Ornamental Fences for Windsor homes

Windsor's mix of century homes, post-war bungalows and newer subdivisions means fences that run along alleys, narrow side yards and corner lots. Windsor's older homes in Walkerville and along the riverfront often call for a front-yard fence with some character. Black aluminum with spear or flat tops suits brick houses, and because Windsor limits front-yard fences to a lower height and keeps corner sightlines clear, an open picket design is often the most practical way to enclose a front yard.

What's included

Aluminum and steel ornamental fences with clean pickets and finials, for front yards, pools and properties that want security without hiding the view. Depending on your property, the work can include:

Aluminum or steel
Styles and tops
Pool-ready spacing
Racked on slopes
Matching gates
Posts in concrete
Site visit.
Written quote.
Posts and panels.
Gates and finish.

Local conditions in Windsor

Windsor's older lots are often narrow, with houses close to the side lot lines and alleys behind them, so fences need careful layout around meters, downspouts and garages. Mature trees mean roots to work around when digging, and heavy clay soil means posts need drainage and frost-resistant footings.

Questions to ask before you hire

Whoever you hire for ornamental fences in Windsor, get clear answers to these before signing:

Is the material aluminum or steel, and residential or commercial grade?
Will the panels be racked or stepped on my slope?
Does the design meet pool enclosure rules if I need it to?
What finish warranty does the manufacturer offer?

By-laws, permits and locates

Windsor's fence by-law allows fences up to 2.2 metres in side and rear yards, 1.2 metres in front yards, and up to 2.5 metres along an alley or public walkway, with a 0.9 metre limit inside the sight triangle at corner lots (open chain link or metal pickets can be taller there). Pool enclosures fall under a separate by-law and need a permit. Rules change, so we confirm current requirements for your address during planning, and utility locates are always requested before digging.
