SERVING BENBROOK, TEXAS

Fences and Gates in Benbrook, TX

A fence is the one project your neighbor sees as much as you do. Much of our work comes from referrals, often from the house next door, so we build Benbrook fences that look good from both sides and stay straight for years.

Built for both sides of the property line

We have built in the Fort Worth area since we were established in 2016, and a large share of new clients reach us through past clients and their neighbors. Fences make that especially true. When the new fence goes up, the family next door sees every post and every rail. If it is plumb, level and finished well, they ask who built it.

That is why we set posts in concrete at the right depth, run rails true and stain or seal both faces. A fence should look intentional from the street, the yard and the house next door.

Fence and gate styles

Wood privacy fences

Cedar pickets with a top cap and trim board, stained to resist weather. Board-on-board layouts close the gaps as the wood dries.

Horizontal fences

Boards run sideways for a modern line. A strong match for newer homes and for backyards with clean concrete and turf layouts.

Metal fences and gates

Ornamental steel or aluminum for open views, plus walk and drive gates sized for daily use and hung so they swing without sagging.

How Benbrook regulates fences

Benbrook has its own fence permit rules, and they are more specific than many homeowners expect. A permit is required for any fence taller than 30 inches that is visible from a street, a right-of-way or a public park. Any fence over 6 feet tall needs one too, wherever it sits on the lot. That covers most front yard fences, corner lots and backyards that border the city's parkland.

With more than 1,000 acres of parks in Benbrook, including Dutch Branch Park and Timbercreek Park, plenty of yards share a line with public land. We check where your fence will be seen from and handle the permit as part of the job. Many subdivisions also have HOA rules on fence height, material and stain color, and we prepare drawings for that review too.

Gates sized for daily life

A gate gets opened more than any other part of the fence, so it needs the most attention. We size walk gates for wheelbarrows and mowers, drive gates for trailers and frame each one so it does not sag. Heavy-duty hinges and latches go on every gate we build.

A fence often closes out a bigger backyard project. It frames a new patio and walkway layout, gives privacy around an outdoor kitchen and dining area and provides a clean backdrop for artificial turf along the fence line. Our in-house designers show the fence in the same 3D rendering as the rest of the yard, so height and stain color are settled before posts go in.

Fence questions from Benbrook residents

Will my new Benbrook fence need a permit?

Yes, if it is taller than 30 inches and visible from a street, right-of-way or park, or if it is over 6 feet tall anywhere on the lot. We take care of the permit as part of the job.

Should I stain a new cedar fence right away?

Cedar does best when it is sealed or stained soon after it dries out. Stain slows graying and helps the boards resist splitting in sun and heat. We can stain during the build.

Can you replace just one side of my fence?

Yes. We can replace a single run and match height and style as closely as possible. If the neighbor shares that side, we are glad to talk with them about the plan.
