Fencing FAQ's
In Georgia, a fence company does not typically require a specific state-issued license unless the fencing involves electrical components or complex construction, in which case a General Contractor's License might be necessary. However, the company should carry general liability insurance to cover any property damage during installation and worker's compensation insurance if they have employees. These insurances and certifications ensure professionalism and quality workmanship.
Homeowners should ask about the types of materials the company offers, such as wood, vinyl, metal, or composite. The company should be able to explain the pros and cons of each material based on the homeowner’s needs, including factors like durability, maintenance, cost, and appearance.
It’s important for homeowners to request a detailed written estimate that outlines the cost of materials, labor, permits, and any additional fees. The estimate should also include a clear timeline for the project, ensuring the homeowner knows when the work will start and when it will be completed.
Homeowners should ask to see examples of the company’s previous fencing installations or request references from past clients. This allows homeowners to assess the quality of the company’s work and check whether previous customers were satisfied with the results.
Homeowners should inquire about any warranties or guarantees the company provides for both the fencing materials and the installation. A reputable fencing company should stand behind its work and offer warranties that cover potential defects or issues that arise after the installation is completed.
