Building a Fence

There are many benefits to building a fence around your property. A well-built fence is both attractive and practical, adding security and privacy to your outdoor space and increasing the value of your property. A fence will create a secluded space for outdoor entertaining, relaxation, gardening and for the kids to play in, enhancing your enjoyment of your property.

Step 2: Preparing for the fence project

About a week before construction will begin on your new fence, they’ll contact you to review the final plan and all it’s details so you’re clear on how everything will go. They’ll also make arrangements with Alberta One Call to make sure the site is fit for digging. Alberta One Call will visit your property and mark out all of the utility lines including gas, cable and water to make sure they are avoided and not damaged during the construction of your fence.

Step 3: Constructing your new fence

On average, it will take about 2 to 5 days to complete your new fence, depending on the size of your property and the scope of the project. When the construction crew arrives they will do a walk through and project review to make sure everyone knows what is required with the project. Then they will proceed with construction, receive all raw materials and equipment required on site, dig post holes and build you fence and gates!

You can be sure that your property will be left clean and free of clutter, tools and debris during and after construction.

Step 4: A walk through of the finished project

Once construction is complete, First Class Fencing will take you for a final detailed walk through to ensure you are completely satisfied with your brand new fence. They’ll discuss any minor changes you might require, answer all of your questions and complete a project sign-off sheet once you’re entirely pleased with the end result.

Step 5: Payment

Once your project is complete and you’ve signed off on it, you will receive an invoice via email, mail, fax or in person, depending on what works best for you.
