Full Fence Replacement Services FAQs for Wilmington Homeowners
Do you recycle the old fence?
Yes. Most metal (chain link, aluminum) and clean wood is recycled where possible.
Can you reuse my old posts?
Old posts are often the weak point. We evaluate the existing layout and explain the recommended replacement approach for your property.
Will my yard be a mess?
Absolutely not. We leave our job sites cleaner than we found them. That is our standard.
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?
Yes, we are a fully licensed and active contractor in the State of Delaware. We carry comprehensive liability and workers' compensation insurance to protect our clients on every jobsite.
