Fence Options to Fit Every Property and Purpose
At Haughey Brothers Landscaping, we believe a well-built fence should do more than just mark a property line—it should serve a purpose, complement your home’s style, and stand the test of time. That’s why we offer a range of fencing materials, each with its own benefits depending on your needs for privacy, security, durability, or aesthetics. Here’s a closer look at your options:
Vinyl Fencing
Vinyl is a popular low-maintenance option that offers a clean, modern look and long-lasting durability. It’s perfect for homeowners who want privacy without the upkeep of wood. Vinyl won’t rot, warp, or require painting—and it comes in various colors and styles, including full-privacy panels and decorative picket options.
Best for: Privacy, curb appeal, low maintenance
Great for: Backyards, pool enclosures, residential properties
Wood Fencing
There’s nothing quite like the timeless charm of natural wood. Whether you want a classic picket fence or a tall privacy barrier, wood offers versatility and warmth. While it does require periodic staining or sealing, many homeowners love the traditional look and natural beauty it brings to the landscape.
Best for: Warm, natural aesthetics and custom designs
Great for: Backyard enclosures, garden fencing, privacy screening
Aluminum Fencing
Aluminum fencing is both elegant and strong, providing a high-end look without the rusting issues of traditional wrought iron. It’s commonly used for decorative purposes and pool fencing, offering security and style without obstructing views.
Best for: Decorative accents, pool safety, open visibility
Great for: Front yards, pool areas, and properties with views to preserve
Chain Link Fencing
Chain link is a practical and budget-friendly fencing solution that offers durability and security with minimal maintenance. It’s a great choice for enclosing large areas, securing pets, or defining property lines without a big investment.
Best for: Functionality, security, affordability
Great for: Side yards, dog runs, utility areas, commercial properties

Questions About Fence Installation?
Do you install gates with the fence?
Yes, we install gates as part of your fence project, and we can add multiple gates if needed. Whether you need a walk-through gate, double gate for vehicle access, or a custom-sized solution, we’ll make sure it’s functional, secure, and matches the style of your fence.
Do you set fence posts in concrete?
Absolutely. For long-lasting strength and stability, every post is set in concrete. This prevents shifting, leaning, and sagging over time—especially in areas with freeze-thaw cycles or heavy winds.
How tall can my fence be?
Fence height depends on your location and the purpose of the fence. Most towns allow up to 6 feet for backyard fences and around 4 feet in front yards, but local zoning regulations can vary. We’ll help you determine the correct height based on municipal guidelines and your specific goals (privacy, pool safety, etc.).
Do I need a permit to install a fence?
In many New Jersey towns, a permit is required before installing a new fence. We’re familiar with the local requirements and can assist with or guide you through the permitting process to ensure everything is compliant.
What if I don’t know exactly where my property lines are?
Accurate property lines are essential to avoid future disputes. If you’re unsure, we recommend referring to your property survey or hiring a licensed surveyor before installation. We’ll build the fence within your legal boundaries to ensure full compliance and avoid issues with neighbors.
Can you replace an old fence or remove existing fencing?
Yes, we can remove and dispose of old fencing as part of your project. Whether you’re replacing a broken-down fence or upgrading for a new look, we’ll handle the entire process from teardown to cleanup.
Do you offer custom fence designs or special features?
Yes! We can customize fences with decorative post caps, lattice toppers, privacy enhancements, gates with latches or locks, and more. Our team works with you to create a fence that looks great and functions exactly how you need it to.
How long does fence installation take?
Most residential fence installations are completed in 1–3 days, depending on the size of the project, site conditions, and weather. We’ll provide a timeline up front and keep you informed every step of the way.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Haughey Brothers to complete several improvements to our home, including an entire new landscape design and installation for our front yard, planting privacy trees on our side yard, a river rock design around our pool, playground mulch installation and sod installation in the backyard. We are so happy that we decided to go with Haughey Brothers, as the completed work came out so much nicer than we could have ever imagined. From start to finish, Devin, Ethan and his team maintained great communication and completed their work in a timely manner, especially considering all the rain they had to work around.

