Covington packs a lot onto narrow lots. Homes in MainStrasse, Mutter Gottes, and Wallace Woods sit close together with alley access out back, and yards above the Ohio River often come with a slope or a retaining wall. A fence here has to fit the space and the rules of the street.

We measure from the plat, walk the access route, and check the local requirements before we quote, so the number you get is the number the job needs.

What Covington homeowners say

Read the reviews
We recently had our fence installed by Heartwood, and we are absolutely thrilled with both the finished product and the entire experience. From day one, Natalie set the tone with her incredible customer service.
Sarah Hysong, Covington, KY
We found Heartwood Fence after seeing the excellent work they did for our neighbors one street over. Those neighbors were extremely satisfied and I can say we are as well with our new fence.
Stephanie Winters, Covington, KY
Customer satisfaction from the start. Dedicated project manager, Natalie, oversaw construction to meet my needs. Worked through pop up rain at times to complete my project without any issues.

Historic district rules are real

Several Covington neighborhoods carry a historic overlay, and design review can dictate material, height, and placement before a post goes in. It is not optional and it is not fast. We check for an overlay on your parcel and file what needs filing.

Hillsides and tight access

River-hill yards rarely give a machine a clean path. Where access is too tight we hand-dig, and where the ground slopes we rack or step the panels so the top line stays clean. You see the method priced into the quote up front.

What works in Northern Kentucky

  • Wood privacy fits the older lots and gives full screening between close neighbors.
  • Aluminum passes historic review more easily than most materials and keeps a river view open.
  • Vinyl shrugs off the river humidity with no maintenance cycle.
  • Chain link covers alley lines and dog runs at the lowest cost per foot.

One crew, and a warranty in writing

Our crews work across Kenton County every week, and the workmanship warranty is a document, not a handshake.

How it works

  1. 1

    Walk the line with us

    We meet you at the property, walk the fence line, mark the corners, and talk through height, style, and gate placement. You get a written number before we leave or the same day.

  2. 2

    We handle permits and locates

    Utility locates, permit paperwork, and HOA submittals are on us. We confirm the property line with your plat so the fence lands where it belongs.

  3. 3

    Build, inspect, and warranty

    Our crew sets posts, hangs panels, and hauls off the debris. We walk the finished line with you and back the work in writing.

Common questions

My street is in a historic district. Can I still build?
Usually yes, with design review approval. We check the overlay on your parcel and handle the filing before the quote goes out.
How do you handle a sloped yard?
We rack panels to the grade where we can and step them where the pitch is too severe, and we price hand-dig access when a machine cannot reach the line.
Do you handle the permit?
Yes, including any historic district paperwork. Covington and Kenton County requirements differ by location and we file with the right one.
Do you cover Newport, Fort Mitchell, and Florence?
Yes, across Kenton, Campbell, and Boone counties.
