As most homeowners know, different home improvement projects are better-suited to different times of the year. Painting your siding? Wait until summer when the heat will help each coat dry more quickly. Planting a garden? Early spring is your best bet to ensure beautiful blossoms. Installing a fence? The answer to this is a bit tricky. Many people will tell you that warm months are the right time to tackle this particular project, while others will say that it is best to do it in the snowy off-season. But actually, autumn is the perfect time for fence installation. Read on to find out more!
Why Should I Have My Fence Installed in Autumn?
Autumn weather in D.C. provides professional fence installers with just the right conditions to make your fence installation project a success. Generally summer storms have stopped, so the soil around your home is dried out and no longer muddy. Muddy soil does not provide a very sturdy base for your fence posts, whereas drier soil does. The ground is not yet frozen, and so digging to set the posts within the ground is not as difficult, meaning the labor involved is simpler and goes more quickly. You will also have the advantage, if you opt to complete your fence installation project in autumn, of being one of the few who do so; homeowners still tend to have these projects done while it is warm out, which means there will be much more availability from your professional installers at this time of year.
