Farragut Fence Questions, Answered
The rules that actually apply inside the Town of Farragut — and the two that catch people out.
How tall can a fence be in Farragut, TN?
The Town of Farragut does not require a building permit for fences up to seven feet. Anything taller does require a permit. That is more permissive than the City of Maryville, which treats a fence over six feet as an accessory structure. Height limits are separate from zoning, setback and plat requirements, and HOA covenants are usually stricter than the town.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Farragut?
Not for a fence up to seven feet. You do need one for a fence over seven feet, and separately for any fence serving as a swimming pool barrier, which is inspected against the 2018 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code. Farragut Codes Office: (865) 966-7057.
Can I build a fence on an easement in Farragut?
You can, but at your own risk. A fence placed in a utility, drainage or construction easement may be removed and is not required to be reinstalled. Not relocated at the utility's expense — removed. Many Farragut back yards have easements running through them that are invisible from the surface, so check the plat before planning the layout.
Will a fence affect stormwater drainage on my lot?
It can, and Farragut regulates it. A fence is not permitted where it would impede the free flow of stormwater. On a sloped lot or along a drainage swale, a solid privacy panel can act as a dam. The fix is often a shadowbox or spaced-picket section at the low end, which is also easier on the posts.
Does my Farragut HOA have to approve my fence?
Almost certainly. Farragut is dense with covenanted subdivisions, and covenants commonly restrict height below the town's seven feet, limit material and color, and require the fence to start at the rear corners of the house. An HOA cannot permit what the ordinance forbids, but it can be stricter — and in Tennessee an association can place a lien over covenant violations. Get approval in writing.
Which side of the fence faces my neighbor?
The smooth, finished side faces outward; rails and posts stay on your side. That is convention, frequently an HOA requirement, and it makes the fence harder to climb from outside. Board on board and shadowbox styles finish both faces. Full answer here.
What does a fence cost in Farragut?
Roughly $10–40 per linear foot for chain link, $14–50 for wood privacy, $19–60 for vinyl and $24–70 for ornamental aluminum, installed. Labor is about half to sixty percent of the total, so terrain, slope and gates move your number more than material choice alone. See the 2026 breakdown.
Why do fences lean in Farragut yards?
East Tennessee red clay swells when wet and shrinks as it dries, working posts out of plumb over a few seasons. Parts of Farragut also have shelf rock within a couple of feet of the surface, and the cheap response to hitting rock is setting the post shallow — which is the post that leans first. How post depth and drainage actually work.
Do I have to call 811 before installing a fence?
Yes. Tennessee requires a utility locate before excavation and post holes count. Budget about three business days. Private lines — irrigation, invisible dog fence, gas to a grill, power to a shed — are never marked. What gets marked and what doesn't.
Who owns the fence between two houses in Tennessee?
A fence on the boundary is a partition fence under Tennessee Code 44-8-202, and both adjoining owners generally share ownership and the cost of upkeep. If your neighbor later uses it as their boundary, they may owe a proportional share. Tennessee partition fence law explained.

What Makes Farragut Fence Installation Different
Farragut isn’t just any suburb. It’s one of the most affluent communities in Tennessee, with strict HOA standards and homeowners who care deeply about curb appeal. A sloppy fence stands out here. Every fence we build in Farragut is installed with the same precision we’d put into our own yard.
Farragut also has terrain challenges. The neighborhoods along Concord Road and near Fort Loudoun Lake sit on rolling ground. Slopes require racked panels, careful post placement, and precise measurement. A crew that isn’t experienced with grade changes delivers a fence that looks off from day one. We’ve been working this land for over 50 years.
HOA Fencing in Farragut — We Know the Rules
Most Farragut subdivisions have HOA requirements — height limits, approved materials, setback requirements, and sometimes color restrictions. Village Green, Fox Den, Bridgemore, and Montgomery Cove all have their own standards. We’ve worked in these neighborhoods enough to know what typically gets approved. We recommend getting written HOA approval before installation — we can advise on styles likely to pass, but approval is the homeowner’s responsibility.
Wood Privacy Fences in Farragut — Built for East Tennessee Soil
Board-on-board and shadow-box privacy fences are the most popular in Farragut backyards. We use ground-contact rated pressure-treated pine — the right material for East Tennessee’s clay soil and humidity. Posts are set in concrete at the proper depth. We don’t cut corners on post depth, because that’s what causes fences to lean within a few years. Ours don’t.
Vinyl Fencing in Farragut — Clean Look, No Maintenance
Vinyl is the low-maintenance choice for Farragut homeowners who want a clean appearance without annual upkeep. No painting, no staining, no rotting. We install privacy, picket, and semi-privacy vinyl panels. For sloped yards common in Farragut’s hillier neighborhoods, we use racked panels that follow the grade smoothly rather than stair-stepping, which looks far better and closes the ground gap.
Ornamental Aluminum Fencing in Farragut
Ornamental aluminum is popular in Farragut for front yards, pool enclosures, and decorative perimeter fencing. It provides security without blocking sightlines, and the powder-coated finish won’t rust or need painting. Many HOAs approve aluminum where they won’t approve wood or vinyl. We install standard and custom-height aluminum panels in classic and contemporary profiles.
Fence Permits in Farragut
Most fence installations in Farragut require a permit from the Town of Farragut. The permit is pulled in the homeowner’s name. We advise you on the process and what documentation you’ll need. Don’t skip the permit — fence violations in Farragut result in fines and mandatory removal.
