Your first step will be to find the right fencing contractor for your needs. You should do some research to find out who is available in your area to perform this work. You'll want to get about three quotes from different companies so that you'll have prices to compare. Most contractors install about 80-150 feet of chain link fencing daily, according to Home Guide, so be sure to also ask how long they expect the chain link fence installation to take. In addition, do some research on each company's background and qualifications.

Chain link fencing is one of the most basic types of fence, and there are different types available. You'll want to talk with your fencing contractor to learn all about the different options that are available to you. These professionals will be able to advise you on which type of fence will work best for your particular needs.

If there are underground utilities in your area, you'll want to check with the utility company to make sure you're clear to install a fence in the area you're planning for installation. This is a crucial step, as hitting underground utilities can be dangerous. Once you've been cleared for work, the fence can go up.

You'll want to have the area where the fence will be installed properly cleared for the work. The fencing contractor may do this part, but if they don't it'll be your responsibility to have the area cleared and ready for installation. On the day of installation, you'll need to keep pets and children away from the area. Fence installation could be dangerous for those who don't need to be present as heavy equipment and tools will be in use.

Before your contractor is done with installation, be sure to find out what types of maintenance your new fence will require. You want to get the most out of your investment, and you will if you maintain the fence properly. Most fencing professionals offer both installation and repair services, so see if your contractor can continue to help you when you need it.

These are just a few steps you can do to prepare for a new fence. If you're looking for fence professionals in your area for chain link fence installation, please contact Eastside Fence today. Call for a free consultation!
