Building near the Minesing Wetlands

Minesing sits beside the Minesing Wetlands, one of the largest wetlands in southern Ontario, where the Nottawasaga River spreads over the lowlands in spring. Many properties nearby have a high water table and heavy soil that holds water.

Wet ground is hard on fences. Water around a post freezes, expands and lifts it, which is how fences start to lean after a few winters. We set posts below the frost line in concrete shaped to shed water, and on the wettest spots we talk through longer posts or a lighter fence style before you commit.

Fence rules in Minesing

Minesing is in the Township of Springwater, which sets the fence height and pool enclosure rules for the area. We check the rules that apply to your lot at the free on-site visit and book Ontario One Call locates before anyone digs. Current township by-laws are listed on the Springwater by-laws page.

Land close to the wetlands can also fall under the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority, which may require a permit for work in regulated areas. We help you check before we dig.

Minesing fence questions

Why do fences lean on wet ground?

Frost heave. Wet soil around a post freezes and expands, pushing the post up a little each winter. Deeper posts set below the frost line, with concrete that sheds water, stay put. Our guide on how deep fence posts should be in Ontario explains the numbers.

Do I need a conservation authority permit?

Only if your property is in an area the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority regulates, which is common near the wetlands. Their online map shows regulated areas, and we can help you check during the estimate.

"Brad and his crew were here on the day they said they would be, cleaned up after themselves and installed efficiently. Very pleased with the results. Attention was paid to ensuring that the fencing was down low enough to prevent dogs from getting under. Would highly recommend."
