Reno is high desert: dry, sunny and windy, with cold nights that freeze and thaw for much of the year.
Height limits depend on your zone and where the fence sits on the lot, and many Reno and Sparks neighbourhoods have HOA rules on top.
Check with the City of Reno, or Sparks or Washoe County if you're outside city limits, before you build. A local fence contractor will know the current rules.
Common questions
How long does a wood fence last?
Typically 15–20 years for cedar with staining or sealing every few years, less for untreated pine.
Do I need my neighbour's permission?
Not usually for a fence on your own property, but it's good practice to talk first and to know exactly where the line is.
Do I need to know exactly where my property line is?
It helps a lot. If you're not sure, a survey or your plat map avoids building on a neighbour's land. Many contractors can advise on this.
