Frequently Asked Questions
What types of fencing do you install?
We install a full range of residential and commercial fencing options. This includes wood fencing, vinyl fencing, chain link fencing, metal fencing, and commercial fencing systems. Each material offers different benefits depending on privacy needs, security goals, appearance preferences, and budget.
During an estimate, we help you understand which fencing options make the most sense for your specific property and intended use.
Do you provide both residential and commercial fencing?
Yes. J A Property Fencing INC. provides fencing services for both residential and commercial properties. Homeowners commonly contact us for backyard privacy fences, pet enclosures, and property boundary fencing. Businesses and property managers rely on us for perimeter fencing, access control fencing, and professional looking commercial installations.
Our experience across both residential and commercial projects allows us to adapt our approach to meet different functional and operational needs.
How long does a typical fence installation take?
The timeline for fence installation depends on several factors, including the size of the project, the type of fencing material, and the layout of the property. Many residential fence installations are completed within one to two days. Larger or more complex projects may require additional time.
Before work begins, we provide a clear timeline so you know what to expect. We focus on efficient scheduling while maintaining proper installation quality.
How do I choose the right fencing material?
Choosing the right fencing material depends on how the fence will be used and what matters most to you. Wood fencing is often chosen for privacy and traditional appearance. Vinyl fencing is popular for low maintenance and consistent appearance. Chain link fencing offers durability and visibility, especially for larger areas. Metal fencing provides strength and a refined look for both residential and commercial settings.
During your consultation, we explain the benefits and considerations of each option so you can make an informed decision.
Can you repair an existing fence instead of replacing it?
In many cases, yes. Fence repair is often a cost effective way to restore strength and function. Common repairs include resetting leaning posts, replacing damaged panels, repairing gates, and restoring chain link tension.
We evaluate the condition of your fence and provide honest guidance on whether repair or replacement offers better long term value. Our goal is to recommend solutions that make sense for your situation.
What causes fences to lean or fail over time?
Fences can lean or fail due to several factors. Soil movement, water exposure, improper post depth, storm damage, and everyday wear all contribute to fence issues over time. Gates may also sag due to frequent use or improper support.
Proper installation plays a major role in preventing these problems. That is why we focus on correct post setting, spacing, and alignment during every installation.
Do you install fences on uneven or sloped properties?
Yes. Many properties across Montgomery County, Chester County, and Bucks County have slopes or uneven terrain. Our team has experience installing fences on a variety of landscapes.
We plan fence layouts carefully to maintain strength and appearance, even on challenging terrain. Fence height, spacing, and post placement are adjusted as needed to suit the property.
What maintenance is required after installation?
Maintenance requirements vary by fencing material. Wood fencing may require periodic inspection and care over time. Vinyl fencing generally requires minimal upkeep, such as occasional cleaning. Chain link and metal fencing typically need basic monitoring to ensure posts and gates remain secure.
We provide guidance on maintenance expectations so you know how to care for your fence after installation.
Do you handle fence repairs after storms or damage?
Yes. Storm damage is a common reason property owners contact us for fence repair. Fallen branches, high winds, and impact can damage fence sections, posts, and gates.
Our team evaluates storm damaged fences and recommends practical repairs to restore strength and safety. In many cases, targeted repairs can address the damage without full replacement.
How do I prepare for a fence installation?
Preparing for a fence installation is usually simple. We recommend clearing personal items from the work area and ensuring pets are secured during installation. If you have specific access concerns or scheduling needs, discussing them ahead of time helps keep the project running smoothly.
We review preparation details during the planning stage so you know what to expect before work begins.
Do you help with gate placement and access planning?
Yes. Gate placement is an important part of fence planning. We discuss how you use your property and recommend gate locations that support convenience and access while maintaining security.
For commercial properties, gate placement often plays a role in traffic flow and access control. We take these factors into account during planning.
