If you’re thinking about hiring a professional to install a new fence on your McCordsville property, it can be an exciting step toward improving your home. At Amerifence, we’ve helped countless residents create beautiful and secure boundaries for their yard. But as straightforward as it may seem, a successful fencing project starts with asking the right questions. Here’s what you need to consider before picking out your fence and scheduling professional installation.
Are you looking for privacy, enhanced security, a place to keep pets, or simply to improve the curb appeal of your home? Different goals mean different materials and styles. Discuss with our representatives at Amerifence what you want from your new fence installation, and we will recommend the best type for your needs.
There’s a good selection of fence materials to choose from: an aluminum fence is low-maintenance and modern, a cedar wood fence has timeless charm, a vinyl fence resists weather, and a chain link fence is budget-friendly and practical. Each comes with its own look, durability, and price.
Check your city’s regulations and any homeowner’s association (HOA) rules. Chances are that we've probably worked with your neighborhood, but it's always good to get a copy of your HOA's guidelines. Do the same with your city's fencing regulations.
Accurately identifying property boundaries is vital to avoiding disputes with your neighbors. Consider getting a property survey if you’re not certain. We suggest requesting a permanent "pinned" boundary survey with a print map. You can also check your closing papers that you received when you purchased your home.
A cedar wood fence needs regular staining, an aluminum fence might just need a rinse, and a vinyl fence is virtually carefree. Consider how much time you want to spend on upkeeping your investment.
DIY can be tempting, but professional installation from a trusted company like Amerifence helps guarantee the fence is installed straight, secure, and up to code. We can also help you choose from a wide selection of styles and answer your questions.
Set a clear budget before you start. Chain link fence projects are often more affordable, while options like cedar or vinyl typically come with higher upfront costs but lower maintenance.
It’s polite (and sometimes required) to notify your neighbors that you're going to have a new fence installed on your property. Some may even be willing to share the cost for a fence on a shared property line.
There's a lot to consider when you're thinking of installing a new fence around your home. The good news? Our team at Amerifence is here to guide you every step of the way for a smooth and hassle-free fence installation.
