Navigating Warrenville Fence Codes

The City of Warrenville (3S258 Manning Avenue) has specific guidelines to ensure safety and neighborhood harmony. We manage all the technical details for you:

• Height & Placement: * Rear & Side Yards: Maximum height of 6 feet (measured from the finished grade).

  • Posts: Fence posts may extend an additional 6 inches above the maximum height (total 6' 6").

• The "Finished Side" Rule: Warrenville requires that the finished side of the fence must face the abutting property or the street. We ensure all structural supports and posts are on your side of the lot line.

• The 2-Foot Vision Triangle: To ensure traffic and pedestrian safety, solid fences over 2 feet in height are prohibited in the "Vision Clearance Triangle" at driveways and street intersections. We calculate these triangles precisely to keep you in compliance.

• Easement Expertise: Fences may be placed in utility or drainage easements, but they must not block the flow of water. We ensure your design allows for proper drainage to prevent pooling in your or your neighbors' yards.

• Boundary Verification: Warrenville requires a final inspection where property boundaries are verified. We help ensure your property marker irons are exposed and ready for the inspector.

 

Hardscaping: Warrenville Patios & Stormwater Integrity

Warrenville is a "complete waiver community" for DuPage County Stormwater Management, meaning the City handles its own reviews and permits.

• Permit & Plan Submittal: We handle the City of Warrenville building permit and the required Plat of Surveysubmittal showing the exact patio location.

• Base Engineering: We use a professional-grade compacted stone base for all paver and stone patios, exceeding local standards to prevent shifting in the DuPage County soil.

• Private Property Drainage Assistance: If your yard has existing water issues, we can help design a patio or drainage solution that may align with the City’s Private Property Drainage Assistance Program.

 

Seasonal Cleanups: The "Groot" Schedule Experts

We time our maintenance to match Warrenville’s seasonal collection through Groot Industries:

• April to November Yard Waste: We manage the bagging of leaves and debris for your weekly collection. We ensure all waste is in biodegradable bags or 32-gallon rigid containers with the required $3.09 sticker.

• Subscription Cart Support: If you use the 95-gallon yard waste toter program, we manage your weekly overflow to ensure your property stays tidy without the hassle of stickers.

• Seasonal Brush Pick-Up: We coordinate our major pruning to match Warrenville’s monthly zone-based brush pickup (April, May, September, and October). We ensure branches are bundled and staged by 7:00 AM on your zone's designated Monday.

• Christmas Tree Recycling: We offer removal services for the free collection window during the first two weeks of January.
