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:
Caution!
Fencing is often priced and sold by SECTIONS, not by linear feet! Even when the linear footage is included specifically in price estimates, the total number of 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 fence!
If you would love to explore and explain this difference, you can speak with one of our fence experts. Be aware that price per linear foot is a ploy many unprofessional fence installers in the Northwest Chicago area use!

Fencing is one of the most accessible industries for start-up businesses and novice laborers to get into. For these people looking to make a few extra dollars installing fences, a shovel, a level, and a string line may be all they need.
As a result, there are many individuals or companies who show up in Northwest Chicago, install residential fences for a short time, and then disappear. We see it all the time. Beware! You only want to work with a fully licensed and insured fencing contractor in Northwest Chicago.
Here are some of the main pitfalls of working with non-professionals:
The Residential Fence Warranty is Void
If the individual or company that installed your residential fence is no longer in business, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was improperly installed or damaged during installation. Both situations are common with non-professionals.
The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long
As a professional fence company, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. Our dedication to improving our skills, knowledge of the best fencing materials, and best fence installation techniques maximizes the strength and life of your fence. Companies that install fences as something they do "on the side" usually have no idea how much they don't know about residential fencing or what is best for you and your property.
Your Property May be at Risk
Installing residential fences in the Northwest Chicago area can be risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the fence installation can blow materials and damage your home. We've seen concrete splatter onto cars or drip down beautiful driveways or walkways as buckets of wet concrete are transported. Deep tire tracks sinking into your grass is another common issue. The secondary damage to homes and yards is common when untrained labor installs the fence.
Additionally, you are at risk if anyone gets hurt on your property while they are working. If you hire an unlicensed or uninsured contractor, you may be liable and your homeowner's insurance may deny payment!
At first glance, hiring a novice to install your fence may save you a few dollars, but in the long run, it is almost certainly a price you cannot afford to pay!

Yes! We are a leading aluminum fencing contractor across the entire Northwest Chicago area.
Our crews are specially trained in the latest aluminum fence installation techniques, ensuring that your fence will look great, function properly, and hold up to the harsh weather typical of Northwest Chicago.
Aluminum fencing is a popular option for homes and businesses in the Northwest Chicago region. Aluminum fences are strong yet lightweight; with their durable protective coating, aluminum fences easily stand up to the harsh weather conditions of Northwest Chicago.
Other fence materials are less expensive initially, but aluminum fencing requires nearly zero maintenance. Over time, aluminum fencing is a less expensive fencing material, saving time and money when compared to many other alternatives because aluminum fences do not need to be painted or sealed.
If a maintenance-free elegant fence is what you want, look no further than aluminum fencing.
Aluminum fences are very durable! Don't let the light weight fool you. Aluminum is a very strong material used in airplanes, cars, and many other items that are designed to protect you. Aluminum fencing is more than strong enough and durable enough to protect your home or business while standing strong in the face of the Northwest Chicago weather. Typical physical abuse from falling limbs, landscapers, kids, animals, neighbors, and more is usually no problem for our professional-quality aluminum fencing.
It should be mentioned, however, that some discount fencing contractors in Northwest Chicago are known to undercut prices by using lower-quality aluminum fencing, which absolutely does not hold up well. Be careful. You get what you pay for!
Whether you need a residential aluminum fence or a commercial-grade aluminum fence, it generally only takes a few days maximum for one of our fence experts to get to most areas of Northwest Chicago, walk your property, and give you a detailed estimate of your aluminum 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 aluminum fences in most of Northwest Chicago within 1 to 3 weeks, but please check with our office about your specific project. At times throughout the year, that timeframe may be less, or it may be longer.
Other things can delay the start of a fencing project. If you choose custom aluminum fence material, style, color, or add-ons that must be specially ordered, your fence installation will often be delayed. Like nearly every fencing contractor in the Northwest Chicago, we do not stock a large amount of custom aluminum fencing options. These materials come from various manufacturers, and shipping and delivery times are beyond our control. We will help you identify, in advance, any of your choices that are likely to cause these additional delays, and we will offer alternatives whenever possible.

Many small fence companies in Northwest Chicago install aluminum fencing. Very few specifically train their teams on the best installation techniques and practices for aluminum fencing. Unfortunately, this means that your aluminum fence is probably not installed as securely as it could be, which ultimately can reduce the quality and lifespan of your aluminum fence.
Using inferior installation techniques and improper tools can also damage the aluminum fence during installation, which may have the unfortunate impact of voiding the manufacturer's warranty since you chose an unqualified contractor not approved by the manufacturer.

