Do I need a permit for a fence or driveway in Greenville SC?
In Greenville County and most Upstate SC municipalities, permits for driveway pours and taller fences are usually something the homeowner takes care of. We can advise on what your jurisdiction requires and supply the drawings, specs, and material details you need to submit.
How do I choose the right fence and concrete contractor in Greenville SC?
Verify a few basics before signing. Look for an owner-operated team rather than a franchise running subcontractor crews, ask for a fixed quote in writing, and check that Google and Houzz reviews are recent and consistent. A written warranty on materials and workmanship matters, and a single company that handles concrete, fence, and hardscape gives you one accountable party when work overlaps. DFence Co was built on these standards.
How do I prepare my property for a DFence Co installation?
Clear the work zone of vehicles, patio furniture, and decorative landscaping at least the day before. Mark sprinkler heads, low-voltage lines, and septic field perimeters if you know them. We will locate any utility lines through 811 (free utility locate) at least 72 hours before any digging.
What payment terms does DFence Co accept?
Standard residential jobs run on a 50 percent deposit at scheduling and 50 percent at completion. Larger bundled projects can be split into three milestones. We accept checks, ACH, and major credit cards. There is a 3 percent transaction fee associated with all card payments.
Are DFence Co installers employees or subcontractors?
DFence Co uses a mix of in-house crew and trusted, vetted subcontractors depending on the trade and project size. Every project is supervised end-to-end by DFence Co and backed by a written workmanship guarantee regardless of who performs the work.
What is your warranty coverage on concrete and fence work?
Every DFence Co project carries a written workmanship warranty covering structural failure caused by improper sub-base, reinforcement, post-setting, or finish work. Material warranties pass through from the manufacturer (typically 25 years on vinyl, lifetime on aluminum, 5 to 10 years on stains and sealers).
How does DFence Co handle weather delays?
Concrete pours pause for steady rain, freeze warnings, or air temperatures outside the proper cure window of 40 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit for standard mixes. Fence and hardscape installs also pause for light rain, since wet ground turns the work zone into a muddy mess that affects post-set quality and finished grade. We re-schedule any weather-impacted day to the next available slot and notify you the night before.
Can DFence Co work alongside my landscaper or pool builder?
Yes. We coordinate sequencing with landscape architects, pool contractors, and irrigation crews so the right trade is on site at the right time. Working backward from a pool gunite date is the most common scenario and we handle it weekly.
Do you handle HOA approvals for fence or concrete projects?
We provide CAD or hand-drawn site plans, material specs, and color samples for HOA submission. The homeowner submits to the HOA because most HOAs require the property owner to be the named applicant. We will revise drawings as needed if the HOA requests changes.
How long is a DFence Co fixed-price quote valid?
Quotes are firm for 60 days from issue. After 60 days we may revise pricing if material costs (concrete, lumber, vinyl, aluminum) have moved more than 5 percent. Most projects are scheduled and locked in well inside the 60-day window.
