When you call us, you’re working with contractors who’ve built our reputation on quality work and fair pricing, not fast sales tactics or corner-cutting.
First, we visit your property to measure and discuss your needs. We’ll walk the fence line, check for utilities, and explain your material options without any pressure.
Once you approve the estimate, we handle the permit paperwork and schedule your installation. Before we dig, we coordinate with utility marking services to avoid any underground surprises that could delay your project.
Installation typically takes 1-3 days depending on your fence length and material choice. Our crew arrives on time, works efficiently, and cleans up completely when finished. You’ll get a walkthrough of your new fence and care instructions before we consider the job complete.

Vinyl fencing offers the lowest maintenance option for Patchogue homeowners. It won’t rot, warp, or need painting, and it stands up well to coastal humidity and salt air that can damage other materials over time.
Wood fencing gives you the classic look many homeowners prefer, especially cedar which naturally resists insects and weather. We use proper installation techniques to ensure wooden fences last longer in our climate.
Aluminum fencing provides security and visibility while requiring minimal upkeep. It’s particularly popular for pool areas and front yards where you want boundaries without blocking views. Chain link remains the most cost-effective option for larger properties where security matters more than privacy.
Most residential fence installations in Patchogue take 1-3 days depending on the fence length, material type, and site conditions. A typical backyard privacy fence for an average-sized property usually gets completed in one full day.
Factors that might extend the timeline include permit processing time, utility marking delays, or challenging terrain like slopes or rocky soil. We always coordinate utility marking before starting, which can add a few days to the overall project timeline.
Weather can also affect scheduling, especially for concrete work. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you informed if anything changes during the process.
Permit requirements in Patchogue vary based on fence height, location, and type. Generally, privacy fences 6 feet or shorter in backyards don’t require permits, but anything over 3.5 feet in front yards typically does.
The Town of Brookhaven, which includes Patchogue, has specific setback requirements and height restrictions. Pool fences have additional safety code requirements that must be met regardless of height.
We handle all permit paperwork as part of our service because we know the local requirements and can navigate the process efficiently. This saves you time and ensures everything meets code from the start.
Vinyl and aluminum fences perform best in Patchogue’s coastal environment because they resist salt air corrosion and humidity damage that can affect other materials. Vinyl won’t rot, warp, or fade, while aluminum won’t rust like traditional steel fencing.
If you prefer wood fencing, cedar is your best choice because it naturally resists moisture and insects. Proper sealing and maintenance extend wood fence life significantly in coastal areas.
Chain link with vinyl coating also works well for larger properties, offering durability and low maintenance. We avoid untreated steel materials in coastal areas because salt air accelerates corrosion and reduces fence lifespan.
We require utility marking before any digging begins, which includes marking sprinkler lines where possible. However, many older sprinkler systems aren’t detectable through standard utility marking services.
Before installation, we walk your property with you to identify sprinkler heads, valve boxes, and likely pipe routes. We dig carefully in these areas and use hand tools rather than machinery when necessary to minimize risk.
If we do encounter unmarked sprinkler lines, we stop work immediately and coordinate repairs with qualified irrigation contractors. We maintain relationships with local sprinkler repair companies to handle any issues quickly and get your project back on track.
We provide a comprehensive warranty covering both materials and labor because we stand behind our work. Material warranties vary by manufacturer – vinyl typically comes with 20-30 year warranties, while aluminum carries 15-20 year coverage.
Our labor warranty covers installation defects like loose posts, improper gate alignment, or structural issues that develop due to installation problems. We’ll return to fix any installation-related problems at no charge during the warranty period.
The warranty doesn’t cover damage from severe weather events, vehicle impacts, or normal wear from use. We provide detailed warranty information in writing so you know exactly what’s covered and for how long.
Yes, we regularly install fences on Patchogue’s varied terrain, including sloped yards and uneven ground. The installation method depends on your slope severity and material choice.
For moderate slopes, we can step the fence panels to follow the ground contour while keeping each panel level. Steeper slopes might require racking panels (angling them to follow the slope) or extensive grading work.
We evaluate your specific terrain during the initial consultation and explain your options. Some materials work better than others on slopes – for example, aluminum fencing racks more easily than vinyl panels. We’ll recommend the best approach for your property and budget.
