Middlebury Fencing Company

Local Contractor Who Gets Connecticut Right

We’ve been handling fence installation throughout Middlebury and surrounding Connecticut communities for years. We understand how Connecticut weather beats up fencing, which materials hold up best, and how to install posts that won’t heave when the ground freezes.

We’re licensed, insured, and local. That means when you call, you get someone who knows Middlebury’s permit requirements, understands property line issues, and has worked in your neighborhood before.

Most importantly, we do what we say we’ll do. Show up when scheduled, finish when promised, and clean up completely when done.

Fence Installation Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

We start with a property visit to understand exactly what you need. We’ll discuss your goals, measure the area, check property lines, and explain your material options. No pressure, just clear information so you can make the right choice.

Once you approve the estimate, we handle permits and call Dig Safe to mark utilities. We schedule installation based on weather and your timeline. Most residential fence projects take 1-3 days depending on size and complexity.

During installation, we protect your landscaping, keep the work area clean, and communicate any issues immediately. When finished, we walk the entire fence line with you, clean up completely, and make sure you’re satisfied with every detail. You get a fence that’s installed right and a property that looks better than when we started.

How long does fence installation typically take in Middlebury?

Most residential fence installations take 1-3 days depending on the project size and complexity. A typical backyard privacy fence usually takes 2 days – one day for post installation and concrete setting, another day for rails and pickets. Larger properties or complex layouts may take longer. Weather can affect timing, especially during Connecticut winters when ground conditions make digging difficult. We always provide realistic timelines upfront and communicate immediately if anything changes during the project.
Vinyl and aluminum handle Connecticut weather best with minimal maintenance required. Wood fencing looks great but needs regular staining or sealing to prevent weather damage. Cedar naturally resists rot better than pressure-treated pine. Chain link is extremely durable but offers no privacy. The key is proper installation – posts must be set deep enough to prevent frost heaving, and all materials need adequate drainage. We’ll recommend the best material based on your specific needs, budget, and how much maintenance you want to handle.
Most fence installations in Middlebury require permits, especially for fences over 4 feet tall. Requirements vary based on fence height, location, and proximity to property lines. We handle all permit applications as part of our service, including submitting plans and coordinating inspections. We also verify property lines and ensure compliance with local zoning requirements and any HOA restrictions. This prevents costly mistakes and ensures your fence meets all local regulations from the start.
Fence installation costs vary significantly based on material choice, property conditions, and project complexity. Wood privacy fencing typically ranges from $25-40 per linear foot installed, vinyl runs $30-50 per foot, and aluminum decorative fencing starts around $35 per foot. These prices include materials, labor, permits, and cleanup. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs upfront – no surprises or hidden fees. Factors affecting price include soil conditions, slope, access challenges, and gate requirements.
We call Dig Safe before every project to mark all underground utilities. This free service identifies gas, electric, water, and communication lines so we can avoid them during installation. If we encounter unmarked utilities, we stop work immediately and contact the appropriate utility company. Our insurance covers any accidental utility damage, but proper planning prevents these issues. We also hand-dig around any marked utilities to ensure safe installation. This careful approach protects your property and prevents dangerous situations.
Yes, we regularly install fencing on sloped and challenging terrain throughout Middlebury’s varied landscape. Slopes require either stepped installation (where fence sections follow the ground level) or racked installation (where the fence follows the slope angle). The best approach depends on the slope severity and your aesthetic preferences. Steep slopes may require additional grading or retaining work. We evaluate ground conditions during the initial consultation and explain your options with associated costs upfront.
