Custom Fence Installation in Eden, NY
Search fence installation near me and you’ll find plenty of crews. Fewer of them set every post below the frost line the way we do. We lay out a new fence line in wood, vinyl, aluminum, or chain link, confirm the property line before anything gets dug, and build gates with hardware sized to their actual weight, so the line stays straight through year one and year ten.

Custom Fence Installation the Eden way
Eden sits in Buffalo’s Southtowns, ground zero for lake-effect snowbands off Erie, where a project built to the national minimum spec won’t last. That reality shapes how we approach custom fence installation here: frost-depth footings, snow-load framing, and flashed connections at every point that freeze and thaw can reach. We handle the permit process with your local building department from start to finish.

“Every post is still plumb after two winters. The gate still swings the way it did the day they hung it.”

FAQs
Do I need a permit for a fence?
Most WNY towns require one once a fence passes a certain height, and some have separate rules for corner lots and pool enclosures. We check your town’s code and file the paperwork before we set a single post.
Do fence posts really need to go below frost depth?
For anything permanent, yes. A post set shallow will heave with the freeze-thaw cycle and lean within a couple of winters. We set posts below the 48-inch frost line the same way we do for deck footings.
How do you handle property lines?
We ask for your survey if you have one, or help you get one if you don’t. Setting a fence even a few inches over a line is a common and avoidable dispute, so we confirm it before digging.
