Hey there, homeowners! Planning to fence in that dream backyard of yours? We’ve got your back. At Heron Building Co, we believe that a quality fence starts with a detailed estimate. Here’s your insider’s guide to what your fence quote should lay out for you:

1. A Clear Sketch

First things first, get a visual. Your quote needs to come with a clear sketch of your future fence. It doesn’t have to be fancy, but it should be a straightforward plan so you know exactly what you’re getting. 

2. The Installation Process

There shouldn’t be any mystery behind your fence installation. Your quote should spill the beans on details such as how posts are being set and if concrete is being used so you can ensure your fence is sturdy and reliable.

3. Material Details

Don’t be in the dark about what’s going into your fence. Your proposal should answer questions like: What type of lumber is being used? What is the style of the pickets? Cuts and finishes? Everything should be laid out in plain language so you know exactly what’s going into your dream fence.

4. Detailed Measurements

Size matters, especially when it comes to your fence. A quality proposal has the lowdown on picket measurements, post sizes, and the overall fence dimensions and leaves no room for guessing—it’s all there in black and white.

5. Warranty Information

Peace of mind is crucial. Your fence quote should include a workmanship warranty, and we’re not talking complicated legal jargon. A builder that stands by their craft will always give you a straightforward promise that their workmanship is backed up.

6. Maintenance Guidelines

Now that you’ve got that stunning fence, let’s make sure it stays that way. Your quote should provide practical maintenance tips to keep your fence in tip-top shape—covering everything from cleaning and staining to ensuring it stands the test of time.
