Frequently asked questions

Do I need a permit to build a fence near Richmond?

Often yes, depending on the City of Richmond, Henrico, Chesterfield or Hanover, plus the fence height and location. Check with your permit office and HOA. Your contractor may handle the permit, so ask.

How much does a fence cost?

It depends on material, height, length, gates, slope and removal of an old fence. We do not set prices. Request written estimates from more than one contractor.

What fence material suits Richmond clay soil?

Any material can work if the posts are set deep enough with good drainage. Vinyl and aluminum shrug off moisture, and wood needs well-set, protected posts.

Who finds my property line?

You do. Use your plat or a surveyor. A fence contractor builds where you tell them.

Are you a fence company?

No. We are a free quote-request service. We try to match you with a local fence contractor, and contact is not guaranteed.
