Fencing for Newton Homes
Family Yards and Pools
Newton families often want a fenced yard for kids and dogs and a safe enclosure around the pool. Pool barriers in Massachusetts must be at least 48 inches high with self-closing, self-latching gates.
Mature Trees and Large Lots
Large trees along Commonwealth Avenue and throughout the villages mean roots to plan around and limbs that can fall in a storm. We place posts carefully and recommend materials that are easy to repair.
Historic Villages
Newton has several local historic districts overseen by the Newton Historical Commission. A fence visible from the street in one of these districts may need approval before installation.

Fence height and placement are governed by Newton's zoning ordinance, with lower limits typically applying near the street. Work near ponds, streams and wetlands, such as areas near Crystal Lake, Hammond Pond or the Charles River, may involve the Conservation Commission. We check the requirements for your property and request Dig Safe markings before installation.
Choosing the Right Fence for Your Newton Home

| Corner lot | Lower fence near the street, privacy fence in the rear |
| Yard near a pond or wetland | Fence planned with Conservation Commission review |
Common Fence Projects in Newton
Pool Fences
Pool barriers in Massachusetts must be at least 48 inches high with gates that self-close and self-latch. We build Newton pool fences to meet those rules and the local inspector's requirements.
Replacing Storm-Damaged Fences
Mature trees are part of Newton's character, and falling limbs are a common cause of fence damage. We repair or rebuild damaged sections and match the existing fence when possible.
Corner Lots
Corner lots have more street frontage and often stricter rules near the street, partly to keep sight lines clear for drivers. We plan the layout to give you privacy where it is allowed.
