Detailed Directions for the Estimating Tool
- Enter your name, email, and mobile phone number. Press “Next.” This information is required, so we know where to send a copy of your instant quote.
- Enter the address of the site where the fence will be installed. Press “Find Your Home.” This will pull up an aerial view of the property.
- Draw your fence(s) on the aerial map of the property using your finger (touch screens) or your mouse. Place the cross arrow where you want one section of the fence to start, and click where you want that section to end (corner to corner). Repeat until the entire fence is drawn.
- Once the fence is drawn, add any gates. (This calculates the approximate linear footage of the fence along with post and gate information.) Press “Next.”
- Select the material (vinyl, aluminum, cedar, or chain link) you want your fence made of and fill out the additional fence style information. Press “Next.”
- At this point, an estimated range will appear for your fence. If you’d like to change your options, you can return and do so. Once satisfied, hit “Next” to get your instant estimate. (The final quote will be sent to you after A to Z fence experts have reviewed it and potentially completed an onsite consultation.)
Property Line Guide
Figuring out your property lines can seem daunting, but it doesn’t have to be! Whether you’re planning a new fence or landscaping project or simply want clarity about your property boundaries, there are several reliable methods to help you determine exactly where your property begins and ends.
Start with the Paperwork Â
One of the most straightforward ways to begin is with your property deed. This document contains a detailed legal description of your property, including metes and bounds, which outline the distances and angles of your property lines. It’s a simple and reliable starting point.
If the language in your deed feels too complex, you can also visit your local county recorder’s office. There, you can access property line surveys or plat maps on file (if they exist) that clearly show your property boundaries in a visual format.
Look for Physical Markers Â
Did you know your property might already have built-in clues to define its boundaries? Many properties have buried survey pins or markers at each corner placed during a professional survey. These are metal stakes driven into the ground and are sometimes visible.
However, they may require some excavation or a metal detector to uncover. If you plan to dig, remember to call your local “call before you dig” hotline to avoid damaging underground utility lines.
Use Modern Tools or Bring in an Expert Â
While modern tools like your county’s Geographic Information System (GIS) website can provide a general view of property boundaries, the most precise and legally recognized results come from a professional surveyor. These experts use specialized equipment to accurately measure and mark your property lines, providing a definitive answer. Â
Keep Legal and Neighborly Considerations in Mind Â
When it comes to confirming your property lines, accuracy is key. While online maps or existing fences can offer a rough idea, only an official survey can truly guarantee the correct boundaries. Additionally, communicating with your neighbors is an important step—whether it’s out of courtesy or to avoid future disagreements. Everyone benefits when there’s clarity.
Determining your property lines doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Combining methods like deed checks, physical markers, and professional measurements allows you to identify your boundaries and move forward with peace of mind.
