Fences

Replacing a pool fence

Fence work on a pool home has extra rules.

This is an independent referral guide. It connects homeowners with independent providers and may receive compensation. It is not a licensed contractor and it does not do the work.

Permits and materials

Chandler says residents must obtain a building permit before building pool fencing, and existing wood fencing must be changed to masonry, concrete, or decorative fencing when installing a pool.

During the work

The manual says the pool area must remain secured during construction.

Limits

Planning rules cap fence height at 7 feet in rear and side yards, and fences must stay at least 3 feet from fire hydrants or utilities.
