Fence Company Staten Island

Staten Island is the most suburban borough, and it fences like it: full perimeters around detached homes, pool enclosures, and long runs of vinyl privacy fencing in the island's newer developments. Bigger lots mean bigger fence jobs — and the island's wind exposure, especially on the south and east shores, means those fences need to be built for weather, not just looks.

Vinyl Country — and Why

No borough loves vinyl fencing like Staten Island. The island's post-war and newer subdivisions reward the clean, uniform look, and homeowners here would rather spend weekends at the shore than staining a fence. We install virgin-PVC, UV-stabilized vinyl with reinforced posts — the kind that still looks new after fifteen island winters. Cedar remains popular for a more natural look, especially in Todt Hill and the island's older sections, and ornamental iron fronts the island's nicer colonials and contemporaries.

Pools, Wind & Corner Lots

Staten Island has more residential pools than the other four boroughs combined, and every one of them needs a code-compliant barrier: 48-inch minimum height with self-closing, self-latching gates. We build pool enclosures to code as a matter of routine. Wind is the island's other signature challenge — open exposures in Tottenville, Annadale, and along Hylan Boulevard punish cheap fences. Our posts go deep in concrete, and we engineer solid-panel fences for the exposure instead of hoping for the best.

Corner lots are common in the island's grid neighborhoods, and the visibility rules at intersections apply here like everywhere else. We lay out the fence line around them during the free site visit.

Staten Island Zoning & Permit Basics

The citywide rules apply: 4-foot front-yard maximum in most residential districts, 6 feet on sides and rear, and fences under 8 feet generally do not need a DOB building permit. The island's special coastal and hillside areas can add requirements — we check the specifics of your lot before quoting. Our 2026 cost guide has realistic island pricing, and the FAQ page covers the questions we hear most.
