What Fence Installation Covers

Fence installation means building your fence from the ground up. We mark the property line, have the underground utility lines located, then dig and set the posts in concrete. The posts go in first because they carry the whole fence.

Next come the rails and the pickets or panels. We talk through the material that fits your yard and your budget. The City of Irving requires a permit for a new fence, and we build to meet the height rules.

  • Old fence torn out and hauled away

Why Replace Instead of Patch

A fence that fails in more than one spot is usually telling you the wood or the posts are near the end. Fixing one section does not help the next one that lets go in the next windstorm. A new fence sets fresh posts in concrete and gives you a clean, straight line that holds. It is also the right time to change the height or move a gate, before everything is locked in.

Not Sure If You Need a Full Replace?

Send a few photos when you text. We will tell you honestly whether a repair will hold or a new fence is the better spend.

How much does fence installation cost in Irving?

It depends on the length, the material and the yard. A short run in a basic material costs less than a long run of cedar. We measure the job and give you a free quote, with no price guessed over the phone.

How long does it take to put up a fence?

Most home fences go up in a few days. We set the posts in concrete first and let them cure before we hang the panels, so the fence does not sag later. Weather and the size of the job move the timeline.

Do I need a permit to install a fence in Irving?

Yes. The City of Irving requires a permit to build a new fence, and the fence has to meet the city's height rules. We build to those rules. Check with the City of Irving or your HOA if you are unsure about your lot.

What is the best fence material for North Texas?

It depends on what you want. Cedar looks great and resists warping. Pressure-treated pine costs less. Chain link is budget friendly, iron is strong and see-through, and vinyl needs no staining. We help you weigh the trade-offs.

How deep should fence posts go?

Deep enough to sit below the soil that moves with the weather and to hold against the wind. We set posts in concrete so our clay does not heave them loose. The exact depth depends on the fence height and the post.
