Why Plain City Homeowners Choose Fence Boys

Deep Soil Fence Experts

We adapt our fence installation for Plain City's deeply weathered soils that extend 10-12 inches, ensuring your fence remains stable through seasonal changes.

Watershed Protection

Our fence designs respect the Big & Little Darby Creek Watersheds managed by the Union Soil and Water Conservation District, maintaining proper drainage while securing your property.

Amish-Influenced Craftsmanship

We appreciate Plain City's unique Amish heritage that remained until 2011, crafting fences with attention to detail that honors the community's tradition of quality workmanship.

Corner Lot Navigation

We understand Plain City's regulations that classify corner lots as having two front yards, designing fences that maximize privacy while meeting all code requirements.

Local Fence Contractors

Our team recognizes Plain City's growth from historic village to expanding suburb, installing fences that complement everything from established properties to newer developments.

Plain City Fence Permit Requirements

Request a Quote

Plain City maintains specific fence regulations for residential properties:

Permit Process:

  • Applications processed through Village of Plain City Planning & Zoning Division
  • Required documentation includes site plans showing existing and proposed structures with dimensions and property line distances
  • Permits expire if work isn't begun within one year or substantially completed within 2.5 years

Height Restrictions:

  • Residential side and rear yards: Maximum 6 feet
  • Residential front yards: Maximum 3 feet with minimum 50% opacity
  • Corner lots: Have two effective front yards
  • Commercial side and rear yards: Maximum 8 feet

Material Restrictions:

  • Prohibited types: Barbed wire and similar sharp-pointed fences
  • Electric fences: Forbidden except on sites of more than 10 acres used to confine livestock
  • Finished side: All fences must present the finished non-structural face outward

Special Considerations:

  • No fence can encroach upon public rights-of-way or easements
  • No placement in platted no-build zones, conservation zones, floodways, floodplains, or drainage easements
  • All portions of property must remain accessible from outside the fence area through gates or openings
  • All fences on a parcel must have a unified style
  • Ground between fence and property line must be well maintained

The Fence Boys manage your entire Plain City fence project from permit application to final installation.

Amazing to work with! Very patient with all my questions and the crew showed up exactly when they said they would.

Amazing to work with! Very patient with all my questions and the crew showed up exactly when they said they would. Our backyard had this big slope but they made it work perfectly. the cedar fence looks incredible and neighbors have been asking who did it. 10/10 would recommend!

Cody was straight up honest from day one. crew was punctual (8am sharp every day), handled our tricky corner lot like pros

not gonna lie, was skeptical after getting f’d around by another company. but fence boys restored my faith in contractors! Cody was straight up honest from day one. crew was punctual (8am sharp every day), handled our tricky corner lot like pros, and the fence is solid as a rock. already told two neighbors about them.

Rosa

got quotes from 4 companies - I felt best about fence boys. Cody asked all the right questions and suggested safety features for our kids that I hadn't even thought of. when they hit an unmarked utility line they handled it professionally, no drama. aluminum fence is still perfect 6 months later. quality work.
