Fence and gate installation across northern Delaware, from Greenville and Hockessin to Wilmington, Claymont and Newark.
Fence installation in New Castle County, DE
Northern Delaware is just over the state line from our home base in Chadds Ford. New Castle County is Delaware's northernmost and most populous county, and we install fences and gates across it.
Permits work differently here than in Pennsylvania. The county's Department of Land Use covers unincorporated communities like Claymont, Greenville and Hockessin, while Wilmington and Newark run their own code offices. If a pool is involved, the county publishes its own pool barrier requirements.

What customers say
“Alan and his crew did such an awesome job! They fenced in my backyard faster than I ever thought they could. They were very neat and respectful of our property. We love our newly fenced in backyard. Best of all, our cute puppies LOVE that they have a safe place to run and play!”
“We just had an aluminum fence put in by Chadds Ford Fence and they did an excellent job. They showed up when they said they would and several guys came and diligently worked all day. The owner is just as nice as he could be. I absolutely recommend Chadds Ford Fence!”
