With the chill season approaching fast, homeowners looking to get a fence installed are probably wondering if they can do it in winter. Welp, we’re here to tell you that, yes, indeedy do; you most certainly can install a fence during winter or any time of the year, really. It’s just that you need to be able to withstand the weather you plan on setting up your fence in. Besides that, installing a fence in winter might be even smarter than you realize, since there are a bunch of benefits you’ll get. So, let’s jump right into those, shall we?
Why Is Winter The Best Time To Install A Fence?
Like we said above, you will get a ton of unexpected benefits if you choose winter as the time for installing your fence. Here are a few of them:
Open Slots From Professional Fence Contractors
Yep, since the common misconception and collective thinking is that winters might not be suitable for fence installation, you’ll have a big chance to skip the line from professional fencing contractors like ourselves, Big Jerry’s Fencing. It’s always best to go with a professional rather than winging it DIY style. We at Big Jerry’s Fencing bring an unprecedented attention to detail, the finishing, polish, and high quality materials in our fences make them top-of-the-line, plus the reasonable rates at which we bring our services to you are worth the price.
More Time For Fence Acclimation
Another huge perk of installing a fence in winter is that the harsh weather and extremely cold temperature will immediately allow your newly installed fence to better get used to these conditions. The material used in the fence will gain time to adjust to the challenge, thus extending its lifespan without needing to inspect it for upkeep and maintenance, so you’ll be able to rest easily.
More Reliable Protection
One of the huge reasons we’re pushing homeowners to try winter fence installation is because the cold actually prevents rapid expansion, contraction and warping of the fence, especially if it’s a wooden one. These frequent changes to the fence during summer when there is moisture present greatly impact the sturdiness and compromise the structural integrity in the long term. So, during winter, when your fence doesn’t face moisture, wetness of soil, this essentially makes the fence stronger and durable for your protection.
