Fence installation & repair in Queens, built for New York winters and coastal weather.

Most installed fences cost $20 to $60 per foot in 2026 by national figures. City labor, the material, paved yards and access through the house move the price. Our fence cost guide lists prices by material.

Usually not. The NYC Department of Buildings does not require a permit for a fence 6 feet or less at a one- or two-family house. Front yards are limited to 4 feet, and landmark properties need Landmarks approval.

The work is usually 2 to 3 working days spread over about a week. Add time for the New York 811 notice, any board or Landmarks approval and scheduling.

The one who digs. When we build the fence, we contact New York 811 at least 2 working days before work starts.

Repair it when the damage is in one spot and the posts are solid. Replace it when the repair costs about half of a new fence or most posts have rotted or rusted.

In New York City the owner who wants the fence normally pays, unless the neighbors agree in writing to share. We know of no law here that forces a split.

The answer is according to the fencing project. Some fencing projects take longer to install compared to others. Fence installations that require deep digging as well as projects that cover a very wide area take a longer time of work. Upon consultation with our team, our experts will be estimating the time of completion, that is, outside of unprecedented events and occurrences. However, this estimated time is subject to variation especially because we uphold our satisfaction guarantee. Up until the point of your satisfaction, we will not declare the project completed. Other influential factors include holidays, and extreme weather conditions that do not allow for installation work. We prioritize our team’s safety greatly. For your project’s time estimate, please call us at 718-550-3411.

Yes, many areas in the United States have specific regulations. These regulations include fence dimensions and even fence material. It may differ from area to area, so we always recommend our clients to check with their local regulations. For the New York area, most of this information are accessible online through the Official Website Of The City Of New York. Our team makes sure not to take short cuts when it comes to our fencing work, so from securing the permit to working within the regulations are our top priority.

Yes, we would recommend informing your neighbors about the upcoming work in your yard. Some homeowner’s association guidelines even include informing your neighbors about the project in advance. Aside from the fact that this may be required, this is also considered common courtesy. There will be disturbance during the duration of our work in your area. Aside from the added noise, our equipment in the area may be considered dangerous elements especially for families with young kids and pets. Even if we proceed with utmost care, there will always be matters beyond our control. Surely, your neighbors will appreciate the extra effort you put into informing them, and they might do the same, comes the time they do get some work done in their spaces.

The answer to this question also varies according to the fence type and fence material as well. Average posts need at least a 3 to 4-foot deep hole for proper installation, but it is important to consider that taller fence heights and heavier material will be needing a more secure foundation. To know specific information like this, we would recommend that you get in touch with our team so that our experts would be the ones to estimate a proper depth that is best suited to the project that you have in mind. Please contact us through 718-550-3411 to book your free consultation slot.

Clients actually have the option to have the fence touch the ground or otherwise. The clients who request their fence installation not to touch the ground most likely do so for maintenance and durability purposes. Fences that do not touch the ground have greater chances against weathering from different weathering elements found in soil. Clients who choose securing their fences to the ground do so for privacy and fence stability. Having the fence attached to the ground does away with the open sightline making for better privacy as well as an added layer of stability since the fence material is reinforced to the ground.

Yes, it does affect the time duration of the installation process. When consulting with our team of experts, aside from costing estimate, they also provide you with an estimated time of fence completion. This estimate is affected by factors that are beyond our team’s control, and that includes weather. Extreme weather that does not make for suitable and safe working environment for our team will surely delay the project since we won’t be dispatching our team to the field if it so happens. We have a high regard for our team’s safety. In the event of cancelled work days, we will be in complete communication with you on the changes in the arrangement.

This depends on your fence installation type, area location, purpose and budget. We have offerings that are specific to the installation type. For example, backstop fences are only made of steel since the fence’s function is more on strength and protection (spectator safety). Some area locations also have more suitable materials. For example, vinyl fences and SimTek walls work well for areas with extreme weather conditions since these materials are engineered to withstand all weather conditions to an extreme level. Purpose also plays a part in material choice since we have fence installation offerings that are for specific functions (such as dog kennels). Lastly, budget is a very important factor to consider since some materials like steel are more expensive than others. To know more about our selection, visit our services page or give us a call at 718-550-3411.

This depends on the purpose you want your fence installation to serve. When clients go for taller heights, this is usually for privacy purposes. Sport areas are also known to have fences with tall heights to protect spectators as well as serve as a security feature to avoid trespassers from accessing the premises of the court. Residential areas that install fences for more decorative purposes as well as simply to mark their property lines, go for picket styled fences of the shorter height range. If you are unsure as to what height would best suit your project, give us a call at 718-550-3411 and talk to our experts!
