Big Jerry’s Fencing, Chapel Hill Permitting Requirements

Chapel Hill has its own Unified Zoning Ordinance and may have different municipal requirements depending upon its location.

Fence Permit

Fences require a residential permit prior to installation. Properties within Historic Districts, Resource Conservation Districts, or the Jordan Buffer require additional review beyond standard fence permits. Big Jerry’s Fencing can help property owners navigate these technicalities, understand them, and apply for permits.

Orange County Jurisdiction

Some parts of the Chapel Hill town limits fall under Orange County regulations with different municipal requirements. A Zoning Compliance Permit (ZCP) is required for fence installations within its boundaries. For properties located in Durham County boundaries, an additional permit on the county level is not needed.

I had Big Jerry’s install a 4 foot wooden privacy fence in a yard of a home my wife and I recently purchased. The home had an irrigation system for which I had a few very details on where the plumbing actually was located since I didn’t install it. Edwin and the guys from Jerry’s were very diligent in ensuring the didn’t hit the irrigation system while they were hand digging the post holes. I really appreciated this. The fence looks great. They cleaned up and left my yard clean of debris. Very happy with their work.

The estimator at Big Jerry’s was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and much more helpful than the others I spoke with. Their price was the best too. The crew showed up on time, explained our options for the slope, and even helped coordinate with our neighbors on the shared side. Smooth experience from beginning to end

We have an open field behind us and the gate takes a beating from the wind. Big Jerry’s came and fixed our gate and now we have no issues at all. Professional and friendly to the max! Thanks for everything that you do!

Highly recommend Big Jerry’s for anyone looking to install a fence in their yard. They are professional. Their prices are competitive and reasonable.They respond to questions quickly.. They are very efficient in communicating. The installation crew are punctual and clean up after themselves. We have a sloped yard and they did an amazing job making our fence look smooth and seamless. We liked them so much, that we brought them back to do another smaller decorative privacy fence. The quality of the fences are. Excellent. We used an aluminum (4’ Elon) fence for the perimeter of the yard, and the horizontal wood fence (skyline deluxe ) for the privacy decorative fence.

We recently had a project with Big Jerry’s Fencing that presented a few challenges along the way, but I’m happy to say they went above and beyond to make things right. From start to finish, the team was professional, responsive, and committed to ensuring we were completely satisfied with the outcome.

When an issue arose, they handled it with care and made the necessary adjustments at no additional charge, even offering credits for minor damage to replaceable items on our property. Their dedication to standing by their work and putting the customer first truly set them apart.

Overall, the quality of their service and craftsmanship exceeded our expectations, and we are very happy with the end result. I would highly recommend Big Jerry’s Fencing to anyone looking for a company that values its customers and delivers on its promises.

The entire Big Jerrys team made the entire process very enjoyable. From design to completion they were communicative and always helpful. Front office & sales staff were stellar. The Cannonball & aluminum fence they installed on our property is quality & absolutely gorgeous. Fredy & Ramon are the Picasso of fence installation. My man KB came through with the beautiful pre-stain & even came back to touch up after installation was done. Overall 10/10, look no further for your fencing needs.

We needed a new fence and Big Jerry's were so easy to work with. The submission and quote process was simply and quick. Prices are competitive and we elected to have our wood pre-stained. The final product is beautiful and the quality materials used ensure our fence will stand up to the elements. After installation was complete, they came out to touch up the stain and confirm their high standards were met. The customer service rivals the workmanship for the top seed. They are patient with questions and eager to help us understand the installation process. Thank you KB and team for making this an easy, fun, and exciting experience.

Big Jerry’s is one of the easiest, friendliest, most responsive and professional contractor to work with. They made everything so easy from initial quote through final payment. The workmanship is beautiful and the price was more than fair. Their sales team is very helpful, accommodating, and not pushy. We had a backyard fence installed within 2 days and they team took no shortcuts. My husband and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. Our dog especially loves his new space!
