There are many small fence companies in Central and Southern Indiana 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 ... and what is best for you and your property.

3. Putting Your Property at Risk
   Installing chain link fences in the Central and Southern Indiana 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 customers' 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!
