Fence Installation Tips: Mistakes to Avoid
The right fence not only improves your security and privacy, but it can also improve the curb appeal of your home. However, get it wrong and it can result in headaches and cost you heavily, with regards to money and time if you decide to go the DIY route and not hire a professional fence contractor.
Not Meeting Regulations
Many homeowners will buy a fence purely on its appearance and their personal taste, however, fail to take into account any local council regulations in place.
Regulations can range from dimensions, materials, and the amount of visibility needed between slats, to name but a few. So before you install a new fence, take some time to research all the regulations in your area. Or, you can hire a good fence contractor such as DFC Fencing to do all the hard work for you.
Choosing a Sub-Par Supplier
In many cases, homeowners make their selection when hiring a fencing supplier based solely on price. Just remember that not all of them are created equal. Review your quotes carefully to make sure you are comparing apples with apples, and understand exactly what is and what is not included in the price.
Invest in Quality
Product quality must always be an important factor when it comes to decision-making. This is because a higher-quality product will be more durable and come with have a longer lifespan than their lower-quality counterparts.
When reviewing the quality of each contractor’s products, it is also important to consider the slats and posts, in addition to the smaller components and quality of craftsmanship. Never just look at the materials, always study the connections between each part as well, to gauge the quality of the product.
