Frequently Asked Questions
1.) How long does it take to have out project started after the proposal is accepted and the deposit is paid?
Generally 2-3 weeks. However there are variables that can make it take less or more time such as what time of year it is when you’re ready to move forward with your project. What township you live in and how long it takes to have your permit issued. Whether you’re proposing to install a fence that requires extra applications in your township such as a variance. The most common reasons you may need a variance are; you live in a corner home and your fence will be in the back and on the side of your house. If you want a fence that’s not permitted in your township. For example an 8 foot high fence is not permitted in some areas but a variance may be issued in certain circumstances or a certain type of material may be prohibited but could be allowed through an approved variance.
2.) What type of material requires the least amount of maintenance?
Vinyl, Aluminum, and chainlink require the least amount of maintenance.
