Residential Fence Contractors in Ellicott City

There are a few things to consider when designing a fence for your home. Most fences are built for a purpose. Whether it is for pet containment, privacy, security, or just a backdrop for landscaping, remember, it’s not just a fence; it is an extension of your home. So when you are looking at different fencing options, whether it is Wood fencing, Ornamental aluminum/steal fencing, or one of the more popular low-maintenance vinyl fences, make sure it adds a little character and charm and meets its designated purpose. 

Fence Styles for Your Home

Wood Fencing

Mid Atlantic Deck and Fence offers many different styles of standard wood fencing and custom-built fences. Two species of lumber are typically used to construct your new wood fence: pressure-treated southern yellow pine and western red cedar. Both are great products when used in wood fence applications. Both species of lumber will require periodic maintenance, but with a little elbow grease, your new wood fence will stay looking great for many years to come.

Aluminum & Steel Fencing

An ornamental aluminum/steel fence is one of the best ways to provide security and elegance to your property without the maintenance of traditional wrought iron fencing. If you really want to make your new ornamental fence a showpiece for your home, add some brick pillars, a couple of stone columns, or even an arched top gate or two.

Mid-Atlantic Deck and Fence’s ornamental aluminum and steel fencing is becoming one of the most popular fences we install. They are very low maintenance, extremely durable, and work well with your landscaping. They also have the best manufacturer warranties, and we offer a lifetime workmanship warranty for as long as you own your home.

Vinyl Fencing

Thanks to our computerized CNC routing machines, we can offer thousands of different styles and various colors of vinyl fencing, which will make your new custom-built vinyl fence the talk of the neighborhood. A lifetime manufacturer warranty backs all of our vinyl fences. Mid Atlantic’s commitment to the quality of our vinyl fencing and to our customers assures you that you get the best quality vinyl fence on the market today.

Fence Installation FAQs

How close to the property line can I place my fence?

Fencing can be placed up to but not over or on the property line. We like to stay about 6″ off the property line just to ensure the fence has been installed within your property boundaries and that there are no issues with the fence if you decide to sell your home. It’s better to be safe than sorry.

What do I need to get a permit for my project?

Generally, you need a copy of your property plat that clearly shows the house and its location in conjunction with the property lines. Indicate on the plat where the new fence will be on the property. You will also be required to fill out the permit application, and a county fee is involved. We can obtain the county permit for you at your request for an additional cost.

Do I have any other options besides wood fencing for my home?

Yes! If you like the wrought iron look without the required maintenance, we suggest using aluminum or steel fencing. These fencing options are offered in many styles and colors and add an elegant look to any property. Plus, the painting technology available today makes these products virtually maintenance-free. 

Vinyl fencing has become one of the most widely used materials for today’s fencing needs. We offer over 300 styles. In most cases, we can duplicate anything you see built out of wood and build it out of vinyl. We offer 4 color options for vinyl fencing (white, sand, tan, and khaki). You can mix and match colors and custom design the fence exactly how you want it. We strongly recommend stopping by our office to see it for yourself.
