"I wish all businesses were as easy, pleasant, and honest to deal with as Excel. I wanted to expand an existing vinyl fence and add two gates. The Project Coordinator at Excel listened to what I wanted and made some suggestion, but did not try a hard sell for goods or services. He explained in detail what the work crew would do and how the fence would be installed. Out of all the companies I contacted Excel was the only one to provide a written estimate. The price was reasonable and comparable to what other companies were quoting. The workers who responded to install the fence and gates were great. It was obvious they worked together in the past and were comfortable with each other. The supervisor went over everything with me before they started the job. He explained in detail what they would be doing. After the job was done the supervisor walked around the entire project with me, while explaining again what they did and answered questions. They definitely made sure I was happy with everything before they left. Another thing worth mentioning is their office and administrative staff. I made a point to stop by their office one day before the project. I believe the way an office appears and is run tells a lot about a business. Excel has a nice, clean office with very friendly and professional staff. A live person answers their phone, instead of getting an automated message, prompting you to press a number. It was a great experience from beginning to end. I will definitely use Excel for future projects."

Installing a fence for a standard residential project takes two to four days. This timeline includes obtaining permits, preparing terrain, and coordinating labor and materials. A 150‑linear foot installation focuses on proper alignment and secure post placement. Factors such as your fence height, ground slope, and material type can add time to ensure a safe and durable structure.
Wood panels, steel, aluminum, and vinyl fences are some of the easiest to install, thanks to their pre-made sections and simple assembly. The process is fairly straightforward, with clear instructions and minimal customization, especially on flat, prepared ground. Choosing one of these options can make setting up a fence quick and hassle-free.
A fence’s lifespan depends on its material. Vinyl fences typically last 20 to 30 years, while aluminum can endure up to 50 years. Wood fences last about five to 10 years with proper care, and wrought iron can remain strong for generations with regular upkeep. Chain-link and barbed wire fences tend to corrode faster, reducing their durability. No matter the material, routing maintenance helps extend a fence’s lifespan.
You’re not legally required to notify your neighbors before building a fence, but it’s a good idea to do so. Clear communication helps maintain good relationships and can help prevent disputes down the line. To avoid any issues, verify your property boundaries with an official survey and ensure the fence stays within your property lines.
The ideal fence height depends on its purpose. Standard privacy fences are six to eight feet tall to block views and add security, while decorative front yard fences are around three feet. Livestock fences range from three to six feet, depending on the animals they enclose. Always check local building codes to ensure compliance.
