Fence Installation
Professional fence installation services in Washington, UT that protect your property and enhance your curb appeal.
Why Professional Fence Installation Matters
Installing a fence might look simple from the outside, but getting it right takes real expertise. A poorly installed fence can lean, sag, or fail within just a few years, wasting your money and leaving your property unprotected. When you work with professional fence contractors like Apex Washington Fencing, you get a fence that stands straight, stays strong, and lasts for decades.
Here in Washington, UT, we deal with unique challenges that make professional installation even more important. Our desert climate brings intense sun that can warp improperly set posts, and our soil conditions require specific techniques to ensure posts stay firmly in the ground. We also get occasional heavy rain and wind that can quickly reveal any shortcuts taken during installation.
What Sets Professional Installation Apart
- •Proper post depth and spacing: We dig posts to the correct depth for your fence type and soil conditions, then set them in concrete for maximum stability.
- •Accurate measurements and level installation: Every section is measured precisely and checked multiple times to ensure your fence runs perfectly straight and level.
- •Quality materials and proper techniques: We use commercial-grade materials and proven installation methods that hold up to our local weather conditions.
- •Code compliance and permit handling: We know local building codes and handle all required permits so your fence meets regulations.
- •Underground utility location: We coordinate with utility companies to mark underground lines before digging, protecting your property and keeping everyone safe.
Our Fence Installation Process
We have refined our installation process over hundreds of projects to deliver consistent, high-quality results every time. From your first call to the final walkthrough, we keep you informed and make the entire experience as smooth as possible.
Step 1: Free Consultation and Estimate
We start by visiting your property to understand what you need. We will discuss your goals, whether that is privacy, security, keeping pets in, or just improving your home's appearance. We measure your property, check for any obstacles or slope issues, and explain your fence material options in plain language. You will leave with a detailed written estimate that breaks down all costs with no hidden fees.
Step 2: Planning and Permits
Once you approve the estimate, we handle all the paperwork. This includes checking your property lines, getting any required permits from the city, and contacting utility companies to mark underground lines. We also confirm your fence design and schedule a start date that works for you. Most homeowners are surprised by how much easier this is when you have an experienced contractor managing the details.
Step 3: Professional Installation
Our installation crew arrives on schedule with all the materials and equipment needed to complete your project. We start by marking post locations and digging holes to the proper depth, typically 2 to 3 feet depending on your fence height and type. Posts are set in concrete and allowed to cure properly. Then we install rails and pickets or panels, checking everything for level and alignment as we go. We work efficiently but never rush, because quality takes time.
Step 4: Final Inspection and Cleanup
After installation is complete, we walk you through the finished fence and answer any questions you have about maintenance or care. We clean up thoroughly, removing all debris and leftover materials from your property. You should not have to lift a finger. We also provide warranty information and leave you with our contact details in case you need anything in the future.
Fence Types We Install in Washington, UT
We install every major type of residential and commercial fencing, and we can help you choose the right material based on your budget, maintenance preferences, and how you plan to use the fence. Each material has advantages, and there is no single best choice for everyone.
Wood fences remain the most popular choice for homeowners who want a classic, natural look. Cedar and pine are both excellent options that can be stained or painted to match your home. Wood gives you maximum design flexibility and costs less upfront than some alternatives, though it does require periodic maintenance to stay looking great.
Vinyl fences offer the ultimate in low maintenance. They never need painting, resist fading from our intense Utah sun, and clean up easily with just soap and water. Vinyl costs more initially but saves you time and money over the life of the fence. It is perfect for busy homeowners who want a beautiful fence without the upkeep.
Chain-link fencing provides affordable security for larger properties, commercial sites, or homeowners who need to enclose a big area on a budget. Modern chain-link comes in various colors and can be enhanced with privacy slats. It is incredibly durable and requires almost no maintenance, making it ideal for practical applications.
Aluminum fencing combines the elegant look of wrought iron with rust-proof durability and lower cost. It works beautifully around pools, along property borders, or anywhere you want security without blocking your view. Aluminum holds up extremely well in our climate and needs virtually no maintenance beyond occasional cleaning.
