Vinyl fences in Bergen County have become a very popular fencing option. Vinyl fencing offers added privacy, if desired, as well as a durable fencing material that requires little upkeep. When you decide a vinyl fence is in your future, here is what you can expect from your fence installation. 
Step 1: Plan the Fence Layout
After you have made the decision to install new fencing, your fencing contractors will help determine an appropriate layout for your property. You and the contractors will account for any landscaping or buildings that might conflict with the layout. This first step will also include determining how slopes and other complications will be handled.
Step 2: Make Important Calls
Once a layout has been mapped, you should call your utility companies. These companies can send out any personnel required to turn off necessary utilities. This is also a good time to inform your neighbors of the upcoming construction. This is a courtesy, but it can also be helpful if a mistake in property lines was made during the layout step.
Step 3: Tie a String
Fence installation can officially start once a string has been tied and laid out along the perimeter of the proposed fence layout. Most likely, the fencing contractors will dig and install the corner posts so the string can attach to something. Once the string is taut, the contractors will measure the exact spacing between each post. This will help keep spacing equal and consistent throughout the fence installation.
Step 4: Dig the Postholes
The depth of the postholes will be determined by the soil, local regulations, and the length of the posts. Often, the hole will contain about 1/3 of the post to ensure it will be secure in the ground. The contractors will use gravel and concrete to securely set the post.
Step 5: Attach the Fence Panels
After all of the posts have been installed and the concrete has dried, the contractors will attach the vinyl fence panels. This step typically requires a little extra hardware to secure the panels to the posts.
