Fencing across the Greater Toronto Area.
Everline installs residential and commercial fencing across the GTA, York Region, and the surrounding communities. Wherever you are, you get the same technology-driven estimating, dedicated project coordination, and quality-controlled installation.
We know the local rules—fence-height bylaws, setback and pool-enclosure requirements, and frost-depth footings that keep a fence standing through Ontario winters. If you don't see your city listed, reach out; we likely still serve it.

Fence height limits across the GTA.
Every municipality sets its own limits, and they genuinely differ—so a fence that's legal in Newmarket may be too tall in Markham. Here's what the by-laws actually say.
| Municipality | Front yard | Rear & side yard | Permit needed? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Toronto | 1.2 m near the street line, 2.0 m beyond | 2.0 m | No |
| Vaughan | 1.2 m near the street line, 2.0 m beyond | 2.0 m | No |
| Markham | 1.2 m | 1.8 m | No |
| Richmond Hill | 1.2 m | 1.8 m | No |
| Aurora | 1.2 m | 2.0 m | No |
| Newmarket | 1.0 m | 2.1 m | No |
| Mississauga | 2.0 m, dropping to 1.0 m near the street line | 2.0 m | No |
| Brampton | 1.0 m | 2.0 m | No |
| Oakville | 1.5 m, open lattice above 1.0 m | 2.0 m | No |
Heights are measured from the average grade on either side of the fence, so sloped ground and retaining walls change the number. Corner lots, driveways and pools carry extra rules—a pool enclosure always needs a permit. We confirm your property's limits before we quote.
Knowing the by-law is the easy part.
The table above is public information—anyone can look it up. What decides whether your fence passes is what happens after: pulling the limit for your lot, catching the things that quietly change it, and building deep enough that it still stands straight in year five.
- Grade, not ground
- Height is measured from the average grade a metre out on each side. A slope or a retaining wall changes your number before we've dug anything.
- Corner lots and driveways
- Sight-line rules vary more than height does—Richmond Hill uses a 4.5 m triangle, Newmarket 5 m, Oakville 10.67 m. Toronto has none, and regulates the driveway instead.
- Pools are a permit job
- Always—in every city on this page. We flag it before you've paid for anything, not after an inspector does.
- Frost line
- The GTA frost line runs three to four feet. Posts go below it, or the ground lifts them out over a couple of winters.
