What to Expect During a Professional Fence Installation

 





Introduction


Planning to install a new fence but not sure what the process looks like? Whether it’s your first fence or you’re replacing an old one, hiring professionals ensures the job is done right, safely, and on time. In this post, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step experience of a professional fence installation—so there are no surprises along the way.




???? 1. Initial Consultation & Site Visit


The first step begins with a free consultation, where your fencing contractor will:

  • Visit your property to inspect the yard, slopes, and layout

  • Discuss your goals—privacy, security, pets, decoration, etc.

  • Help you choose the right material and style

  • Take measurements and assess ground conditions


???? At Super Fabrications, we offer free site visits in Vienna, Fairfax, Loudoun, and Arlington.




???? 2. Quote & Material Selection


After the site visit, you’ll receive a detailed quote including:

  • Fence material options (wood, vinyl, aluminum, etc.)

  • Labor and installation costs

  • Timeline for installation

  • Any permit fees (if applicable)


Once approved, we help you choose the color, design, and finish of your fence—keeping your home’s style and budget in mind.




???? 3. Permits & Utility Marking


Before digging begins, professionals handle all the necessary permits and paperwork.

  • Local zoning laws are followed for height, setback, and design

  • Underground utilities (gas, water, power) are marked to avoid damage

  • HOA approvals (if needed) are obtained


You don’t have to deal with red tape—we do it for you!




???? 4. Installation Day: What Actually Happens


Once everything’s approved and ready, here’s what happens:

A. Post Holes Are Dug



  • Holes are dug with exact spacing

  • Posts are set in concrete for strength

  • Time is allowed for curing (usually 1–2 days)


B. Fence Panels or Pickets Installed



  • Panels or boards are attached once posts are stable

  • Gates and latches are added last

  • Final leveling and alignment are checked


C. Clean-Up & Walkthrough



  • All debris is removed from your yard

  • You get a final walkthrough to inspect the work

  • Maintenance tips are shared (especially for wood fences)






⏳ 5. How Long Does It Take?


Most fence installations take:

  • 1–3 days for average-sized yards

  • Add 1–2 days for curing or weather delays

  • Custom or sloped-yard fences may take longer


???? We always give you an honest, realistic timeline up front.




???? 6. Aftercare & Warranty


Good fence companies stand behind their work.

  • You’ll receive warranty details for both labor and materials

  • Instructions on cleaning and maintenance

  • Tips for weather protection (especially in Virginia’s changing seasons)
