Lemont Fence Questions
Do I need a permit to install a fence in Lemont?
Yes. The Village of Lemont requires permits for most residential fences. Rules cover fence height, placement, and materials.
Corner lots face different requirements than interior lots. Fences near sidewalks or streets must meet visibility standards.
We handle the entire permit process. We prepare the site plan, submit the application, and coordinate with the Building Department. You don’t need to visit Village Hall.
How long does fence installation take in Lemont?
Most residential fences take 1-3 days to install. A simple backyard privacy fence might take one day. A fence wrapping your entire property could take three days.
Weather affects timing. We don’t install fences in heavy rain or frozen ground. Illinois weather is unpredictable, so we build buffer time into schedules.
Permit approval adds 1-2 weeks before installation starts. We factor this into your timeline from day one.
What fence material works best in Lemont weather?
Illinois weather tests every material. Harsh winters, hot summers, constant freeze-thaw cycles.
Vinyl holds up best with zero maintenance. It won’t rot, warp, or need painting. Cedar wood resists rot naturally and looks beautiful but needs 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 maintenance preferences.
Can you match my existing fence style?
Yes. We can match wood species, picket spacing, post caps, and overall design. Bring photos or have us look at your current fence during consultation.
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 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 Lemont?
Posts need to go at least 30 inches deep in Lemont. 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. Lemont 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.
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.
