Fencing in Portland
Fencing in Portland varies by neighborhood and tree-code overlay. Inner-east bungalow yards need different specs than Southwest hillside properties. We're selective about which Portland fence jobs make sense logistically.
About working in Portland
What we've learned installing fencing in Portland.
Portland is the largest city in our service area, but we're selective about which neighborhoods we take work in. We focus on the close-in southwest and inner-east neighborhoods where the project profiles fit our crew strengths — hardscape, drainage, and full-yard transformations on established residential lots.
Terrain & soil
Massively variable. Southwest has hills and basalt; east of the river is mostly flat alluvial soil; the hills above Burnside are deep loam over clay. Drainage planning has to be done lot-by-lot in Portland more than anywhere else in our footprint.
Properties we work on
Anything from 1900s craftsman bungalows on 0.1 acre to 1+ acre lots in the Southwest hills. Mature landscapes are the norm — most projects involve working around existing trees, hardscape, and infrastructure.
Neighborhoods we serve
- Southwest Portland (Multnomah, Hillsdale, Burlingame)
- Sellwood-Moreland
- Eastmoreland
- Laurelhurst
- Hawthorne
Permits in Portland
Portland's permit process is the most complex in our service area. Tree code, BES (Bureau of Environmental Services) stormwater requirements, and historic overlays all kick in depending on neighborhood. We quote permit timelines conservatively here.

Common questions
What Portland homeowners ask about fencing.
What materials do you install?
Wood (cedar, pressure-treated, custom), chain link (galvanized and vinyl-coated), and iron or ornamental fencing. We propose what fits the home, not a generic catalog.
How much does fencing cost per linear foot?
Wood privacy fencing runs $35–$65 per linear foot installed in our area. Chain link is $20–$35/LF. Iron and ornamental runs higher. We give you a locked quote at the site visit.
Do you handle gates?
Yes — single, double, and walk-through gates, plus latching hardware. We can match the gate to the fence or use it as a design accent.
How long does fence installation take?
Most residential fences are done in 1–3 days. Post-setting in concrete needs cure time, so longer runs may span a few days for that reason.
Do you require an upfront payment?
No. We never require upfront payment. The free site visit gives you a locked quote, and you're not invoiced until the work is complete.
What areas do you serve?
We work the I-5 corridor from Canby (our HQ) through Aurora, Hubbard, Oregon City, West Linn, Wilsonville, Tualatin, Sherwood, Lake Oswego, Portland, and Salem.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. GI Landscape is CCB # 224884, fully licensed, bonded, and insured in the state of Oregon.
