Older established neighborhoods where street-facing fence style carries real weight.

- 1 year warranty
- ZIP 02026
Dedham has genuine age to it, with a historic village centre, the Charles River along its edge and residential neighborhoods that have been established for well over a century. In the older parts of town, what a fence looks like from the street is not a minor consideration.
Traditional cedar picket and flat-board styles suit that architecture, kept lower at the front than the back. Elsewhere in town, particularly toward the newer commercial and residential development, the constraints ease and conventional vinyl privacy work is what people ask for.
What we plan for in Dedham
- Historic village character means street-facing style matters more in parts of town.
- The Charles River corridor brings wetland and conservation considerations.
- Mature landscaping on established lots constrains where posts can sensibly go.
- Older boundaries are often less clearly marked than in newer developments.

Permits in Dedham
Fence height limits, particularly for street-facing runs, are set by each municipality rather than statewide, so we will not quote you a figure we have not verified here. Check with the Town of Dedham Building Department before you order material. Attached decks almost always need a permit and at least one inspection, usually of the footings and framing before the decking goes down.

Fencing and decks in Dedham: your questions
What style suits an older Dedham home?
Cedar picket or a traditional flat-board profile generally sits best against the older architecture, kept lower at the street and taller only where you actually need privacy in the back. A tall solid panel across a historic frontage tends to look imposed rather than original, which is usually the thing people regret.
Is the Charles River a factor for my property?
Only if you are close to it, but if you are then it matters. River corridors and their associated wetland commonly fall under conservation commission jurisdiction, separate from any building permit. We raise it at the estimate if your fence line looks like it runs that way so you can check before committing.
Which parts of Dedham do you cover?
All of it. That includes Dedham Village, Oakdale, Riverdale, Precinct One and the rest of the town, across ZIP 02026. Dedham sits inside our 35 mile radius from Plymouth, along with the rest of Norfolk County.
What does a fence or deck cost in Dedham?
It depends on material, linear footage, height, terrain and how many gates you need, and on a typical lot here the run length is the main driver. Most of our residential projects land between $1,500 and $12,000. Estimates are free, quoted line by line, with no hidden fees.
Do I need a permit in Dedham?
Quite possibly, and the requirements are set locally rather than statewide. Attached decks almost always need a permit and an inspection, and fences above a certain height often do. Confirm with the Town of Dedham Building Department before you order material. We build to whatever they approve and will flag at the estimate what your project is likely to need.
Trusted across the South Shore
I was very impressed with the level of professionalism this company offers. Very polished from start to finish. I was kept up to date with everything that was going on during the project. Any questions I had were answered promptly. The fence installation was done in a timely manner. My home looks very beautiful outside because of the fence enhancement. The installation charges were very fair.
Working with Sandra could not have been easier. She and her team were extremely responsive, reasonably priced and did a great job repairing our fence. She went the extra mile for us and we were so impressed. Will absolutely do business with her again.
Very responsive and professional. They came out right away to fix my fence when no other fence company responded.
