Spring and summer may seem like the obvious seasons for fence installations, but here’s the truth: fall and winter are prime seasons for getting a fence installed. From saving money to faster turnarounds, choosing the off-season comes with serious benefits for both residential and commercial fencing projects.

Let’s explore 10 reasons why you should consider installing your fence in the fall or winter—and why Peel Fence is the perfect partner for the job.

Discover Our Fall & Winter Fence Installation Services


1. Skip the Spring and Summer Rush

Spring and summer are peak seasons for fencing companies, leading to packed schedules, longer wait times, and potential delays. Fall and winter offer a calmer season where your project gets scheduled faster, and you avoid the chaos of peak-season demand.

2. Take Advantage of Seasonal Discounts

Demand tends to drop in the cooler months, and with that comes off-season pricing. Many fencing companies, including Peel Fence, provide special discounts during the fall and winter seasons. You’ll save money while still receiving the same high-quality materials and craftsmanship.

3. Ideal Ground Conditions for Installation

Fall and winter offer some of the best ground conditions for installing fences. Unlike the soggy, muddy soil of spring or the rock-hard dryness of summer, fall and winter ground is typically firm and stable. This helps fence posts set securely, ensuring a sturdy, durable fence.


4. Better Material Performance

Some fencing materials tend to perform better in cooler temperatures. Extreme heat can cause certain materials to warp or expand during installation. In fall and winter, fencing materials settle properly, creating a stronger, more durable structure for your fence.

5. Faster Turnaround Times

With fewer projects booked in the fall and winter, experienced fence installers like the team at Peel Fence have more availability. Your project will be completed faster, with no long waits for materials or crew schedules. This streamlined process ensures you get your fence up when you need it.


6. Prepare for Spring Landscaping

A fence installed in the off-season allows you to plan your landscaping or outdoor projects for spring without delay. Once warmer weather arrives, you’ll already have a beautiful fence framing your property, ready for the next steps.


7. Increased Security During Winter

For businesses and homeowners, winter storms can bring challenges like flying debris and damaged landscaping. Installing a fence before the worst of winter hits provides added protection and security for your property when you need it most.
