Wood Vinyl Privacy Fence Options

Materials That Actually Last Here

We install wood privacy fences, vinyl fencing, and traditional picket fences depending on what fits your property and budget. Each material has advantages – wood gives you that classic look, vinyl requires almost no maintenance, and picket fencing works well for front yards.

Your fence design considers your property’s slope, soil conditions, and existing landscaping. We’re not trying to force a standard solution onto every yard in Upper Chichester.

Every installation includes proper post setting, quality hardware, and attention to details like gate alignment and latch operation. You get a fence that works smoothly and looks professional from day one.

Do I need a permit for fence installation in Upper Chichester?

Most fence installations in Upper Chichester require permits, especially for fences over 4 feet tall or those near property lines. We handle the permit application process for you, including submitting the required drawings and specifications to the township. This ensures your fence meets local building codes and setback requirements. The permit process typically takes 1-2 weeks, and we factor this timeline into your project schedule so there are no delays.

How long does fence installation take from start to finish?

Most residential fence installations in Upper Chichester take 1-3 days for the actual installation work, depending on the fence length and terrain. However, the complete timeline includes permit approval (1-2 weeks) and material ordering (3-5 days). We schedule your project so materials arrive when permits are approved, minimizing delays. Weather can affect the timeline, particularly during post-setting, so we build some flexibility into the schedule during winter months.

What's the difference between wood and vinyl fencing costs?

Vinyl fencing typically costs more upfront than wood but requires virtually no maintenance over its lifetime. Wood fencing has lower initial costs but needs periodic staining or sealing to maintain appearance and durability. For most Upper Chichester homeowners, the total cost over 10-15 years is similar between materials. Your choice often comes down to appearance preferences, maintenance tolerance, and upfront budget. We provide detailed cost comparisons so you can make the right decision for your situation.

How do you handle property line disputes or unclear boundaries?

We require clear property boundaries before starting any fence installation. If your property lines are unclear, we recommend getting a survey before proceeding – this protects both you and your neighbors from future disputes. We can work with your surveyor to ensure fence placement meets Upper Chichester setback requirements. If neighbors have concerns about the fence location, it’s better to address these issues before installation rather than after your fence is complete.

What happens if my fence gets damaged after installation?

We stand behind our installation work and will address any issues that result from improper installation. For damage from weather, accidents, or normal wear, we provide repair services and can usually match existing materials and colors. Vinyl fences rarely need repairs, while wood fences might need occasional board replacement or hardware adjustment. We keep records of your fence specifications and materials used, making future repairs or modifications much easier to handle.

Can you install fencing on sloped or uneven terrain?

Yes, we regularly install fences on sloped properties throughout Upper Chichester. Sloped terrain requires either stepped installation (where fence sections follow the ground level) or racked installation (where the fence follows the slope angle). The best approach depends on your property’s grade, fence style, and aesthetic preferences. Stepped installation works well for privacy fences, while racked installation suits picket fences better. We evaluate your terrain during the site visit and recommend the most appropriate installation method.
