Are You Ready for Your Spring Fence Installation?
Check on the regulations
Have you made sure that your fence installation will adhere to all local rules and regulations? Some municipalities require your fence to be installed a certain number of inches away from public walkways while others don’t allow fences that are taller than a particular height. Also, it’s important to be sure that your fence will be installed on your fence so you don’t annoy the neighbors.. You should also check with your homeowner’s association as well as your city’s by-laws to ensure you don’t accidentally break any rules which could delay your installation or make it impossible.
Talk to your neighbors
Have you chatted with your neighbors about your new fence? If not, you can prevent many headaches by giving them a heads up before you start construction. It’s good etiquette to talk to your adjacent neighbors about your plans, especially if it will affect the aesthetics of their home in any way.
Do your homework
