How Long Does It Take to Install My Fence?

nstalling a fence is a more complex process than you might think. After choosing the fencing you want, the process of getting permits approved begins.

The Permitting Process

There are permits that must be approved and obtained before any work can begin. The permits must go through multiple channels that includes the zoning, building and fire departments, which will typically take 2 to 4 weeks. There are also regulations in regard to the type of fencing material that can be used and the height of the fencing. Once permits have been obtained, you’ll receive an estimated week when work can begin. It’s important to understand that inclement weather has an impact on installation times and can cause delays, along with supply chain issues.

All soil types are not the same and will affect how fencing is installed. The type of soil will dictate if there are any special precautions that must be considered. Any slopes or hills in the area to be fenced will be factored in, allowing for a straight and even fence line. XL Fencing always seeks to install every fence quickly and efficiently.
