Fence checks and small fence repair in Peachtree City
Fence work in Peachtree City has a permit line at 4 feet: building or altering any fence that tall or taller needs a city building permit. Small fixes are neighbor work, but whether replacing boards on an existing tall fence counts as an alteration is for the city to say, so check with the city before a bigger repair.
Storm damage comes with a deadline: a fence damaged by accident or an act of God must be repaired within 90 days, and fencing required for public safety must be fixed immediately. Longer farm fence runs are mostly out in the county, where towns such as Woolsey sit among open pastures, and a fence helper from town can cover both.
Where a Peachtree City back yard meets a cart path, no fence may go within 4 feet of the path's paved edge.

Questions people ask
How often should a farm fence be checked?
Many owners walk it monthly and after every big storm or high wind. Owners with goats or horses that lean on fences often check more.
Can a teen help with fence work?
Yes, with a parent's OK and an adult working alongside. Barbed wire, post drivers and electric fences aren't something a teen should handle alone.
How is this different from fence installation?
This is for checks and small repairs. A new fence or a long stretch of replacement is a bigger job for a fencing company.
