Your local fence company in New Britain
Connecticut is hard on a fence. The ground freezes deep every winter, then thaws every spring, and that freeze-and-thaw cycle is what pushes a badly built fence into a lean.

Local rules
New Britain fence rules
We are confirming the city’s current fence schedule. Until then, we check the rules for your street before we build.
Being confirmed with the city
New Britain sets fence heights by zoning district and updated its fence rules in December 2024. We confirm the limits for your street before we build.
Fences over 6 feet
The city’s building fee page lists a certificate of approval for fences over 6 feet.
State rule
Under the state building code, a fence up to 7 feet needs no building permit unless it is a pool barrier. Town zoning still applies.
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
New Britain fencing questions
Do you give free estimates in New Britain?
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 New Britain?
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.
