Deer Fence Installation Pennsylvania FAQs for Wilmington Homeowners
How tall does a deer fence need to be?
A effective deer fence should be at least 7.5 to 8 feet tall. Pennsylvania deer are capable of jumping surprisingly high when motivated by food.
Is the fence visible from the house?
Our black high-tensile mesh is designed to be virtually invisible from just 20 feet away, preserving your scenic views.
Can deer get under the fence?
Not with our installation. We use ground stakes and tension cables at the base to ensure the perimeter is secure from top to bottom.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Wilmington, DE?
Most properties in the City of Wilmington and New Castle County require a permit for any fence over 6 feet in height or for installations on corner lots. We handle the permit application and ensure your design meets all local zoning and setback requirements.
What is the frost line depth for Delaware fence posts?
For the Wilmington area, the frost line is typically around 30 inches. We set our fence posts at a minimum depth of 36 inches—well below the frost line—to prevent the 'heaving' that often occurs in cheaper installations after a First State winter.
What are the common height limits for fences in New Castle County?
Residential properties in New Castle County usually allow up to 6-foot fences in side and rear yards. Front yard fences are typically limited to 4 feet and may require specific transparency (like aluminum). We verify the exact code for your address.
How long does a typical installation take in Northern Delaware?
A standard residential installation in Wilmington typically takes 2 to 3 business days. Our veteran crews work with extreme efficiency to respect your time and property.
Are you licensed and insured for the State of Delaware?
