Delaware Chain Link Fence Warranty Information

Yes! We are a leading chain link fencing contractor across the entire Delaware area.

Our crews are experienced and specially trained in the latest techniques for installing chain link fences, ensuring your fence is installed properly, will look great, function properly, and will hold up to the harsh weather typical of Delaware.

Chain link fencing is a popular option for homes and businesses in the Delaware region. Chain link fences are strong yet lightweight. Together with their galvanized coating, chain link fences easily stand up to the harsh weather conditions of the Delaware area while also resisting rust and corrosion.

If a durable, reliable fence is what you want, look no further than chain link fencing.

Chain link fences are very durable! Chain link fencing is more than strong enough and durable enough to protect your home or business while standing strong in the face of Delaware weather. Typical physical abuse from falling limbs, landscapers, kids, animals, neighbors, and more are usually no problem for our professional-quality chain link fencing.

If you choose a colored PVC-coating, which also beautifies the fence, the added corrosion protection will extend the life of your chain link fence for many additional years!

Prices on chain link fences are highly dependent on the amount of fencing you need as well as the exact style, height, and options you select.

We provide chain link fencing quotes for free! Simply reach out to our team through our online form or call us and our team of friendly, experienced staff will be glad to walk you through the process and plan a consultation.

Important!

We encourage you to speak with one of our fence experts before focusing solely on price! There are cheaper, very poor quality chain link brands available that are not nearly as durable, don't have the same quality corrosion protection, and have limited (if any) warranties. We don't use them.

There are also very inexperienced and unprofessional fence installers who continually cut corners and don't stand behind their work, regardless of what their so-called warranty says.

Chain link fences must stand up to the physical demands of Delaware weather, and physical abuse from falling branches, landscapers, neighbors, animals, and more.

Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to make a decision about the fence you want to protect and beautify your property.

Chain link fences require very little maintenance. Our professional quality chain link fencing has been factory-treated to prevent rust and corrosion and can be further enhanced with protective colored vinyl coating.

We recommend clearing debris away from the bottom of the fence and maybe a quick squirt of the hose every once in a while. Chain link fencing requires almost no attention or maintenance.

PVC-coated chain link fencing (sometimes called vinyl-coated chain link fencing) is that beautiful colored coating that can be added to chain link fencing. More than a simple color choice, vinyl coating your chain link fence greatly increases the rust and corrosion resistance of the fence and will greatly extend the life of your fence.

Colored vinyl coatings added to chain link fences are very popular in the Delaware area. They are particularly popular for athletic fields, pool areas, and anywhere else where children are commonly found, due to the smooth texture. These PVC-coatings are applied at the factory for maximum quality and protection.

It's fairly easy to secure your chain link fence from being able to be pushed out for a pet to escape. A tension wire can be added to the bottom of the chain link to keep it from being pushed out by children or animals. If a tension wire is not enough, a bottom rail could also be installed for an even stronger barrier.

Yes, they do!

We offer our comprehensive 3-year workmanship warranty for every fence we install. We take pride in our work and our craftsmanship! We earn our outstanding reputation in the Delaware area - one happy customer at a time.

In addition, your fence may come with a manufacturer warranty based on the specifications of your individual project. Your contract will explain all details for your installation, warranties, and what you can expect as you work with our professional fence team!

The best way to get an accurate estimate for your fence installation date is to call our team of friendly fence consultants!

Once you approve the estimate, we can often install chain link fences in most of the Delaware area within 3 to 6 weeks, but please check with our office for your specific project. There are times throughout the year where that timeframe may be less or more.

Additionally, there are other things that can delay the start of a fencing project. If you select a specific chain link fence style, color, or options that need to be special ordered, that will often delay the installation of your fence. We will help you to identify, in advance, any of your choices that are known to be likely to cause these additional delays, and we will offer alternatives whenever possible.

Chain link fencing is unique in its ability to be utilized for such a wide array of applications. Listed below are some of the most popular applications of chain link fencing:

  • Chain Link Fencing for Athletic Areas
    Athletic areas and children's parks almost exclusively use chain link fencing.
  • Chain Link Fencing for Pool Areas
    Chain link fencing is very popular for protecting residential and commercial pool areas across Delaware. Adding the non-corrosive vinyl coating makes chain link fencing a great option for pool fencing in the Delaware region.
  • Chain Link Security Fencing
    Chain link fencing is the most popular type of security fencing in Delaware, due to a large number of security add-ons available for the top of the fence, and the height that a chain link fence can be designed and built. If securing your property is your primary objective, chain link fencing may be your perfect solution.

Every local municipality in Delaware has a separate set of requirements when it comes to building permits, and that includes chain link fencing. Sometimes the specific height of the fence, placement of the fence, or purpose of the fence can impact the need for a permit. There are also HOA considerations in some areas.

When you decide to work with Backyard Works, we will handle all of the permitting necessary for your fence project! We have installed many chain fences in just about every possible area across Delaware, so we are happy to answer these sorts of questions.

At Backyard Works, we pride ourselves on high quality fence installations and workmanship. Therefore, we install fences for a majority of the year aside from a short break during certain periods of winter weather because of the challenges we face when attempting to install fences during these particularly cold conditions.

There are certain times during the year when our installation schedule is busier, but our fence team always does its best to get you the fence you need right when you need it. Reach out today to find out what our current schedule looks like! We always have room for one more fence!

Fence placement is ultimately the responsibility of you, the customer. Moving a fence after it's already been installed can be costly. It's never a bad idea to get a survey to be safe. However, in many cases, we are more than happy to install your fence without an official survey, especially if the property lines are clear and well-marked. While a survey is not required, it can greatly reduce the chance of dealing with the headache of moving your newly installed fence.

There are many small fence companies in the Delaware area that install chain link fencing. Very few of them specifically train their teams on the best installation techniques and practices for installing chain link fencing. Unfortunately, this means that your chain link is almost certainly not installed as securely as it could be, which, ultimately, can reduce the quality and lifespan of your fence.

Inferior installation techniques and using improper tools can also damage the chain link during installation which may have the unfortunate impact of voiding the manufacturer's warranty, because you chose an unqualified contractor not approved by the manufacturer.

Also be sure to choose a reliable fence company that has been around. Here are some of the most common pitfalls of using an unreliable, unlicensed, or uninsured chain link fencing contractor:

  1. The Chain Link Fence Warranty is Void
    If the company that installed your chain link isn't still in business down the road, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly, which is fairly common.

  2. The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long
    As a professional fencing contractor, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. We are dedicated to improving our knowledge and skills of the best fencing materials and the best fence installation techniques for chain link fencing in order to maximize the strength and life of your fence. Companies that simply install fences as something they do "on the side" usually have no idea how much they actually don't know about chain link fencing or what is best for you and your property.

  3. Putting Your Property at Risk
    Installing chain link fences in the Delaware area is actually somewhat risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the installation of a fence can blow materials, damaging your business or customer's cars. We've seen concrete splatter up onto cars or drip down long stretches of walkways and driveways as wet concrete or other materials are transported. The secondary damage to businesses or your customer's vehicles while installing fences by poorly trained labor is a very common thing.

    Additionally, anyone hurt on your property while they are working puts you at risk! If you hire an unqualified fencing contractor - you may be liable.

At first glance, hiring a "cheaper" fence company to install your chain link may appear to save you a few dollars, but in the long run it is almost certainly a price that you simply cannot afford to pay!
