Seriously, how many of us have at one point said (or even just thought), “I’ll get back to this in the Spring?” It gets cold and we don’t really feel like busting our frost-bitten fingers on outdoor projects. But think of how much better that hot cocoa tastes when you’ve earned it. And here are a few reason why Winter is actually the best time to address your fence projects.
1. Getting a fence installation or parts estimate. Guess what? Those fence crews who can’t seem to get a moment to breathe during the warmer months are actually looking for work in the cold season, and as opposed to charging full price (or even more on a rush schedule) for a job, a fence company will be glad to take on an off-season project at rock-bottom rates.
2. Better prices on fence parts. Since demand in New Jersey, the Tri-State area and the rest of the USA drops for fence lumber, metal and labor in the winter time, those savings can be passed along to the customer. Remember; wood, aluminum and welded wire manufacturers and distributors want to keep inventory flowing.
3. Fewer schedule conflicts. During the Spring, Summer and Fall you’ll want the use of your yard and pool for meals, games and gatherings. Why not have work done when you are inside anyway with the windows closed – sheltered from the sound of saws, shovels and occasional expletives.
4. Less interference. Trees, weeds, shrubs and other foliage that can make a landscape harder to manage at high summer are at their most dormant in the Winter, leaving you and the installers with the clearest view of the fence and project requirements.
5. We need to keep our fence installation crews working. Keeping the best fence installers in the Tri-State area on our payroll isn’t as easy as you might think and we have to keep them working throughout the year or we’ll lose them to other fence contractors.
So contact us by email or give us a call now at 973-674-0600 and let our slow season be your opportunity for the best priced quality wood fence, aluminum fence, welded wire, dog run, chain link or vinyl fence available.
As always we welcome your comments, questions or suggestions (no expletives, please).
