Common Questions About Fence Installation & Service

  • What types of fencing do you install in the Northern Kentucky area?

    LeGrand Fence Contractors installs a full range of fence types for residential, commercial, and agricultural properties across Boone, Kenton, and Campbell Counties. Our offerings include privacy wood fences, picket and charm styles, chain link, vinyl privacy, ornamental aluminum, and livestock-grade farm fencing. Each installation is tailored to your site, soil, and security needs. Our team uses regionally rated materials and advanced layout techniques to ensure your fence stands up to local weather and terrain, from Triple Crown subdivisions to farms along Beaver Road.

  • How does your process ensure fences last in Boone County clay soil?

    Our construction methods are specifically adapted for the heavy clay and freeze-thaw cycles found in Boone County and surrounding areas. We use bell-shaped footings set below the frost line, crowned concrete to shed water, and ground-contact rated lumber for all wood installations. Site layouts are owner-reviewed, with tight string lines and consistent picket gaps maintained by story poles. This approach prevents common failures like post heave, sagging, and premature rot—giving your fence a longer, worry-free lifespan.

  • Can you handle land clearing and fence installation as one project?

    Yes. Unlike most fence companies, LeGrand internalizes both forestry mulching and fence installation. We clear brush, saplings, and tangled vines with high-efficiency mulching equipment, then set your fence line with the final layout in mind. This integrated approach ensures the clearing path is ready for post-setting, reduces project delays, and eliminates the friction of multiple contractors. Whether you’re prepping acreage near Big Bone Lick or a backyard in Harmony, we streamline your project start to finish.

  • What sets your fence repairs apart from other contractors?

    We apply a 'Smart Fix' philosophy: finding and correcting the root cause instead of masking symptoms. Our repair team addresses issues like wobbly posts, sagging gates, and warped boards by resetting footings, replacing with ground-contact lumber, and using corrosion-resistant hardware. We don’t just brace or patch—every repair is built to last and protect your investment. Owner involvement means each fix is reviewed for long-term performance, from farm lanes to residential yards.

  • Do you install and service automated driveway gates?

    Yes. LeGrand installs UL 325 compliant automated gate systems for both residential and commercial properties throughout Northern Kentucky. We offer swing and slide gates, keypad and remote control entry, and can integrate solar-assisted options. Our team ensures proper sizing, safety compliance, and local code adherence for every project. We also provide service calls for troubleshooting and maintenance, so your entry stays secure even in challenging weather.

  • How do you protect my property and minimize disruption during a project?

    Respect for your lawn, landscaping, and neighbors is central to our process. We use 'weather-smart' planning to avoid ruts, carefully mark septic fields, and keep job sites clean and organized. Our crews are trained to work efficiently and discreetly, leaving your property ready for use with no debris left behind. Whether you’re in Ballyshannon or near Boone County Arboretum, your home or farm is treated with owner-level care.

  • What warranty do you provide on your fencing work?

    LeGrand Fence Contractors stands behind every installation and repair with a 2-year craftsmanship warranty. This covers structural integrity and workmanship. Material warranties for vinyl, aluminum, and specialty products vary by supplier and are detailed at the time of your quote. Our commitment to quality—and to doing the job right the first time—means you can trust your fence or gate to perform for years to come.
