FAQ

Questions about fencing

What types of fences do you install, and which is best for privacy?
We install wood and cedar, vinyl/PVC, chain-link, and ornamental/aluminum fencing, plus gates. For privacy, a solid cedar or vinyl board fence is the usual choice. Vinyl costs more up front but never needs staining, while cedar is budget-friendly and can be left natural or finished.
What does fence installation cost in Nanaimo?
Cost depends on the fence type and height, the length of the run, the terrain (slopes and rocky ground take more post work), and the number of gates. Chain-link is typically the most economical; cedar and vinyl privacy fences cost more. We give you a clear, itemized quote after a free site visit.
Do I need a permit, and are there height rules for fences?
Most residential fences do not need a building permit, but the City of Nanaimo and other local jurisdictions set maximum heights (often lower in front yards) and rules near corners and driveways for sightlines. We build to the local bylaws and help you confirm what is allowed.
How long does a fence take to install?
A typical residential fence is a one-to-few-day job once materials are on site and locates are done, depending on length, terrain, and the number of gates. We give you a realistic timeline with your quote.
Do you install gates and do commercial fencing?
Yes. We install swing and sliding gates and handle both residential and commercial fencing, including security and chain-link fencing for businesses, lots, and job sites.
