Our Aluminum Fence Process
NO-DIG FENCES
At Guardian Fence, we’re committed to providing you with a modern and more effective approach to setting fence posts with our no-dig method whenever possible. This means that your yard is left in the same condition it was before construction, with no piles of dirt, virtually no mess, and a much stronger fence!
Faster Installation
Driving posts is the fastest way to install a Virginia residential or commercial fence. No-dig fences are constructed without digging holes which makes the process much more efficient, saving hours of additional labor. Additionally, fence panels, rails, and pickets can be installed immediately after the posts are installed without waiting for the concrete to set.
Minimal Mess
Another major advantage of our no-dig approach is that our fence crews can keep your property in the best possible condition and avoid creating large piles of dirt that need to be removed or spread throughout your yard. We save you the hassle of dealing with all the extra soil, allowing you to enjoy a fence that looks like it’s always been there from day one!
Superior Quality & Strength
A fence post is one of the most important parts of an aluminum fence to give it strength and ensure longevity. We use I-Posts that are double the thickness and have a stronger profile than traditional aluminum posts. With the increased depth of the I-Post driven into the soil over a traditional dig and set, your fence has increased leverage against impact, wind load, and frost heave.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you install wood fences in Virginia?
Yes! We are a leading custom wood fencing contractor across the entire Virginia area.
Our crews are experienced and specially trained in the latest techniques for building wood fences – ensuring your fence is installed properly, will look great, function properly, and will hold up to the harsh weather typical of Virginia.
Are wood fences expensive?
Pricing on all fencing materials can fluctuate, but generally speaking, the up-front cost of wood fencing is usually lower than some other types of fencing. Keep in mind that wood fencing needs to be maintained by sealing and staining it over time, so its maintenance should be considered in the total cost of your purchase.
Do wood fences need staining or painting in Virginia?
In Virginia, it’s advisable to stain wood fences to protect them from the elements and prolong their lifespan. Guardian Fence is here to help with that need. We offer professional staining services using high-quality Wood Defender products, available in their complete range of colors, ensuring your fence not only has added protection but also maintains its aesthetic appeal.
Is a wood fence a good choice for the Virginia area?
Wood fencing is a popular option for homes and businesses in the Virginia region. A properly built wood fence is strong enough to stand-up to the harsh weather conditions of Virginia.
Properly maintained, wood fences last years and look great in Richmond Virginia.
How much will a new wood fence cost?
Prices on wood fences depend on the amoung of fencing you need as well as teh exac t style, height, and options you select. We provide wood fence quotes for free! Contact us or give us a call and our team of friendly, experienced staff will be glad to walk you through the process and plan a consultation.
Important!
We encourage you to speak with one of our wood fence experts before focusing solely on price! There are cheaper, inferior-quality fence materials available that will only last for a while. We don’t use them. There are also very inexperienced and unprofessional fence installers who continually cut corners and don’t stand behind their work, regardless of their so-called warranty.
Wood fences must stand up to Virginia high winds, harsh weather, and physical abuse from animals, kids, gardeners, and neighbors. Shopping for the cheapest fence is generally not the best way to choose the fence you want to protect and beautify your home and the people you care about.
Do wood fences have a warranty?
Wood fences, due to their natural material composition, typically do not come with warranties. However, at Guardian Fence, we understand the importance of quality and assurance. That’s why we use PostMaster posts which carry an outstanding limited lifetime warranty. Additionally, we stand by our craftsmanship and are proud to offer a lifetime workmanship warranty on all our wood fence installations.
How long will it take to get my wood fence installed?
Whether you need a residential wood fence or a commercial-grade wood fence, it generally only takes a few days (maximum) for one of our fence experts to get to most areas of Richmond Virginia – to walk your property and give you a detailed estimate of your entire wood fence project.
You can certainly call us to get even faster answers from our fence experts!
Once you approve the estimate, we can often install wood fences in most of Richmond Virginia within 1 to 3 weeks, but please check with our office of your specific project. There are times throughout the year where that timeframe may be less, or it may be longer.
There are “other” things that can delay the start of a fencing project. If you select a specific type of wood, or post options or decorative options that need to be special ordered; that will often delay the installation of your fence. We will help you to identify, in advance, any of your choices that are known to be likely to cause these additional delays, and we will offer alternatives whenever possible.

DIY Fence Estimate
If you’d like to get a rough idea on your own about how much fencing you will need, follow these easy steps:
- If you happen to know the dimensions of the area you wish to enclose, simply add the length of each side together. Use a tape measure. Rough estimates are fine, there is no need to be too precise, this is just a rough estimate at this point.
- Be sure to subtract the length of any structures (like a building or a storage shed that will serve as part of the barrier). This will give you a rough estimate as to how much fencing you will need.
- An additional step to get greater accuracy for the amount of wood fencing you will need, is to also subtract the length of any gates you will be using. The gates are often priced much differently than the fencing is. For this reason we usually recommend to property owners who are looking to develop their own fence estimate, to list the gates separately. A standard wood walk gate is approx 4 feet wide and a standard wood drive gate can easily be 10 feet wide or more.
Caution!
Wood fencing is priced and sold by SECTIONS, not by linear feet! Even when the linear footage is included specifically on price estimates … the total number of wood fence sections is a factor in this pricing. So, “price per linear foot” is only a rough estimate and rarely represents the actual cost of the finished wood fence!
This is a very interesting difference that we would love to explore and explain to you if you’d like to speak with one of our fence experts further. Be aware, “price per linear foot” is a ploy that many unprofessional fence installers in the Richmond Virginia area use!
What are some of the most popular applications of wood fencing in Virginia?
Wood fencing is unique in its ability to be utilized for such a wide array of applications. Listed below are some of the most popular applications of wood fencing:
- Decorative Wood Fencing
There are many decorative styles of wood fencing – perfect for showcase areas of a property or to set-off a section of your yard. Wood rail fences and wood picket fences are two of the most common decorative styles of wood fencing. - Wood Pool Fencing
Wood fencing is a perfect choice for the perimeter of a property to provide privacy for pool areas. We generally do not recommend wood fencing directly adjacent to the pool itself due to the high moisture content in the air. This moisture can cause the fence to deteriorate more rapidly than normal. - Wood Perimeter Fencing
Wood fencing is the staple of privacy fences. Popular across Virginia, a 6 foot dogear wood privacy fence is quite possibly the single-most requested fence we install.
Do I need a permit to get a wood fence installed in Virginia?
Every local municipality in Virginia has a separate set of requirements when it comes to building permits, and that includes wood fencing. Sometimes the specific height of the fence or placement of the fence or purpose of the fence can impact the need for a permit. There are also HOA considerations in some areas.
We have installed many wood fences in just about every possible area across Virginia so we are happy to answer these sorts of questions and/or to guide you through the process for your specific situation. This is one of the benefits of working with us!
The best way to get specific answers quickly and accurately is to simply call your town building code office.
