FREE* Gate With Purchase of White Vinyl Privacy Fence [Get Deal]

When the Neighbor's Ten Year Old Fence Was Discontinued in Imperial

This residential vinyl spaced picket fence installation in Imperial, MO helped the homeowner secure their backyard for dogs while keeping an open, classic fence style. The project included 160 linear feet of 4-foot white vinyl spaced picket fencing, 1 gate, and was completed in 2 days.

The homeowner wanted the new fence to closely match a neighbor’s fence that our team had installed about 10 years earlier. Because that exact fence style was no longer available, our team recommended a similar vinyl spaced picket fence installation option that matched the height and color while still supporting the homeowner’s pet containment needs.

Before and After Photos

Project Site Conditions

This was a fairly straightforward backyard installation in Imperial, MO, with the main digging challenges being roots and rock. The crew also needed to work carefully along the side property line because the neighbor’s sprinkler system had been installed very close to the fence location. Another challenge involved matching the look of a nearby vinyl fence that had been installed years earlier. The homeowner wanted a 4-foot white vinyl fence with a similar appearance, but the original product style was no longer available.

Customer Needs

The homeowner wanted a 4-foot white vinyl spaced picket fence that would look close to the neighbor’s fence previously installed by Maintenance-Free Outdoor Solutions. They liked the height, color, and open style of that earlier fence and wanted a similar look for their own backyard. Pet containment was also a major need because the homeowner had dogs of different sizes. The picket spacing had to be reviewed carefully to make sure the smallest dog could not easily pass through the fence.

The Solution / Approach

Our salesman brought a good-sized sample of the available vinyl spaced picket fence style to the estimate. This allowed the homeowner to compare the new option against the existing neighbor’s fence and review the differences in picket style and spacing before making a decision.

Although the exact older fence style was no longer offered, the recommended product matched the height and white color the homeowner wanted. The sample also allowed the customer to compare their smallest dog against the picket spacing to confirm the fence would work for their pet containment needs.

Before installation, our crew reviewed the layout with the homeowner and confirmed the fence placement, height off the ground, and property-line concerns. Because of the neighbor’s sprinkler system, the homeowner chose to bring the fence line farther inside the property than usual to reduce the risk of hitting the sprinkler line.

Results / Outcome

On day one, our crew laid out the fence with the homeowner and reviewed the contract one final time to confirm the correct location, height, and layout. This helped make sure the 160-foot vinyl spaced picket fence was installed exactly where the customer wanted it.

The crew completed the project in 2 days and did not hit the neighbor’s sprinkler line. Once the fence was finished, the homeowner let the dogs into the yard and there were no areas where the dogs could escape.

The finished white vinyl spaced picket fence gave the homeowner the open look they wanted, a close visual match to the nearby fence, and a practical backyard solution for pet containment.
