Fences for Murrayville's subdivisions and the dogs that live in them
North Wilmington filled in quickly over the last few decades, and many of those backyards still need a fence or a better one.
Murrayville is the stretch of north Wilmington and unincorporated New Hanover County around Murrayville Road, between Market Street and I-40, built up mostly with subdivisions from the 1990s and 2000s. Lots are typical suburban size, many back onto other lots or retention ponds, and a lot of the calls are about dogs: a fence high enough for a jumper, a gate that latches every time, a bottom edge a digger cannot get under.
For dogs, the fence you need depends on the dog. Jumpers need height, so five or six feet. Diggers need a kickboard or a bottom tension wire, and sometimes a buried barrier along the base. Climbers need a smooth face without footholds. We ask about the dog before recommending a style.
Lots that back onto a retention pond often have easement or HOA limits on how close a fence can go, and the ground near the pond is softer. We check the plat and set posts accordingly.
