As we approach flag flying season, consider using our service experts for your flagpole installation. There are several steps, and precautionary measures that must happen in order for the installation to be a success.
Step 1:
For starters, we want our clients to always have the perfect size flagpole, whether it is at your home, at your work, or in a park. If you are unsure what size is right for you, we can schedule one of our technicians to come out to do a site visual. We will assist you on where the flagpole should be located. We will consider the surroundings to provide the best visibility.
Step 2:
In order to dig safe, calling an underground locate is required. A locate marks the area for gas lines, electrical lines, plumbing, and telecommunications. This step should not be ignored, the consequence of hitting a gas or electrical line are massive.
Step 3:
Once locate is finished, we dig a hole, and will place a PVC or steel ground sleeve in the hole. Next, we add cement around the ground sleeve.
Step 4:
After the cement is cured, 3 to 7 days later, the flagpole installation will begin. The Flagpole will be placed in the ground sleeve. Depending on the height of the flagpole we would utilize a crane or our service technicians can walk up a short flagpole. Dry packed sand is poured in the area between the flagpole and the ground sleeve. The sand insures that the flagpole is level and provides a little give for high winds.
Step 5:
Proudly hoist an American made US flag, State flag, or a personalized custom made flag.
