The fence experts of Wilmington think it’s a smart move to install a new fence on your residential or commercial property for many reasons. We will break down the three main reasons below.

Increased Security:

If your home or business doesn’t have a fence around it it’s wide open to the outside world. This means that at any time someone or something unwanted could enter your property with no effort at all. Our customers who live in a suburban area are often less may concerned about that. But if someone walked on their property and stole their outdoor furniture they may change their minds. This happens more than people think. Having a new fence installed around your property deters people from doing such things.

Some of our customers have old fences around their properties. This still makes them vulnerable. Old fences are likely to have holes in or under it. Making it easy for animals to enter which could endanger your pets or livestock. Many property owners don’t have sufficient time to survey their fence properly meaning new holes could arise at any time as the fence continues to age.

As you can tell adding a new fence to any property safeguards it from unwanted neighbors or visitors. Call our fence team today and we will point you in the right direction depending on your property needs.

Higher Property Value:

Fences offer a homeowner peace of mind and look very attractive to potential home buyers. This is an important fact if you’re looking to sell your home in the future. The first thing someone sees when they pull up to your property is a fence that’s installed around the perimeter. By having a durable, attractive and well constructed fence it can impress almost anyone pulling up to your home. That impression will be long lasting in any potential buyers mind. First impressions are everything and can make or break a sale. The value of your property monetarily will also rise due to the aesthetic upgrade and protection of your home and property. A property value increases by 65% once a fence has been installed. Call our fence contractors today and get your new fence installation started.

Improved Aesthetic Feel:

Homes with fences and gates have better security and a nicer overall feel to them. When you picture a classic American home, you probably imagine a white picket fence surrounding it. Our culture has ingrained this ideal picture into our mind for decades and it still stand true. A well-painted, well-constructed fence built around your property can be very appealing to the eye.

Installation time frames depend on the type of fence being installed as well as the season. However for a standard fence installation our waiting period is around 1-2 weeks time. Some projects that require extra customization may take longer to get into the schedule. In the peak season we estimate 6-8 weeks for our fence installers to get started. Projects requiring permits may take longer due to wait time.
