Privacy Fencing Boulder
Privacy Fencing Near Boulder, Colorado
Looking to install a new privacy fence around your property for added seclusion, security and curb appeal?
As experienced fencing contractors serving Boulder County for over 15 years, our team has installed hundreds of beautiful, durable privacy fences to help homeowners like you enhance your outdoor living spaces.
Unlike a chain link or picket fence, our custom privacy fences use overlapping wooden boards or vinyl panels to completely block views and noise from surrounding homes and streets.
This allows you to enjoy activities like sunbathing, grilling and entertaining guests in complete privacy. A privacy fence also keeps unwanted pets and people off your property while adding an attractive border that increases your home’s value.
With proper materials, craftsmanship and maintenance, a privacy fence can last for decades while transforming the look and enjoyment of your yard.
Our skilled fencing experts handle the entire installation process, from planning and permitting to digging post holes and constructing the fence with quality boards or vinyl sections. We can match our fences to your home’s style and suggest height options to maximize privacy without exceeding code requirements.

FAQs About Privacy Fencing in Boulder
What is the ideal height for a privacy fence?
Most clients choose 6 feet, as this height fully blocks views from neighbors while complying with Boulder code. We can advise on taller heights to suit your needs where permitted.
What are the best materials for privacy fences in Boulder’s climate?
Cedar and redwood offer durability and privacy. For a lower maintenance option, vinyl is an excellent fencing material resistant to Boulder’s high sun exposure and moisture.
How far from the property line can I install a fence?
Privacy fences are typically set 6 inches inside your property line after acquiring a city permit. We ensure proper setbacks.
How long does it take to install a privacy fence?
The full process takes 2-4 weeks from planning to completion. The actual installation takes 1-3 days once the materials are ready. We work efficiently.
Will my landscape be damaged during the privacy fence installation?
Our crew takes care to protect plants, trees and structures, minimizing landscape disruption while restoring any incidental damage.
What maintenance is required for a wooden privacy fence?
Expect to seal or stain your cedar/redwood fence every 2-4 years. We provide tips for sealing, washing, repairing boards and keeping gates functioning smoothly.
What if my property has challenging slopes or terrain?
Our team specializes in installing privacy fences on uneven ground, tactfully stepping the fence across slopes for optimal privacy without massive gaps.
Should I paint my vinyl or composite fence for added color?
You can paint or stain composite fences, but we don’t recommend painting vinyl, as it can void the material warranty and shorten the lifespan.
How do I know if my fence permit application will be approved?
Our team assists with the permit process, providing all necessary documentation and following up to ensure your privacy fence meets zoning requirements.
Will a new fence help reduce noise from my neighbors?
Absolutely. A well-constructed, airtight wooden or vinyl privacy fence drastically reduces outdoor noise transmission from nearby homes and streets.
