No matter how small the upgrade, New York City residential projects must protect pedestrians and neighbors from job-site hazards. A code-compliant construction fence is the first layer of safety and a visible sign that your project is being run professionally. CountBricks delivers end-to-end construction fence NYC services—instant AI budgeting, permit filing, material procurement and certified installation—so homeowners can focus on design, not red tape.
• Dense foot traffic and narrow sidewalks require extra setback planning
• Department of Buildings (DOB) mandates solid plywood, 8 ft minimum height, painted hunter green
• Daily sanitation, lighting and signage inspections are enforced by city agencies
• Limited curb space means delivery timing can make or break your budget
CountBricks’ local field teams know these constraints by heart and weave compliance costs directly into your AI estimate. No last-minute change orders, no fines.

3. AI parses DOB zoning layers and auto-generates an itemized construction fence NYC line in under 30 seconds
4. Approve the estimate and e-sign the digital permit application prepared by our expediters
5. Materials are dispatched from a borough-based lumber yard aligned with your schedule
6. CountBricks carpenters install and paint the fence, affix required project signage and activate motion-sensor lights

Because CountBricks integrates live vendor pricing, your estimate reflects the day-of quotation, not last month’s catalog. Homeowners typically save 9-12 % compared with static spreadsheets.
Pressure-treated lumber resists salt splash from winter street plowing, but paint quality is equally critical. CountBricks specifies an industrial acrylic enamel with a 4-year colorfast warranty. Our AI prompts substitute coatings automatically if the forecast shows prolonged humidity—preventing peeling and call-backs.

• Contractor license and after-hours variance laminated and mounted
• Self-closing gate armed with keyed lock after 4 p.m.

CountBricks inspectors cross-check each bullet during installation and upload photographic proof to CountBricks.com/portfolio for your records.

• Dedicated permit expediting team averages 42 % faster approvals
• In-house carpenters specialize exclusively in residential sites—no learning curve on your dime

How fast can CountBricks install a construction fence NYC homeowners need?
Standard townhouses can be fenced within 48 hours of permit issuance. Rush service is available for emergency stabilizations.
Can I reuse the fence for future phases?
Yes. Panels are modular and labeled in the CountBricks inventory app. We re-deploy them when you tackle the rear yard or roof deck—saving another filing fee.
Does CountBricks handle sidewalk shed integration?
Absolutely. Our structural division designs shed frames that bolt directly to the fence, maintaining a single protective envelope and reducing clutter.

When a Park Slope homeowner decided to excavate for a garden-level rental, they faced two challenges: an aggressive 10-week timeline and a sidewalk café next door that limited staging. CountBricks stepped in with a realtime voice walk-through, capturing every logistical obstacle in under ten minutes.
• AI detected the adjacent outdoor dining permit and automatically added a noise-attenuating plywood spec, preventing future disputes
• Our expediters filed for a partial street occupancy permit, scheduled material deliveries before 8 a.m., and avoided café peak hours
• Carpenters prefabricated fence panels off-site, allowing a same-day install that shaved two full days off the schedule
• Zero DOB violations during the entire excavation phase
• Fence reuse saved the client $1,870 when the project shifted to façade repair three months later
• Overall project finished nine days ahead of schedule, freeing budget for upgraded landscaping
• Book your voice consultation at least two weeks before demolition to lock in lumber pricing
• Ask CountBricks to include a “swing gate” module if large equipment might arrive later—retrofitting is costlier
• Keep your fence freshly painted; DOB can issue violations for chipped surfaces even if the structure is sound
