Regina fencing contractor pricing
What fencing contractors should charge in Regina
Regina fencing is dominated by privacy fencing for post-WWII bungalow backyards across Glencairn, Walsh Acres, and Normanview, The Crescents and Lakeview estate ornamental ironwork, pool fence compliance (Saskatchewan Building Code), and commercial security fencing for RCMP Depot Division and provincial government. City of Regina permits for fences over 1.8m. Saskatchewan Building Code applies. Adjacent rural municipalities (RM of Sherwood, RM of Edenwold, RM of Lumsden) have separate permitting. Coldest-capital frost heave (frost line 2.4m+, deepest of any major Canadian capital) drives post-depth requirements. Many Regina fences cycle every 8-12 years due to freeze-thaw.

CAD $395-$1,170 per linear metre for custom ornamental ironwork; modern aluminum CAD $245-$585/LM; frameless glass CAD $445-$895/LM.
