A private backyard you’ll actually want to spend time in.
Professional Privacy Fence Installation
A privacy fence does a lot of work for one project. It blocks sightlines from the street and neighboring yards, gives kids and pets a safe space to play, encloses a pool, cuts down on road and yard noise, and adds real value and curb appeal to your home. Six feet is the most common height for backyard privacy in the Roanoke Valley, though front-yard fences are often limited to a lower height — rules vary by city, county, and HOA, so we’ll help you confirm what’s allowed before we build.
The two most popular materials are wood and vinyl. Wood gives you that warm, classic look with options like board-on-board, shadowbox, stockade, and cap-and-trim — and it can be stained to match your home. Vinyl delivers the same solid privacy with almost no upkeep: no painting, no staining, and no rot. On sloped yards we step the fence cleanly down the grade so the top line stays even and the bottom follows the ground without large gaps. We’ll walk you through the trade-offs and price both so you can choose what fits your yard and budget.

Privacy Fence questions, answered
- How tall can a privacy fence be in the Roanoke area?
- Backyard privacy fences are usually six feet, which is what most homeowners want for real screening. Front-yard fences are often capped lower, and many HOAs and localities have their own rules on height, material, and color. We’ll help you confirm the requirements for your property before we build.
- Should I choose a wood or vinyl privacy fence?
- Wood costs less up front and gives you a warm, classic look you can stain to match your home — board-on-board, shadowbox, stockade, or cap-and-trim. Vinyl costs more at first but needs almost no maintenance and won’t rot or need re-staining. We’re happy to price both so you can compare.
- Can you build a privacy fence on a sloped yard?
- Yes. On a grade we step the fence down the slope so the top stays level and the panels follow the ground without leaving big gaps underneath. Proper post setting keeps it straight and plumb through Virginia’s freeze-thaw winters — we handle sloped Roanoke Valley lots regularly.
