Common Questions

In Kelowna, you generally do not need a permit if the fence is 2.0 metres (6.5 ft) or less in height for backyards and 1.22 metres (4 ft) or less for front yards. Fences exceeding these heights or those on steep slopes may require a development permit starting at approximately $150-$265.

Chain link remains the most affordable at $15 to $30 per linear foot installed. However, pressure-treated wood is the most common budget privacy option, typically costing between $25 and $45 per linear foot in 2026.

Due to high demand for rot-resistant local materials, a professional cedar fence installation in Kelowna currently ranges from $70 to $90 per linear foot, depending on the grade of wood and whether it is pre-stained.

Yes, it is standard practice in Kelowna to share the cost of a boundary fence. This can reduce your individual project cost by 50%, bringing a typical $6,750 project down to $3,375 per household.
