A Decade Older Than Allen

The median Plano home was built in 1993 and the median Allen home in 2003. On average a Plano fence line has been through one more replacement cycle.

For a repair that changes the starting question. In Allen it is often “is the original fence worth saving?” In much of Plano the original is long gone, and the question is how well the last replacement was built: wooden posts or steel, how deep, and how the rails are attached.

Plano’s Rules Are Plano’s

Everything this site says about height limits, metal posts, pool latches and easements comes from the City of Allen’s fence guideline. None of it applies in Plano. The City of Plano has its own fence regulations and its own permit rules, which this site has not read and does not summarize.

For a Plano address, ask the City of Plano’s building inspections department what applies before a replacement, and ask the contractor what they normally do there.

What does carry across the city line is state-level: the Texas State Law Library’s point that a neighbor generally has no legal duty to share fence costs without an agreement, and the Texas811 requirement to request utility locates two business days before digging.

Plano Fence Questions

Do Allen’s fence rules apply in Plano?

No. Plano has its own rules. Check with the City of Plano.

Will the same contractor come to Plano?

Requests from Plano are passed to an independent fence contractor who works in the area. Give the full address so it is routed correctly.

Is the repair-or-replace check the same?

Yes. Push the posts, look at the bottom of the pickets, check what the posts are made of.
