Fence Installation for Seattle & the Eastside
A well-built fence provides privacy, security, and structure for your outdoor space. At Economy Landscaping LLC, we install high-quality fences for homes throughout Seattle, Bellevue, Redmond, Issaquah, Kirkland, and the surrounding Eastside. Whether you need a new boundary fence, a secure enclosure for pets, or an attractive backdrop for your landscaping, we build long-lasting fences using durable materials suited to the Pacific Northwest climate.
Our fences are designed to withstand Seattle’s rain, moisture, and variable temperatures. We use strong posts, corrosion-resistant fasteners, and rot-resistant materials so your fence performs well and looks great for many years.
Why Fencing Is Important for Your Property
Fences do more than mark property lines—they enhance privacy, improve safety, and increase curb appeal. Many Seattle neighborhoods have small lots or close neighbors, making fencing essential for creating comfortable outdoor living spaces. A professionally installed fence provides a clean visual boundary while also improving security for children and pets.
The right fence can also complement your yard design, working seamlessly with features such as paver patios, retaining walls and artificial grass.
Types of Fences We Install
We offer several fence styles to match the look and function of your outdoor space:
Cedar Privacy Fences
Cedar fences are ideal for homeowners seeking privacy and a natural look. Cedar naturally resists rot, insects, and moisture—making it perfect for the wet Seattle climate.
Horizontal & Modern Fences
For a modern architectural style, horizontal cedar or composite boards create a clean, contemporary appearance while still providing privacy and strength.
Hog Wire & Open-Frame Fences
These fences blend wood framing with welded wire panels for a stylish, open look. They work well for front yards, gardens, and areas where visibility is desired.
Chain-Link Fences
An affordable and durable option for pet areas, side yards, or property boundaries. We install galvanized or vinyl-coated chain-link fencing for added longevity.
Decorative & Custom Fencing
We can design custom fence layouts, including lattice tops, mixed-material designs, and decorative gates that complement your landscaping and home exterior.
Our Fence Installation Process
We follow a proven installation process to ensure strength, stability, and long-term performance:
1. Site Evaluation & Planning
We assess your property lines, slopes, drainage, soil conditions, and preferred fence style. If needed, we help coordinate survey or permit requirements.
2. Post Installation
Fence posts are set in concrete to the correct depth for Seattle’s rainy climate. Proper post installation is essential for preventing leaning or shifting over time.
3. Frame & Panel Construction
We install rot-resistant rails, boards, and panels using corrosion-resistant fasteners or hardware. All materials are cut, aligned, and secured with long-term durability in mind.
4. Gates, Hardware & Finish Details
We install custom gates with heavy-duty hinges and latches, ensuring smooth operation and long-term reliability. Optional staining or sealing can help extend the life of your fence.
5. Final Inspection & Cleanup
We complete a detailed walkthrough, check alignment and stability, test gate functionality, and leave your yard clean and ready to enjoy.

Fence Installation FAQs
What type of fence lasts the longest in Seattle’s climate?
Cedar fencing lasts the longest due to its natural resistance to moisture, insects, and decay. When paired with corrosion-resistant fasteners and properly set posts, cedar fences perform reliably in the Pacific Northwest’s wet weather.
Do fence posts need to be set in concrete?
Yes. Setting posts in concrete provides long-term strength, prevents leaning, and helps the fence withstand wind and seasonal soil movement. This is especially important in Seattle’s soft, rainy soil conditions.
How tall can a fence be?
Most Seattle-area cities allow fences up to 6 feet in residential backyards and up to 42 inches in front yards. Taller fences may require permits. We can help you understand the rules for your specific property.
Do I need a permit for fence installation?
Many standard fences do not require permits, but certain heights, locations, or specialty designs may. We’ll help determine whether permits or property surveys are needed before we begin work.
How long does fence installation take?
Most fence installations take 1–3 days depending on yard size, terrain, material type, and the number of gates. Larger or custom fences may require additional time for fabrication and detailing.
