By Exterior Fence Builders, Inc. | Serving Homeowners Across Gwinnett County
At Exterior Fence Builders, Inc., we know that installing a fence is more than a home improvement project—it's a personal investment in your property's security, privacy, and style. After years of working with homeowners across [Your City], we’ve learned that a well-built fence starts with a smart plan.
Here are 10 insider tips based on what most homeowners don't think about—until it’s too late:
1. Know Why You're Building—Not Just What
Before we talk materials or measurements, we ask: “What problem is this fence solving for you?”
- ✅ Want to keep a dog from jumping out?
- ✅ Need privacy from that new two-story house next door?
- ✅ Trying to reduce noise from the street?
Your “why” will shape every other decision.
2. Don’t Let the City Surprise You
We’ve seen it too often: a beautiful new fence... followed by a violation notice. 😬
That’s why we always help clients in [Your City] navigate local rules, HOA guidelines, and permit processes before digging starts.
3. Your Budget Should Be Honest, Not Optimistic
There’s nothing worse than running out of money mid-project. We help you build a budget that accounts for materials, labor, site prep, and even possible surprises (like rocky soil or tree roots).
4. Style + Substance = A Fence You’ll Love
It’s easy to get overwhelmed by options—shadowbox? board-on-board? horizontal slats?
We’ll walk you through what styles match your home, how they function, and what’s trending in neighborhoods like [Popular Local Subdivision].
5. Not All Materials Are Created Equal
Here’s the truth: cedar smells great, vinyl lasts forever, and aluminum doesn’t rust.
We’ll help you compare material options for your climate, budget, and goals. And yes, we’ll show you real samples.
6. Measuring Once Isn’t Enough
Professional measurement is critical—especially near slopes, trees, or uneven ground.
We stake out your fence line and mark utility lines before giving you a final design and quote.
7. Real Pros Save You Time, Money, and Regret
We’re not a big-box crew or a weekend handyman operation.
We’re licensed, insured, and experienced. Our installers show up on time, clean up after themselves, and leave behind only one thing: a perfect fence.
8. Privacy Isn’t One-Size-Fits-All
Not every tall fence blocks views—or sound. If you're near a busy road, or you want total seclusion, we’ll recommend specific panel types, heights, and even sound-dampening materials.
9. Gates Can Make or Break a Fence
This one’s often overlooked. We always ask:
- ➡️ Where will you need to walk through?
- ➡️ Do you need wide access for lawn equipment or deliveries?
- ➡️ Should it be lockable or self-closing?
10. Your Fence Will Outlive Its First Owner—If You Care for It
We provide care guides for every fence we install. Whether it’s how to seal wood before winter or how to clean vinyl without damage, we help your fence look great long after the last post is set.
