Local Tip: Permits & Rules
Wilmington has its own fence permit process separate from New Castle County — permits go through the Licenses & Inspections Department. Historic districts (including parts of Trolley Square and the Riverfront) require Historic Preservation Commission review, which adds time. Submit early and expect stricter enforcement on materials and style.
Fencing in Wilmington: What to Know
Wilmington is Delaware's largest city, but residential fencing here spans everything from city rowhomes in Trolley Square and the Riverfront to suburban lots in north Wilmington's Brandywine Hundred and west-side communities like Elsmere and Richardson Park.
City lots call for creative solutions — ornamental aluminum fits the tighter setbacks of older neighborhoods, while wood privacy screens alley views and creates backyard sanctuaries. In Brandywine Hundred, full perimeter wood and vinyl are the standard. Chain link is common for commercial and industrial properties around the port.
Wilmington's soil runs the gamut. The city proper has fill and clay; Brandywine Hundred has more Piedmont rock and clay. We use heavier equipment when needed and always sink posts in concrete below the frost line.
Wilmington Fence Questions, Answered
Do you work in Wilmington city limits?
Yes — we do residential, commercial, and industrial fencing in every part of Wilmington. City permits are different from county permits, so we'll help you figure out what you need.
What fence works best for a small city lot?
Ornamental aluminum gives you a clean boundary without making the yard feel boxed in. For privacy on a tight lot, a 6-foot wood fence with a good stain does the job without overwhelming the space.
How do you handle old fence removal in the city?
We handle the full tear-out and disposal of your old fence before we start the new one. If there's concrete from old posts, we break it out and haul it away.
Do you do commercial fencing in Wilmington?
Yes — chain link, security gates, and commercial-grade ornamental aluminum for business properties, parking lots, and industrial sites around the port and along Route 13.
