Arlington sits on the flat Grand Prairie clay that defines North Texas, where post-war ranch blocks and dense newer subdivisions stretch across Tarrant County. Homeowners here know their fences: cedar privacy is the default in backyards, and the expansive clay soil that swells and shrinks with every wet and dry cycle is the defining challenge for any fence that stands in the ground.

Fort Worth Fence Company has been serving Arlington and the surrounding Fort Worth area since 2010. We know why your fence leans, why your gate drags, and how to build it right the first time so it stays straight. When a storm flattens your fence or a post rots at the ground line, we show up with crews who know Arlington's soil, its HOA rules, and the difference between a repair that holds and a replacement that costs more than it should.

Fencing in Arlington (76015)

Arlington's housing stock runs from older Heights-style bungalows to master-planned subdivisions where HOA cedar standards govern every backyard. The challenge is the clay. When the ground swells in wet weather and shrinks in dry spells, fence posts set shallow or without proper concrete footings will heave, rack, and lean. Add the humidity that rots untreated wood at the ground line, and almost every leaning fence we see in Arlington is a post problem, not a panel problem. We fix it by setting posts deep in concrete, spacing them right, and using pressure-treated pine or cedar depending on what your fence needs and what your HOA allows.

We've been installing and repairing fences across Fort Worth and Arlington since 2010. We work with the city's setback and height rules, coordinate with HOAs on material and color, and always call 811 before we dig. We're fully insured, and our crews do the work themselves, not subcontractors.

How a Job Works in Arlington

Step one is a free on-site visit. We walk your property, look at the soil, check your deed restrictions and any HOA architectural standards, and talk through what you want and what makes sense. If you have an existing survey, we work from that. If you're not sure where your line is, we work from where you identify it. We give you an honest estimate with no surprises.

Step two is the work itself. Our team handles the details that matter in Arlington: we coordinate with your HOA if required, we pull permits where the city requires them, and we set posts in concrete deep enough to hold against clay heave. For wood fences, we use pressure-treated pine or cedar depending on your choice and your HOA rules. For vinyl, chain link, or ornamental metal, we install with the same care. We use galvanized hardware and proper bracing so gates don't sag.

Step three is cleanup and a final walkthrough. We haul debris, leave your property clean, and walk you through the warranty and any maintenance your new fence needs. If it's a wood fence, we'll tell you when it's time to stain or restore it, usually every two to three years in Arlington's sun and humidity.

Pricing in Arlington depends on the fence type, the post condition, and what your property requires. Wood and privacy fences run from $24 per linear foot. Vinyl starts at $34 per foot. Chain link runs from $14 per foot. Ornamental metal and aluminum start at $39 per foot. Pool fencing is installed to meet local pool barrier codes and runs from $31 per foot. Repairs start at $400. Post replacement runs from $425. Gate installation and repair start at $450. A full fence replacement or removal is typically $2,200 and up, depending on the length and what's in the ground. Storm damage assessment is free. The best way to know what your job will cost is to call us at (817) 632-6893 for a free estimate. We'll look at your specific property, your soil, your HOA rules, and give you a realistic price.

Why does my fence lean in Arlington, and is it fixable?

Almost every leaning fence in Arlington is a post problem caused by clay heave. The clay swells when it's wet and shrinks when it's dry, pushing posts up and out of plumb over time. If the fence is only a few years old and the posts were set shallow or tamped instead of concreted, we can often reset the posts deep in concrete and straighten the fence. If the posts are rotted at the ground line or the fence is very old, replacement is usually the better spend. We'll assess it free and tell you which makes sense.

What should I do if a storm damages my fence in Arlington?

Call us right away at (817) 632-6893. We handle storm damage year-round, especially during hurricane season from June through November. We'll come out and assess the damage for free. We can help you document what happened for your insurance claim. Depending on what's damaged, we may be able to repair panels and posts, or we may recommend replacement. We're honest about what will hold and what won't, and we don't sell fear. We just fix it.

What's the difference between a tamped post and one set in concrete?

A post tamped into the ground with soil will move as the clay swells and shrinks. A post set in concrete goes deeper and stays put. In Arlington's clay, concrete is the right choice. It costs a bit more upfront but saves you years of leaning fences and repairs. We set posts in concrete as standard on all new installations.

Do I need a permit to install a fence in Arlington?

Permit requirements vary across Arlington and Tarrant County. Some areas require them, some don't. Height, setback, and corner-visibility rules are set by the city or county and differ depending on where you are in Arlington. If you're in a master-planned community, your HOA may have architectural standards that govern material and color. We know the local rules, we'll pull permits where required, and we'll coordinate with your HOA if you have one. When you call us, we'll confirm what applies to your property.

My HOA has strict rules about cedar fences. Can you help me navigate that?

Yes. HOA architectural standards in Arlington's subdivisions often specify cedar, color, height, and style. We work with HOA rules on every job. We can help you understand what's required, source the right materials, and coordinate approval if needed. If cedar isn't an option or you want something different, we can discuss alternatives that meet your HOA's standards.

Are you fully insured for fence work in Arlington?

Yes. We are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. We're also an AFA Member Installer with the American Fence Association. Our crews do the work themselves, not subcontractors, so you know who's on your property and what you're getting.

How often should I stain or restore my wood fence in Arlington?

Cedar and pressure-treated wood fences in Arlington's sun and humidity typically need cleaning and re-staining every two to three years to stay protected and looking good. We offer fence staining and restoration services starting at $875. If you skip staining for too long, the wood will gray, and moisture can start rotting the posts and rails. Regular maintenance is cheaper than replacement.
