Fence Installation
Professional fence installation services that deliver lasting quality and curb appeal for your property.
Why Choose Professional Installation
Installing a fence might seem straightforward, but there is more to it than digging holes and setting posts. A professionally installed fence not only looks better, it also lasts longer and performs better in Florida weather. When you work with OCE Ocala Fencing, you get a team that understands local soil conditions, drainage patterns, and building codes that affect fence installations in Ocala and surrounding areas.
The foundation of any good fence is proper post installation. Posts need to be set at the right depth and spacing for your specific fence type and soil conditions. In Central Florida, we deal with sandy soil in some areas and clay in others. Each requires different installation techniques to ensure your fence stays straight and sturdy through storms and seasonal ground movement.
We also handle all the details that homeowners often overlook. This includes calling 811 to mark underground utilities, obtaining necessary permits, checking property lines, and verifying HOA requirements before we start. These steps prevent costly mistakes and delays that can turn a simple fence project into a frustrating experience.
Our Installation Process
Step 1: Site Assessment and Planning
Every fence installation starts with a thorough site assessment. We visit your property to evaluate the terrain, identify any obstacles like trees or utility boxes, and discuss your goals for the fence. Whether you need privacy, security, or decorative appeal, we help you choose the right fence style and materials for your needs and budget.
Step 2: Accurate Measurements and Layout
Precise measurements make the difference between a fence that looks professional and one that looks amateur. We mark the fence line, measure for gate openings, and ensure everything aligns with property boundaries. If you are unsure about your property lines, we recommend getting a survey before installation to avoid disputes with neighbors.
Step 3: Professional Installation
Our crew arrives on schedule with the right tools and materials. We set posts in concrete using proper depth and alignment techniques. Rails and pickets or panels are installed level and secure. Gates receive special attention to ensure smooth operation and proper latching. Throughout the process, we keep your property clean and address any questions you have.
The installation timeline depends on fence length, style, and site conditions. Most residential installations take one to three days. We provide you with a realistic timeline during your estimate and keep you updated if weather or other factors cause changes.
