- The City of Lawrence requires a permit for any new fence. Front-yard fences max at 4 ft; rear-yard at 8 ft. Corner lots have a step-down rule near intersections for sight lines. Historic districts (Old West Lawrence, Oread) have additional style review. Kodiak pulls the permit for you and handles the paperwork.Copy link to this answer
- Yes. We work with Lawrence property managers and landlords on multi-property jobs. Chain link is the most common for rentals — durable, low maintenance, and code-compliant. We can invoice property management companies directly.Copy link to this answer
- Most residential installs are 2–4 days on site. From signed quote to install date is 2–4 weeks in shoulder seasons and 4–6 weeks mid-summer. Permit turnaround adds 5–10 business days. Lawrence historic district review adds another 1–2 weeks if applicable.Copy link to this answer
- Cedar and vinyl both hold up well. Lawrence sits in the Kaw River valley — wind loading from the west matters. We use 4×4 pressure-treated posts on 8 ft centers (not 10 ft) set 30 in deep. That extra structure is why our fences don't lean after Kansas wind storms.Copy link to this answer
- Yes. We file the Kansas One Call 811 dig ticket for every job, wait the full 48 hours for utility locates, and never dig before lines are marked. Older Lawrence neighborhoods have shallow gas and irrigation — we don't cut corners.Copy link to this answer
- Yes. Old West Lawrence, Oread, and East Lawrence historic districts have Historic Resources Commission review for exterior changes including fences. We handle the design submission, use approved materials and styles (typically wood picket or split-rail, no chain link in front yards), and coordinate approval.Copy link to this answer
