Whether you are upgrading your curb appeal or securing your backyard, installing a new fence is an exciting project. However, before any ground is broken, safety must be the top priority. Beneath the surface of your yard lies a complex network of hidden utility lines, including electricity, gas, water, and internet cables. Striking one of these lines can cause severe injuries, expensive fines, and widespread neighborhood outages. That is why the experts at Superior Fence and Rail always emphasize one crucial step before starting any installation: you must call 811 before you dig.
Calling 811 is a free service that notifies your local utility companies about your intent to dig. Once you make the call, professionals are dispatched to your property to mark the approximate location of buried lines with color-coded flags or paint. At Superior Fence and Rail, safety is a core value, and ensuring that a property is properly marked protects both homeowners and installation crews from entirely preventable, and often dangerous, hazards.
Ultimately, a new fence should bring you lasting peace of mind, not a utility nightmare. By taking the time to respect the 811 process, you guarantee that your property’s upgrades go smoothly and safely from start to finish. Working with a dedicated team means your project will be handled with the utmost care and professionalism every step of the way.
