Privacy, decoration, pool safety, or property boundary — here's an honest breakdown of every fence type we install and who each one is right for.
The full-panel privacy fence — solid vinyl panels that completely block the view into your yard. The most requested fence type in NEPA for backyard privacy, noise reduction, and defined outdoor spaces. Available in 6ft and 8ft heights with multiple post cap styles.
Shadow box, lattice top, picket, and semi-private vinyl styles that add definition and curb appeal without full enclosure. Popular for front yards, garden borders, and properties where you want a defined boundary that still allows airflow and partial visibility.
Pennsylvania requires pool enclosures that meet specific safety code requirements — minimum 48" height, self-closing and self-latching gates, and no footholds that allow climbing. We install code-compliant pool fencing in vinyl that meets all PA requirements.
Wood fencing remains a popular choice for homeowners looking for a classic, natural appearance with strong privacy and curb appeal. We install pressure-treated wood privacy fences, picket fences, shadowbox fencing, split rail fencing, and custom wood fence styles throughout NEPA.
Semi-privacy fencing offers the perfect middle ground between full privacy and an open decorative fence. These fences allow airflow and light while still limiting visibility into your yard. A great option for patios, pools, backyards, and properties where complete enclosure feels too closed in.
Defining your property line clearly prevents neighbor disputes, keeps pets contained, and establishes clear yard boundaries. Vinyl rail fencing and open-style boundary options that clearly mark your property without requiring a full privacy enclosure.
The same Yankee Standard that guides our roofing work applies to every fence we install.
Our fence installation crews are local NEPA people. We know how Pennsylvania soil behaves through freeze-thaw cycles, how to properly set posts for our climate, and how to handle the grade changes common in NEPA yards.
The most common fence failure in NEPA is post heaving from frost. We set posts below the frost line — minimum 42 inches in Pennsylvania — with proper concrete footings. Crews cutting corners on post depth produce fences that lean and fail within a few winters.
NEPA properties are not flat. Our crews handle racked fencing (following the grade) and stepped fencing (level panels with steps) correctly — your fence looks professional on slopes rather than gapping or dragging on the ground.
Most NEPA municipalities require permits for fence installation — especially over 6ft or near property lines. We know local requirements and help navigate the permit process so your fence is installed legally.
Pennsylvania's climate creates specific challenges for fence installation that out-of-area contractors regularly get wrong. Here's what local experience accounts for.
Pennsylvania's frost line is 36–42 inches. Posts set shallower will heave over winter as the ground freezes and thaws. We set every post to code depth with concrete — the most common cause of premature fence failure in NEPA.
NEPA yards are rarely flat. Proper racked or stepped fence installation on grade changes is a skill — done wrong your fence looks unprofessional and may not hold properly. Our crews handle every grade situation correctly.
Wayne County and much of NEPA has rocky, clay-heavy soil that makes post installation more difficult and requires the right equipment. We're equipped for NEPA soil conditions — not surprised by them on installation day.
Every NEPA municipality has its own fence permit requirements — setback distances, height limits, and variance processes. We know what's required in Wayne, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Monroe, and Pike counties.
Simple four-step process. No pressure, no obligation at any stage.
We come to your property, walk the fence line, note grade changes, check for buried utilities, and discuss style and height options. You get a detailed written estimate before anything is decided.
We show you material and style samples, discuss gate placement and post cap options, and help you choose the right panel height and style for your specific yard and goals.
We handle permit coordination where required and schedule installation around your availability. We notify 811 (Call Before You Dig) to locate buried utilities before any post is set.
Our crew sets posts to frost-line depth, installs panels and gates, and cleans up completely. We walk the fence line with you at completion to make sure everything is exactly right.
Real customers across Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Honesdale, Wayne County and all of NEPA.
"We had a wood fence that was rotting and leaning after only 12 years. Replaced it with vinyl privacy fence from Honesdale Roofers and the difference is night and day. Clean, solid installation — crew handled the slope in our yard perfectly. Wish we'd done vinyl the first time."
"Had them install a full privacy fence around our backyard in Honesdale. The crew was professional, on time, and the fence looks exactly like the samples we were shown. Three winters later and it looks exactly the same as the day they put it up. Zero maintenance. Highly recommend."
"Called for a pool fence — needed it code compliant for our homeowner's insurance. They knew exactly what was required, handled the permit, and had it done in one day. Self-latching gate, proper height, passed inspection first time. Easy experience start to finish."
