Dundalk's older residential blocks sit on ground that shifts and settles differently than newer developments, and that matters when you're installing or repairing a fence. The neighborhoods around 21222 have a mix of modest single-family homes, some with tight lot lines and shallow setbacks, and many with the kind of soil and drainage patterns that put real demands on post installation and gate hardware.
Baltimore Fence Company has been serving Dundalk and the surrounding Baltimore area since 2012. We understand the local conditions that affect how a fence holds up, and we know the city's setback rules, height limits, and permit requirements. When a Dundalk homeowner needs a new fence, a repair that will actually last, or a gate that works reliably, they call us at (667) 213-5362.
Fencing in Dundalk (21222)
Dundalk's older blocks present real challenges for fence installation. The ground here tends to be softer and wetter through humid summers, and it shifts more readily under shallow footings than you'd find in newer developments. That's why post depth, concrete setting, and proper spacing matter more here than they do everywhere else. A fence post set too shallow or tamped instead of concreted will lean within a season or two. We set posts deep, in concrete, with proper spacing and bracing to handle the ground conditions we actually see in 21222.
We install wood and vinyl privacy fencing, chain link, aluminum and ornamental iron, and gates of every type. We repair fences that have shifted, sagged, or come loose. We replace individual posts and rails, rebuild storm-damaged sections, and handle gate repairs and replacement. Our team is fully insured, and we've been doing this work in Dundalk and the Baltimore area for over a decade.

How a Fence Job Works in Dundalk
We start with a free on-site assessment. We'll walk your property, look at the ground, check your setback lines, and talk about what you want and what the city allows. We'll also confirm that any utility lines have been located before we dig. Maryland law requires a Maryland 811 utility locate before any digging, and we handle that as part of the job.
Once we've assessed the site and you've approved the estimate, we schedule the work. Our crew will mark the fence line, set posts at proper depth in concrete, install rails and pickets or panels, and handle any gates. If your lot has tight access or if the ground is particularly soft or wet, we plan the work to manage those conditions. Many Dundalk properties have limited side-yard access, so we come prepared to work efficiently in tight spaces.
When the fence is up, we clean up all debris, remove staging materials, and walk through the finished work with you. You'll have a fence that's built to handle Dundalk's ground and weather, installed to code, and backed by our experience.
Pricing for fence work in Dundalk depends on what you're installing and the condition of the ground. A wood privacy fence starts at $32 per linear foot. Vinyl runs from $44 per foot. Chain link, which is popular for properties with tight budgets or where a more open fence makes sense, starts at $19 per foot. Aluminum and ornamental iron fencing runs from $48 per foot. A simple gate repair might start at $495, while a new gate installation begins around $495 and automatic driveway gates start at $3,000. Storm damage assessment is free. For fence replacement or removal, we quote based on the scope, with typical jobs starting around $2,600. The best way to know what your fence will cost is to call us at (667) 213-5362 for a free estimate. We'll look at your site, understand what you need, and give you a realistic price.
