About Upright Johns Creek Fencing

What the work covers

Every project here is about a line on a lot and what stands on it: wood, vinyl, aluminum and chain link fences, the gates in them, and the gate operators, pool barriers and pasture fences that come with particular properties. A project starts by walking the line, settles the paperwork that decides what can be built, and ends with a fence that stands straight, gates that latch and a clean yard.

• Fence installation: New fences planned around the Johns Creek permit, your HOA's rules and the clay and rock under the yard, with posts set for the ground that is actually there.
• Fence replacement: Tear-out, haul-away and a new fence on the right line, with the Johns Creek permit that replacements need.
• Wood fences: Pressure-treated pine and cedar fences in board-on-board, shadowbox, stockade and picket styles, with posts set to last in north Fulton clay.
• Privacy fences: 6 and 8 foot privacy fences in wood, vinyl and composite, built for the wind a solid fence catches and the rules your HOA sets.
• Fence repair: Leaning posts, storm damage, broken boards, loose chain link and sagging gates, repaired where the rest of the fence is sound.
• Vinyl fences: Privacy and picket vinyl fences with reinforced gates and posts set for clay, on the lots where vinyl is allowed.
• Aluminum fences: Black aluminum and ornamental steel fences for street-facing yards, pools and views, racked to follow the slope.
• Chain link fences: Galvanized and black vinyl-coated chain link for pets, property lines and dog runs, placed where Johns Creek allows it.
• Gates: Walk, double and driveway gates hung on posts sized for them, braced to stay square and set back where the code says.
• Automatic gates: Swing and slide driveway gate openers with the safety equipment and setbacks they need.
• Pool fences: Pool barriers planned with the pool permit, with gates that close and latch on their own every time.
• Fence staining: Cleaning, stain and sealer for new and weathered wood fences, timed for the wood and the weather.
• Commercial fencing: Amenity, stormwater, security and screening fences for HOAs, businesses and property managers.
• Horse fences: Board, horse-rated mesh and polymer rail fencing for pastures and paddocks, built for horses that lean, rub and run.
• Farm fencing: Woven wire, ranch rail and field gates for small farms, gardens and acreage, braced for long runs and rolling ground.

Who builds it

Upright Johns Creek Fencing sets up and manages each project. The work is carried out by licensed and insured fencing contractors, to these standards:

• Licensed and insured fencing contractors. Every job is carried out by licensed and insured fencing contractors, set up and managed through one point of contact.
• The permit and the HOA, in order. Johns Creek requires a fence permit for new and replacement fences, and many subdivisions require architectural approval. The site plan is drawn once and used for both.
• Utilities located before powered digging. Georgia law requires a Georgia 811 locate request at least 3 business days before digging with a powered auger. Private lines are found and marked on site.
• Posts set for north Fulton ground. Post depth, size and drainage are chosen for the fence height, the gates and the soil, from firm clay to stony ground and creek bottoms.
• Pool barriers built for the permit. Pool fences follow the pool and spa code as adopted in Georgia, with gates that close and latch on their own, and are inspected with the pool permit.

How pricing works

The fence cost guide explains what moves the price on a north Fulton lot, and the cost estimator gives an Atlanta-area budgeting range before anyone visits. The price for a specific property comes in a written estimate after someone walks the line and sees the ground, the slope and the gates.
