Rocky Top Fence Questions
Northern Anderson County near Norris Lake, where ridge terrain shapes every job.
Do Anderson County rules apply in Rocky Top?
Rocky Top — formerly Lake City — is incorporated with its own ordinance. County rules govern unincorporated property outside the limits. Establish which side of the line your parcel sits on before planning.
What are the county rules outside town?
Fences seven feet or lower are exempt from building permits. But front yards or fences abutting a public road must observe a 25-foot setback from the right-of-way, and within the 75-foot intersection visibility zone nothing — fence, wall or hedge — may exceed 3.5 feet above road centerline grade.
Does Norris Lake frontage change the job?
Yes. Waterfront means a higher water table, so drainage at the base of the post matters more, not less. A footing that cups and holds water against the post is where rot and corrosion start. Ornamental aluminum handles the environment better than steel.
What about the ridge terrain?
Northern Anderson County runs into genuine ridge country. Sloped runs must be stepped or racked to follow grade — commonly 10 to 25 percent added to installed cost — and shallow rock means post holes that will not simply auger.
What happens when a crew hits rock?
The cheap answer is setting the post shallower, and that is the post that leans within three seasons. Ask any contractor bidding your job what they do at rock. There is a right answer.
What fence suits acreage up here?
Woven wire and board fence for livestock, split rail where appearance matters on rural frontage. On long runs, corner and gate bracing determines whether the fence holds — not the wire gauge.
What does fencing cost around Rocky Top?
Farm and field fence roughly $12–30 per linear foot, wood privacy $14–50, chain link $10–40, ornamental aluminum $24–70 — before slope. Costs by length.
How do I handle a line running through woods?
Clear it and establish the boundary before setting anything. Tennessee has no statute drawing your line — the deed and county plat govern, and a fence left in the wrong place long enough can affect where the legal line runs.
Who owns a fence on the boundary?
A partition fence under Tennessee Code 44-8-202. Adjoining owners generally share ownership and upkeep, and where one property is agricultural and the other is not, the non-agricultural owner may file a written disclaimer. Full explanation.
Do I have to call 811 before digging?
Yes — post holes count as excavation. About three business days. On rural and lake property, private runs to barns, wells, pumps and docks are common and never marked. Full 811 guide.
