What’s the Best Fence Type for Privacy in Austin?

How to Know It’s Time to Replace Your Fence

A few signs your fence may be past the point of repair:

xtensive Rot or Mold

If over 30% of your boards or posts are rotting, replacement is safer and more cost-effective than repeated patch jobs.

Storm or Wind Damage

Texas storms hit hard. If your fence is splintered, sagging, or missing panels altogether, a rebuild ensures long-term stability.

 

Age and Weakening Structure

Most wood fences last 10–15 years. If yours is older and showing signs of decay, it may no longer be secure — especially for pets and kids.

HOA or Neighborhood Standards

Some communities require updates to maintain uniformity. We’ll help you meet HOA guidelines without compromising on style.

Our Fence Replacement Process

We make upgrading your fence easy and efficient:

On-Site Evaluation & Quote

We’ll walk the fence line, assess your needs, and give you a detailed, no-pressure estimate. We’ll also discuss your style preferences and functional needs.

Safe Removal of Old Fence

Our team removes the existing fence, including posts and concrete footings, and hauls away all debris responsibly.

Installation of New Fence

We install brand-new posts set deep in concrete, followed by rails, pickets, and any custom gates or trims — all built to last.

Optional Staining & Finishing

We can stain and seal your new fence immediately or return after it cures (typically in 4–6 weeks) for a longer-lasting finish.
