New cedar privacy fence with steel posts along a North Texas backyard

Who this is for

If you searched for a fence company near me, you probably want three things. A fair price, a fence that meets your city's rules, and proof the work was done right.

We build and repair fences for owner-occupied single-family homes in Dallas-Fort Worth. That covers Collin County, North Dallas, Fort Worth and Tarrant County.

This page is the starting point. Each fence type below has its own page with more detail.

What we build

Cedar and wood fences

A 6 ft cedar privacy fence is the standard backyard fence here. We build it two ways: side-by-side or board-on-board.

Side-by-side sets the pickets edge to edge. Board-on-board overlaps them, so no gaps open between boards. See cedar and wood fences for both.

Ornamental iron

Ornamental iron gives you a fence you can see through. In DFW it is sold as ornamental steel or "wrought iron". All three names mean the same product on a quote.

It suits front yards, pools and lots with a view. Read more on the iron fence page.

Gates

We build walk gates and double drive gates to match the fence. Automated drive gates with an opener are priced as their own line.

Repairs

Not every fence needs replacing. We fix leaning posts, broken pickets, loose rails and sagging gates. Repairs are quoted by free estimate on the fence repair page.

How a fence project works, step by step

  1. You ask for a quote. Use the fence quote form or call us. Tell us the rough length and the style you want.
  2. We measure on site. We walk the fence line with you. We note gates, slopes and any old fence that has to come out.
  3. We check the rules. We confirm your city's permit, height and material rules. We ask about your HOA too, because deed restrictions can be stricter than the city.
  4. You get a written line-item quote. Fence, gates and removal each get their own line. No lump sums.
  5. We apply for the permit where your city requires one. Your quote says whether one is needed.
  6. We build. The old fence comes out, posts are set in concrete, then rails, pickets and gates go up.
  7. We photograph the work. You get photos of the build from start to finish.
  8. We walk the finished fence with you. You open every gate and look at every run before we call it done.

One build standard for every city

Fence rules change at every city line. Allen and Irving require metal posts. Prosper requires galvanized steel posts and the back side of the fence facing away from the street.

We did not want a different standard for each city. So we build to the strictest rules we have verified.

  • Galvanized steel posts set in concrete.
  • The finished side facing the street.
  • Board-on-board with a top rail on street-facing runs.
  • Wood that is stained or sealed.

Your quote shows these as plain lines. If your HOA asks for something more, we add it before you sign.

Permits and height rules differ by city

There is no single DFW fence rule. Plano requires a fence permit. McKinney requires one for a new fence, but not for a like-for-like repair.

Height limits vary too. Most cities we serve cap a backyard fence at 8 feet. Dallas allows up to 9 feet, and McKinney allows 8 feet 6 inches.

Front yards are tighter. Fort Worth limits front-yard fences to 4 feet with an open design. Plano limits them to 40 inches and 50% open.

We check your address before we quote. That way the fence on paper is a fence your city will accept.

While we are there

Already booked a roof inspection with us? Ask for a fence quote on the same visit.

We are at your home with a tape measure and a camera anyway. One visit can cover the roof and the fence line. You get a separate written quote for each.

It works the other way too. If we are building your fence, you can book a roof inspection with a photo report you keep.

See the proof before you sign

We sell on proof, not promises. You can read a sample quote to see how our line items look before you ask for your own.

What a fence costs

Published 2026 DFW ranges put 6 ft side-by-side cedar at $25 to $45 per linear foot. Board-on-board runs $35 to $55. Ornamental iron runs $28 to $60.

Gates and old fence removal are separate lines. The fence cost guide explains what moves a price up or down.

These are budgeting ranges, not quotes. Your written quote after we measure is the only binding price.

Sales tax and payment

Texas does not tax labor on residential fence work. On our lump-sum residential contracts, the price you see is the price you pay.

No payment is due until materials are delivered and work begins. Owner Victor leads the company and stands behind each quote.

Common questions

How much does a cedar fence cost per foot in DFW?

Published 2026 DFW ranges are $25 to $45 per linear foot for 6 ft side-by-side cedar and $35 to $55 for board-on-board.

How tall can my backyard fence be?

Most DFW cities cap backyard fences at 8 feet and limit front-yard fences to about 3 to 4 feet with an open design. We confirm your city and HOA rules before we build.

Do I need a permit for a new fence?

Usually for a new fence, often not for a like-for-like repair. Plano requires a fence permit; McKinney does for a new fence but not a like-for-like repair. We check your city first.

Which side of the fence faces out?

Some cities require the finished side to face the street. Prosper does, and Carrollton does along arterial streets. We build finished side out on street-facing runs.

Do you charge sales tax?

Texas does not tax labor on residential roof and fence work, and on our lump-sum residential contracts the price you see is the price you pay. Commercial projects and holiday lighting packages are taxable.
