Important!
We encourage you to speak with one of our fence experts before focusing solely on price! There are cheaper, very poor quality fence materials available that will not last. We don't use them. There are also very inexperienced and unprofessional fence installers who continually cut corners and don't stand behind their work regardless of what their so-called warranty says.
Fences must stand up to Minneapolis Minnesota high winds, harsh weather, and physical abuse from animals, kids, gardeners, and neighbors. Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to make a decision about the fence you want to protect and beautify your home and the people you care about.
We understand that homeowners in Minneapolis Minnesota want a great fence and don't want to wait forever to get it! Generally, it only takes a few days maximum for one of our fence experts to get to most areas of Minneapolis Minnesota, to walk your property and give you a detailed estimate of your entire residential fence project.
Once you approve the estimate, we can often install residential fences in most of Minneapolis Minnesota within 1 to 3 weeks, but please check with our office of your specific project. There are times throughout the year where that timeframe may be less, or it may be longer.
There are other things that can delay the start of a fencing project. If you selected a fencing material, style, color, or options that need to be special ordered, that will often delay the installation of your fence. These materials come from various manufacturers and are delivery times are beyond our control. We will help you to identify, in advance, any of your choices that are known to be likely to cause these additional delays and we will offer alternatives whenever possible.
Make it Easy on Yourself!
Don't stress yourself! Our fence experts will gladly come to your property and take all the measurements you need! We are a full service fence company that specializes in residential fence installation. You do not need to work hard to get a great new fence.
DIY Fence Estimate
If you'd like to get a rough idea on your own about how much fencing you will need, follow these easy steps:
Caution!
Fencing is often priced and sold by SECTIONS, not by linear feet! Even when the linear footage is included specifically on price estimates, the total number of sections is a factor in this pricing. So, “price per linear foot” is only a rough estimate and rarely represents the actual cost of the finished fence!
This is a very interesting difference that we would love to explore and explain to you if you'd like to speak with one of our fence experts further. Be aware, “price per linear foot” is a ploy that many unprofessional fence installers in the Minneapolis Minnesota area use!

Every local municipality has a separate set of requirements when it comes to building permits, and that includes residential fencing.

Fence placement is ultimately the responsibility of you, the customer. Moving a fence after it's already been installed can be costly, so it's never a bad idea to get a survey to be safe.

Fencing is one of the easiest industries to get into for start-up business and novice laborers. For these people, who are looking to make a few extra dollars installing fences, a shovel, a level, and a string line may be all they need.
As a result, there are many individuals and/or companies who show up in Minneapolis Minnesota, install residential fences for a short time, then disappear. We see it all the time. Beware! You only want to work with a fully licensed and insured fencing contractor in Minneapolis Minnesota.
Here are some of the main pitfalls of working with non-professionals:
The Residential Fence Warranty is Void
If the individual or company that installed your residential fence isn't still around, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly, which is very common with non-professionals.
The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long
As a professional fencing contractor, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. We are dedicated to improving our knowledge and skills of the best fencing materials and the best fence installation techniques in order to maximize the strength and life of your fence. Companies that simply install fences as something they do "on the side" usually have no idea how much they actually don't know about residential fencing or what is best for you and your property.
They Put Your Property at Risk
Installing residential fence in the Minneapolis Minnesota area is actually somewhat risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the installation of a fence can blow materials and damage your home. We've seen concrete splatter up onto cars or drip down beautiful driveways or walkways as buckets of wet concrete are transported. Deep tire tracks sinking into your grass is another common issue. The secondary damage to homes and yards while installing fences by untrained labor is a very common thing.
Additionally, anyone hurt on your property while they are working puts you at risk! If you hire an unlicensed or uninsured contractor, you may be liable and your homeowners insurance may deny payment!
At first glance, hiring a novice to install your fence may appear to save you a few dollars, but in the long run it is almost certainly a price that you simply cannot afford to pay!
Customers are required to be home on the day of installation. The foreman and customer will do a pre walk through and post walk through to make sure all the installation details are reviewed and clearly understood and that our customers are fully satisfied with their new fence.
Every local municipality has a separate set of requirements when it comes to building permits, and that includes commercial fencing. Sometimes the specific height of the fence or placement of the fence or purpose of the fence can impact the need for a permit. There are also HOA considerations in some areas.
We have installed many commercial fences in just about every possible area across Minneapolis Minnesota so we are happy to answer these sorts of questions and/or to guide you through the process.

