Chain Link Fence that suits Peoria properties.
Chain link is the most cost-effective way to enclose a Peoria yard, and it's still the best choice when the goal is containment rather than privacy — dogs, kids, pools, equipment yards. City homeowners replacing aging fence, rental owners needing durable enclosures, and small commercial sites. 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 Peoria 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. Loess over clay; older neighborhoods hide a lot of buried slab, brick, and old post footings. 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 Peoria customers say.
“They removed our old wood fence, cleaned up the debris, and installed the new fence without leaving a mess behind. The whole process was straightforward, and we always knew what the next step would be. I would definitely recommend them.”
“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.”
Chain Link Fence questions from Peoria homeowners.
- How much is chain link fence per foot in Peoria, IL?
- Installed chain link in Peoria 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 Peoria 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 Peoria?
- The City of Peoria requires a fence permit with a site plan; historic districts add a design review step.
