Why Now Is The Best Time To Install A New Fence

Building a new fence on your property is a big decision. Not only is it a significant financial investment, but you’ll be changing the look and function of your entire landscape. That is why we recommend people take plenty of time to discuss their options with our team and iron out every detail before construction begins. 

Many people rush into home improvement projects in the summer, but now is actually the best time to install a new fence. Here’s why:

Autumn and the holidays are less busy than the summertime. 

FloriFence is almost always booked in the summer, which means our availability for your project will be highly limited (unless you book far in advance). This also means your project can take longer than usual, as our crews have to spend time at several job sites in order to meet demand. When you plan your fencing project in the fall and winter, we have more flexible schedules and can make your fencing installation work for you. 

You can reshape your landscaping in the spring.

For your fencing installation, you may have to dig up some plants or reshape your landscaping in order to accommodate the new fence. This can be time-intensive in the summer when everything is in full bloom. However, as the summer foliage starts to wane, you can more easily shape your fencing for next spring. 

A greater variety of materials are available. 

During the summer, construction supplies of all kinds are in high demand. This can sometimes limit your options for fencing material, whether something is sold out or on backorder from local suppliers. If you wait until the fall or winter, you won’t have to compete for the fencing style you really want. 

Home improvements make great holiday gifts. 

If you’re looking for something special to give to your spouse for the holidays, a new fence might be exactly what they need. While not a traditional present under the tree, a new fence installation can dramatically improve the curb appeal of your home and the functionality of your yard if you have children, pets, or gardens. 

If you’re looking into a new fence installation, don’t wait until next summer! Now is the time to buy so you can enjoy your new fence come springtime. Contact us today for a consultation.
