Why Pergolas & Fences Matter for Your Hilliard Home
Pergolas
A pergola gives you shade and style. It turns part of your backyard into a space you want to use — whether it’s for grilling, relaxing, or sitting with friends after work. A pergola is open on top, so it lets in breeze and partial sun, unlike a fully covered structure. Many Hilliard homeowners love pergolas because they—
- Create a relaxing outdoor seating area
- Add visual interest and architectural detail
- Can support climbing plants like wisteria or vines
- Make your outdoor space feel more intentional and inviting
The result is more time spent outside and a backyard that feels complete.
Fences
A fence isn’t just about boundaries. In Hilliard, many homeowners install fences for privacy, safety, pet containment, and curb appeal. A well‑built fence:
- Gives kids and pets a secure area to play
- Blocks neighbor or street views
- Defines property lines clearly
- Houses pools safely (code often requires pool fencing)
Typical fence projects in Hilliard range between $1,200 and $5,500+ depending on size and materials.
We Build Outdoor Structures That Fit Your Hilliard Yard
Here’s how we make sure your project feels right for your space and lifestyle.
Personalized Design & Planning

Local Permits & Code Guidance
Hilliard requires a fence permit for new installations and replacements, and fences usually can’t be over 6 feet tall in residential yards (4 feet for chain link in some areas). We handle or guide you through this so you’re compliant with city rules and neighborhood standards.
Professional Installation
Our crews use the right tools — from post‑hole diggers and cement mixers to precision levels and saws — to make sure every post and beam is straight, stable, and plumb. We also offer finishing options like staining and weather‑resistant coatings so your pergola and fence look great for years.
Materials We Use — Built for Ohio Weather
Every material we install is chosen for durability, longevity, and how well it performs in Hilliard’s seasonal climates:
Pergola Materials
- Pressure‑treated lumber
- Cedar and redwood (natural rot resistance)
- Composite lumber
- Stainless steel fasteners
Fence Materials
- Pressure‑treated wood
- Maintenance‑free vinyl
- Rust‑resistant aluminum
- Heavy‑duty chain link (if appropriate)
These materials help protect your investment from rain, sun, cold, and humidity.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need a permit for a fence or pergola in Hilliard?
Yes for fences: Hilliard requires a permit for new fences or replacements, and limits residential fence height (usually up to 6 feet).
Pergolas: Permits vary based on size and structure. We help you figure that out early.
- How long does installation usually take?
Most pergolas take 1–3 days depending on size and weather. Fence installation time depends on yard size but usually doesn’t take more than a few days with our team.
- What kinds of wood or materials are best for our climate?
Cedar and redwood age well and resist rot naturally. Vinyl and aluminum are low‑maintenance options that stand up to rain and sun.
- Will you help with design ideas and layout?
Yes. We come to your home, look at your yard, talk about how you want to use the space, and sketch out options that fit.
- How do I choose between a pergola and a gazebo?
A pergola gives partial shade and open feel; a gazebo gives full overhead cover. It depends on how much shade and shelter you want.
- Can I combine a pergola with lighting or outdoor seating?
Absolutely. We can add lighting, built‑in seating, or integrated planters to your pergola design.
- How do I maintain my pergola or fence?
Regular cleaning, periodic staining (for wood), and checking post stability are usually all it takes. We can show you simple maintenance tips.
