially the pine sections (if applicable).
How long will it take to install my fence?
