What Marvin does to a fence

Marvin is a village of large lots. An estate lot can carry several hundred feet of fence, and a lot of it is aluminum picket along the front and sides, with wood privacy around the pool or the back patio. A long run means a lot of posts, and on a long run a single bad post is easy to miss until the section next to it starts to lean.

The soil is the same red clay as the rest of Union County. Clay holds water, and a wood post that stands in wet clay goes soft at the ground line. Aluminum posts do not rot, but they are set in the same concrete, and when a footing cracks or heaves the section racks and the gate stops lining up with its latch.

The houses around Marvin Ridge and the newer streets off Marvin Road went up in waves. Fences built in the same wave age in the same wave, so when a neighbor is replacing posts, yours are usually close behind. That is the moment to count the posts and decide between a repair and a rebuild.

Minutes from our base

Marvin shares our 28173 zip code. A post that needs its concrete to cure overnight is an easy next-day return for us.

Repairs that pass the HOA

On a street with design review, a repair has to match: same height, same picket profile, same color on aluminum. We repair to match, and you get the finished result to send back.

Permits, setbacks and HOA approval in Marvin

Marvin is a village in Union County. Union County handles building permits and inspections. The Village of Marvin handles zoning and setbacks, and on a large lot the setback from the road and the side lines matters for where a new fence may go. A repair that keeps the same fence in the same place usually needs nothing.

Most streets in Marvin have an HOA with design review. Check with your HOA before a new fence and before a repair that changes how the fence looks from the street. The form usually wants a plan with the fence line, height, style and gate. We help with that drawing from your sizes. Read our Union County HOA guide.

Before we dig for a new fence we call 811, so the gas, water, irrigation and cable lines are marked for free. The village and the county have the final word on permits and setbacks, and the HOA on its own rules.

Prices and how it works

  • Fence, gate and storm repairs: $225 to $600 per repair visit
  • New wood, vinyl and aluminum fences: see the cost page for the per-foot ranges

Every price is installed, plus tax, confirmed after the final measure. See what moves the price on our fence cost page.

On a long run, walk it first and count the posts that lean. Then text us two or three photos and the rough sizes, or upload them here, and we send a free written quote. The work day is usually 6 to 10 days after you accept the quote, and it goes in writing. After you say yes, we confirm the exact sizes on site as part of the job. No free visit to quote.

North Carolina projects of $40,000 or more are contracted through our licensed general contractor partner.

Frequently Asked Questions

My fence in Marvin is very long. Do you charge by the foot for a repair?
No. Repairs are priced per repair visit, $225 to $600, installed, plus tax, confirmed after the final measure. A long fence with three bad posts is a three-post repair, not a long-fence repair. Several repairs in the same visit are quoted as one job.
Can you fix an aluminum fence, or only wood?
Both. Aluminum sections and posts are replaced with matching parts. Send a photo of the damage and a close-up of a rail end so we can see the profile. A bent section from a mower or a fallen limb is usually a one-visit swap.
Who approves a new fence in Marvin?
Two groups. The Village of Marvin handles zoning and setbacks, and Union County handles building permits. On most Marvin streets the HOA also has to say yes first, and it usually asks for a plan with the fence line, height, style and gate. We help with that drawing. They have the final word, so ask early.
Is a fence around a pool handled the same way?
No. Pool barriers have their own rules on height, gaps and self-closing gates, and they differ by town. Check with the Village of Marvin or Union County first. For a frameless glass pool fence, our sister company Carolina Glass Railing installs those.
