Installation, Repairs & Gates
Improve the Fence You Live With
Start with the part of the property that is causing a problem, then consider how the surrounding fence should connect.
New Privacy Fencing
A full wood installation lets you rethink the boundary around a patio or backyard. Include the view from your windows, the entrances you use and access for future yard work.
Gates Where You Need Access
Plan an opening for the things that actually move through the yard. A walking route, mower entrance and driveway each call for a different discussion about placement and clear space.
Before Choosing a Fence
Plan the Boundary and the Way Through
Leave Room for Alley Access
Longview’s fence handout specifically addresses access through fences beside alleys. If your property has an alley connection, include that opening in the layout from the beginning. Think through the route from the house to the alley and what you need to carry or roll through it. An otherwise useful privacy fence can become inconvenient when an everyday exit is overlooked.
Check the Fence Route Before Setting Posts
The city also identifies easements and drainage-district ditches as issues to resolve before construction. Gather any property documents that show access or utility easements, and point out drainage features along the proposed line. Ask the city which approvals apply to that route. This helps you discuss a realistic layout instead of choosing a fence style around space that may need to remain accessible.
