Wauwatosa has some of the best-kept older neighborhoods in the Milwaukee area: the bungalows and Tudors around the Village, the historic homes of Washington Highlands, and the postwar ranches on the city’s west side. Tosa homeowners tend to care how a fence looks, not just what it does, and so do we.
Fencing Tosa’s Older Neighborhoods
- Detached garages and alleys. Many east-side Tosa homes have a garage at the back of the lot. A fence that ties the garage to the house, with a gate where you actually walk, closes off the backyard neatly.
- Close neighbors. On narrower lots, we confirm the property line and plan the fence with both neighbors in mind.
- Style that fits the house. Cedar picket fences, lattice tops and tongue-and-groove boards suit the age of these homes far better than a plain stock panel.
- Parkway lots. Homes near the Menomonee River Parkway and Hart Park see deer and rabbits; a fence of the right height protects the garden.

Wauwatosa Fence FAQs
