Fencing in Lombard (60148)

Lombard's residential character centers on single-family homes with defined lot lines and mature trees. Many properties feature the classic post-war and 1970s setbacks that create generous side yards and back yards, making them ideal for privacy fencing, pool barriers, and decorative gates. The flat terrain means post installation is straightforward, though utility locates (811 calls) are always required before digging, and local setback rules, height limits, and HOA architectural standards vary across the village and often govern material, color, and design.

Our crews are experienced in wood privacy fence, vinyl and PVC fencing, chain link, aluminum and ornamental iron, pool fencing, and gate systems. We've been serving Lombard homeowners and property managers for over a decade, handling everything from routine repairs to full fence replacement and removal. We work from your existing survey and install on the fence line you identify, always respecting local code and your HOA requirements.

How a Fence Job Works in Lombard

Step 1: Call us at (872) 259-5832 or reach out online for a free on-site assessment. We'll walk your property, discuss your goals (privacy, security, pool barrier, curb appeal), review your budget, and explain what's possible within Lombard's setback and height rules. If an HOA applies to your property, we'll help you understand what approval or design standards you need to meet.

Step 2: We provide a clear, written estimate. If you're considering repair versus replacement, we'll tell you honestly which makes sense. For new installation, we handle the 811 utility locate, set posts in concrete on proper spacing, install rails and pickets (or chain link mesh and tension bands) to spec, and add gates and hardware as needed. Our crews do the work; you're not dealing with a third party. For vinyl and wood, we work with quality materials and finish trim and cap to last. For ornamental metal and chain link, we ensure proper gauge, mesh size, and anti-sag bracing.

Step 3: We clean up thoroughly, haul away debris, and walk the fence line with you to confirm everything meets your expectations. Your property is left clean and ready.

Fence pricing in Lombard depends on material, length, post spacing, site access, and whether you're installing new or replacing existing fence. Wood privacy fence typically runs from $32 per linear foot; vinyl and PVC from $44 per linear foot; chain link from $18 per linear foot; and ornamental metal and aluminum from $48 per linear foot. Repairs start at $525, gate installation and repair from $550, and full fence replacement and removal from $2,900. Automatic and driveway gates begin at $3,400. Pool fencing is installed to meet local pool barrier codes and starts at $39 per linear foot. For storm damage assessment, we provide a free evaluation and can help you document damage for an insurance claim. Call (872) 259-5832 for a free estimate tailored to your property and project scope.

What fence materials work best for Lombard's residential lots?

Lombard's mature, flat properties favor wood and vinyl privacy fencing for rear yards and side lots, where they define boundaries and provide screening. Chain link is popular for utility areas and pet containment. Ornamental iron and aluminum work well for front-facing decorative applications and gates. We help you pick the right material based on your privacy needs, maintenance tolerance, and HOA restrictions if they apply to your neighborhood.

Do I need a permit to install a fence in Lombard?

Permit requirements vary within Lombard and depend on fence height, material, and setback from the property line. The Lombard Building Department sets those rules, and we recommend checking with them before you plan your project. If your property is part of a master-planned community or HOA, you'll also need to confirm architectural approval. We work from your existing survey and install on the line you identify, and we always coordinate with local code.

My fence is leaning and starting to sag. Should I repair it or replace it?

A leaning fence usually means posts are settling, rotting at the ground line due to moisture, or losing concrete footing. We assess the damage on-site and tell you honestly whether repair (post replacement, re-bracing, or concrete re-setting) will hold or whether the fence has reached the end of its life. A single bad post can often be replaced for $525 or more, depending on the fence type. If multiple posts are failing or the entire run is compromised, replacement is the better spend. We never oversell a replacement you don't need.

What happens if a storm brings down my fence?

Storm damage to fencing is common in the Chicago area. We provide a free damage assessment and can help you document the damage with photos and a written report for your insurance claim. We'll explain what happened, what it will cost to repair or replace, and what your next steps are. We do not promise or imply that your claim will be approved or that work will be covered by insurance. Call (872) 259-5832 to schedule an assessment.

I need a pool fence for my Lombard home. What are the code requirements?

Illinois state law and local code set specific pool barrier requirements, including fence height, mesh size, gate hardware, and spacing. Pool fencing is installed to meet those local pool barrier codes, with final determination resting with the authority having jurisdiction (typically the Lombard Building Department). We recommend confirming exact code with the city before you order materials. A fence alone does not replace supervision; it is a safety barrier.

Can you install an automatic driveway gate at my Lombard property?

Yes. We install automatic and driveway gates starting at $3,400, depending on gate width, operator type (cantilever versus V-track), and control options. We handle the full installation, including the gate operator and hardware. Automatic gates are popular in Lombard for security and convenience. We'll discuss your driveway layout, utility clearance, and any HOA restrictions on gate style or appearance.

Is Chicago Fence Pros fully insured?

Yes. We are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. Our crews are AFA Member Installers, and we carry the insurance and credentials required to work on residential and commercial properties across Lombard and the Chicago area. You can work with confidence that we're protected and professional.
