Lafayette mixes an older core with newer development on the edges. In the older parts we're usually working around mature trees and existing utilities rather than on a clean lot.
Every town on the Front Range has its own combination of ground, wind and expectations. These are the builds that tend to make sense in Lafayette — though the right answer always depends on your specific lot.
The premium privacy build — fascia hides the picket tops, a flat 2×6 caps the fence, and it reads as a wall.
Clean modern lines. Popular on newer builds where the fence is part of the architecture.
The value workhorse — galvanised or black vinyl-coated for yards, dog runs and commercial lots.
No staining, no rot, no splinters. Higher upfront, near-zero maintenance afterwards.
Powder-coated steel or aluminium with finials and scrollwork. Security that still looks good from the street.
We build every style on our fence types page anywhere we work — this is just where we'd usually start the conversation in Lafayette.
Older neighbourhoods mean mature trees, buried utilities of uncertain vintage, tight access and a shared property line with a neighbour who has opinions. We locate, we communicate, and we match what the street already looks like.
In covenant-controlled neighbourhoods the height, style, stain colour and even which side the rails face can already be decided for you. We read the standard before we quote, so what we install is what gets approved.
We set posts in concrete below the local frost line — typically 30 to 36 inches on the Front Range — because a fence fails at the posts long before it fails at the pickets.
Cantilever slide gates to 30 feet, swing gates, operators, keypads and safety loops.

See deck work →Grading, rock, edging and the finish work that makes a new fence look finished.
See landscaping →Most Front Range municipalities require a permit above a certain fence height, and setback rules vary by lot. We handle the paperwork as part of the job. Always confirm current requirements with the Lafayette planning department or Boulder County directly, since local codes change and we'd rather you hear it from the source than from us.

A standard residential yard is usually a two to three day build once materials are on site. Concrete needs time to cure before gates get hung, so we don't rush that step. Larger properties and commercial work get scheduled individually.
We'll build to whatever your covenant specifies and can give you the material and style details your HOA needs for its submission. Getting approval itself stays with you as the homeowner, since the HOA needs it to come from the property owner on record.
Spring and early summer are the busiest stretch on the Front Range. If you want a fence up before summer, call in late winter. Fall is often the easiest time to get on the schedule and the ground is still workable.
