Fences for Scott County's new neighborhoods and lake places
Scott County fencing splits between new-sod yards in Shakopee and Savage getting their first boundaries and Prior Lake properties fencing for pools, pets, and privacy near the water. Clay soil punishes shallow posts everywhere in the county.
A local contractor sets posts for clay and frost, follows each city's code, especially pool code, and builds to match the neighborhood. The fence goes up straight and stays that way.

How much does a fence cost in Savage?
Wood fencing in the area typically runs $18 to $35 per linear foot and vinyl $30 to $75 per linear foot, based on height, material, and terrain.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Scott County?
Many fences need a permit and must sit inside your property line. Check Scott County rules and locate your lot lines before install.
Do I need a permit or survey for a fence in Savage?
Many Savage cities require a permit for a new fence and a check of your property line before you set posts. A quick call to the city and a survey pin check prevent a costly move later.
How deep should fence posts go in Savage?
Fence posts in Savage should sit below the frost line, often around 42 inches, so winter heave does not push them up. Proper depth and drainage are what keep a fence straight through our seasons.
When is the best time to install a fence in Savage?
Late spring through fall is the easiest window for fencing in Savage, once the ground has thawed enough to dig. Crews can install in cooler weather but frozen ground slows post setting.
