Fence Company GTA & York Region | Fencing & Fence Contractors

Q: How many years should a fence last?

The average lifespan of a fence can vary depending on the type of material used to build the structure. Vinyl and aluminum fences can last up to 50 years, while wooden fences have an average life of 15 to 20 years, depending on the type of wood used. Let our experienced fencing contractors help you determine which style and materials are right for your home.

Q: Will my fence contractor get approval from the Ontario Dig Line?

Your fence contractor must get approval from the <a href="https://ontarioonecall.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ontario Dig Line</a> if they are excavating a new building, repairing infrastructure, landscaping, or any other project that requires breaking ground.

Q: Do your fencing contractors use nails or screws to attach the framework?

We always use screws to attach the framework to the post. This is a crucial structural element since the post naturally wants to twist. If your post twists and only a nail has been used to secure the framework, it can start to pull the entire structure apart. Screws help keep everything in place and ensure your safety and the longevity of your fence.

Q: Where do you source your lumber from?

We source our lumber fencing materials in large quantities and will purchase directly from the mill as often as possible.

Q: How much does it cost to work with a fencing contractor?

The cost of building a fence in the GTA or York Region can vary depending on the size, structure, and materials used for your project. We offer a free discovery call to discuss your design ideas, budgets, and timelines and provide more accurate estimates for our services.

Q: What are the payment terms for your fence services?

While many contractors expect a 10 or even 20 percent deposit when the agreement is made, we only take one payment from our clients. Payment is collected only when the project is complete, and a walkthrough has been completed to your satisfaction.

Frequently Asked Questions About Professional Fencing Installation

Why is it important to have a professional fencing contractor install my fence?

While many people opt for DIY fences for cost savings, the reality is that attempting to install a fence on your own can lead to more costly complications along the way.

Fence installations require great precision to ensure the structure is straight and the holes are deep enough for posts to be installed. Certain materials require unique concrete mixes, and choosing the wrong one can lead to the concrete setting incorrectly and compromise the integrity of your fence.

Lastly, installing a residential fence often requires permits to be submitted to and approved by the city. Failure to complete this step can lead to fines or instructions to remove the structure altogether.

Instead of jumping through these hoops yourself, working with an experienced fencing company can help you take the weight of these decisions off your shoulders. Letting a seasoned fence contractor take care of the design and installation process gives you more time to spend on the things that matter at home, knowing your project is in capable hands.

Do I need a permit for fencing installation?

Knowing what you can and cannot do when it comes to installing a new fence is important to ensuring your project goes off without a hitch.

Toronto and areas in York Region have specific by-laws for landscape and fence installations. Many will outline particular height requirements, distances from property lines, and instructions for fences that will double as swimming pool enclosures. Make sure you check the requirements in your specific city before embarking on your fencing project.
