Fort Worth's sprawling neighborhoods, from the brick ranch blocks of South Arlington to the fast-growing two-story subdivisions west toward Mansfield, sit on some of North Texas's most challenging ground: deep, dark clay soil that swells after spring rain and cracks hard by summer, all under a sky that builds serious spring storms from March through June.

When a mature post oak, cedar elm, or pecan tree leans, splits, or drops limbs over your roof or fence line, or when a spring derecho strips branches across your property, Arlington Fence Company handles the damage honestly and quickly. We've served Fort Worth and the surrounding Mid-Cities since 2015, and we know exactly what the local weather and soil do to fences, gates, and the trees that grow next to them.

Fencing and Gates in Fort Worth (76102)

Fort Worth's housing stock is as mixed as its neighborhoods. You've got mid-century brick ranch homes on mature tree-lined streets in South Arlington, where six-foot cedar privacy fences line every property and HOA covenants require wood. You've got 1990s and 2000s two-story brick subdivisions near Mansfield and Grand Prairie with mandatory fence standards. And you've got larger custom estates in west Fort Worth with wrought-iron ornamental fencing and stone-pillared entries. That variety means fence and gate work here demands real local knowledge: which materials hold up to our clay soil and spring weather, which setback and height rules apply in your neighborhood, and whether your HOA architectural review will approve what you want to build.

Our team installs and repairs wood and vinyl privacy fences, chain link, aluminum and ornamental iron, automatic driveway gates, and pool barriers. We're AFA Member Installers (American Fence Association), fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation, and we've been doing this work in Fort Worth and Arlington since 2015. We work from your existing survey, call 811 for utility locates before we dig a single post hole, and we defer to your local building department and HOA on setback, height, and material rules. Repair is always our first proposal when a fence justifies it.

How a Fence or Gate Job Works in Fort Worth

Step 1: Free On-Site Assessment. Call us at (682) 277-0410 or contact us online. We'll visit your property, walk the fence line, check your survey, look at what you want to build or repair, and talk through local setback and height rules, HOA approval if it applies, and what the job will cost. No surprise invoices.

Step 2: The Work. Once you approve the estimate, we order material, schedule the crew, and call 811 for utility locates before we dig. Our team sets posts in concrete at proper spacing, installs rails and pickets or panels square and level, hangs gates with self-closing hardware where needed, and braces against sag. If you're in a master-planned community, we coordinate with your HOA. If a storm has flattened your fence or twisted a gate off its hinges, we document the damage so you can file a claim if you choose to.

Step 3: Cleanup and Walkthrough. We haul away all debris, sweep up, and walk the finished job with you so you know exactly what was done and why. Your property is clean and your fence or gate is ready to work.

For an honest estimate that accounts for your specific site, soil, and local rules, call us at (682) 277-0410 or request a quote online. We'll give you a real number, not a range.

What fence material holds up best to Fort Worth's clay soil and spring storms?

Cedar and pressure-treated pine wood fences perform well when posts are set deep in concrete and spaced correctly, typically 6 feet on center. Vinyl doesn't rot and handles our weather, but it costs more upfront. Chain link is durable and affordable if you don't mind the look. Ornamental iron is beautiful and long-lasting, especially in estates with stone pillars. The real factor is post installation: posts set in concrete, not just tamped earth, will hold through our clay swelling and the wind that comes with spring supercells. We set every post in concrete at the proper depth for North Texas soil.

Do I need a permit to install a fence in Fort Worth?

Permit rules vary across Fort Worth and the surrounding jurisdictions, and they change by neighborhood. The Fort Worth Building Department and your local city or county set the rules. If you're in a master-planned community, your HOA architectural review also has to approve material, height, and color before we start. We always defer to your local building department and HOA. Call us at (682) 277-0410 and we'll help you understand what applies to your property.

My fence was damaged in a spring storm. What do we do?

Call us right away at (682) 277-0410. We'll come out and assess the damage at no charge. We'll document what happened, photograph the damage, and help you understand what needs repair or replacement. If you have homeowners insurance, we can help you document the damage for your claim. Whether the fence can be repaired or needs to be rebuilt, we'll give you an honest estimate. Storm damage is common in Fort Worth from March through June, and we handle it the same way every time: honest assessment, clear pricing, and fast work.

My HOA says my fence doesn't meet the architectural standards. Can you help?

Yes. Many Fort Worth neighborhoods, especially the newer master-planned communities near Mansfield and Grand Prairie, have strict fence covenants. If your fence is out of spec on material, height, color, or finish, we can repair or replace it to meet your HOA requirements. We work with your HOA review process and make sure the finished job gets approval. Call us at (682) 277-0410 with your HOA letter, and we'll walk through your options.

I want to install a pool fence. What's required in Fort Worth?

Pool barrier fencing is required by Texas state law and local Fort Worth code. The barrier must be at least four feet tall, installed on the property line or around the pool perimeter, with self-closing self-latching gates and no gaps larger than four inches. We install pool fencing to meet local pool barrier codes, but final compliance determination rests with the Fort Worth Building Department or your local authority having jurisdiction. A barrier is a required safety layer, but it does not replace active supervision of children. We'll install the fence to code, and you'll want to verify approval with your local building department before the pool is used.

How much does it cost to replace a gate that's sagging or dragging?

Gate repair or replacement depends on the gate type, size, and what's wrong. A self-closing residential gate that's sagging or off its hinges can often be straightened, rehung, or have hardware replaced for $450 to $800. A new gate installation starts at $475. Automatic driveway gates, which are popular in the custom estates around west Fort Worth, start at $2,800 and include the operator and controls. Call (682) 277-0410 with a photo and description of what's happening, and we'll give you a real estimate.

We're in a newer subdivision near Mansfield with mandatory cedar privacy fencing. Can you help us maintain or replace it?

Absolutely. Many of the newer master-planned communities in that area require six-foot cedar privacy fencing and prohibit vinyl or chain link. We install cedar fencing to those specs and can repair or replace sections that have rotted or been damaged. Cedar holds up reasonably well in North Texas, but our clay soil and spring moisture mean posts can rot at the ground line over time. We replace rotted posts in concrete and can stain and restore cedar fencing to keep it looking sharp. Call us at (682) 277-0410 and we'll assess what you have and what needs to be done.
