Wilmington properties range from historic downtown homes on tight lots to sprawling waterfront estates on the Intracoastal Waterway. Each presents different fencing challenges. Downtown lots need fences that maximize a small backyard while meeting historic district guidelines. Suburban neighborhoods like Ogden, Porters Neck, and Monkey Junction need fences that work within HOA rules. Waterfront properties need materials that survive salt air and direct storm exposure.

The most common requests we get in Wilmington are backyard privacy fencing, pool enclosures, and decorative aluminum for front yards. Wood privacy fencing dominates the residential market, with vinyl gaining popularity in newer subdivisions where low maintenance is a priority. Aluminum pool fencing is required for any property with a pool, and we install code-compliant barriers that pass inspection the first time.
