Fence Installation & Repair services in Forest Hills
Ask who else has a say before you pick a fence in Forest Hills. Forest Hills Gardens is a private planned community with its own covenants and its own review of exterior changes, on top of city rules. The co-op and condo buildings along Queens Boulevard answer to their boards. In Cord Meyer and the streets toward Rego Park and Kew Gardens, where detached houses sit on larger lots, the city's height limits are the main rule. The ground matters as well. Forest Hills sits on the glacial ridge, so some yards slope and the soil holds stones. Old street and yard trees send roots along the lot lines, and we space posts to miss the big ones. Cedar, ornamental aluminum and steel suit the Tudor and brick houses here better than plain chain link.

Permits and local rules
City rules allow a fence up to 6 feet at a one- or two-family house without a Department of Buildings permit, and 4 feet in a front yard. Private covenants and co-op or condo rules can be stricter than the city. In Forest Hills Gardens, get the community's written approval before you order materials.