There are many small fence companies in Minneapolis Minnesota that list commercial fencing as one of their services. If you have a very small commercial fencing project, then a fence company that typically does mostly residential fencing is probably qualified for the job. Otherwise, be sure to stick with a company that is equipped and specially trained for commercial fence projects.
Also be sure to choose a reliable fence company that has been around. Here are some of the most common pitfalls of using an unreliable, unlicensed, or uninsured commercial fencing contractor:
The Commercial Fence Warranty is Void
If the company that installed your commercial fence isn't still in business down the road, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly, which is fairly common.
The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long
As a professional fencing contractor, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. We are dedicated to improving our knowledge and skills of the best fencing materials and the best fence installation techniques for commercial fencing in order to maximize the strength and life of your fence. Companies that simply install fences as something they do "on the side" usually have no idea how much they actually don't know about commercial fencing or what is best for you and your property.
They Put Your Property at Risk
Installing commercial fences in the Minneapolis Minnesota area is actually somewhat risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the installation of a fence can blow materials and damage your business or customer's cars. We've seen concrete splatter up onto cars or drip down long stretches of walkways and driveways as wet concrete or other materials are transported. The secondary damage to businesses or your customer's vehicles while installing fences by poorly trained labor is a very common thing.
Additionally, anyone hurt on your property while they are working puts you at risk! If you hire an unqualified fencing contractor, you may be liable.
At first glance, hiring a "cheaper" fence company to install your commercial fence may appear to save you a few dollars, but in the long run it is almost certainly a price that you simply cannot afford to pay!
Customers are required to be present on the day of installation. The foreman and customer will do a pre walk through and post walk through to make sure all the installation details are reviewed and clearly understood and that our customers are fully satisfied with their new fence.

There are many small fence companies in Minneapolis Minnesota that install chain link fencing. Very few of them specifically train their teams on the best installation techniques and practices for installing chain link fencing. Unfortunately, this means that your chain link is almost certainly not installed as securely as it could be, which ultimately can reduce the quality and lifespan of your fence.
Inferior installation techniques and using improper tools can also damage the chain link during installation which may have the unfortunate impact of voiding the manufacturer's warranty because you chose an unqualified contractor not approved by the manufacturer.
Also be sure to choose a reliable fence company that has been around. Here are some of the most common pitfalls of using an unreliable, unlicensed, or uninsured chain link fencing contractor:
The Chain Link Fence Warranty is Void
If the company that installed your chain link isn't still in business down the road, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly, which is fairly common.

You can certainly call us to get even faster answers from our fence experts!

There are "other" things that can delay the start of a fencing project. If you select a specific vinyl fence style, color, or options that need to be special ordered; that will often delay the installation of your fence. Like nearly every fencing contractor in the Minneapolis Minnesota, we do not stock a large amount of custom vinyl fencing options.

