COVID-19 and the Local Fence Industry
Every business has been turned upside down in light of the COVID-19 epidemic and the fence industry is no different. In many cities across the country, fence companies were considered to be essential businesses, and although doors were open it was hardly business as usual.
Locally, many fence and construction companies were forced to adapt to a consistently changing landscape. Sourcing materials became a challenge as suppliers across the country closed or performed at a reduced capacity due to social distancing guidelines and prices for wood skyrocketed. As many building departments switched to online formats overnight, the permitting process slowed down exponentially. Despite all of these factors, Quintessential Fences has been able to grow and serve the local community amid all of the uncertainty.
Here are some measures we’ve taken to continue providing our quality of service (even during a global pandemic):
