Fencing questions homeowners ask

Do I need a permit for a fence?

Many South Jersey towns require a permit or zoning approval for a new fence, with rules on height and placement. Your fence contractor should know your town's rules and can usually handle the paperwork.

Do I need to call 811 before installing a fence?

Yes. New Jersey law requires calling NJ One Call (811) before digging, including for fence posts, so underground utility lines can be marked. Most fence contractors make the call as part of the job.

Vinyl or wood: which fence is better?

Vinyl costs more upfront but needs almost no upkeep and won't rot. Wood costs less to install but needs staining or sealing every few years. Aluminum is a popular choice around pools.

What are the rules for a pool fence?

Pools need a barrier that meets building code requirements, including a minimum height and self-closing, self-latching gates. A fence contractor who does pool fences will know the requirements.
