Navigating Campton Hills Fence Codes

The Village of Campton Hills has a detailed Zoning Ordinance designed to preserve its semi-rural feel. We manage all the technical details for you:

• Height & Placement Standards:

  • Rear & Side Yards: A fence or wall of any type is permitted up to 8 feet in height—perfect for high-end privacy and large-scale estate security.

  • Front & Corner Side Yards: Non-privacy (open) fences are permitted up to 52 inches (4 feet, 4 inches).

• The "Finished Side Out" Rule: Village code requires that the finished side of all fences must face away from your lot, ensuring a clean and professional look for the community.

• Prohibited Materials: To maintain property values, Campton Hills prohibits chain link in residential districts. We specialize in the approved alternatives: Western Red Cedar, Ornamental Aluminum, and high-end Vinyl.

• Septic & Well Clearances: Most Campton Hills homes rely on private systems. We use your Plat of Survey to ensure all fence posts maintain a safe distance from your septic tank and seepage field to prevent costly damage to your infrastructure.

 

Hardscaping: Patios & Stone Design in "The Hills"

With Campton Hills’ varying topography, a patio must be as much about engineering as it is about aesthetics.

• Drainage First: We design our patios to work with the natural flow of your land. Per Village code, we ensure your hardscape does not block or alter established drainage paths or easements.

• Permit Management: We handle the $200 plan review fee and the permit process through the Campton Hills Building & Zoning Department.

• Solid Foundations: Because of the local soil composition, we use a reinforced compacted gravel base for all paver projects to prevent shifting during the freeze-thaw cycles.

 

Seasonal Maintenance: The Campton Township Standard

We time our maintenance services to match the Campton Township Solid Waste Disposal District schedules:

• Weekly Yard Waste: We manage the bagging and bundling of debris for collection (April 1st – December 15th). We ensure all bundles are tied with twine and meet the 4-foot length / 50-pound limit.

• Subscription Cart Support: If you utilize the 95-gallon yard waste cart program, we can manage your weekly overflow (up to three additional bags) without the need for stickers.

• Fall Brush Pick-Up: We coordinate our major pruning to match the semi-annual bulk Brush Pick-up programprovided by the Campton Township Highway Department.
