Aurora, CO · Arapahoe County
East-metro fences. Tell us where to send it, then a price before the HOA packet comes out.
Aurora stretches from older grids near Havana to wide new tracts out by Murphy Creek and Southlands. Utility easements and design guidelines show up more often here than on a Denver alley.
Vetted and insured · 24/7 FenceOwl support
We only work with family-owned American companies. We believe they offer the best service at the best prices.
Contractors are licensed where the city requires it. Colorado does not license fence contractors statewide.

Every crew is vetted and insured.
And FenceOwl stays with you around the clock until the fence is finished. We're here to be your advocate and spokesperson with the contractor, and to make sure the whole process goes smoothly. These are company promises, not a contractor slogan.
Vetted
Every contractor is reviewed by FenceOwl before they can buy a job.
Insured
Liability insurance is required on every crew we match.

FenceOwl stays on the line with you, day or night, until the project is done.
One price
We take the negotiation out of hiring a fence contractor.
Answer a few quick questions, tell us where to send it, and see your price right away. Pre-vetted contractors already compete in the book, so the number you see is the price. No haggling. No back-and-forth bids.
You should not spend a weekend comparing Aurora bids that all move after the site walk. After you tell us where to send it, the competitive price is the one on the quote.

- Aurora expects a permit for most new residential fences.
- HOA
- Master associations are common east of E-470 and in many south Aurora filings. Central Aurora is more mixed.

Weather on this fence
What the climate asks of a Aurora fence
The east side of the metro is open to plains wind and to hail that marches up I-70. Snow load is moderate. The bigger wear is sun on south and west runs and grit blown against the lower boards.
Materials that fit
Vinyl privacy is popular where an HOA wants a uniform color that does not chalk. Cedar still fits older central lots. Check the plat for an easement before you fall in love with a line drawn on the satellite photo.
The $ budget tier
These crews are carefully vetted for quality work and craftsmanship, but they use cheaper materials that don't carry a warranty and they won't warranty the work either. The product is good for an under 10 year timeline. Everyone still carries the necessary insurance and any license their city requires. Contractors at this tier may not accept credit cards or offer financing.
Fence styles for a Aurora lot
Cedar dog-ear is the standard option. Craftsman cedar is the upgraded privacy style, on the higher budgets. Chain link is galvanized or black vinyl-coated, at 4 ft, 5 ft, and 6 ft, with the same walk and drive gates. Wood picket, vinyl, composite, aluminum, iron, and custom include 4 ft, 5 ft, and 6 ft. Split rail is an open wood post-and-rail fence, about 4 ft as 2-rail or 3-rail, with optional wire mesh. Answer a few quick questions, tell us where to send it, and see your price right away.

The map opens centered on Aurora with satellite imagery and street labels. Your street address recenters it. A line on that photo is not the property line: the contractor confirms it from a survey or plat and calls 811 before digging. The contractor desk records this city funnel on the lead.
Aurora questions
Why do Aurora estimates talk about easements?
A lot of Aurora plats reserve a strip for utilities along the rear or side. These notes say the fence may have to step in. The contractor confirms that on the plat, not from the satellite sketch.
Can the HOA pick the color after FenceOwl prices the job?
The price follows the style and tier you chose. If an association requires a specific vinyl color, say so in the custom note or at the visit so the material line matches the approval.
Is Southlands priced like central Aurora?
The map centers on Aurora and pricing covers the city. The matched crew still has to serve that part of town. The lead records that you started on the Aurora page.
