Fencing FAQ for EDISON PARK

Do I need a permit for a fence in Chicago? +

In the City of Chicago, a permit is not required if your fence is 5 feet tall or less. However, for standard 6-foot privacy fences, a permit is required through the Express Permit Program. We handle the technical side to ensure your installation meets all city ordinances.

Which way should the "good side" of the fence face? +

Chicago code requires that the "finished" or decorative side of the fence face outward toward your neighbors or the public way (streets and alleys). We ensure your fence is compliant while keeping the structural supports on your side of the property.

How deep do you set posts for Chicago soil? +

To withstand the lake-effect wind and heavy freeze-thaw cycles, we dig our posts 36-42 inches deep. This keeps your fence from "heaving" or leaning, even in the tighter soil conditions found in Northwood Park and Edison Park.

What if my property line is right against a public alley? +

When building along a Chicago alleyway, we use your Plat of Survey to ensure the fence is placed exactly on your property line. This prevents any future issues with the city regarding right-of-way or utility access.
