Action Fence Company of Chattanooga, family-owned since 1981, installs wood, vinyl, aluminum, chain link, and farm fence in Ooltewah, Hamilton County, Tennessee, from our office in Hixson, about 25 to 30 minutes away. Most Ooltewah addresses are unincorporated Hamilton County, where fences 7 feet and under need no building permit; parcels inside Collegedale go through the city instead.
Do I Need a Fence Permit in Ooltewah?
Usually not. Most Ooltewah addresses are unincorporated Hamilton County, where fences 7 feet and under are permit-exempt. Addresses inside Collegedale's limits go through Collegedale Building and Codes instead. The two are interleaved, so we confirm the parcel before quoting.
What Is the Ground Like in Ooltewah?
Mostly deep, well-drained, cherty soil over limestone, in the Wolftever Creek valley with White Oak Mountain to the east. Some low lots hold water: homes on Hunter Road outside the mapped floodplain have flooded repeatedly, and wet ground changes how we set posts.
What Are Homes and Properties Like in Ooltewah?
Fast-growing subdivisions: housing units in the area grew 56 percent between 2010 and 2019. HOA neighborhoods include Hamilton on Hunter, Hampton Creek, Barnsley Park, Flagstone, James Creek, and The Reserves at Canterbury Fields, and architectural review is common.
What Are the Landmarks in Ooltewah?

Common Questions
Fence Questions From Ooltewah
Something else on your mind? Call (423) 842-8700 and ask.
Does my Ooltewah HOA need to approve the fence?
In many subdivisions, yes. Architectural review is common in Ooltewah's HOA neighborhoods, and each covenant sets its own heights and styles. Get the approval before the fence goes in, and we'll build to it.
Who issues my fence permit in Ooltewah?
Hamilton County for most addresses, and fences 7 feet and under are exempt. If your address is inside Collegedale, the city's Building and Codes office handles it. We check before we quote.
How long does the install take?
Most installs take about two days. The estimate comes first, free and on site, so we can measure the line and talk through styles with you.
