Hurst sits squarely in the heart of Fort Worth's mid-century suburbs, where expansive clay soil and the humidity between the air corridors create unique challenges for fence owners. A leaning fence or a gate that drags is not a panel problem on most Hurst lots: it is a post problem, and our crews have been resetting and replacing fence posts in 76053 since 2010.

Homeowners in Hurst call Fort Worth Fence Company because we know the clay. We know how seasonal wet-and-dry cycles heave posts out of the ground, how moisture rots untreated wood at the fence line, and why a cedar fence that looks solid today can be listing six months from now. We repair what can be saved and replace what cannot, and we do the work ourselves with fully insured crews.

Fence Service in Hurst (76053)

Hurst is built on the same expansive clay that defines the greater Fort Worth area. Single-family homes on modest to generous lots, many with mature landscaping and established fence lines, sit on soil that moves with every wet season and dry spell. This is the defining local fact for fence work: posts set in tamped earth shift and settle unevenly, and posts set in concrete can still rack or heave if the concrete was not set deep enough or if the hole was not properly backfilled. Almost every leaning fence in Hurst is a post problem, not a panel problem. Cedar posts, pressure-treated pine posts, and vinyl posts all fail the same way when the ground moves: they shift, they lean, and they need reset or replacement.

We have served Hurst and the surrounding Fort Worth area since 2010. Our team handles wood and vinyl privacy fences, chain link, ornamental metal, gates, and automatic driveway gates. We repair leaning fences, replace rotten posts, fix dragging gates, and install new fence from the ground up. We work from your existing survey and install on the line you identify. Before we dig, we call 811 for utility locates, because that is the law and it is the right way to work.

How a Fence Job Works in Hurst

Step 1: You call us at (817) 632-6893 or request a free on-site assessment. We come out, walk your fence line, and look at what is failing. If a post is leaning, we dig down and see if it is a shallow set, rotted wood at the ground line, or heave from clay movement. We take photos, we measure, and we give you honest guidance: repair or replace. No pressure, no sales pitch.

Step 2: Once you approve the work, we schedule the job. If it is a post replacement, we call 811 for utility locates, then we dig out the bad post, set a new pressure-treated or cedar post in concrete below the frost line, and reattach the rails and pickets. If it is a full fence replacement, we remove the old fence, haul it away, set new posts on proper spacing with concrete, install new stringers (rails), and attach new pickets or panels. If it is a gate, we hang it true, check the hinges and latch, and test the swing. Hurst lots can be tight, and access matters. We work around landscaping, utility boxes, and air conditioner units without cutting corners.

Step 3: We clean up. All debris is hauled away, the site is swept, and we walk the fence line with you to confirm the work is done right. You get a straightforward invoice and a fence that will hold.

Fence repair in Hurst starts at $400 for straightforward fixes like a loose board or a sagging gate. A single post replacement runs from $425, depending on the depth of the set and the post material. A full fence replacement depends on the length, material, and whether the old fence needs removal. Wood privacy fence starts at $24 per linear foot, vinyl at $34 per linear foot, and chain link at $14 per linear foot. Ornamental metal and aluminum run from $39 per linear foot. An automatic driveway gate starts at $2,600 installed. The best way to get an accurate number is a free on-site assessment. Call us at (817) 632-6893 and we will come out, look at what you need, and give you a realistic price with no obligation.

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

Hurst clay swells when it is wet and shrinks when it is dry. If your fence post was set shallow or in tamped earth alone, the ground movement heaves it out of plumb over months or years. The post itself is often still sound. We dig down, assess the set, and either reset the post deeper in fresh concrete or replace it if it is rotted at the ground line. A leaning fence is usually a repair, not a replacement.

My gate drags on the ground or is off its hinges. Can you fix it?

Yes. A dragging gate is usually a post settlement issue, a sagging hinge, or a bent frame. We rehang the gate, repair or replace the hinges, and make sure it swings freely and latches tight. Gate repair starts at $450. If the post has heaved badly, we may reset it to bring the gate frame back into square. Call (817) 632-6893 for a free assessment.

What is the difference between a post set in concrete and one tamped in earth?

A post set in concrete lasts longer because concrete prevents water from pooling at the base and slows rot. But concrete alone does not stop heave from clay movement. The depth of the set is critical: a post should be set below the active clay layer, typically 3 feet or more in Hurst. A shallow concrete set will still heave. Tamped earth offers no protection against rot or heave and is not a good choice for Hurst soil.

Do I need a permit to replace a fence in Hurst?

Hurst and Tarrant County have fence ordinances that govern height, setback, and material. Permits are required in some jurisdictions within the Hurst area and not in others. We recommend checking with the Hurst Building Department before you start. If you have an HOA, your deed restrictions may be stricter than city code. We work from your existing survey and install on the line you identify, and we defer to local rules and HOA standards.

What should I do if my neighbor's tree is hanging over my fence?

Overhanging branches are your neighbor's responsibility to trim back to the property line. If the branches are damaging your fence or blocking your access, a conversation with your neighbor is the first step. If you have an HOA, check your architectural guidelines and notify the HOA if needed. We can assess any damage the branches have caused to your fence and repair or replace what is necessary. Call (817) 632-6893 if you need an estimate.

Are your crews fully insured?

Yes. Fort Worth Fence Company is fully insured. General liability and workers compensation coverage are in place for every job. We are an AFA Member Installer with the American Fence Association, and we have been in business since 2010.

How often should I have my cedar fence stained or sealed?

Cedar in the Hurst humidity and sun needs cleaning and re-staining every two to three years to slow weathering and rot. We offer fence staining and restoration starting at $875. If you let cedar go too long without maintenance, the wood becomes gray and brittle, and repair costs rise. Regular staining is cheaper than replacement.
