Fence Installation FAQ for Raleigh Homeowners

How often should Raleigh homeowners get fence installation?
Given Raleigh's hot, humid summers averaging 89°f with afternoon thunderstorms, most homeowners benefit from fence installation at least once a year. Spring and summer red clay stain removal often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Raleigh most need fence installation?
Brick and fiber cement ranch homes throughout Wake County and New construction Craftsman and farmhouse-style in Johnston County are the most common home types in Raleigh and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Do I need a permit to install a fence?
Most municipalities require permits for fence installation. Requirements vary by height, material, and location. We handle permit applications as part of our standard process.
How deep should fence posts be set?
A general rule is one-third of the total post length, with a minimum of 2 feet for most residential fences. Posts in soft soil, high-wind areas, or supporting gates should go deeper.

Vinyl and aluminum fences have the lowest maintenance and can last 30+ years. Cedar and redwood last 15–20 years with proper treatment. Pressure-treated pine is the most affordable wood option at 10–15 years.
How long does fence installation take?
Most residential fence projects take 1–3 days depending on linear footage, terrain, and material. Gates and complex corners add time.
