Behind the Scenes: A Day in the Life of Our Fence Installation Crew

Fence Installation in Burlington NJ Blog 09

Meet the Team That Builds Your Fence

At Fencing & Beyond, our install crew isn’t just a group of guys with tools. They’re craftsmen, planners, and problem-solvers. Every job is handled with professionalism, attention to detail, and respect for your home.

Whether we’re installing a vinyl privacy fence in Mount Laurel, a pool code aluminum fence in Bordentown, or a cedar shadowbox in Moorestown, our process is built on experience, efficiency, and clean execution.

The Process Starts Long Before Installation Day

What most homeowners don’t see is how much planning goes into your fence before we even arrive.

Here’s what happens in the 1–2 weeks leading up to your installation:

Permit Filing: We submit your permit application to the township with your survey and specs.

  • Utility Mark-Outs: We contact NJ One Call (811) to have underground lines marked for safety.
  • Material Ordering & Delivery: Your materials are custom ordered and delivered before installation day.
  • Pre-Site Planning: We review your layout, gate placements, ground slope, and double-check all materials.

By installation day, everything is ready, no surprises, no wasted time.

The Morning: Prep, Load, and Roll Out

Our crew starts the day early typically around 6:30–7:00 AM at our Burlington yard.

Since your fence materials are already delivered to your property, the only thing we load is concrete: one 80-lb bag per post, ensuring a rock-solid foundation.

Before leaving the yard, our team lead reviews:

  • The jobsite address and layout
  • Permit status and utility mark-out clearance
  • Any custom requests, gate directions, or special instructions

By the time we pull up to your house, we’re ready to start.

Midday: Digging, Setting Posts, and Precision

Once on site, we walk the fence line with you to confirm layout, fence height, and gate swing.

Then, we get to work:

  • Remove old fencing (if needed)

Dig uniform post holes with augers

  • Set posts in 80-lb bags of concrete
  • Check level, spacing, and slope
  • Prep gate openings for reinforcement

Everything is measured, aligned, and locked in for strength and consistency.

Afternoon: Panel Installation and Clean Finish

We begin attaching panels or rolling out chain link depending on the fence type.

Here’s what we focus on:

  • Installing panels or rails with clean, straight lines
  • Hanging gates to swing freely and latch smoothly
  • Ensuring all post tops are level and consistent
  • Adjusting for slope or elevation changes

This is where the structure comes together and your new fence takes shape.

End of Day: Cleanup and Final Walkthrough

Before we leave, we make sure the site is spotless and the job is done right.

Our finish checklist includes:

  • Removing all debris and packaging
  • Raking and leveling soil around posts
  • Testing every gate and latch

Walking the project with you for final sign-off

We aim to leave your yard cleaner than we found it with a fence that’s built to last.
