From the coastal neighborhoods of Wrightsville Beach to the established trees of Forest Hills, we deliver precision craftsmanship on every project.
Wilmington isn't just where we work — it's where we're from. Flytrap Fence has installed hundreds of fences across the Cape Fear region, and our reputation here is built on a simple idea: hire honest, hardworking people, train them well, and stand behind the work. That's what we do every day, on every job.
Whether you live in the historic neighborhoods of Midtown, the upscale communities of Landfall, the family-friendly streets of Ogden, or anywhere across New Hanover County, we understand what makes Wilmington special. The humidity and salt air that come with coastal living, the architectural character of our older neighborhoods, the growing new developments in Porters Neck and Monkey Junction—we've installed fences in every corner of this city and we know exactly what works here.
With 500+ fences installed throughout Wilmington and a perfect 5.0 Google rating, we've earned the trust of homeowners across every neighborhood. We're fully licensed and insured in North Carolina, backed by a comprehensive 5-year warranty, and committed to treating your property like our own. When you choose Flytrap Fence, you're choosing a locally rooted company that's proud to call the Cape Fear region home.
Wilmington is the New Hanover County seat and the population center of the Cape Fear region, with our service area spanning zip codes 28401, 28403, 28405, 28409, 28411, and 28412. The historic district downtown — bounded roughly by 5th Avenue, Castle Street, the Cape Fear River, and the rail yard — has its own preservation rules that affect fence height and material choices for properties inside that boundary. Newer corridors like Porters Neck, Ogden, Mayfaire, and Monkey Junction operate under conventional subdivision HOAs. We've installed fences in all of them, and the right approach varies significantly between a 1920s home in Sunset Park and a 2024 build in River Bluffs.

View DetailsFrom the close-set lots downtown and in Carolina Place to the mature-tree backyards in Forest Hills and Pine Valley, Wilmington jobs often mean tight access, narrow gates, and older underground utilities. We dig by hand where we have to and we're patient with property-line clarification — important on lots where the original survey pins are buried under fifty years of landscaping.
Wilmington's humidity, salt air, and 80%+ annual relative humidity break down lesser-built fences fast. We spec galvanized fasteners, stainless screws where exposure warrants it, and material/treatment combinations chosen for the city's specific climate — not a generic inland build. Every install is backed by our 5-year workmanship warranty.
New Hanover County's permitting process for fences varies by district — historic-district properties need preservation board sign-off, properties near regulated wetlands require additional buffer verification, and HOA-governed neighborhoods layer their own review on top. We know which jobs need which permits and handle the paperwork end-to-end. Fully NC-licensed and insured.
Every five-star Google review on our profile is from a Wilmington-area customer — not bought, not solicited from out-of-market jobs. Drive any neighborhood in town and there's a real chance you'll pass one of our fences. Word of mouth between neighbors in Mayfaire, Ogden, and Landfall has been our best marketing.
We work everything from a 30-foot side-yard infill in Sunset Park to a 600-foot perimeter fence in Porters Neck, and the approach is different on each. Historic-district considerations downtown, HOA architectural review in upscale communities, and cookie-cutter ease in newer subdivisions — we adjust the design and crew schedule to the property type, not the other way around.
