Measure Twice, Quote Once – What to Expect with Trinity

Thinking about adding a fence, deck, or outdoor structure? 🛠️ Whether it’s your first project or your fifth, knowing what to expect from the estimate process can save time, stress, and even money. At Trinity Fence & Deck, we believe the quoting experience should be just as solid as the finished product—clear, honest, and built to last.

🛠️ Step One: Let’s Talk Details (Yes, Even the Chickens)

When you fill out our contact form, we ask for a few basics—your ZIP code, phone number, and a quick description of your project. Whether you’re planning a privacy fence, replacing an old gate, or dreaming up a deck for family cookouts, we’re all ears. 🐶🐔👶

We’ll follow up by phone or text to confirm what you’re looking for and schedule a time to walk the property. Got a timeline or budget range? Let us know—we’ll keep it in mind as we shape the right plan for your space.

Check out our post on fencing for the whole dang family if you’ve got pets, littles, or backyard chickens in the mix.

📏 What Happens During the Estimate

One of our team members – we’ve been doing this for three decades – will come out to:

We’re not just pricing boards—we’re planning your backyard’s next chapter.

And here’s something our customers will love and appreciate: In many cases, we can create a CAD-style visual rendering on-site, using a photo of your actual space. 🖼️ You’ll get to preview where that fence line could run, or how a deck might frame your yard—right there during the visit. It’s personal, it’s fast, and it helps make the vision real.

📄 What You’ll Get Afterward

We’ll send you a comprehensive digital estimate that clearly lays out:

  • Scope of work
  • Materials and layout
  • Estimated timeline
  • Total project cost, with no surprise line items

But here’s the thing—quotes can vary wildly from one company to another, and cheaper isn’t always better.

🍎 Apples to Apples: Not All Quotes Are Built the Same

Some companies handwrite a number on the back of a business card. Others offer a low price, then add fees later. At Trinity, we believe in transparency from the get-go.

Here’s what to watch for when comparing quotes:

  • Post depth and spacing – Stability matters 🪵
  • Type of materials – Not all “cedar” or treated wood is the same
  • Fasteners & hardware – Galvanized? Stainless? Big difference
  • Warranty or workmanship guarantee – Always ask
  • Cleanup and haul-away – Included, or a hidden extra? 🧹

We’re happy to walk you through your Trinity quote line-by-line—and if you’ve got another estimate you’re unsure about, we’ll help you compare it fairly. No pressure. Just clarity.

🌱 Paperless, Stress-less, and Still Personal

Trinity is a fully paperless company, which means your estimate, approvals, and scheduling all happen digitally—easy, clean, and efficient. 💻 That also means less waste, which we kinda love. We’ve got deep respect for the trees we don’t have to cut down—especially the ones that make a fence line feel like home.

But don’t worry—if you’re more of a paper-in-hand kind of person, we’ve got you. We’ll print what you need, walk you through it, and make sure you’re 100% comfortable.

Whether you’re all digital or a little old-school, we meet you where you are.

📬 Ready to Get Started?

We serve homeowners across Georgetown, Round Rock, Leander, Cedar Park, and the surrounding Austin area—and we’d be honored to build something just for you.

Behind her is a sketched fence line and toolbox, giving a nod to the planning process. The vibe is cheerful, trustworthy, and ready to measure twice and build right.

Well that’s the lowdown, y’all! Whether you’re buildin’ somethin’ brand new or finally replacing that leanin’ fence out back, Trinity’s quote process is designed to give you peace of mind from the very first step. We’ll show you what’s possible, lay it out plain, and walk the fence line like it’s our own backyard.

No guessin’. No gimmicks. Just good folks and great fences.

I called on a Friday evening after 5:00 and left a message, not expecting to hear back at least until Saturday or maybe even Monday. To my surprise, Neil called me back within 20 minutes and set an appointment to take a look and give me a bid the very next day. The bid was very reasonably priced and we decided to go with them. They got the job scheduled for Wednesday, the very same week and got the job done in just one day. Not only that, but they upgraded the materials from the usual, with galvanized steel posts instead of wooden 4x4s, using three support bars instead of two, and using three hinges on each gate, not just two preventing sag. I could not be happier with their service and will definitely use them again.

The estimator was very thorough explaining options and provided a fair estimate. He explained why the option to use metal supports was better than wood in a way that made the cost difference worth it. The job was done very quickly and the fence looked nice. It was a big improvement I over what we had.

If you have fence, deck, concrete needs I highly recommend Trinity Fence & Deck! Amazing to work with, daily communication on project status, and really nice guys! We added a patio extension in the backyard and a sidewalk to our driveway and we couldn't be happier with the work or the company experience.

✨ BEYOND THE BUILD ✨
Some Saturdays are just different.
Not because they’re big or busy — but because they stick.
Backyard burgers 🍔, firefly chases 🐞, quiet mornings ☕️, and loud laughs echoing off the fence.

These are the kind of days we build for.
Not just the structure… but the stories that come with it.

💬 So tell us — what simple backyard moment would you bottle up forever?
