When planning a new fence installation or repair project, one common question that arises is: Can you help with neighbor approvals? At Fantastic Fence, we understand the challenges that can come with coordinating with neighbors, and we’re here to assist in any way we can to make the process smoother for everyone involved.
What Are Neighbor Approvals, and Why Are They Important?
Neighbor approvals are typically required when a fence will be shared with a neighbor or a new fence is being installed along a property line. In many cases, these approvals are necessary to ensure mutual agreement on the project details, costs, and timeline. Having clear communication and consent from both parties can prevent misunderstandings and disputes down the road.
How We Can Help
While the responsibility of securing neighbor approvals ultimately falls to the client, we offer a few helpful options to streamline this process:
- Direct Neighbor Communication (With Client’s Permission): If you’re unable to reach your neighbor or would prefer not to handle the discussion yourself, we can step in. Once you provide us with your neighbor’s contact information, we’ll give them a call on your behalf. Our team will:
- Explain the scope of the project.
- Answer any questions they might have.
- Provide them with an approval form to review and sign.
This approach helps ensure your neighbor is fully informed and has the opportunity to address any concerns directly with us.
- On-Site Visits: In situations where repeated attempts to contact your neighbor have been unsuccessful, we can send one of our estimators to knock on their door. If the neighbor isn’t home, the estimator will leave a note with information about the project and our contact details. While we can’t guarantee this will result in a response, it’s often a proactive way to encourage communication.
Limitations to Consider
While we’re happy to assist, it’s important to note:
- We do not initiate contact with neighbors unless the client provides us with their information and requests our help.
- We cannot guarantee that neighbors will respond or provide their approval, but we’ll do our best to facilitate communication.
- Ultimately, resolving disputes or securing final agreements may require additional steps that go beyond our role.
Tips for a Successful Neighbor Fence Approval Process
- Start Early: Reach out to your neighbors as soon as you begin planning your fence project. Early communication often leads to smoother approvals.
- Share Detailed Information: Provide your neighbor with clear details about the project’s design, timeline, and costs (if shared).
- Use Our Team for Support: If you’re feeling stuck or unsure how to proceed, let us know. We’re here to assist in any way we can to help move the project forward.
