Winter probably isn't the season that comes to mind when thinking about the best time of year to install a fence. Most homeowners think getting a new fence should be saved until spring or summer. Thanks to the mild winters we have been having the past few years, as long as the ground isn’t frozen, you don’t have to wait until spring arrives to start working on your fence product.
Trees, shrubs, and plants go dormant in the colder months. Since your yard is dormant, your plant life is less likely to be damaged during fence construction. Unless your home is surrounded by evergreens. If you use trees and shrubs to increase your privacy, all that protection falls away during the autumn. A vinyl or wood privacy fence can help if you are feeling exposed during these winter months, and you don’t need to wait until spring.
And, when springtime comes around, everyone starts to want to get their new fence installed. Unfortunately, digging up sections of your yard to install a fence can put a damper on your family’s fun. There is a possibly that you might end up waiting two weeks to have your personalized appointment with a fence contractor and even longer for the fence installation. By installing a fence in the winter, you can beat the spring rush. Since it is typically offseason for us, we are not only more readily available in the wintertime but can install your fence without infringing on your spring and summer activities. So while your neighbors are waiting, you can enjoy your new fence.
Even though many people don’t realize it, you can install a fence in the winter. In fact, the colder months might just be the best time of year to install a fence for your family. Don’t put off your backyard project until the springtime. If you want to beat the crowd, prepare for winter weather, and maintain your privacy, now is the perfect time for your installation project.
