Determine Your Needs

The best place to start on your DIY fencing journey is to ask yourself what purpose your fence will serve. The first step before you install a new fence is to ask yourself what purpose your fence will serve. We have several fencing materials available, whether you need a pet fence, privacy fence, or any combination of purposes. We also offer a range of commercial-grade fencing materials for fencing contractors in New York.

Measure and Design

A great way to start the process of designing your fence is to measure your property. All our experts need to order your fencing materials is a series of measurements or a quick drawing with the dimensions of your property. 

 

You’ll want to ensure that you prepare and complete all of the pre-installation steps before ordering fence materials with our professionals. Here are some very important items to keep in mind:

 

  • Be sure to get accurate measurements by marking and measuring your yard. You’ll want to make sure that you reference your property survey to identify the boundaries of your property and mark them clearly. A property survey will help ensure that your fence is on your property and won’t need to be moved.
  • Locate underground utilities by calling the local authorities to submit a request. Underground utility lines will affect where your fence posts can be placed. You should also determine the location of your personal utility lines. 
  • Research local zoning codes and restrictions. Some cities and neighborhoods have restrictions on fencing. Also, check and see if your HOA has any restrictions on the height or type of fence you need to install. 
  • Check for obstructions on your property that may encroach on your fence line, including sheds, trees, or other plant life. 
  • Check where the frost line is in your area so that your fence posts are set at the proper depth.

Purchase Fence Materials in Westchester County

Considering the time and effort you’ll spend installing your own fence, you’ll want it to be as durable and long-lasting as possible! Campanella Fence only uses and supplies professional-grade materials from the most respected manufacturers in the industry. No need to use second-rate materials from the big box stores. 

 

We often have the more popular styles already on hand, but be sure to check with us to make sure the style you choose is readily available, as some styles take longer than others to receive. Our team will be happy to tell you about any potential delays or discuss any other materials. 

Aluminum Fencing Materials

Aluminum fences are strong, elegant, and versatile, making them a popular choice for fences in New York. Aluminum fences have several benefits, including:

 

Curb Appeal: An aluminum fence will complement a property’s architecture and landscape design and provide a beautiful look to any home or business. 

 

Low-maintenance: Aluminum fencing is also a very low-maintenance material that requires no sealing or painting and can be easily cleaned with a garden hose.

 

Strength and Durability: Aluminum fence panels are lightweight and easy to install but are very durable and can stand up to weather conditions on commercial and residential properties.

Vinyl Fencing Materials

Our vinyl fencing materials are available in several styles for homeowners looking to DIY their fence or fencing contractors. There are so many benefits to using vinyl for your fence, including:

 

Low Maintenance:  Vinyl fencing doesn’t require any routine maintenance like staining, painting, or sealing and can be quickly cleaned up with a rinse from the hose. 

 

Strong and Long-lasting: Vinyl fencing is designed to avoid warping, twisting, fading, or cracking.

 

Security: Vinyl fencing is a great option to deter would-be trespassers, and it’s hard to climb the smooth surface of a solid vinyl privacy fence, so a burglar is sure to move on before trying.

Chain Link Fencing

The relatively inexpensive nature of chain link fencing combined with its durability makes chain link a popular choice for fences in New York. Here are some of the benefits: 

 

Budget-Friendly: Chain link fencing is more affordable than other types of fencing materials.

 

Longevity: Modern chain link fences are made from galvanized steel and can last up to 20 years.

 

PVC Coating Option: We offer PVC-coated chain link coating to give your fence an upgraded look and increase its longevity.

Wood Fencing

Wood fencing is a popular choice among Westchester County properties. With its all-natural aesthetic and strong material, it looks great in both privacy and picket designs.

 

Economical: Often, wood fencing is one of the lowest-cost fence materials up front and is an easy type of material to adjust to any space.

 

Natural Beauty: Wood fencing is often chosen due to its natural appearance and can be painted or stained to almost any color you can imagine!

 

Customizable: Wood fences can be customized into privacy fences, decorative fences, semi-privacy fences, and more.
