Local Fence Rules Explained

Knowing Idaho’s fence laws helps you avoid fines, disputes, and costly mistakes. Ignoring these rules can lead to fines, legal troubles, and extra expenses.

Important Fencing Rules in Idaho

• Fence Height Rules: Standard regulations allow 6-foot backyard fences and 4-foot front yard fences. Variances may be required for taller fences.
• Fence Placement Rules: Fences should typically be installed within your property boundary. Hire a surveyor to clarify property lines.
• Joint Fence Ownership: If you share a fence with a neighbor, communication and agreements are essential to avoid disputes.
