Fence Installation & Fence Replacement in Rockwall, TX
Rockwall sits on the eastern shore of Lake Ray Hubbard, and its neighborhoods range from lakefront homes in The Harbor, Chandler’s Landing and The Shores to established streets near the historic downtown square and newer communities like Stone Creek and Breezy Hill. Each one needs something different from a fence, and we build for all of them.
Lake-view lots often call for open wrought iron fencing that keeps the view, while family neighborhoods lean toward cedar privacy fences. Larger lots off FM 552 and John King Boulevard often add an automatic driveway gate. Whatever you need, the same in-house crew designs it, builds it and stands behind it.

Custom Iron Fence Company Rockwall, TX
Wrought iron is the most-requested fence for Rockwall’s lake-area homes because it secures the yard without blocking the water view. We build custom panels and gates in flat-top and spear-top styles, set them between masonry columns for a high-end entry, and use heavy-duty posts set deep in concrete to stand up to wind off the lake.
Iron is also a popular pool fence in Rockwall. Learn more about our wrought iron fences in Rockwall.
Automatic Gate Installation for Rockwall Homes & Businesses
From lakefront estates to larger lots on the edge of town, we build swing and slide driveway gates and install the openers, keypads, remotes and safety sensors that run them. We set the gate posts in concrete and plan the conduit before the gate goes up, so it runs smoothly for years.
See our automatic gates in Rockwall for gate styles and options.
Cedar Wood Fence Installation & Replacement in Rockwall
Cedar is still the top choice for Rockwall backyards. It resists rot and insects naturally and holds up well in the Texas sun. We build board-on-board, side-by-side, shadowbox and horizontal cedar fences, usually 6 or 8 feet tall, and replace older fences that have started to lean or rot.

Built for Rockwall’s Lake Winds & Clay Soil
A fence company that knows Rockwall. Fences here face two things most of North Texas doesn’t at the same time: strong winds coming off Lake Ray Hubbard and Blackland Prairie clay that swells when it is wet and shrinks when it is dry. That combination is what makes so many Rockwall fences lean within a few years.
Many Rockwall neighborhoods also have HOA guidelines on fence style, height and color, and we confirm those before a post goes in the ground.
Permits and inspections, handled for you. Many new fences and larger replacements in Rockwall need a city permit. Rules can change, so we check the city’s current requirements before every build and handle the permit and inspections as part of the job.
Posts set deep for wind and clay. We set residential posts 30 to 36 inches deep in concrete, with deeper footings at gates and corners, so your fence holds its line through lake winds and seasonal soil movement. Already have a fence that is leaning? See our fence and gate repair in Rockwall.
