Fence Installation & Repair services in Richfield
Richfield is a small, fully built city of about seven square miles between south Minneapolis and Bloomington, with the airport on its east edge. Most of its houses are Cape Cods and ramblers from the years right after World War II, set on a regular street grid with similar lot widths. That makes fence layout predictable, but it also means many properties are on their second or third fence, with old concrete footings still in the ground along the line. Wood Lake Nature Center and Richfield Lake give some homes a marsh edge. Corner lots are common on the grid, and the city applies a lower height along the street side of a corner lot than along an interior lot line. Aircraft noise is part of life on the east side, and solid wood or vinyl panels are a popular choice there.

Permits and local rules
Richfield's fence handout limits fences to four feet in a front yard or a side yard that abuts a street, and six feet in a rear yard. On a corner lot, a rear yard fence along the street side can be six feet only if it is set three feet in from the property line. Nothing over 30 inches is allowed in the corner sight triangle. Barbed wire and electric fences are prohibited.
