How Long Does Installation Take?
If you’re planning to install a new fence in Lexington, one of the first questions you’ll have is, “How long will the project take?” The answer depends on several factors, including the type of fence, the size of your yard, and site conditions.
Typical Fence Installation Timelines
- Wood Fencing: 2–4 days on average
- Vinyl Fencing: 2–3 days
- Chain Link Fencing: 1–2 days
- Metal or Ornamental Fencing: 3–5 days
These timelines assume normal yard conditions and average-sized projects. Large properties or custom designs may take longer.
Factors That Affect Installation Time
- Yard Size: Bigger yards mean more linear feet to cover.
- Terrain: Slopes, rocky soil, or tree roots can add time.
- Weather: Rain, storms, or freezing ground may cause delays.
- Custom Features: Gates, decorative tops, or mixed materials can extend the schedule.
