Fencing help in Middletown
Middletown is one of the larger places we serve. Yards range from small city lots near downtown to bigger properties out toward Westfield and South Farms, so the right fence changes from street to street.
Owner Alexander Medina has more than 25 years of hands-on experience, and he is on the job himself. Every post is set in concrete below the 42-inch frost line, so the fence stays straight through freeze and thaw.

Local rules
Middletown fence rules
Rules last checked October 2026. We confirm them with the city before we build.
Front yard: up to 2½ ft
The zoning code limits a fence along the front or sides of a front yard to 2½ feet.
Sides and rear: up to 6 ft
Fences up to 6 feet may go along the rear line and along side lines behind the front building line.
Permits
No building permit for a fence 7 feet or under. Land Use Department approval may still be needed, so we check first.
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
Middletown fencing questions
Do I need a permit for a fence in Middletown?
The city’s Building Division says a fence 7 feet high or less needs no building permit, though Land Use Department approval may still be required. Zoning limits fences to 2½ feet along a front yard and 6 feet along side and rear lines. We check the rules for your address before we build.
Do you give free estimates in Middletown?
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 Middletown?
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.
