A fence for the way you use your property
Keep the finished edge and the sightline.
For a Marietta home, ornamental fencing can define a front edge or side boundary while keeping a view through the yard. A separate privacy run may be better for an outdoor living area. We can compare those purposes and coordinate gates without assuming one material should surround the whole property.
Start with the purpose, not just the photograph. We can review the proposed line, gate locations, existing fence condition and your priorities, then discuss a defined installation or repair scope.

An ornamental boundary with a practical layout
Steel and aluminum provide different open-fence options. Compare the finish, support system and repair implications alongside the decorative profile. At an entrance, preserve the access and visibility required for the property rather than allowing a chosen panel style to dictate an unsuitable gate location.
Compare more than the front of the fence.
Ornamental steel combines an open boundary with a more substantial decorative treatment. Rail patterns, picket tops, protective finish and gate design should be selected as a coordinated system.
At the property visit, look at both sides, the ground below the proposed line and the approach to each opening. Discuss what stays, what comes out and what will happen at transitions. A written scope should distinguish new work from retained components and identify the workmanship coverage that applies.

Ornamental Steel Fencing options for your Marietta project.
Start with the look you like, then compare privacy, access, care and the needs of your property.
Residential ornamental fencing
An open metal fence defines a residential boundary without a solid privacy screen. Confirm the finished height, support details and care requirements for the selected product.
Pool-area ornamental fencing
An open ornamental perimeter preserves views around a pool. Review height, openings, gate hardware and local barrier requirements rather than selecting on appearance alone.
Grade-following ornamental layout
Open metal panels can define a changing landscape. Discuss transitions, bottom clearances and the selected steel system's finish and support requirements.

Wood Fencing: another option for Marietta.
Start with the look you like, then compare privacy, access, care and the needs of your property.
Cap-and-trim privacy
A continuous top cap and trim give this wood privacy fence a finished edge. Compare board spacing and the appearance of both faces before settling on the detail.
Dog ear privacy
This rear view shows the rails and posts behind a vertical-board privacy fence. Discuss which face will show from your property and how the line will meet changes in grade.
Spaced pickets with a walk gate
Open spacing lets light and views through the fence. Match the gate's picket pattern and review the openings around pets, children and everyday access.

Installation, access and repair planning in Marietta.
Choose the opening before finalizing the fence
A walk gate should connect the routes you actually use. A wider opening may be needed for mowers, equipment or deliveries. Mark those paths on your sketch and discuss latch access, travel direction and the room needed on both sides.
For an automatic driveway or commercial gate, include who needs access, power arrangements and a separate pedestrian route in the initial conversation. We can review gates as a standalone project or as part of the fence installation.
Decide what is worth keeping
A damaged panel and a failing line are not the same problem. Compare the posts at ground level, rail connections, adjacent sections and gate supports. A localized repair can be sensible when the retained components remain serviceable.
Send a close-up, a wider view and a description of what changed. For powered gates, avoid unsafe operation and include equipment identification only if it is safely accessible. Photos help us prepare; the final scope may require an on-site assessment.
Before the first post in Marietta
Local requirements deserve a local check.
Marietta says most fences do not require a building permit, but regulates location, height and materials. Its fence guidance also addresses the public right-of-way and outward-facing finished surfaces. Marietta fence guidance.
A permit exemption is not permission to place a fence anywhere. Confirm the right-of-way boundary and the applicable design rules before setting the line; the curb is not a reliable substitute for that boundary.
Official resource checked September 21, 2026. Requirements can change; confirm the current rules for your parcel and proposed work before construction.
Bring these details
A better starting point for your estimate.
- Your project address and survey or reliable boundary information.
- A sketch of the fence route, gate openings and areas to keep.
- Any written HOA approval, design restrictions or site-plan conditions.
- Photos showing grades, drainage, access and the existing fence.
Municipal approval and private design approval are separate. Identify easements and coordinate utility locating before digging; do not use an existing fence as proof of a property line.
Use our planning checklistRepairs are welcome in Marietta
Fix what needs fixing.
For an ornamental repair, show the post, rail and picket profiles. Matching dimensions, connections and finish must be evaluated rather than promised from a distant photograph.
Text a wider view and a close-up to (678) 245-1920, along with your name and location. Photos help start the conversation; we may need an on-site assessment to define the work. We will discuss the condition of the components that stay, not just the parts being replaced.

Before we get started
Fence questions in Marietta.
If no building permit is needed, are there still fence rules?
Yes. Marietta's fence page explains that location, height and materials remain regulated even when a building permit is not required.
What affects the cost of a fence in Marietta?
The material, height, measured length, number and construction of gates, removal work, site access and ground conditions all affect the scope. A survey or layout and a few photos help us prepare; an accurate proposal should identify the selected system and what work is included.
Can you help compare fence types for my Marietta property?
Yes. Ornamental Steel Fencing is one starting point for this guide, not a requirement for every property. Tell us whether privacy, an open view, animal containment, pool access or commercial use matters most. We can compare suitable layouts and review the restrictions that apply to your parcel.
Do you offer both installation and repairs in Marietta?
Yes. We welcome residential installations, fence and gate repairs, and commercial inquiries in our Cobb County service area. Send the actual project address so we can confirm the location and scope.
What should I send for an estimate?
Send your name, contact information, project location and a description of the work. Photos, a rough layout, existing surveys and any written design requirements help us discuss the next step.
Which warranty applies to my project?
