Arlington sits on the Blackland Prairie where deep, dark clay heaves fence posts every wet-dry cycle, and spring storms bring hail and straight-line wind that flatten panels and snap gate hardware. When your fence leans, your gate drags, or a storm tears panels off the line, Arlington Fence Company knows exactly why it happened and how to fix it right.

We have been serving Arlington and the surrounding Mid-Cities since 2015. Homeowners in 76010 call us because we show up on time, we explain what failed and why, and we propose repair before replacement whenever the fence justifies it. We are fully insured, and we are members of the American Fence Association.

Fencing in Arlington, Texas

Arlington's residential landscape is dominated by brick veneer ranch and split-level homes built in the 1960s through 1980s, with mature tree-lined streets in South Arlington and the Mid-Cities. Newer subdivisions near Mansfield and Grand Prairie feature mandatory wood-fence HOA covenants and 6-foot cedar privacy fencing. West-side custom estates showcase wrought-iron and stone-pillared entries. All of these neighborhoods sit on the same gently rolling Blackland Prairie with highly expansive clay soil that swells after spring rain and cracks hard in summer drought.

That clay is the dominant challenge. Fence posts set in concrete shift as the soil heaves through wet-dry cycles. Posts tamped into native clay without concrete often fail within a few years. Spring storms from March through June bring large hail and straight-line wind that batter panels, snap pickets, and bend ornamental iron. Summer drought cracks the clay away from post concrete, leaving posts loose and gates dragging. We have been solving these problems in Arlington since 2015, and our fully insured crews know the soil, the weather, and the fix.

How a Fence Job Works in Arlington

Step 1: Free On-Site Assessment. Call us at (682) 277-0410 or request a quote online. We visit your property, walk the fence line, identify the failure mode, and explain what we find. If your fence is leaning, we measure the post movement and show you why it is happening. If a storm damaged panels, we photograph and document the damage so you can file a claim. We answer your questions and give you an honest estimate with no pressure.

Step 2: The Work. Before we dig post holes, we order a Texas 811 utility locate to mark underground lines. We set posts in concrete below the frost line, spaced to code, and install rails, pickets, or panels plumb and level. For wood fence, we use pressure-treated pine or cedar depending on your choice and budget. For vinyl, we install PVC panels on galvanized steel posts. For chain link, we stretch mesh tight on galvanized posts with tension bands and stretcher bars. For ornamental iron, we install powder-coated aluminum or wrought-iron panels with self-closing self-latching hardware. We work around your landscape, respect your neighbors, and coordinate with any HOA requirements.

Step 3: Cleanup and Walkthrough. We remove all scrap and debris from your property. We walk the finished fence line with you, point out the work, and answer any remaining questions. We leave your property clean.

Pricing depends on the fence type, post spacing, and site conditions. Wood and privacy fence starts at $27 per linear foot. Vinyl and PVC fencing runs from $38 per linear foot. Chain link begins at $16 per linear foot, while aluminum and ornamental iron start at $42 per linear foot. Fence repair jobs typically start at $450. Storm damage assessment is free, and we document the damage for your insurance claim. Gate installation and repair start at $475. Automatic and driveway gates begin at $2,800. Fence post repair and replacement start at $450. Fence removal and replacement, staining and restoration, and commercial or temporary fencing are priced by site quote. Farm and ranch fencing starts at $12 per linear foot. For an honest estimate on your specific project in Arlington, call us at (682) 277-0410. We measure carefully and price fairly.

Why do fence posts in Arlington heave and lean after a few years?

Arlington sits on highly expansive Blackland Prairie clay. When spring rains saturate the soil, the clay swells and pushes posts upward. When summer drought dries the clay, it shrinks and pulls away from post concrete, leaving posts loose. Posts set in concrete below the frost line, with proper compaction and drainage, resist heave much better than posts tamped into native clay. If your fence is already leaning, we can reset the posts or replace them entirely depending on the damage.

A spring storm tore panels off my fence. Can I file an insurance claim?

Yes. We can help document the storm damage with photographs and a detailed assessment. We show the damage in writing so you can file a claim with your homeowners insurance. We never promise that a claim will be approved, but honest documentation gives you the best chance. Call us at (682) 277-0410 for a free damage assessment.

What is the difference between wood fence and vinyl, and which costs less?

Wood fence (pressure-treated pine or cedar) costs less upfront, starting at $27 per linear foot, but requires staining or sealing every few years to resist weathering. Vinyl and PVC fence costs more to install, starting at $38 per linear foot, but requires no staining and lasts longer in Arlington's wet-dry climate. Chain link is the most affordable option at $16 per linear foot, but offers no privacy. For privacy and durability in Arlington's climate, wood is the budget choice and vinyl is the long-term choice.

Does Arlington require a permit to install a fence?

Permit requirements and fence height, setback, and material rules vary by jurisdiction in the Greater Arlington area. Arlington city code sets its own standards, and unincorporated areas are governed by Tarrant County. Master-planned communities enforce additional restrictions through HOA architectural standards. Before we install your fence, we recommend you check with your local building department and your HOA if one applies. We can help you understand the rules, and we always install to code.

My HOA says I need approval before replacing my fence. What do we do?

Master-planned communities in Arlington and the Mid-Cities typically require HOA architectural approval before fence work. Review your deed restrictions and HOA guidelines for color, material, and height rules. Submit your fence plan to your HOA for approval before we begin work. We can help you prepare a site plan and material sample if needed. Once approval is in hand, we coordinate the installation around your HOA's timeline.

Is your team fully insured?

Yes. We carry general liability and workers' compensation insurance. We can provide a certificate of insurance on request. Our crews are fully insured for wood and privacy fence installation, storm damage fence repair, fence post repair and replacement, and all other fence and gate work across Arlington and the surrounding areas.

What should I do to prepare my fence for spring storms?

Spring storms in Arlington (March through June) bring hail and straight-line wind. Before the season, inspect your fence for loose pickets, cracked rails, bent posts, and dragging gates. Tighten bolts on gate hardware and hinges. If posts are leaning, call us for a repair estimate. If panels are cracked or pickets are split, we can repair or replace them before storm season. A well-maintained fence resists wind and hail much better than a fence with existing damage.
