Fence Installation in Hamilton

In the older part of town a picket fence, wood or aluminum, generally fits the street far better than a solid privacy panel does. Four foot spaced picket reads as belonging on a street of older houses, keeps a dog contained, and costs less per foot than six foot privacy. Where privacy genuinely is the goal, running solid panel on the back and side lines only, and keeping the street-facing line open, gets both results.

Harris County is where the Columbus metro's building lot supply has expanded, and newer construction on former farmland brings the usual mix of covenant requirements and freshly graded yards that have not finished settling. On a new-construction lot it is worth waiting for the grade to stabilize where that is practical, and it is always worth knowing where the builder put the utilities before anyone digs.

Every project on either side of that divide starts the same way, with a locate request to Georgia 811 before a shovel goes in the ground. Georgia 811 names installing a fence as exactly the kind of project it encourages people to call about, the locate costs nothing, and a marked yard is the difference between a routine install day and an expensive one. The contractor normally places the request as a matter of course.
