Fence Installation & Repair services in Riverview
Riverview feels more suburban than the river towns to its north. Many homes sit on curving streets built from the 1960s on, with larger yards, attached garages and fewer alleys. Some back yards border wooded land, the golf course or drainage areas, and the ground there can dip and stay wet. That changes the fence plan. A racked fence that follows a gentle dip keeps a dog from slipping under, and gravel at the bottom of each post helps where water sits. Riverview's zoning ordinance has its own article on walls and fences. It asks for a zoning permit and wants the better looking side of the fence facing outward. Wood is limited to certain species and grades, so we confirm the material with the city before the order goes in.

Permits and local rules
Riverview's zoning ordinance covers fences in Article 15 (Walls and Fences), which calls for a zoning permit from the Building Department to build, change or move a fence and requires the more finished side to face the outside of the lot. We could not confirm the height limit for each yard from the city's own text, so we check it with the department for your address.
