Learn more →A fence in Toms River has a harder job than a fence almost anywhere else in New Jersey. It has to hold its line through nor’easters that blow up the Barnegat Bay, shrug off salt haze that drifts across Fischer Boulevard, and stay anchored in sandy soil that gives ordinary post footings nothing to grip. Toms River Fence Co. exists for exactly that job: fences specified, set, and finished for shore conditions.
We install vinyl, wood, aluminum, and chain link fencing for homeowners across Toms River — from the older colonials near downtown and Huddy Park, to the ranches of Silverton and East Dover, to the big corner lots off Route 37 in North Dover. Every installation is handled by registered, insured installers, and every quote is free, written, and itemized so you can compare materials line by line.
Most fence failures in Ocean County trace back to two things: posts set too shallow for sandy soil, and materials that were never meant to live near salt water. We address both before a single hole is dug. Posts go below frost depth in concrete footings sized for the soil on your street, not a one-size-fits-all spec. And we’ll tell you plainly when a material is wrong for your block — untreated steel near the bay, for example, or a stained wood privacy fence on an exposed waterfront lot that will need recoating every other year.
The paperwork matters here too. Toms River requires a zoning permit for every fence, with real rules about height, open-style fencing near the street, and stricter limits within 20 feet of water. We prepare the details you need — fence type, height, and placement on your survey — so your application goes through clean the first time.
Whether you want backyard privacy in a new build off Bay Avenue, a code-compliant pool enclosure, or a repair after the last coastal storm, request your free estimate. A local crew will look at your property, talk through options honestly, and give you a number that holds.

Toms River Fence Rules: Permits, Heights & Property Lines (2026 Guide) — Do you need a fence permit in Toms River, NJ? Height limits, front-yard openness rules, pool fence code, and how to apply — a plain-English 2026 guide.
Yes. Toms River Township requires a zoning permit before any fence goes in, though a full construction permit is only needed for pool enclosures. You'll need a survey or aerial photo showing the fence location, plus the fence type and height. We walk you through the paperwork as part of every estimate.
From the front building line back — along the sides and rear of your lot — fences can be up to 72 inches (6 feet). Between the building line and the street, fences must be open-style and no taller than 48 inches, and lots within 20 feet of water are limited to open 48-inch fencing as well.
Vinyl and powder-coated aluminum are the two we recommend most for East Dover, Shelter Cove, and other bayside sections. Salt air corrodes untreated steel and dries out stained wood quickly, while vinyl and aluminum need little more than an occasional rinse.
Yes — sandy Toms River soil is exactly why post depth and concrete footing size matter here more than in most of New Jersey. Posts are set below frost depth in properly sized concrete footings, which is the difference between a fence that leans after two nor'easters and one that stays plumb for decades.
Most Toms River estimates are scheduled within a day or two of your request. You'll get a written quote with material options and line-item pricing — no vague ballparks.
Yes. New Jersey's pool barrier rules require at least a 48-inch fence with self-closing, self-latching gates that swing away from the pool. Pool enclosures are also the one fence type that needs a construction permit in Toms River, not just a zoning permit.
We do. Many 55+ communities in Toms River have their own architectural rules on fence height, color, and style, so we help you match your HOA's requirements before anything is ordered.
