How do I know you received my order?
 

We will email you a confirmation email when you place your order and a confirmation email after the task has been reported complete.​
 

I have something special that I want to tell you about the order. How do I do that?
 

Please enter any special instructions under the "ADD INSTRUCTIONS" field at the bottom of the cart page. Please also indicate if your sign is in storage with us, and if you need us to install your sign for you.

Please remember also that Statutory Holidays do not count as business days.
 

Is there any reason that my post-sign would not go up within those two days?
 

Almost all of the orders we receive are completed within the time frame specified. However, there are some things that can delay a request. Providing us with incorrect information, or going outside of your regular service area (20 miles or more) are two reasons. Severely inclement weather is another.

​

My homeowners only want the service done on a certain day. Can you do that?
 

We always try to comply with our customers request, but we cannot guarantee service on any particular day.

​

The homeowner wants you to call before you come. Can you do that?

​

Our policy is to request all communication remain strictly between the agent and the homeowner. Please inform them that we will service the task during the two business days after you request it.

​

We've changed our mind and want to cancel the request. Can we stop the order?
 

We will do our best to contact the installer, but please have a contingency planned in case we cannot reach them. Even with modern conveniences such as pagers, cellular phones, and computers, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to stop them. Explain to the homeowner to keep watch for the installer. Our installers are always directed to follow the homeowners request, and if the homeowner chooses to cancel the request on site, our installers will be happy to comply. If we are able to contact the installer prior to arriving at the property, there will be no charge.

​

I have a "lot for sale", or a particular spot in the yard (because of a flower bed/underground sprinkler/invisible dog fence/etc.), where I and the property owner want the post-sign to go. I would like to meet you there to show you. How can I schedule that.
 

Due to the high volume of post-signs we install on any given day, it is not possible to meet our customers at the site at a particular time. The best way to insure we place the post where you would like it, is to place a marker.

We suggest:
 

1. Stakes with ribbons.
2. Metal frames or directional arrows.
3. Yellow marker flags that we sell at a nominal cost.
--Check in your office, they may have some already!
 

We require that you place a marker for properties that have underground sprinklers, invisible dog fences, etc. If we get to the property and no marker is present, we will not install the post. A service call charge will apply for us to go back when the marker has been placed. Also, if you fail to inform us that the property has an underground sprinkler, invisible dog fence, etc., we will not be responsible for any damages.
If we are told to look for a marker on a property without special circumstances, and there is no marker present, our installer will use their best judgment. We do this to avoid delay and to save you the cost of a service call. If you dislike the location, there will be a service call charge to move it.

​

The homeowner said that the "sign" I asked you to remove is still at the property. What happened?
 

Many times, agents forget to go back by the property and pick up the riders, directional arrows, or metal frames you were using to supplement the post-sign. The other possibility is that the homeowner pulled up the post-sign and placed it in the garage, shed, or other inaccessible place, and we were not able to retrieve it. There is a charge to go back to retrieve it.

​

I don't like where you installed the post-sign, and want it moved. Is there a charge for that?
 

We will place the post anywhere you like on the property as long as it is safe and legal, and you inform us where you would like it using the "ADD INSTRUCTIONS" field on your order page. If you choose, however, to allow us to use our best judgment, and then disagree with our selection, there is a service call charge to go back and move it.

​

The post/sign is not looking very good and I want you to reinstall it. Is there a charge for that?

​

We guarantee our workmanship and materials for 30 days from the date the post-sign was installed, and we will service the post free of charge within that time period.
If the post has been up for longer than 30 days, there is a service call charge to reinstall it.

​

The post/sign was stolen or damaged and I want you to reinstall it. Is there a charge for that?
 

Yes, any service requests due to vandalism, car damage or other causes are chargeable.

​​

Am I purchasing or renting the post?

 

You are essentially renting the post from us. All posts provided by Post Install Pros are and remain the property of Post Install Pros. Some agents provide their own posts and we provide the installation service. Our policies apply only to posts owned by Post Install Pros.

​

Why am I receiving an email about a post renewal fee?
 

On March 10th 2026 we advised all of our clients of a policy that would take effect April 1st, 2026.

This policy is that any post still installed in the ground after 90 days of the initial installation, would be subject to a small monthly fee either until the property is sold, or the agent requests the post be removed. Any clients who had posts installed prior to April 1st 2026, were given a 15 day grace period where renewals would not start until April 15th 2026. 

For the first few years of our business we have not charged any renewal fees as a courtesy gesture to our clients however as we come into our 3rd year we have found that we have some posts out in circulation for over a year at times and we need to ensure we can support a continued inventory rotation and provide reliable access to our products for all clients as well as ensure we can continue to cover our operational costs. 

​

If you do not wish to pay the renewal fees on your installations over 90 days old we can certainly remove the posts immediately. Renewal fees that are unpaid will result in the immediate removal of the post(s).