We had a great experience with Haughey Brothers, which influenced our decision to use them for our year-round lawn service. Ethan made multiple site visits prior to us signing a contract so we could share our vision, and he was able to execute in an extremely fast manner.

I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a great landscaping team.
We recently hired Haughey Brothers Landscaping and we couldn’t be happier with the results!

They offer a huge variety of services, and we’ll be using them for flower installation, weekly lawn mowing, fall leaf cleanups and aeration & seeding too.

Haughey Brothers Landscaping did an excellent job with lawn and edging. We appreciated the service.
This is an amazing company from start to finish. We were having trouble finding reliable landscapers in the Chatham area. A lot of not call backs, no shows etc. Called Devin and he came by same day to give me an estimate on landscaping services. I received a quote same day and they began work two days later. Devin’s team is professional, hard working and the quality of their work is impressive. Everything is easy and hassle free when dealing with this company and their work speaks for itself. Pictures below. Couldn’t recommend this team more.
Hired Haughey Brothers Landscaping this year to do a major drainage project that would divert water accumulating at the base of the front of my house to stop basement and garage flooding that was occuring after major rain events. The project worked great and the flooding has stopped. Adding some photos that show the work being done and videos that show the water not accumulating in front of the house and one video showing the water being diverted down my driveway at the back of my house down to the street.
Highly recommend HAUGHEY brothers for landscaping projects. They did an amazing job planting trees for privacy and also cleaned up and redesigned our beds. They were great to work with and everything turned out beautiful.
Haughey Brothers recently completed extensive landscaping work on our front and side yards. They did an absolutely amazing job! The appearance of our home was totally transformed in two days! Both Devin and Ethan are honest, knowledgeable and very easy to work with. Their staff also arrived on time and were total professionals too.
I recently had a new walkway installed by Haughey Brothers Landscaping and was very pleased with the results. It was completed in one day within a week of my first contacting them. The before and after photos speak for themselves.
Haughey Brothers Landscaping did a fantastic job with our backyard patio! Their team did amazing, we are very pleased.
Ethan and Devin (the Haughey Brothers) are awesome! They are responsive, professional, reliable and do great work for a reasonable price. They are hard workers and always go above and beyond, while getting things done on time (and as promised). I recommend them for all of your landscaping needs.
We are very happy with the work done by the Haughey Brothers and their crew. In addition to doing a Spring cleanup and mulching, they transformed two neglected areas of our property making them useful and beautiful. Ethan was easy to work with and had some great ideas to improve the landscaping of the property. Will definitely use them again. A couple of before and afters:
Devin and Ethan are extremely nice, punctual, and do fantastic jobs. I needed something relatively urgent done, and they were able to meet up, quote, change/revise quote for some other options, and on a short notice, they were able to accommodate a next day project done that originally was planned for at least 3-4 weeks out. I'll recommend them to anyone in the area that needs landscaping done!
Best in Union county!! Very responsive and did an amazing job on our landscaping! Will always be using them from now on!!
My husband and I highly recommend Ethan and Devin and their crew for any type of landscaping or hardscaping needs you have. I can't say enough good things about how professional, friendly, courteous and on time they always were each time they came to our home. They also left their work area very clean at the end of each day which is very important. What had started out as simply replacing a tired old swing set playground in our backyard turned into much more. They showed us previous work photos they did for fire pits with patios and we were immediately hooked. We are incredibly happy with our new backyard fire pit area and cannot wait to use it. They picked out beautiful plants and shrubs for the surrounding fire pit bed and also installed lighting into the pavers. It looks so pretty at night. They completed the job in record time too!!! We wouldn't hesitate to use them again for any other project we have. Thank you!!!!
We had been scouting for a landscaping company for quite some time and we are so glad we decided on Haughey Brothers! Devan & Ethan were very thorough, professional and all the employees were extremely kind and efficient. Great communication and never hesitated to answer any of our questions. They revamped our entire front yard along with the side of the house adding color and life back to it! Looking forward to more projects in the future!
Thank you to Ethan and his team! Our property looks the best its ever been, with new shrubs, trimming, and landscaping details. We appreciate working with you and trust your guidance for our property. Great work!!
