Fence Installation & Repair services in Parma
Ask a Parma homeowner what the old fence is and the answer is usually chain link, put up when the street was built. Parma grew fast after the Second World War, and long blocks of bungalows, Cape Cods and ranches still have the same galvanized fence on every lot line. Decades of freezing clay have pushed many of those posts out of plumb. We replace them with new chain link, wood privacy fence or vinyl, and we take out the old concrete footings on the way. Lots here are wider than in the inner-ring suburbs, so a machine can normally reach the back yard. Yards that back onto West Creek or a drainage swale stay wet longer in spring. In Ridgewood, an older planned neighborhood, owners tend to ask for picket or ornamental styles that suit the houses.

Permits and local rules
Parma requires a permit before a fence goes up, under section 1529.23 of its Codified Ordinances. Fences belong in the rear yard, up to 6 feet high, and may not run more than 5 feet forward of the side door. No fence is allowed between the sidewalk and the front of the house. Chain link, picket, stockade and board-on-board are all accepted, and the posts go on the side of the owner who is building.
