Why Westerville Homeowners Choose Fence Boys

Clay Composition Authorities

We adjust our boundary construction methods for Westerville's significant clay component soils (20-30% clay content), preventing the shifting that affects standard installations during freeze-thaw cycles.

Limestone Fragment Navigation

Our excavation techniques account for Westerville's glacial till soil containing limestone fragments, ensuring proper post depth despite challenging digging conditions.

Historic District Harmony

We understand Westerville's nationally recognized Uptown and Temperance Row Historic Districts, creating perimeters that complement the architectural heritage dating back to the early 1800s.

Root System Protection

Our installation practices work around Westerville's mature tree canopy, preserving extensive root networks while establishing secure property dividers.

Local Temperance Heritage

We appreciate Westerville's unique history as "The Dry Capital of the World" and design borders that respect the community's distinctive character from historic areas to newer neighborhoods.

Permit Process:

  • Applications processed through Department of Planning and Development

Height Restrictions:

  • Maximum height: 6 feet in any residential district
  • Between street right-of-way and building setback lines: Maximum 30 inches (2.5 feet)

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.
