Fence Installation & Repair services in Jamaica
Two kinds of ground meet in Jamaica. North of Hillside Avenue, Jamaica Estates and Jamaica Hills climb the glacial ridge that crosses the middle of Queens. Streets curve, yards slope, and digging turns up stones and tree roots, so fences there are often stepped or racked and holes take longer. South of the Long Island Rail Road the land flattens into sandy soil, with blocks of detached and semi-attached frame houses in South Jamaica, Hollis and St. Albans. Many of those houses share a driveway with the house next door, which leaves little space for a side fence and none for a gate that swings the wrong way. Downtown Jamaica adds stores, lots and bus depots that need chain link and steel. Tell us which part of Jamaica you are in and we will plan for that ground.

Permits and local rules
The Department of Buildings does not require a permit for a fence 6 feet or less at a one- or two-family house. Height is measured from the higher of the two grades beside the fence. Addisleigh Park in nearby St. Albans is a city historic district, and work there also needs approval from the Landmarks Preservation Commission.
