Dog Fence Installation Timeline: What Albany-Area Homeowners Can Expect
Wondering how long a dog fence install takes? Hidden Pet Fence of Albany finishes almost all installs in one day, with most customers scheduled within two weeks of their estimate.
Quick Answer
Installation usually takes just one day. Hidden Pet Fence of Albany completes almost all of its dog fence installs in a single visit, and most customers get on the schedule within two weeks after their estimate.
At a Glance
- One day: the length of almost all of our installations.
- Two weeks: the typical window between estimate and installation for most customers.
- DIY installs generally take much longer, especially when the wire is dug in by hand.
- Training and a money-back guarantee are available when you go with a professional.
What Is the Typical Installation Time?
One day. That’s the standard for almost every yard we do, which means you can have a professional-grade underground dog fence in place without a long, disruptive project.
How Quickly Can You Get on the Schedule?
Timing matters, especially if your dog has been getting out or you’re preparing for a new family member. For most customers, we’re able to schedule installation within two weeks of the estimate. That makes it easier to plan around your dog’s needs rather than a long waiting period.
Why Does DIY Take So Much Longer?
Homeowners who are handy can install the wire on their own, but it’s a real project. Some rent equipment, and others use a shovel, which takes a long time. A professional installation compresses that work into a single day. And because we also provide training for your dog, we can offer a money-back guarantee.
Choosing the Right Type of Fence
Our professional-grade systems are one option. We also offer GPS and wireless dog fences, and we can help you figure out which suits your property and your dog.
Repairs on an Existing System
If your current fence needs work, we service all brands of dog fences and can provide repairs or training.
