The first step in building a fence is laying out your line.
We recommend that you run your string along the fence line at least 8-12 inches inside your property line. By the time the fence is complete you will still have 4-8 inches remaining.  Stake out the corners and string the fence line with string or crochet thread. This will also let you see if there are any obstructions in the way.

Let the neighbors know if you would like to connect to their fence.
Most of the time neighbors do not mind the addition of a fence connecting to theirs, but it is always better to be courteous and let them know what you are planning to do to avoid any problems. We had one neighbor come home and our customer ended up having to build a whole other side to his fence because the neighbor refused to let him connect to theirs.

Locating Utilities - We ALWAYS have this done prior to starting a fence. It is ILLEGAL to dig without contacting your local agency.
Find out where any underground power lines, gas, cable or other lines are located and proceed accordingly. This avoids the instance where one of these resources gets damaged by post hole diggers or augers. It could cost you money to fix, or cost you your life!

Check for any Covenants and Ordinances
Many covenants or ordinances determine fence height rules and even materials. Find out what rules if any your property falls under before selecting your fence. Many places limit the height of fences to 6 feet, and if you want anything higher than 6 feet, you would likely need a variance from the city or county.
