Rolling Meadows FAQ
Everything you need to know about permits, codes, and installation in the City.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Rolling Meadows?
Yes. The City Of Rolling Meadows requires a building permit for all new and replacement fences. We handle the digital submittal process for our clients, ensuring your Plat of Survey is correctly marked to meet city standards.
What is the maximum fence height allowed in Rolling Meadows?
For residential properties, the City of Rolling Meadows allows a maximum fence height of 6 feet in backyards. If you are planning a fence for a front yard or a corner side yard, the regulations are much stricter (typically capped at 3 feet and requiring specific transparency). We ensure every design stays within these limits to avoid any issues with city inspectors.
How deep do you dig your post holes?
To combat the harsh Illinois freeze-thaw cycles, we dig all structural posts to a minimum depth of 36 inches. This meets the Rolling Meadows "frost line" requirement, preventing your fence from "heaving" or leaning as the ground shifts in the winter. We also handle the required post-hole inspection before we pour any concrete.
Does my fence have to face a certain way?
Yes. Rolling Meadows enforces a "finished side out" ordinance. This means the "good" side of the fence (the side without the visible posts and rails) must face your neighbors and the public street. Our signature board-by-board builds are designed specifically to meet this requirement while maintaining a clean look on both sides.
