Our Fence Installation Process

01

Consultation & Layout

We discuss your goals, materials, and budget, then lay out the fence line, identify property boundaries, and call 811 to locate underground utilities.

Permitting

We pull any required permits from your municipality and ensure the fence meets local setback and height requirements.

03

Post Setting

Posts are set in concrete at the proper depth for your soil and fence height — the foundation of a fence that won't lean or fail.

04

Panel & Hardware Installation

Rails, panels, pickets, and gates are installed plumb and level, with all hardware properly secured for long-term stability.

Fence Installation FAQ for St. Louis Homeowners

How often should St. Louis homeowners get fence installation?
Given St. Louis's severe tornado and hail risk in spring and fall along i-44 and i-70 corridors, most homeowners benefit from fence installation at least once a year. Ice storm branch and gutter damage (Dec–Feb) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in St. Louis most need fence installation?
Red brick bungalows and two-stories throughout St. Louis County and Victorian homes in Lafayette Square and Compton Heights are the most common home types in St. Louis and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Do I need a permit to install a fence?
Most municipalities require permits for fence installation. Requirements vary by height, material, and location. We handle permit applications as part of our standard process.
How deep should fence posts be set?
A general rule is one-third of the total post length, with a minimum of 2 feet for most residential fences. Posts in soft soil, high-wind areas, or supporting gates should go deeper.
What fence material lasts the longest?
Vinyl and aluminum fences have the lowest maintenance and can last 30+ years. Cedar and redwood last 15–20 years with proper treatment. Pressure-treated pine is the most affordable wood option at 10–15 years.
How long does fence installation take?
Most residential fence projects take 1–3 days depending on linear footage, terrain, and material. Gates and complex corners add time.