Yes! We are a leading chain link fencing contractor across the entire Northwest Chicago area.
Our crews are specially trained in the latest chain link fence installation techniques, ensuring that your fence will look great, function properly, and hold up to the harsh weather typical of Northwest Chicago.
PVC-coated chain link fencing, also called vinyl-coated chain link fencing, is that beautiful, colored coating that can be added to chain link fencing. More than a simple color choice, vinyl coating your chain link fence increases the rust and corrosion resistance of the fence and extends the life of your chain link fence.
Colored vinyl coatings added to chain link fences are popular in the Northwest Chicago area. These PVC coatings are applied at the factory for maximum quality and protection. Because they create a smooth finish, they are frequently used for athletic fields, pool areas, and other places where children are commonly found.
Adding a tension wire to the bottom of a chain link fence creates more security by preventing the fence from being pushed out by children or animals. If a tension wire is insufficient, installing a bottom rail will create an even stronger barrier than a tension wire.
Yes, they do!
Our chain link fences have impressive warranties directly from the manufacturer. Depending on the specific brand and style of chain link fence you choose, many of them come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty, ensuring that all chain link fencing materials and vinyl finishes will be free from manufacturing defects for the entire duration of the warranty period. Of course, we will guide you through these essential details to make sure you get the best warranty available.
We also offer our comprehensive workmanship warranty for every fence we install. We take pride in our work and our craftsmanship. We earn our outstanding reputation in Northwest Chicago one happy customer at a time!
Fence placement is ultimately the responsibility of you, the customer. Moving a fence after installation can be costly, so getting a survey to be safe is never a bad idea.

If the individual or company that installed your wood fence is no longer in business, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless.
The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long
As a professional fence company, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. Our dedication to improving our skills, knowledge of the best fencing materials, and best wood fence installation techniques maximizes the strength and life of your fence. Companies that install wood fences as something they do "on the side" usually have no idea how much they don't know about wood fencing or what is best for you and your property.
Your Property May be at Risk
Installing wood fences in the Northwest Chicago area can be risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the fence installation can blow materials and damage your home. We've seen concrete splatter onto cars or drip down beautiful driveways or walkways as buckets of wet concrete are transported. Deep tire tracks sinking into your grass is another common issue. The secondary damage to homes and yards is common when untrained labor installs the fence.
Additionally, you are at risk if anyone gets hurt on your property while they are working. If you hire an unlicensed or uninsured contractor, you may be liable and your homeowner's insurance may deny payment!
At first glance, hiring a novice to install your wood fence may save you a few dollars, but in the long run, it is almost certainly a price you cannot afford to pay!
There are many benefits to installing a gate on your property, including increased security, privacy, and curb appeal. A gate can help deter intruders and unwanted visitors, as well as provide a barrier to keep children and pets safely contained. It can also enhance the aesthetics of your property and add value to your home.
We can use any material that we carry, including wood, ornamental steel, vinyl, aluminum and chain link to create your fence gate to your specifications. We can create a variety of gates, from highly customized creations to standard fence gates. With over 15 years of experience, we have installed numerous residential and commercial gates throughout the Northwest Chicago area.
Installing a commercial gate offers several benefits, including enhanced security, controlled access, increased privacy, and improved aesthetics. A commercial gate acts as a physical barrier, preventing unauthorized entry and providing a secure environment for your business. It also allows you to control who enters your property, ensuring only authorized personnel or visitors gain access.
We offer several types of commercial gates, including swing gates and sliding gates. Swing gates open inward or outward like a door, sliding gates move horizontally along a track, and vertical lift gates rise vertically. Each type has its advantages and suitability based on your specific needs and available space.
Automatic gates offer unparalleled convenience and security, surpassing the capabilities of manual gates. Additionally, these gates can incorporate access control systems to restrict entry solely to authorized individuals, enhancing security measures and ensuring safety for your property.
The costs of automatic gates are highly variable based on the selected material and the scale of your project. Our knowledgeable team of gate experts offers complimentary estimates to our customers and is ready to address any questions you may have about our automatic gates.
Absolutely! The experts at Innova Fence will guide you through the design and selection process to ensure the installation of the optimal automatic gate for your requirements.
