What Our Customers Say

Our old fence was leaning into the neighbor's yard. They gave us a clear written quote, showed up on the day they said, and the new cedar fence went up in two days. They even raked up the sawdust.
Megan R.
Cedar fence replacement
They explained the corner-lot height rules before we asked and designed around them. Very professional.
Rosa M.
Corner lot fence
They hauled away our old 30-year fence the same day and built the new one right after. Not a nail left in the grass.

Fencing a Compact Hillsboro Lot?

Two in three Hillsboro homes are from 1990 or later, so most new fences here go on compact lots where one line touches several neighbors and an HOA has a say in the look.

Hillsboro keeps its fence rules in its own Community Development Code. Section 12.50.250 sets the height for fences and walls in residential zones, at about 6 feet, and section 12.50.260 deals with where they can go. The city also has approval criteria for fences in section 12.80.060. We read those against your lot before the estimate, so the layout on paper is one the city will accept.

The lots themselves shape the job. In Orenco, Reed's Crossing or South Hillsboro, a backyard can be narrow, with one fence line shared by the yard behind and the yards on each side. A fence installation there is mostly about corners: agreeing where each neighbor's line meets yours, setting a solid corner post, and keeping heights even so the run reads as one fence.

HOAs are common on these streets, and many set the style and stain color. Horizontal cedar, good-neighbor wood and vinyl all show up. Send us your guidelines and we'll draw the fence to match.

What Affects the Cost of Fence Installation in Hillsboro

These points decide the size of a Hillsboro fence installation.

  • Shared corners

    Tying into neighbors' fences can mean extra corner and end posts.

  • Material

    Cedar, horizontal wood, vinyl and chain link differ in material and labor.

  • Style rules

    HOA-required caps, trim or good-neighbor designs use more lumber.

  • Gates

    Each gate adds a heavier post, framing and hardware.

  • Access

    Narrow side yards on small lots mean more carrying by hand.

Hillsboro Fence Installation Questions

Which part of Hillsboro's code covers fences?
Section 12.50.250 of the Community Development Code sets fence height in residential zones, 12.50.260 covers location, and 12.80.060 sets the city's approval criteria for fences.
Is a 6-foot wood fence in Hillsboro under building review?
No. A wood fence of 7 feet or less sits outside Oregon's residential building code. Hillsboro's own Community Development Code still governs its height and location.
Three neighbors share my back fence. How does that work?
We agree the corners and heights with everyone first, then build so the line looks like one fence. Each household can get its own copy of the estimate.
Can you build to my Hillsboro HOA's design?
Yes. Send the guidelines and we'll match style, height and color, or give you a drawing to submit for approval.
