In many cases, our customers have contracted Big Jerry’s Fencing to install their fence without us ever coming on-site. Rest assured that our highly-skilled professional installation team wants nothing more than to provide you with a finished product that you will love for years to come. To ensure that happens, on the day of your installation, our installers will meet with you to do a complete onsite walkthrough before getting started on your project. During this walkthrough, our installers will go over details with you regarding the desired location of each fence line, the ideal gate placement, and any other pertinent project specifics.
If you have questions regarding your walkthrough, such as your scheduled date and time of arrival, please reach out to your local Big Jerry’s Fencing representative for additional details.
811 is a national call-before-you-dig service that will request to have your utility lines located and marked by your local utility companies. 811 protects you and your community! Hitting a buried line while digging can disrupt utility service, cost money to repair, or cause serious injury or death.
It is important to note that the 811 ticket only covers your public utilities. It is the responsibility of the homeowner to locate and mark private utility lines such as irrigation and septic. Please refer to our contract for a list of some of the most common private utilities to be aware of.
All lines marked by a locating service (public lines) have a grace area of 2 feet to each side of the marking. That means the line could be within a 4-foot-wide path. Big Jerry’s Fencing will attempt to span that area when setting our posts. If spanning that area is not possible or practical, Big Jerry’s Fencing will make every effort to hand dig carefully. Please note that the location of any public or private utility line may dictate the placement of a gate or a post.
Finally, please be aware that Big Jerry’s Fencing is not liable for any potential costs associated with the repair of any damaged utility lines. If you have questions regarding your property's utilities, don’t hesitate to contact your local Big Jerry’s Fencing representative.
