Fencing in Cherokee County

Fence Company in Holly Springs, GA

Almost every fence job in Holly Springs is a first fence, on a yard that has never had one.

7,312 homes, nearly all of them recent

Almost nothing in Holly Springs has an old fence to take down. Half of the 7,312 homes here were finished in 2009 or later, and that removes a whole category of cost while adding a different one: on a new subdivision lot the grading was finished for the builder instead of for you, and the line you want to fence may run across ground that was recently moved.

The clean sheet, and what to do with it

A first fence is the only time the choice is genuinely unconstrained. Nothing has to match, nothing has to tie in, and the whole run can be one thing. That's the moment to compare wood privacy against vinyl and aluminum on the terms that actually matter to you, which are usually how much maintenance you'll realistically do and how long you plan to be there.

Settling ground and what it does to a new fence

Fill placed during construction keeps compacting for years afterward. A post set into recently placed fill can be perfect on the day and out of plumb two winters later, through nobody's fault. On a new-build lot it's worth knowing which parts of the yard are cut and which are fill before the holes are dug, because the answer changes how deep they go.

The yard is brand new. Is it too soon to fence it?

No, but it's worth knowing where the fill is. Posts in freshly placed fill need to go deeper than posts in undisturbed ground, and that's decided before anything is dug.
