Our Services

Fence Installation

New fencing adds privacy, security, and curb appeal to homes in Newton's residential neighborhoods. We build durable fences from wood, vinyl, and chain-link—all compliant with local height rules (4 ft front, 6 ft back). Neighborhoods near downtown's Historic McKinley District have older homes with established gardens; newer subdivisions and country properties often need sturdy perimeter fencing.

  • Wood fencing: Classic choice in red-brick Newton homes
  • Vinyl & metal: Low maintenance, suited to humid Kansas summers
  • Privacy & picket designs: Varies by HOA guidelines and zoning

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for a new fence in Newton?

Yes. Newton requires permits for all projects over $1,000 (or $500 in materials for DIY). We handle the application process at the City of Newton Engineering Office on E 6th Street.

What is the height limit for fences in Newton?

Local rules typically limit front-yard fences to 4 feet and backyard fences to 6 feet. Corner lots have additional visibility restrictions. Your HOA may have stricter limits, which we verify before work begins.

What materials work best for Newton's climate?

Wood, vinyl, and metal all work in Newton's humid summers and mild winters. Wood fencing is traditional and attractive but needs regular maintenance. Vinyl and metal resist weather-related damage with less upkeep.

How do you handle utility lines and easements?

We call Kansas One Call (811) at least two business days before digging to mark underground lines. This ensures safe fence placement and prevents damage to electric, gas, water, and cable lines.

What if my fence is damaged from weather or age?

We assess damage, repair or replace sections, and treat wood to prevent future rot. Kansas humidity can cause wear; we use durable materials and finishes to extend fence and siding life.