Wrought iron fencing is a great option for properties of all shapes and sizes in the Minneapolis area. It is a very strong material that creates a high level of security with an unmatched elegant design. If your priorities are design and strength, wrought iron is a perfect solution for any home or business.
Wrought iron fencing is one of the more costly types of fencing in the Minneapolis area due to the weight and strength of the metal and the craftsmanship it takes to build. When you are in the market for a new fence, speak to our fence professionals who can help you get a quote for whichever types of fencing you're looking for and help you find the perfect fit for your goals and your budget.
As far as earth-friendly fences go, wrought iron fences are a great choice. The metal is easy to maintain, long-lasting, and recyclable if you need to in the future. All of these factors contribute to it being a very eco-friendly type of fence to install at your Minneapolis area property.
You can expect a wrought iron fence in the Minneapolis Minnesota area to last a lifetime! It is not surprising that wrought iron can last a lifetime given the sturdy, resilient metal it is made from. The durability of your wrought iron fence is affected by a number of variables, including the climate, maintenance, and protective coating, but despite these, you can be confident that your fence will last for a very long time.
Wrought iron fencing needs very little maintenance over its lifetime at your Minneapolis property. Being proactive is the best way to make sure your fence will last without any issues. Keeping your wrought iron free of dents will help prevent rust, so avoid using lawn trimmers too close to your fence or planting bushes too close to your fence, which can hide problems if they arise. Other than a rinse every now and then, your wrought iron fence should need no cleaning or repairs, and you'll also receive a manufacturer's warranty that should cover major problems for your peace of mind.
Customers are required to be home on the day of installation. The foreman and customer will do a pre walk through and post walk through to make sure all the installation details are reviewed and clearly understood and that our customers are fully satisfied with their new fence.
Traditionally, farm fencing is wooden post and rail fencing, split rail fences, or high tensile fences. Welded wire can be added to post and rail fences for specific small animal yards. There are variations of each type based on what you need to enclose. For example, if you have horses, you can border your land with split rail, but if you have smaller animals like chickens or pigs, you'll need something closer to the ground and with less open space. Our team of fence experts is happy to discuss your specific needs and find the perfect solution for your Minnesota property.
Farm fencing works very well when it comes to following the changing levels of ground across many fields. Wood fencing particularly is always one of the most adjustable types of fencing and can be modified to your specifications.
Barbed wire is often added to farm fences in the Minnesota area. It can be useful in order to contain your livestock and also to protect your animals from predators that may try to come through your fence. Even if you have fields of vegetables or other crops, barbed wire can help keep animals from getting in to eat your plants.
Yes! We often install post and rail farm fencing at various communities and for individual residential properties all across the Minnesota region. When you speak with our associates, ask about our variety of wood rail fences and explore the best options with our experienced staff.
The majority of the post and rail farm fencing we install in the Minnesota area is the 3 rail or 4 rail options. 2 rail post and rail farm fencing is less common, but it is completely up to you which one you prefer!
Customers are required to be home on the day of installation. The foreman and customer will do a pre walk through and post walk through to make sure all the installation details are reviewed and clearly understood and that our customers are fully satisfied with their new fence.
Your wood fence should be protected with a high-quality stain and sealer, but the decision is ultimately yours to make. Proper care and maintenance of your wood fence will absolutely extend the life of your fence for many years to come! The harsh weather conditions in the Minneapolis area can severely impact wood fences that are not properly cared for. Speak to one of our wood fence experts to learn more about the specific steps you can take for your particular situation.
If your fence or deck has recently been built, you might need to wait a period of time before staining it. Although there are discrepancies about when a fence or deck should be stained, there is a general rule of thumb. If the wood has a moisture level below 13%, the fence or deck can be stained. However, delays might occur in the event of rain, so it is best to stain when there are a few clear weather days in a row.
In general, there are no temperature or sunlight restrictions on our oil-based penetrating stains. However, the wood must be dry, with a moisture level under 13%. As a result, in some parts of the country, it is generally safe to stain year round.
In general, you want your contractor to be able to access the wooden structure with ease. Trimming back large landscaping such as shrubs and smaller trees from fence or deck lines will help your contractor be able to get to all parts of your fence or deck. Try to remove all furniture from decks, along with ornamental items or decor, such as hanging or potted plants, patio lighting (if it is against the fence or in the way of a deck structure), and outdoor rugs. Mowing the grass around the base of all structures is beneficial, along with weed eating along fence lines. Also, your contractor would appreciate that you turn off any scheduled sprinkler use.
Maintaining your outdoor space is just as important as maintaining your indoor space! Several times a year, it is best to clean stained decks and fences with a broom or leaf blower, to keep dirt particles and debris off the wood. A soft wash with gentle cleaning chemicals is recommended once a year to "sanitize" your wooden structures, and to kill any organic growth that your fence or deck might accumulate. Other than general cleaning, it is best to apply a maintenance coat of stain to your fence every three years to keep it looking perfect. For decking, this practice is best done every two years on horizontal surfaces and high traffic areas, and every four years on the vertical surfaces such as railings or spindles. This maintenance suggestion also depends on the color of stain you have chosen for your structure. Maintenance could be needed sooner for lightly pigmented colors or natural tones, while more heavily pigmented and darker stains tend to last longer between applications.
It is not too late to stain your fence or deck! Even an older structure can be cleaned and restored. If your fece or deck is not very old, a basic wash is usually needed prior to staining and sealing. If your fence or deck is a bit older, a full restoration might be necessary before staining. This would include a cleaning and a wood brightener application. For decks, the wood usually needs to be sanded smooth after the cleaning process has been completed and before the staining begins.
