Straight Answers to Fence Questions

The questions we hear at every kitchen table and every job trailer — answered plainly. Don't see yours? Call 918-417-2143 or ask at your free estimate.

Pricing & Value

How much does a fence cost?

Honest answer: it depends on material, height, length, terrain, gates, and tear-out of any old fence — which is exactly why our estimates are free and in person. Chain link is typically the most economical per foot, wood is mid-range, and vinyl and ornamental iron cost more up front but need little to no maintenance. What we can promise: in many cases Omni saves customers 10–20% versus competing bids on equal or better materials, and your written price is honored for 60 days.

Why are your prices lower if your quality is higher?

Structure, not shortcuts. We're a family-owned business spanning three generations — no franchise royalties, no layers of marketing middlemen, and our own crews instead of subcontractor markups. That overhead difference goes into your pocket, not out of your materials.

Do you offer financing?

Yes — terms up to 10 years are available, subject to credit approval. Use our payment calculator to estimate a monthly payment by amount, term, and credit range, then apply with your salesperson.

Estimates & Scheduling

How does the free estimate work?

A professional Omni salesperson meets you at the property, measures the project, discusses styles and materials, and provides a written estimate good for 60 days. There's no cost and no obligation. Request yours here.

How long does installation take?

Most residential fences are completed in one to three working days once materials are on hand and utilities are located. Larger residential, ranch, and commercial projects are scheduled and phased with you in advance. Weather can move dates — we'll communicate if it does.

Do I need to be home during installation?

Not usually, as long as we have access to the work area and any pets are secured. We do a final walk-through with you at completion to check every line and adjust every gate.

Permits, Property Lines & HOAs

Do I need a permit for my fence?

Many Oklahoma cities require a permit or zoning clearance for new fences, and requirements vary by city, fence height, and location on the lot (corner lots and front yards often have extra rules). Your Omni salesperson will advise you on your city's requirements as part of your estimate and guide you through what's needed. When in doubt, we check with the city before we build — not after.

How do I know where my property line is?

Your plat, mortgage survey, or existing survey pins are the starting point; a licensed surveyor is the definitive answer if pins can't be found or a boundary is disputed. We build where you direct us on your property — and we strongly recommend confirming lines and talking with neighbors before setting posts. It's far cheaper than moving a fence.

What about my HOA?

Many HOAs regulate fence height, material, color, and orientation (finished side out is a common rule). Bring your covenants to your estimate — our salespeople work with HOA requirements every week and can help you submit for approval.

Will you call to have utilities located?

Yes. Underground utility lines are located before we dig post holes — it's a standard, non-negotiable step of every Omni installation.

Materials & Construction

Which fence material is best for Oklahoma?

There's no single "best" — there's best for your purpose. Cedar gives warmth and privacy at a strong price; vinyl trades a higher up-front cost for near-zero maintenance; ornamental iron gives security with open views and is ideal for pools; chain link is the workhorse for pure containment value; and pipe or wire fencing is the standard for livestock. Oklahoma's wind matters in all of them — which is why we offer steel-post wood fences and build to wind-country standards. Your salesperson will lay out the trade-offs honestly.

How deep do you set posts?

Deep enough for the fence's height, soil, and wind load — set in concrete, every time. Post depth is the single biggest difference between a fence that leans in three years and one that stands for decades, and it's where cut-rate installers save their money. We don't.

Should I stain my wood fence?

Yes, if you want it to keep its color and shed water — stain is sunscreen for wood. New fences should cure before staining; we offer professional stain and seal service for new and existing fences.

Warranties & Service

What warranty do I get?

Two layers: the full manufacturer's warranty on every product we install, and Omni's lifetime workmanship warranty on the installation itself. If our craftsmanship ever fails, we repair it. You receive both in writing at completion.

Do you repair fences you didn't build?

Yes — we repair fences of every material and every maker, including storm damage, and we'll tell you honestly when a repair no longer makes economic sense. See Repairs & Storm Restoration.

How do I pay my invoice?
