Five sectors, one set of rules
Hull, Aylmer, Gatineau, Buckingham and Masson-Angers have been a single city since 2002. Whichever sector you live in, the same height, setback and permit rules apply.
The permit, backwards from what most people expect
No permit is required for an ordinary residential fence. The one exception is a fence enclosing a pool, which does require one. Most people believe the opposite.
Allowed heights
1.2 m in the front yard. 1.5 m in a side yard adjacent to a street. 2 m in a side yard not adjacent to a street and in the rear yard, for a building of 1 to 4 dwellings.
The setback that costs money when it is missed
The fence must sit at least 1 m from a sidewalk, or 1.5 m from a street curb where there is none, and entirely on your property. A fence set too close gets moved in full, not adjusted. That is why we measure before digging.

Kevin & his team were very easy to work with and I'm very happy with the result of my new fence. I changed a few things to the original plan and there was no trouble or hassle in doing so. I'm already planning to hire them for another project!
Excellent service from start to finish! The work was completed quickly and with great care. The team is very professional and courteous, and communication was easy throughout the project. I am truly satisfied with the result-I highly recommend them. 5/5
