Vinyl fencing gives you the look of painted wood without the maintenance. It won’t rot, warp, or need repainting, which matters when you’re dealing with Long Island humidity and salt air.
Wood fencing offers natural beauty and customization options. We use pressure-treated lumber that’s designed for our climate, and we install it properly so it lasts longer than typical wood fence installations.
Aluminum fencing provides security and durability with minimal maintenance. It’s particularly effective for pool areas where Nassau County safety requirements are strict. Chain link offers practical security at a reasonable cost, especially for larger properties or areas where appearance isn’t the primary concern.
Vinyl and aluminum perform best in our coastal climate because they don’t absorb moisture or corrode from salt air. Vinyl won’t crack, warp, or fade like cheaper alternatives, and aluminum won’t rust like steel fencing.
If you prefer wood, pressure-treated cedar or composite materials handle humidity better than standard lumber. We recommend avoiding untreated pine or fir, which deteriorate quickly in Long Island’s wet conditions.
The key is proper installation with adequate drainage and appropriate hardware. Even the best materials fail if they’re not installed correctly for local soil and weather conditions.
Most residential fence projects take 2-4 days depending on the size and complexity. A typical backyard privacy fence for a quarter-acre lot usually takes 2-3 days from start to finish.
Weather can affect the timeline, especially if we’re digging post holes during heavy rain or frozen ground conditions. We’ll give you a realistic schedule upfront and keep you updated if conditions change.
Permit approval adds time to the overall project timeline. Nassau County typically processes fence permits within 5-10 business days, which we factor into your project schedule from the beginning.
Yes, Nassau County requires permits for most fence installations, especially if your fence is over 4 feet tall or located near property lines. The permit ensures your fence meets setback requirements and doesn’t interfere with utilities.
We handle the permit application process for you, including submitting property surveys and installation plans. This saves you time dealing with county offices and ensures everything is done correctly.
Some HOA communities have additional requirements beyond county permits. We check both county and HOA regulations before starting any project to avoid compliance issues later.
We handle everything from initial measurement to final cleanup. This includes marking utilities, obtaining permits, setting posts in concrete, installing panels or boards, adding gates if needed, and disposing of any debris.
You also get a detailed estimate upfront with no hidden costs. We explain exactly what materials we’re using and why, so you understand what you’re paying for.
Post-installation, we provide warranty coverage on both materials and workmanship. If something isn’t right, we come back and fix it properly.
Costs vary based on material choice, fence height, and property conditions. Vinyl fencing typically runs $25-40 per linear foot installed. Wood fencing ranges from $20-35 per linear foot. Chain link is usually $15-25 per linear foot.
These prices include materials, labor, permits, and basic gate installation. Costs can increase if you have challenging soil conditions, need extensive utility marking, or want custom design features.
We provide detailed written estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no hidden fees, and no pressure to decide immediately.
Vinyl and aluminum fences need minimal maintenance – just occasional cleaning with soap and water. You might need to tighten hardware every few years, but that’s typically all that’s required.
Wood fences need more attention. Plan to clean and re-stain or seal every 2-3 years to prevent moisture damage. Check for loose boards or hardware annually, especially after storms.
Chain link fences are low-maintenance but check for bent sections or loose connections periodically. Any damage should be repaired quickly to prevent larger problems from developing.
