Vienna, VA
Super Fabrications builds fences across Vienna, VA and greater Fairfax County — wood privacy, vinyl, and black aluminum, plus automatic gates. We hold a VA Class A contractor license, handle permits and Miss Utility locates, and give free on-site estimates. Our shop sits minutes away in the Dunn Loring industrial park, so Vienna yards get fast scheduling.
Fence installation in Vienna
Vienna sits inside the Beltway's western arc, where mature lots in Wolftrap and the streets around the Vienna Community Center favor tall wood privacy runs along rear property lines. We build those in pressure-treated pine or cedar, set posts below frost depth in concrete, and keep the finished face toward the neighbor as the town expects. Shorter open fences — spaced pickets, low aluminum — suit the front yards along Maple Avenue's residential side streets, where sight lines stay tight.
Vinyl privacy is the low-maintenance answer for Vienna backyards near the I-66 corridor, where road noise and full sun push owners toward solid six-foot panels in white or tan. Aluminum works the other direction: black open fence around gardens, play areas, and pools keeps the yard visible while the line stays crisp. We rake panels to follow grade instead of jumping every section.
Gates get the same attention as runs. A Vienna walk gate rides on adjustable hinges with a drop rod where two leaves meet, and driveway gates take a LiftMaster operator when you want to close the drive from the car. Before we call any job done, we walk the finished fence with you.
Small details decide whether a Vienna fence ages well. Post caps keep water out of the end grain on wood runs, gate frames get corner bracing so the leaf slammed shut every school morning stays square, and pet owners get closer picket spacing at the bottom, set so the escape artist in the yard meets a wall instead of a gap.
Snow storage, trash day, and the walk to the Vienna Community Center all shape where a gate belongs. We ask about the routine before we ask about the line, then place latches and drop rods so the fence serves the day you actually live. It is the difference between a fence that photographs well and one that works.
Wood choices split by neighborhood rhythm. Cedar costs more and grays toward silver if you skip the stain; pressure-treated pine starts lower and takes a darker stain beautifully by the second season. Vinyl, in white or tan, splits the difference by refusing to change at all. We lay the three side by side at the estimate and price the maintenance out loud, so the fence you pick is the one you will still like in year eight.
Two lines cover most Vienna yards: see wood fence installation for shadowbox, board-on-board, and cap-and-trim styles, or vinyl fence installation for panels that skip the staining cycle. For closing the driveway at night, see automatic gate installation.
Repair and replacement
Vienna storms split boards and lean runs, and a shared line makes the neighbor's opinion part of the job. We reset posts, replace panels, and match the existing profile so the repair disappears into the run. Every repair closes with the same walkthrough a new build gets, so you know exactly what was tightened.
We reset leaning posts and replace storm-split boards so the run matches the rest of the line.
When a Vienna fence has outlived its posts, we pull the old line, haul it away, and rebuild on the same footprint.
Driveway gates with LiftMaster operators suit Vienna's shorter drives, and we service operators, hinges, and locks.

Cost
Fence pricing in Vienna tracks material and footage more than the address. A typical planning range puts wood privacy at $30–$60 per linear foot installed, vinyl at $40–$70, and open aluminum at $40–$75, and your estimate confirms the number. Lot size rarely moves Vienna's per-foot rate, but corner-lot rules and town review time belong in the planning math.
| Wood privacy (per linear foot, installed) | $30–$60 |
|---|---|
| Vinyl privacy (per linear foot, installed) | $40–$70 |
| Aluminum open fence (per linear foot, installed) | $40–$75 |
| Walk gate | $600–$1,500 |
| Old fence removal | Quoted on the estimate |

Permits
The Town of Vienna reviews fences under its own zoning ordinance, so county shortcuts do not apply here. Zoning Ordinance §18-410 sets fence heights: 4 feet in front yards, 6 feet on interior side yards, 4 feet on corner side yards, and 6 feet in the rear. On corner lots, height is limited to 4 feet between the extension of the neighbor's front building line and the right-of-way. Finished sides face the street and adjoining properties, barbed wire is prohibited, and a front-yard fence climbs to 6 feet only with a conditional use permit.
The Town requires a zoning permit for fence work, and Planning and Zoning (DPZ@viennava.gov) is the office that reviews it — we prepare and submit those applications for you. Before digging starts, we call Miss Utility at 811 for the free utility locate the law requires. Pool fences follow Virginia's barrier rules: at least 48 inches tall with self-closing, self-latching gates.
Preparation keeps Vienna's review short. Our submissions carry the measured site plan, proposed heights for each yard, and the materials list, so Planning and Zoning reviews a complete picture instead of trading letters with us. Straightforward residential applications move without a hearing; conditional use permit cases for taller front-yard fences take longer, and we schedule around that reality rather than promising past it. On corner lots, we draw the neighbor's front building line right on the plan, so the 4-foot zone is visible to everyone before stakes hit the ground.
Questions we hear most in Vienna: what counts as the front yard on a pie-shaped lot, whether a garden gate needs the same permit as a full run, and how close to the sidewalk the fence can sit. Each answer starts with the same move — pull the parcel, read the setbacks, then talk heights. Bring those questions to the estimate and we will have the drawing ready before the proposal is signed.
FAQ
Yes — the Town of Vienna requires a zoning permit for fences, reviewed by Planning and Zoning (DPZ@viennava.gov). Heights follow §18-410: 4 feet in front and corner side yards, 6 feet on interior sides and in the rear. We prepare the application, submit it, and schedule the Miss Utility locate before any post goes in the ground. You approve the staked line before the first hole is dug, and the permit goes in with the drawing attached.
Most Vienna wood privacy fences land between $30 and $60 per linear foot installed, with vinyl at $40–$70 and open black aluminum at $40–$75; walk gates add $600–$1,500. Corner lots, slopes, and old-fence removal move the figure. Your estimate confirms the number for your exact yard, and town review time belongs in your planning math alongside the footage.
Inside town limits, §18-410 allows 6 feet on interior side yards and in the rear, and 4 feet across front and corner side yards. Corner lots carry the tighter rule: 4 feet between the extension of your neighbor's front building line and the right-of-way. Front-yard fences reach 6 feet only through a conditional use permit. We draw the height zones on your plat before quoting, so the numbers come from the drawing rather than a guess.
Solid privacy panels quiet the road side: six-foot wood shadowbox or vinyl in white or tan absorbs the view and takes the edge off the noise. Interior side and rear placement keeps you inside the 6-foot limit. Open black aluminum suits the garden and pool corners where visibility matters more than screening. A cap-and-trim top adds mass on the road side without breaking the six-foot rear limit.
We handle both. The zoning permit goes to Town Planning and Zoning, and we submit it with the fence plan we draw on site. Miss Utility comes out free through the 811 call, so buried lines are marked before we dig. You sign one proposal that covers design, permits, materials, and installation. You get one calendar with the review, the locate, and the crew days on it.
