Learn about Fence Builders

Fence Builders plan fence lines around property boundaries, grade, access, and local requirements. A wood fence, for example, may need to meet setback or height rules that vary by jurisdiction. In the United States, check the proposed line against a property survey and confirm permit requirements before excavation.

Fence Builders

On an active construction site, temporary fence builders may need to adjust panel runs as work areas and delivery access change. Temporary chain-link panels can separate work from areas that remain in use; plan how panels will be relocated and stabilized for the surface and site conditions.

For a residential boundary, wood fence builders can specify board spacing and post placement to suit the yard and the intended level of screening. A gate also needs a clear opening and suitable support, so include its location and swing in the plan.

How should a fence follow a sloped yard?

Ask the contractor to show whether the fence will step between posts or follow the grade. Check the drawing for gaps beneath the panels and changes in the top line.

What should a temporary fence plan account for?

Mark any areas where the boundary may need to move as work progresses. Confirm how panels will be stabilized on the site’s surface and who is responsible for relocating them.

When should a wood fence be stained or painted?

Follow the finish manufacturer’s instructions and check that the lumber is dry enough for application. Include the finish and treatment of cut ends in the written scope.
