Northeast · Dartmouth–Lake Sunapee Region
The Dartmouth–Lake Sunapee region — Hanover, Lyme, New London, Etna, Norwich (just across the river), Sunapee — combines academic-town wealth with country estates and working New England farms. Deer and bear pressure is significant, and our nearly invisible fence systems protect serious garden investment without disrupting the country views.
Regional planning guidance; your property's conditions and installation eligibility need individual review.
Local wildlife
Upper Valley deer densities are high year-round, with very active bear, coyote, and fisher populations. A real physical fence is the only durable answer for orchards and serious gardens.
Lots & terrain
Properties commonly run from 2 to 50+ acres of meadow, woodland, and pasture. We're efficient on long rural perimeters.
Tuned to Dartmouth–Lake Sunapee Region-area pests
Deer, rabbits, groundhogs, and woodchucks each need a different fence spec. We design garden enclosures for the specific pressure on your Dartmouth–Lake Sunapee Region property.
Ground-line details
Mesh spacing and apron details should match the browsing and digging animals affecting your garden.
Walk-in gates that actually work
Wide, latching gates that fit a wheelbarrow — designed for the way Dartmouth–Lake Sunapee Region gardeners actually use their gardens.
Compatible with raised beds and orchards
From a 400 sq ft kitchen garden to a 2-acre orchard, we scale the design to your Dartmouth–Lake Sunapee Region property without overbuilding.
Plan the enclosure
Properties commonly run from 2 to 50+ acres of meadow, woodland, and pasture. We're efficient on long rural perimeters.
Identify which animals are browsing or digging before choosing mesh and ground-line details. Leave practical access for tools, wheelbarrows and seasonal maintenance.

Free virtual consultation to finished install — scheduled around your property.
Free consultation + pest assessment
We identify what's actually browsing your garden — deer, rabbits, woodchucks — and design around the real pressure, not generic defaults.
Garden layout design
Perimeter routed around how you garden: wheelbarrow paths, hose access, sun exposure, raised-bed orientation.
Site prep around mature beds
Light hand clearing only. Existing beds, irrigation, and plantings are protected throughout.
Frost-depth posts + tiered mesh
Galvanized posts to local frost depth. Tight bottom mesh against rabbits, full-height mesh against deer.
Buried apron where needed
Woodchuck pressure zones get a buried or surface-laid apron — not optional in New England gardens.
Wheelbarrow gates + walkthrough
Wide self-latching gates installed and tested. Final walkthrough confirms the ground line is sealed.
What to expect on the logistics side of a Dartmouth–Lake Sunapee Region-area install.
Fence height, setbacks and approval requirements vary by municipality and property. Check with your local authority and HOA before installation. Obtaining permits and submitting HOA paperwork are the homeowner's responsibility; specification sheets and renderings are available on request for your application.
Weather, ground conditions, access and required approvals can affect scheduling. Your written proposal confirms the installation timing for your property.
The four most common reasons Dartmouth–Lake Sunapee Region-area homeowners end up replacing a fence twice.
Chicken wire as the whole answer
Chicken wire stops nothing meaningful. Deer push through, rabbits crawl through the holes, woodchucks tunnel under in one night.
Going short to save money
A 5-foot garden fence keeps almost nothing out in New England. Deer go over, woodchucks go under. Better to fence smaller at full spec than bigger at half spec.
Skipping the apron
Woodchucks tunnel under any fence that isn't aproned. We bury or lay flat by default in pressure zones — most DIY installs skip it.
Bad gate design
If the gate doesn't fit a wheelbarrow you'll prop it open. If it doesn't latch automatically you'll forget. Either way the garden gets browsed.
