Whether you want wood, vinyl, chain link, aluminum or iron, we have relationships with top suppliers to get you the best fences at competitive prices. We’ll also assist with stain colors, post caps, privacy slats, and other accessories to create your ideal customized fence.

Permitting

Most fence projects require city or county permits, and we handle this important process for you from start to finish. After finalizing your design plans, we’ll complete the permit application, submit required documents, and obtain the permit.

If any changes are needed to comply with local regulations, we’ll adjust accordingly to avoid any delays or problems. You can count on us to make sure all required permits are in place before work begins.

Preparation and Layout

With the permit secured, we’re ready to start your fence installation. Our crew will arrive and layout the perimeter of your new fence using spray paint or stakes.

We take precise measurements to ensure the fence lines up properly with your property boundaries and meets any required setback limits. Proper planning and preparation prevents problems down the road.

Demolition and Removal

Now it’s time to tear out your old, dilapidated fence. We’ll demolish and dispose of any remaining sections carefully and cleanly. We take steps to protect your yard and landscaping during the teardown process.

Any gate hardware you want to save will be set aside for re-installation on your new fence. We’ll also inspect the area and ground underneath where the original fence was located. Any necessary repairs or improvements to the site are addressed at this stage before moving forward.

Post Hole Installation

The foundation of a long-lasting, sturdy fence starts with proper post hole installation. Based on the type of fence being installed, our team will dig holes to the correct depth and spacing using an auger.

We carefully assess the soil conditions and make any adjustments needed to ensure fence posts have adequate structural support. Proper drainage is also critical, so we’ll add gravel, sand or concrete as needed.

Fence Post Setting

Now we’re ready to set the fence posts in the holes, verifying alignment, height, and vertical plumb as we work. For concrete footings, we allow ample time for the concrete to properly cure before moving to the next steps.

Whether using metal post anchors in concrete or securing directly to the earth, we take great care to position each post perfectly for the best fence performance. We utilize leveling tools and string lines across the tops of posts to confirm consistent accuracy.

Fence Panel Installation

Once the posts are secured in place, we’re ready to start attaching your beautiful new fencing. For wood fences, we install each section, post cap, and hardware systematically to ensure tight connections and proper spacing.

Vinyl, aluminum and chain link fence panels are secured and aligned according to manufacturer specifications. We install any gates, motors, privacy slats, latticework, or other accessories as the fence comes together. Before long, you’ll start to see your stunning new fence take shape.

Gate Installation

For fences with gates, extra attention and precision is required for smooth operation and lasting durability. Our experts will properly install your gates and adjust the hinges so they open and close correctly. Security gate hardware will be properly aligned and tested.

Any smart gate motors and accessories will be configured for optimal convenience and functionality. We want to make sure your gates function flawlessly while complementing the design of your new fence.

Finishing Touches

As the final step, we’ll do a thorough walkaround to put the finishing touches on your new fence installation. We’ll clean the site, haul away debris, and confirm you are 100% satisfied.

Our crew isn’t done until you have the beautiful, high-quality fence you’ve been dreaming about. We want you to be thrilled with how your new fence enhances the look, functionality, and value of your Columbia, SC property.
