Fence installation in Niagara Falls

Away from the tourist district, Niagara Falls is mostly residential streets in Stamford, Drummond and Chippawa. Property Fence installs backyard fences, pool enclosures and commercial perimeter fences across the city.

What we account for in Niagara Falls

  • Residential streets in Stamford and Chippawa
  • Welland River lots in Chippawa
  • Commercial perimeters on Lundy's Lane
  • Pool enclosures

Neighbourhoods we serve

We serve all Niagara Falls areas from the Fallsview tourist district to residential neighbourhoods like Chippawa, Stamford, and Drummond, plus the busy Lundy's Lane corridor.

Local considerations

Chippawa sits where the Welland River meets the Niagara River, so some lots there are in a conservation-regulated area. Commercial properties along Lundy's Lane often need longer chain-link or iron runs with vehicle gates.
