Fence or No Fence?

We're just as excited about the thought of a new fence as the next guy, but before you start digging holes, let’s talk about property lines. Understanding where your property ends and your neighbor's begins is crucial to avoid any potential "issues".

Property Line Basics

The most accurate way to determine your property line is through a professional survey. This involves a licensed surveyor marking your property boundaries. You might already have this information if you recent built, renovated, or requested them for another project. You can also look at your property deed, but it might not be detailed enough to pinpoint exact bound

Fence Regulations

Once you’ve established your property line, you’ll need to consider local fencing regulations. If you have an HOA, check with them first. Regulations vary from place to place and you want to be sure you aren't unintentionally breaking the rules. Some common regulations we often see are:

• Fence Height: Restrictions on how tall your fence can be.

• Fence Material: Limitations on the type of fencing allowed.

• Setbacks: How far back from the property line your fence must be.

• Permits: Whether you need a permit for fence installation.
