Learn MoreQuality fence installation for Goshen homeowners, farms, and businesses, serving Elkhart County with 15+ years of local experience.
Goshen has a character that's distinct from its neighbor Elkhart: smaller in scale, with a strong sense of community rooted in its Amish and Mennonite heritage, a thriving arts scene, and a mix of long-established neighborhoods alongside newer subdivisions. The agricultural presence on Goshen's outskirts means we field regular calls for farm perimeter fencing and livestock containment. In town, vinyl fencing fits naturally with the aesthetic of Goshen's well-kept residential streets, and we've installed privacy fences and picket fencing on properties throughout the city. Goshen homeowners tend to value durability and honest workmanship, which suits us just fine.
Vinyl fencing is popular in Goshen's residential neighborhoods for privacy and curb appeal. Agricultural and farm perimeter fencing is common on properties outside the city limits. We also handle chain-link for commercial and light industrial applications throughout the county.
We offer a full range of fence installation and supply services throughout Elkhart County.

Learn MoreGoshen handles its own building permits through the City of Goshen Building Department. The process is straightforward for most residential and commercial properties, but properties in or adjacent to Goshen's historic overlay district in the downtown core require an additional approval step before a standard permit is issued. The historic district covers much of the original platted city near the courthouse square.
The City of Goshen Building Department is located at Goshen City Hall, 204 E. Jefferson Street. For properties in or near the downtown historic overlay district, contact the Goshen Department of Planning and Zoning to determine if historic review applies before starting the permit application.

Goshen's older residential neighborhoods generally do not have formal HOAs, but newer developments on the city's east and south edges often do. Agricultural parcels in the township are outside city jurisdiction and have no HOA oversight, though Elkhart County zoning rules still apply.
Goshen's soils share many characteristics with neighboring Elkhart: heavy clay in much of the established residential core, with better-draining loam on higher ground east of the city. Clay soil requires careful post installation to account for seasonal movement.
Properties near the Elkhart River on Goshen's north side have elevated water tables and silty soils that complicate standard post-setting. Lots in those areas may need deeper footings or modified installation techniques to get stable, long-lasting results.
Farmland on Goshen's outskirts has some of the most productive agricultural soils in Elkhart County. That same heavy, compacted loam that grows corn and soybeans is challenging to auger. We use commercial-grade equipment on rural installations to get to the required frost depth without beating up the machinery.
Goshen's established residential streets, particularly on the west and north sides of the city, have well-maintained properties where homeowners take long-term pride in curb appeal. Vinyl picket fencing and privacy fencing fit naturally on these lots. White and tan are the dominant color choices.
Agricultural operations on Goshen's outskirts and in the surrounding Elkhart County townships generate regular calls for perimeter fencing. We install woven wire, high-tensile, and board fence for livestock operations and property boundaries. Dairy and beef cattle operations are common in this area.
US-33 runs through Goshen as a major commercial and industrial corridor. Businesses along this stretch, including manufacturing suppliers, distribution facilities, and commercial storage operations, need perimeter chain-link and security fencing. We handle those installations with the same process we apply to industrial sites in Elkhart.
Goshen's downtown historic neighborhoods attract owners who invest in restoring their properties. Fencing on these lots needs to match period-appropriate styles and materials. Vinyl picket and ornamental aluminum are the materials that tend to pass historic review while providing genuine durability.

“We had Area Wide put in a 6-foot vinyl privacy fence along the back property line and both sides of our yard. The quote was accurate to the penny and the crew finished in two days. Our dogs finally can't get out (if you've met our younger one, you know that's no small thing). We've already recommended Josh to two neighbors.”
“We have a cottage on Wawasee that needed new railing on the dock and a fresh deck off the back of the house. Josh came out, walked the whole property, and flagged a few things the previous owner had done that weren't up to code. He was upfront about what we needed and why. The aluminum railing on the dock has held up beautifully through two winters now.”
“We manage a storage yard off the bypass in Elkhart and needed about 400 feet of 8-foot chain-link with a drive gate on one end. Area Wide came out fast, gave us a competitive quote, and had the whole thing done in three days. The gate latches solidly, the posts are set properly, and it hasn't shifted at all. Straightforward to deal with from start to finish.”
“I wanted a classic white picket fence across the front of my property without the headache of maintaining wood. Josh helped me pick the right panel style for the look I was going for and the installation was clean and fast. Every post is perfectly plumb. You can tell this crew has done it a few thousand times. Very happy with how the yard looks now.”
“We were trying to define the property line along the shoreline of our Maxinkuckee lot without blocking the view or running into trouble with the lake association. Josh knew exactly what was and wasn't allowed and designed a low aluminum fence that works perfectly. The sandy soil right at the water's edge wasn't a problem. He used the right anchoring method and everything is solid.”
“We had Area Wide build a 14x18 composite deck off the back of our house. From the permit to the final walkthrough it was handled professionally. Josh flagged a grade issue in our yard that would have caused drainage problems under the deck if we hadn't addressed it. Something we never would have caught ourselves. The deck is solid, level, and looks exactly like we hoped. Worth every dollar.”
“We had 180 feet of old rotted wood fence along our alley that had been falling apart for years. Area Wide pulled the old posts, hauled everything off, and had new vinyl up in a day and a half. No mess left behind, and the new fence is exactly what we needed. The crew showed up when they said they would and got right to it. Couldn't ask for better.”
“Had them build a 12x16 pressure-treated deck with aluminum railing. Josh gave us a clear quote with no surprises. The crew worked through a rainy stretch and still finished on schedule. Railing is solid and looks sharp. No issues since install, and we use the deck constantly in the summer.”
“We needed railing on our dock platform on Lake Manitou. Josh knew the DNR permit requirements ahead of time and walked us through the process before we started anything. The aluminum railing has been up through a full Indiana winter and looks the same as it did on day one. Solid work and no guessing games along the way.”
“Got 6-foot chain-link across the back and one side of a rental property we manage. The price was fair and the work was good. Took about a week longer than the original estimate because of a materials delay, but Josh called ahead to let us know. Good communication and a clean result. Would use them again.”
“We had Area Wide run 800 feet of high-tensile perimeter fence around part of our Marshall County property. They handled the heavy clay and uneven terrain without any issues. Posts are set well, fence is tight, and everything held up through a wet spring. Good crew, good price, no complaints.”
“Needed about 600 feet of 8-foot chain-link with barbed wire around a storage yard we lease on the north side of Elkhart. Area Wide gave us a competitive quote and had it installed in four days. The work was exactly what we asked for, the gate operates smoothly, and the posts aren't going anywhere. Reliable contractor.”
