What to Expect During Your Fence Installation: Step-by-Step Guide

No Surprises. Just Solid Fencing.

At Midwest Fence, we believe a smooth project starts with clear expectations. Whether it’s your first fence or your fifth, knowing the process helps reduce stress and build trust.

Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect when working with us:

Step 1: Free Consultation & Estimate

We’ll visit your property, walk the space with you, discuss your goals, and provide a detailed quote with no pressure.

Step 2: Design & Planning

Once you’re ready to move forward, we’ll:✅ Confirm layout & footage✅ Review gate placement✅ Help with style & material selection✅ Discuss local zoning & permitting (we help pull permits if needed)

Step 3: Marking & Utility Locates

Before we dig, we call OUPS (Ohio Utilities Protection Service) to mark any underground utilities. Safety first—always.

Step 4: Installation Day(s)

Our trained crew will:🛠️ Set posts in concrete🪚 Install panels or custom-build on site🔩 Install gates and hardware🧹 Clean up the job site

Depending on size and scope, this takes 1–3 days.

Step 5: Final Walkthrough & Warranty Info

Before we leave, we’ll walk the fence line with you, check every detail, and make sure you're 100% satisfied.

We’ll also provide warranty info and care instructions—especially important for wood or vinyl fences.
