Serving Alsip Neighborhoods
We serve Alsip neighborhoods near the Metra Station, around Lake Katherine Nature Center, and throughout the residential streets off Cicero Avenue.
Know the corner of 115th and Pulaski? We’ve built fences there. The subdivisions near Alsip Community Park? We work there regularly. The homes along 127th Street? Yep, those too.
Alsip sits right between Oak Lawn and Blue Island. We know the soil here (clay-heavy, needs proper post setting). We know the weather (harsh winters require quality materials). We know the Village requirements (permits, setbacks, height restrictions).
Local knowledge matters when you’re installing something that needs to last 20 years.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to install a fence in Alsip?
Yes, most residential fences require a permit from the Village of Alsip Building Department. The Village has specific rules about fence height, placement, and materials.
Corner lots have different requirements than interior lots. Fences near sidewalks or streets need to meet visibility standards.
We handle the entire permit process for you. We prepare the site plan, submit the application, and coordinate with the Building Department. You don’t need to visit Village Hall or figure out the paperwork.
How long does fence installation take in Alsip?
Most residential fence installations take 1-3 days depending on the size and complexity. A simple backyard privacy fence might take one day. A fence that wraps around your entire property could take three days.
Weather affects timing. We don’t install fences in heavy rain or when the ground is frozen solid. Illinois weather can be unpredictable, so we build buffer time into our schedule.
The permit approval process adds 1-2 weeks before installation begins. We factor this into your timeline from day one.
What’s the best fence material for Alsip weather?
Illinois weather is brutal on fences. Harsh winters, hot summers, and constant freeze-thaw cycles test every material.
Vinyl holds up best with zero maintenance. It won’t rot, warp, or need painting. Cedar wood is naturally rot-resistant and looks beautiful but requires staining every few years. Aluminum never rusts and works great for decorative applications.
Chain link is the most budget-friendly option and lasts decades with minimal care.
We’ll recommend the best material based on your needs, budget, and how much maintenance you want to do.
Can you match my existing fence style?
Yes. We can match wood species, picket spacing, post caps, and overall design. Bring us photos or have us look at your current fence during the consultation.
Keep in mind that new materials won’t perfectly match weathered ones right away. Wood fences age and change color over time. We can stain new sections to blend better with existing fence sections.
Do you remove old fences?
Yes. We remove your old fence, pull out the posts, and haul everything away. This is included in most installation quotes.
If your old fence is still in decent shape, we can discuss repair options instead of full replacement. Sometimes fixing a few sections costs less than starting over.
How deep do fence posts need to be in Alsip?
Posts need to go at least 30 inches deep in Alsip. Clay soil and freeze-thaw cycles require deeper post setting than sandy soil areas.
We dig below the frost line and use concrete to anchor posts properly. Shallow posts shift and cause fence failure within a few years.
Can I install a fence on my property line?
Maybe. Alsip has setback requirements that vary by location. Corner lots have stricter rules than interior lots. You need to know exactly where your property line sits before installing anything.
We recommend a property survey if you’re unsure about boundaries. Installing a fence on your neighbor’s property creates legal problems and expensive removal costs.
We’ll review your property during consultation and flag any potential boundary issues.
