Serving ZIP 33183
Three Lakes (ZIP code 33183) is a lake-centered Kendall neighborhood where most rear lot lines carry a lake maintenance easement, so we verify easement width from the recorded plat before setting any post and typically install aluminum picket on the water side.
Three Lakes sits in the SW 132nd to SW 142nd Avenue area around SW 104th Street, a quieter 1970s and 80s neighborhood organized around its lakes and a mix of single-family homes and villas. Many original owners are still here, and many original fences are finally being replaced.
The neighborhood name is the fencing brief: water on many rear lines, easements to respect, and view corridors the community values.
Every Three Lakes project starts with the plat. Lake maintenance easements here can extend a surprising distance inland from the water, and a fence inside the easement can be ordered removed at the homeowner's expense years later. We measure from the recorded control point, mark the legal line with paint and flags, and walk it with you before we dig.
Occasionally that means the new fence sits several feet inside where the old fence stood. When that happens we show you the plat page, because nobody should give up yard on our word alone.
The most common request in Three Lakes is a fence that contains a dog or a toddler without walling off the water. Four-foot or five-foot black aluminum picket does exactly that: it disappears visually against the bank, it satisfies pool barrier requirements when placed and hardware-equipped correctly, and it does not take wind load off the lake.
For dogs that test the bottom of a fence, we add puppy pickets — extra pickets on the lower third — which closes the spacing to under 2 inches without changing the look from a distance.
Three Lakes irrigation and drainage is 40-plus years old and rarely mapped. We call Sunshine 811, honor the markings, and hand-probe the fence line for irrigation laterals and old French drains before augering. Where the risk is high, we hand-dig.
We also extract old concrete footings rather than setting new posts beside them. Leaving old footings in place is the fastest way to end up with a crooked fence line, and it is one of the most common shortcuts we are called to correct.
Water-side rear lines and pool enclosures that keep the lake view.
6-foot privacy on side lines between neighboring lots.
Code barriers on pools built before current Florida requirements.
Post resets and panel replacement on 40-year-old fence lines.
It depends on the lake maintenance easement recorded on your plat, which frequently extends well inland from the waterline. We measure and mark the legal line before digging, because a fence built inside an easement can be ordered removed at the owner's responsibility.
Four-foot or five-foot black aluminum picket with puppy pickets on the lower third. The added pickets close spacing to under 2 inches so small dogs cannot pass through, while the fence stays visually open toward the water.
