FAQs
How does Select Fence handle fence posts shifting due to frost heave in Rochester winters?
We set posts below the frost line (typically 48 inches) and use gravel backfill for drainage to reduce heaving. For added stability, we may install concrete footings or helical anchors depending on soil conditions. This approach minimizes post movement common in our freeze-thaw cycles.
What are the main differences between wooden, vinyl, and aluminum fences for a Rochester home?
Wood offers a classic look but requires regular staining or painting to withstand moisture and UV. Vinyl is low-maintenance and resistant to rot, but can become brittle in extreme cold. Aluminum is durable, rust-resistant, and provides a sleek, open feel—ideal for windy areas. We help you choose based on your budget and maintenance preferences.
What is the typical timeline for a custom fence installation in Rochester?
After a free estimate and design approval, installation usually takes 1–3 days for an average residential project, depending on size and complexity. We schedule around weather conditions to ensure proper post-setting and material acclimation. We also coordinate with utility marking services to avoid underground lines.
