Fencing is not a compulsory trade in Ontario. No specific licence is required. However, most municipalities require a fence permit for new installations, and fence height and setback bylaws vary by municipality (typically max 6ft in backyards, 4ft in front yards). Swimming pool fencing has specific requirements under Ontario Building Code section 3.1.8 (minimum height, self-closing gates, non-climbable design). Property surveys are strongly recommended before fence installation.
