Fence Company in Meridianville, Alabama
Meridianville has taken a lot of Huntsville’s northward growth along US-231, which means a high share of our work here is first fences on lots that were bare ground eighteen months ago.
Fencing a Newly Built Lot
A new-construction lot is not settled ground. The soil around the house has been moved, compacted unevenly, and often backfilled, and it will continue settling for a year or two. A post set only into disturbed backfill moves with it. We dig through the fill to undisturbed soil underneath, which sometimes means a deeper hole than the same fence would need on an established lot next door.
What New Meridianville Homeowners Ask For
Almost always a back-yard enclosure, and usually in this order of priority: keep the dog in, get some privacy from the neighbour, and finish the yard so it stops looking like a construction site. Six-foot privacy is the common answer, but where a builder covenant caps height or requires a particular finished face, we build to the covenant and say so up front rather than after the fact.
Jurisdiction: Meridianville falls under unincorporated Madison County along the US-231 corridor. Fence rules differ between a city code and county rules, and they change, so we confirm what currently applies to your parcel before the build rather than quoting a rule from memory.

Fence Questions from Meridianville Homeowners
My Meridianville house is new. Should I wait before fencing?
You do not need to wait, but the installer does need to know the lot is new. The fix is technique, not time: we set posts through the disturbed backfill into the ground below it. Fencing set only into fill is the reason some new-build fences lean within two years.
Does my builder's covenant control what fence I can put up?
Often yes, and it is separate from any HOA. Covenants commonly set a maximum height, an allowed material, and which way the finished side must face. Send us the paperwork and we will build to it.
Can you work around a new irrigation system?
Yes, if we know where it is. Bring us the irrigation plan or flag the heads and lines before we dig. We also call 811 for utilities on every job, but 811 marks public utilities only and will not show a private irrigation run, a low-voltage lighting cable or a pet-fence loop. Those are the three we hit most often on a newly landscaped Meridianville lot, and all three are cheap to avoid and annoying to repair.
