Chain Link Fence that suits Creve Coeur properties.
Chain link is the most cost-effective way to enclose a Creve Coeur yard, and it's still the best choice when the goal is containment rather than privacy — dogs, kids, pools, equipment yards. Homeowners fencing for dogs and privacy on small, close-set lots. It also goes up fast, handles odd lot shapes without custom panels, and is the least expensive fence per foot we install.
How we build it here
We install galvanized and black vinyl-coated chain link in Creve Coeur on schedule-40 terminal posts with proper tension bands, brace bands, and a top rail — not the light residential kit a big-box crew throws up. Mixed fill and river sand — post depth and footing width get adjusted lot by lot. Mesh is stretched with a come-along so it stays drum-tight, and we can add privacy slats or a bottom tension wire to keep dogs from pushing under.
Most chain-link yards are done in a single day.

What Creve Coeur customers say.
“We had a chain-link fence installed for our backyard and dogs. Communication was easy, the pricing was reasonable, and the finished fence looks great. They also made sure the gates opened smoothly and were placed exactly where we needed them.”
“Tazewell County Fence Co. installed woven wire fencing around part of our property, along with a large equipment gate. They explained the different post options, gave us a clear estimate, and helped us choose something that fit our budget. The fence looks strong and everything was completed professionally.”
“A section of our fence was damaged during these storms, and Tazewell County Fence Co. was able to repair it without trying to sell us an entirely new fence. The repaired section blends in well with the rest of the fence, and the price was fair.”
Chain Link Fence questions from Creve Coeur homeowners.
- How much is chain link fence per foot in Creve Coeur, IL?
- Installed chain link in Creve Coeur typically runs $15–$28 per linear foot depending on height, gauge, and whether you choose galvanized or black vinyl-coated. A 150-ft backyard usually lands between $2,250 and $4,200.
- Is black chain link worth the upgrade?
- In most Creve Coeur backyards, yes. Black vinyl-coated mesh visually disappears against grass and trees while galvanized silver stands out, and the coating adds a corrosion layer. It's usually a modest per-foot premium over galvanized.
- Can chain link keep my dog in?
- Yes, with the right details. We spec 4-ft or 5-ft height for most dogs, add a bottom tension wire so the mesh can't be pushed out, and set gate latches high enough that a smart dog can't work them. For diggers we can run a buried apron.
- Do I need a permit for chain link in Creve Coeur?
- Creve Coeur requires a village permit; tight lot lines make an accurate survey worth the small cost.
