The Pros And Cons Of Building a Fence Yourself
Consider installing a fence, but not sure whether you should ask a professional to install it or install it yourself?
Keep the following points in mind when making a decision.
DIY fence installation
Advantage
One of the benefits of installing the fence yourself is that you don't need to pay the company labor costs. This usually ends up being cheaper, which is one of the main reasons most people consider DIY in the first place.
By installing the fence yourself, you can also choose what you want in terms of materials, styles, etc., but this will only be limited by your own ability and local regulations. Some companies may have limited options, so this is important for companies that have very clear ideas about what they want. Not to mention that after installing the fence, you can see it every day, and know that you built it, you will be proud. 
Disadvantage
Installing the gabion fence yourself is not without problems. Although you can save money and labor costs to the company, you have to spend your own time to install the fence. Keep in mind that most fence installers have multiple teams, which helps speed up the process. If there are only you and one or two friends, you may have to spend hours working hard.
If you are a complete stranger to DIY fence construction, you need to do a lot of research beforehand. You need to make sure you use the right materials, have all the right tools, research your local regulations, and check your property boundaries again.
If the installation is not perfect, there may be some problems. The cost of professional repairs or even replacement of your fences will make the final cost higher than you just hired them in the first place.
Hire a team to help you install the fence
Advantage
Although you may spend more money on a team than installing it yourself, remember that you are also paying for their expertise. If a contractor has installed fences for several years, they may have installed dozens of fences. Not many homeowners can say that they have done the same thing.
In addition, you can save a lot of time by hiring a team. Generally speaking, professionals can install a fence within one to three days.
So, instead of spending time researching, preparing, and hours of hard work installing a fence yourself, you can relax and let an experienced professional take care of it for you.
Disadvantage
When hiring a team to install fences for you, affordability is definitely an issue. Take into account that you have to pay not only the cost of materials, but also the cost of labor. If you have a tight hand, this may not be for you. However, there is no need to let costs hinder you. Some companies may let you pay in installments and even have financing plans.
In general, if you have some extra time on hand, have experience in carpentry or construction, and have a few friends who can help you, you will be a good candidate to install your own fence.
If you lack experience in these things, have a short time, and want a professional team to quickly install a fence, consider hiring someone to do it for you.
