Best Fence Companies in Texas (2026)

The Texas Fence Market at a Glance

Across our 79 covered cities in Texas, cedar privacy fence remains the most common residential install, with installed pricing ranging from $25 per linear foot in the lowest-cost markets to $70 in the priciest suburbs. Vinyl and wrought iron run meaningfully higher, but both hold their value longer in climates with heavy sun, storms, or salt exposure.

Permit rules are set by the local building department, not the state. 71 of the 79 cities we cover in Texas require a fence permit for most residential work. Most cities cap back-yard fences at 6–8 feet and front-yard fences at 3–4 feet, but corner lots, sight-triangle rules, and HOA covenants can override the base code.
