Top Fence Contractor for Your Home or Business in Nicholasville, KY
Chafin Fence LLC builds and repairs residential, commercial, and farm fencing across Nicholasville, Wilmore, and Jessamine County. Licensed, insured, BBB accredited, and fifteen minutes down US-27 from our Lexington shop — with a 5-Year Craftsmanship Guarantee on every install.
A Lexington fence company that treats Nicholasville like home turf.
Nicholasville has grown fast — new subdivisions off US-27 and Brannon Crossing, established neighborhoods closer to downtown, and working farms and horse properties toward Keene, Wilmore, and the Kentucky River. Each of those needs a different fence, and we've built all of them.
Chafin Fence is based at 2071 Enterprise Circle in Lexington, a short drive up Nicholasville Road, so a free on-site estimate in Jessamine County isn't a favor — it's a normal Tuesday. We walk the line, check the setbacks and utilities, and put a firm price in writing.

Get these in writing from whoever you hire. Here's where Chafin stands on each.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, both. Chafin Fence LLC is a licensed Kentucky contractor carrying general liability insurance, and we're a BBB Accredited Business.
Have you worked in Jessamine County before?
Regularly. We know the county's zoning, the limestone that shows up two feet down, and which subdivisions want architectural approval first.
Can I see references — old and new?
Absolutely. Browse 145 real installs in our project gallery, read our reviews, and ask us to point you to a fence near you.
Is the quote itemized — posts, depth, materials, gates?
Always in writing. Material grade, post depth and concrete, gate hardware, removal of the old fence, and a firm timeline — before any deposit.
Who handles permits and utility locates?
We do. Zoning checks, any required permit, and the Kentucky 811 locate are part of every job — you never dig blind.
What happens if the work fails?
We come back and fix it. Every installation carries our 5-Year Craftsmanship Guarantee on top of manufacturer warranties.
What's different about fencing in Nicholasville.
Every county in Central Kentucky has its own quirks. These are the ones that come up on Jessamine County jobs.
Zoning approval & height limits
Nicholasville and Jessamine County typically review fence height (commonly up to 6 ft in rear and side yards, lower out front), setbacks, and corner-lot sight lines. Rules differ inside city limits versus the county — we confirm yours.
HOA architectural review
Many of the newer subdivisions off US-27 require HOA sign-off on material, color, and height before a permit. We supply the drawings and specs the committee asks for.
Kentucky 811 & property lines
State law requires a utility locate before digging; we call it in. If your pins are missing or the line is in doubt, we'll recommend a survey before the first post — cheaper than moving a fence.
Rock, clay, and frost
Jessamine County ground can go from clay to limestone in the same yard. We set posts below the frost line in concrete and bring the equipment to get through rock without shortcuts.
