Fencing help in Newington
Newington is a quiet, mostly residential town. Most people here own their homes, and most are single-family houses with a yard. A good fence adds privacy, keeps kids and pets safe, and marks where your property ends.
A lot of Newington homes date back to the 1960s, so many of the fences around town are old too. Wood posts rot, chain link starts to sag, and gates stop closing the way they should. We repair and replace worn-out fences.

FAQ
Newington fencing questions
Do I need a permit for a fence in Newington?
Newington asks homeowners to check with the town Zoning Officer before putting up a fence. They confirm the height limits and how far the fence must sit from your property line. We help you handle this step.
How deep should fence posts go in Newington?
In Connecticut, the frost line is 42 inches deep under the state building code. Fence posts should be set below that depth and packed in concrete. If posts are too shallow, the ground freezes in winter and lifts them.
Can I put my fence right on the property line in Newington?
Yes. Newington allows a fence to be placed at the property line. Fences may not exceed 4 feet in the front yard or 6 feet in side and rear yards. We confirm those rules with the town before your fence goes in.
