What we build
Every fence, built the same careful way
Nine kinds of fencing for homes and businesses across Central Connecticut — every post set by hand, below the frost line.
Wood fences
Cedar and pressure-treated pine, built by hand for warmth and privacy.
Vinyl fences
Clean privacy with almost no upkeep. Never needs paint or stain.
Chain link fences
The strong, affordable way to fence a yard, keep pets in or secure a lot.
Aluminum & ornamental
The look of wrought iron without the rust. Great for curb appeal.
Privacy fences
Block the view, cut the noise and make the backyard yours again.
Pool fences
Code-correct pool barriers with self-closing, self-latching gates.
Gates
Walk and drive gates hung to swing true and latch every time.
Fence repair
Leaning posts, broken boards, a gate that won’t latch — fixed right.
Commercial fencing
Secure, durable fencing for businesses, lots and properties.
FAQ
Farmington fencing questions
Do I need a permit for a fence in Farmington?
Farmington asks you to file a Fence Registration Form, with a map showing the fence, with the Zoning Enforcement Officer. Fences in a required yard along a street are limited to 4 feet, and fences in a historic district need Historic District Commission approval. We help you check the rules for your address before we build.
Do you give free estimates in Farmington?
Yes. Estimates are free and there is no pressure. Call or send a message and we will come look at your yard, talk through your options, and give you an honest price in writing.
How deep do you set fence posts in Farmington?
We set posts below the Connecticut frost line, about 42 inches down, in concrete. That is the step that keeps a fence from leaning after the freeze-and-thaw of our winters.
Do you repair fences you did not build?
Yes. We repair fences of every kind no matter who installed them, from leaning posts and broken boards to gates that will not latch.
