Privacy Fence FAQs
Charlotte allows residential fences up to 6 feet in backyards and 4 feet in front yards without a variance. Some HOAs have stricter limits. Fences over 7 feet require a permit. Check your specific neighborhood's rules before ordering.
Both provide full privacy. Wood offers a natural look and lower upfront cost. Vinyl costs more but requires zero maintenance and lasts longer. Board-on-board wood is the most private wood style since it eliminates all gaps between boards.
A typical 150-200 linear foot backyard privacy fence costs $3,000-$7,000 in wood or $4,200-$9,000 in vinyl. The total depends on material, height, terrain, and gate count. Corner lots and large yards cost more due to extra linear footage.
Solid privacy fences reduce noise by 5-10 decibels, which is a noticeable difference. They won't block all sound, but they help muffle road traffic, neighbor conversations, and barking dogs. Taller and thicker fences block more noise.
In Charlotte, fences are typically built 2-6 inches inside the property line to ensure they're fully on your property. A survey can confirm exact boundaries. Discuss with your neighbor before building -- shared fences sometimes split costs.
