Fence Installation Toronto | Expert Services by TheFixItGuys

There are specific rules related to the height, material, and placement of the fence that you must follow to avoid violating local bylaws.

Here are some important points to consider:

Height Restrictions:
Front yard fences: Maximum height of 1.2 meters (4 feet).
Back yard and side yard fences: Maximum height of 2.0 meters (6.5 feet).
Swimming Pool Fences:
If the fence is meant to enclose a swimming pool, a permit is required under Chapter 447, Article III, with specific height and gate requirements for safety.
Corner Lot Visibility:
Fences on corner lots may need to be lower or have visibility requirements to ensure drivers’ sightlines are not obstructed.
Material Restrictions:
Dangerous materials, like barbed wire or electrical fencing, are prohibited in residential areas.

While a standard residential fence usually does not require a permit, it is always a good idea to check with the city’s bylaw office or a professional contractor to ensure compliance, especially if your property has unique circumstances like a corner lot, shared boundaries, or height exceptions.

Onur and his team opened up our basement; and painted the whole house. They also did interlocking; landscaping and artificial grass in our yard. Beginning to end he was engaged; easy to reach and extremely professional. Work started on time and finished on time. TheFixitGuys are a hard working team and I would highly recommend them for any job big or small. We have already hired them for a few more projects around the house! 🏡

Very fair pricing with a fantastic finished product. Phil took great pride in his work and made sure I was satisfied with the project throughout the process. I've had multiple people ask for referrals after seeing his work and it's always a pleasure pulling into my driveway to see my front steps.

They replaced a wood retaining wall with stone. Due to poor accessibility because of steep grade, the job was labour intensive. Despite this, Onur and Phil's team did a great job. They were very communicative, reasonably priced, came when they said they were coming and kept us updated even when we were away on holiday.

The Fix It Guys have recently completed stonework on our porch, and they did an exceptional work, finished on time, on budget, and they were very professional and easy to work with. We were blown away by their utmost care to match new stone to existing 17-year old stone. Great price, great workmanship, GREAT JOB!

Our backyard stones were uneven and had drainage problems. These guys came, and were able to re-level about 600 sqft, and now it is smooth and even put in new steps up to the patio and offered to fix up a small landing in the front of the house. They completed the work as quoted, and 1 day ahead of schedule. They kept a close eye on the work being done and am happy with the work. Thanks again guys!

Phil, Onur and the team were easy, friendly and wonderful to work with. They built a retaining wall, fence and installed interlocking throughout our backyard and it looks amazing! I've received so many compliments on my fence alone in such little time it's been up. They were excellent in communicating with us and answering any and all questions we had, making necessary changes to ensure everything looks great!
