Question 2

What is the best fence for Florida weather?

Accepted Answer

Aluminum fencing is the best choice for Florida weather because it resists rust, withstands salt air near the coast, and handles hurricane-force winds. PVC/vinyl is also excellent as it won't rot or warp in humidity. Both outlast wood fencing in Florida's subtropical climate. Allied Fence & Gate installs all three types across Martin County and Palm Beach County.

Question 3

Do I need a permit for a fence in Martin County FL?

Yes, Martin County requires a fence permit for most residential and commercial fence installations. The permit process typically takes 5-10 business days. Allied Fence & Gate handles all permitting as part of our installation service at no extra charge. We also call 811 for underground utility locating before any digging begins.

Question 4

Does insurance cover fence replacement in Florida?

Accepted Answer

Most Florida homeowner insurance policies cover fence replacement if damaged by a covered peril like hurricanes, falling trees, or vehicle impact. Coverage depends on your policy's Replacement Cost Value (RCV) vs Actual Cash Value (ACV). Allied Fence & Gate accepts insurance claims and offers a free AI-powered insurance document scanner to help identify your fencing line items.
