SERVING ARLINGTON, TEXAS

Fences and Gates in Arlington, TX

A fence is the first thing your neighbors see and the last thing you want to redo. We build wood, metal and horizontal fences and gates for Arlington homes, backed by a 4.9-star Google rating and a lot of referrals from people who live next door to our past work.

Neighbors are how most of our fence jobs start

A fence runs along a shared property line, so the people next door see every board. That visibility is good for us. A large share of our work comes from past clients and their neighbors, and fences are often how a new Arlington family first meets us.

Our 4.9-star Google rating comes from that same attention. Star-Telegram readers named us a DFW Favorites patio builder, and Fort Worth Magazine has named us Best Outdoor Store in its reader poll for five consecutive years. A fence gets the same crew standards as a patio cover.

Old pickets, HOA rules and everything between

Arlington has a wide mix of older and newer neighborhoods, and fences reflect it. In established parts of town, we replace aging wood pickets that have leaned and grayed for years. In newer communities, the HOA often specifies height, style and stain color, and we draw the fence to match before it goes to architectural review.

Wood privacy

Board-on-board or side-by-side cedar with a top cap and stain. The most common fence in Arlington backyards.

Horizontal

Horizontal boards with tight gaps for a modern look. Popular around patios and outdoor kitchens.

Metal

Ornamental steel or aluminum for open views, security and front yards. Low upkeep and long life.

Gates sized for real equipment

A gate that is too narrow becomes a daily headache. We size gates for mowers, wheelbarrows and trash bins, and frame them so they do not sag after a year. Double drive gates are available where you need to get a trailer or a crew into the backyard later.

Posts are where fences fail. We set them deep in concrete and space them to carry the panels without racking. Our team's masonry background also means we can build stone or brick columns at corners and gates when you want a heavier look.

Fences that frame the rest of the yard

A new fence is often the finishing piece. It encloses a fresh turf play area in Arlington, screens a new Arlington outdoor kitchen from the street, or wraps a raised deck in Arlington with matching horizontal boards. Planning it with the rest of the project keeps heights and stain colors consistent.

Fence projects can be financed with LYON Financial, alone or bundled with other work. Approval is up to the lender.

Fence questions from Arlington homeowners

Do I need a permit to replace my fence in Arlington?

It depends on how much you replace. The city says replacing less than 50 percent of one side does not require a permit. Larger replacements and new fences do, and we take care of the paperwork.

Can you match my HOA's fence requirements?

Yes. Send us your HOA guidelines and we will draw the fence to their height, style and stain rules, then prepare the drawings for review.

How long does a cedar fence last in Arlington?

That depends on the stain schedule and how well the posts are set. Deep concrete footings and restaining on a regular schedule go a long way.
