What to Expect When You Request a Free Estimate from Long Fence
A new fence can transform the look of your home and provide additional security and peace of mind. But how much is it going to cost? At Long Fences, we believe in providing transparency to build trust with our customers. It starts with a free estimate for your new fence. You might wonder what the process of providing an estimate includes. Here’s a look at four clear steps.
Step 1: The Initial Contact – Fast and Professional
It all starts by submitting a request for your free estimate. You can fill out a form and submit online or call Long Fence to schedule the estimate. Once your request is in our system, we want to reach out to you as quickly as possible. Our team works with you to schedule a date and time that works with your other commitments. It’s our goal to schedule your free estimate within 24 hours of you submitting your request. Our scheduler strives to set you up with the right specialist for your estimate. They’ll ask some brief questions to ensure the team we send to your home is able to meet your needs.
Step 2: The On-Site Consultation – Expert Advice at Your Door
It’s time to meet your project specialist when they visit your home and share your vision of a new fence. This specialist is a consultant and not just a salesperson. They want to meet your needs and help you stay within your budget. During this visit, your consultant takes precise measurements. As the homeowner you are responsible for indicating where the fence is to be located. If there is any doubt as to the location, it is recommended that you get a property line stake out from a certified surveyor. This will save money in the long run should the fence need to be moved. However, an estimate can certainly be provided based on a general idea of the location so you have budget numbers to work with. Modifications can be addressed one the actual property line is established.
Your specialist brings material samples, so you can see and touch your available options. These include vinyl, wood, and metal options to see what fits your aesthetic. You will discuss the needed height, local HOA requirements, and specific functionality (privacy, pet containment, etc.). We’ve earned our reputation for professionalism during the consultation phase, consistently earning top marks from homeowners.
Step 3: The Detailed Proposal – Transparency You Can Trust
After the in-person visit, you’ll get a detailed proposal and not some vague numbers that don’t really provide you with an overall cost. This is a professional quote rather than a rough verbal guess. You get a breakdown of all the costs involved in installing your new fence. This includes the material costs, labor, and project specifications if you have unique requests. With a detailed proposal, you’ll have a better understanding of where your money is going, which helps you avoid any surprises during the process. We can answer any questions you have about the proposal and partner with you to explore your options.
Step 4: A No-Pressure Experience – Your Home, Your Choice
In the final step, you make your decision. Yes, to be honest, we want you to choose us, but we aren’t going to pressure you into a decision. The estimate we offer is 100 percent free, and it doesn’t commit you to using our services for your fence installation. We strive to provide you with the information and time you need to make an informed decision. We want you to make the right decision for your property and family. Our goal is to be your go-to resource for “how to get a fence quote” that is honest and accurate.
