Kentucky Fence Contractor

Fence contractor -   weather  it is because your home or business needs security,  you need to keep a pet safe or you want to improve your homes curb appeal, installing a fence can be the best way to go. Because fences come in such a wide variety of styles, sizes and design options, you’ll be sure to find the perfect fence for your property, even though it can be a tough choice to make. Add in the size of the project, the required man hours and the many tools that are necessary to get a fence installed correctly, it’s not a do-it-yourself kind of project. That’s why hiring a professional local fence contractor is so important to getting the perfect fence for your property.

Many local and regional areas sometimes require a license and builders risk/liability insurance. Some areas also require that a bond be posted before acquiring any permits. A quick chat with a local building department official can set your mind at ease and provide you with the necessary background information on prospective fence contractors and the requirements that you will need to complete to get your fence project off of the ground.

You may also need to contact your local homeowners association or committee that controls the deed restrictions in your neighborhood. You may find that many deed restricted communities require homeowners to approve their fence design, height and placement on your property prior to obtaining a permit. If you don’t comply, you may get sued by the homeowners association and be required by law to remove the fence.

Once you’ve ensured that your fencing project is ready to go and you’ve picked out a few potential fence contractors to place bids, you’re only half way done. While a proper license ensures that your potential fence contractor is following the law, it doesn’t mean they will do a good job or have enough experience. Always ask for at least 3-5 contactable references to ensure they have done good work in the past. Visit the site when possible and call or contact the homeowner in person. With a long list of past happy customers, the right licensing and a good bid, you’ll be sure to get the right fencing contractor for the job.
