Most jobs are measured, permitted if required, and installed within a two to three week window once materials land. Homeowners in the unincorporated portions off Powerline Road and west of 441 face one consistent headache: contractors who assume Boca Del Mar follows City of Boca Raton permitting rules. It doesn’t. We know how Palm Beach County handles fence permits in 33433, and we pull them correctly the first time. Call (877) 610-1318 to schedule a free estimate.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Boca Del Mar’s Preferred Fence Installation Company
We’re the crew your neighbor waves at when we’re unloading Simonton fence panels off Palmetto Park Road, or when we’re finishing up Bathroom Remodeling - Boca Del Mar projects nearby. Barrett & Sons Construction has been owner-operated since 1998, and when we say owner-operated, that means Tom Barrett and his sons show up on the jobsite in Boca Del Mar. Not a rotating cast of strangers from a national dispatch board. Tom’s name, his Miami-based office, and his license number are published where anyone can look them up. That’s deliberate. A customer who lives in the villas off Camino Real shouldn’t have to wonder who’s actually standing in their backyard.
We’re familiar with the fence lines behind the single-family CBS homes that dominate this community. We know that Boca Del Mar has zero municipal building department, which means every fence permit runs through Palm Beach County’s system. Out-of-area contractors get tripped up on this constantly. We don’t. It’s our backyard too. When you call us, a live person answers at (877) 610-1318 and schedules a time that works around the afternoon rain patterns that roll through south Palm Beach County from May through October.
Our Fence Installation Services in Boca Del Mar
Wood Fence
Wood fencing in Boca Del Mar holds up better when the posts are set below the mucky zone and the pickets have room to swell and shrink through the humid season. The shallow water table around Boca Del Mar, often just two to four feet down, means post holes need gravel drainage and occasionally a dewatering plan if we hit saturated ground. We build with pressure-treated pine and cedar, and we don’t bury the first course of pickets in soil, which is the fastest way to rot a fence line in this climate.
Chain Link Fence
Chain link remains the practical choice for Boca Del Mar residents who want to fence a dog run or secure a side yard near the low-rise condo buildings without building a fortress. Galvanized posts set in concrete hold up well on Boca Del Mar’s flat, sandy lots, even in the high-velocity hurricane zone. We use commercial-grade mesh and terminal posts at every corner and gate hinge. If your HOA along Boca Del Mar’s residential streets requires a specific height, we’ll match it.
Vinyl Fence
Vinyl fence installation in Boca Del Mar runs $3,500 to $9,000 for a typical backyard enclosure. Vinyl’s advantage here is simple: it doesn’t absorb the humidity that wood does, and it won’t corrode like cheap metal after years of salt-heavy air rolling in from the Atlantic. We stock Ply Gem and PGT vinyl lines for Boca Del Mar customers, which means faster turnaround on replacement sections when a tropical storm throws a branch through a panel. We set vinyl posts in concrete with drainage stone at the base, which prevents the buckling we see on fences installed by crews who don’t account for Boca Del Mar’s groundwater.
Aluminum Fence
Aluminum fencing gives Boca Del Mar households a clean sightline around pools and patios without the weight or rust profile of iron. It’s a smart choice for the CBS-built homes that shape this area, where heavy iron posts can stress older concrete footers. Aluminum fence installation in Boca Del Mar typically runs $4,000 to $10,000. Our team sizes every panel to the exact property line and checks Palm Beach County’s code requirements before the first post goes in.

Trusted Brands We Service in Boca Del Mar
We’d rather install materials you can research than mystery brands off the back of a van. That’s why Barrett & Sons Construction carries Simonton, Ply Gem, and PGT fencing lines that are rated for the wind-load requirements enforced across south Palm Beach County. If a section gets damaged after a storm, we can source a matching replacement panel locally for Boca Del Mar customers without making you wait six weeks. We also work on Fence Installation projects that go beyond picket and panel work, including gate retrofits and full perimeter enclosures. If your property needs a gate that swings or slides cleanly off a driveway, we’ll size the hardware to the load, not the other way around.
Common Fence Installation Problems We See in Boca Del Mar Homes
- Permit confusion between county and city rules. Boca Del Mar is unincorporated Palm Beach County, not City of Boca Raton. Contractors who pull permits assuming city inspectors will sign off get failed inspections. We schedule County inspections from the start.
- Rot and rust at ground level. The shallow water table and summer humidity in 33433 mean posts set without drainage stone tend to chew themselves apart within a few seasons. We build for the moisture, not against it.
- Wind-load failures on older fences. Boca Del Mar’s CBS homes were built before Hurricane Andrew, and many original fences were never engineered for the current high-velocity hurricane zone requirements. A panel that looks fine can fail when a strong storm shoves it sideways. We spec fasteners and post depth accordingly.
- HOA height and style mismatches. Several neighborhoods in Boca Del Mar enforce specific fence heights and material rules. We check the association guidelines before we order materials, so you don’t get a six-foot vinyl wall rejected by a deed restriction.
Pricing for Fence Installation in Boca Del Mar, FL
A standard vinyl fence installation in Boca Del Mar lands between $3,500 and $9,000 depending on linear footage, gate count, and whether we’re pulling old concrete footings. Aluminum ranges $4,000 to $10,000. Wood usually falls in the $3,500 to $9,000 band for a similar footprint. What moves the number: property width, gate hardware, whether the old fence needs demolition and haul-off, and whether Palm Beach County requires a permit with wind-load documentation. We never hand you a phone price and then show up with a different number. Every scope, every allowance, every price change arrives as a written change order before work happens. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact written quote on your Boca Del Mar fence. Estimates are free, and a live person picks up the phone.

Permits for fence work in Boca Del Mar route through Palm Beach County, not the City of Boca Raton, because Boca Del Mar is unincorporated. We pull the required permits and schedule County inspections as part of the job. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, which is exactly why we like him on every job.
Most fence installations in Boca Del Mar are finished within two to three weeks from the time materials arrive, which typically means one to two days of on-site work for a standard backyard. Weather and county inspection scheduling can add a day or two, especially during the summer rain season. We give you a written timeline before we break ground.
No, not unless the scope changes, and even then, every price adjustment arrives as a written change order before a single additional piece of material is ordered. We don’t work on verbal promises. If a post hole reveals buried concrete or a collapsed old footer, we stop, show you what we found, and put the cost on paper for your approval first.
Every fence installation we complete is covered by our 90-Day Done Right Promise, written on the contract, not hidden anywhere. If something’s not done right, one call brings Tom Barrett back to the Boca Del Mar property to make it correct. We also honor manufacturer warranties on Simonton, Ply Gem, and PGT materials.
We schedule free estimates in Boca Del Mar within a few days of your call, often sooner, and we work around your availability, not the other way around. A live person answers at (877) 610-1318 and can get you on the calendar for the next available slot. No trip charge inside the county.
