Fence Installation & Repair in Allen
As a homeowner in Allen, TX, you're no stranger to the unpredictable Texas weather. With annual rainfall exceeding 45 inches and seasonal risks like severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, and hail damage, it's essential to have a sturdy fence that can withstand these extreme conditions. A well-installed fence can provide peace of mind and protect your property from intruders while also defining your outdoor spaces.
Considering the median home value is $429,900 and the majority of homes in Allen were built in 2002, many homeowners are likely to have existing fences that need repair or replacement. The cost range for a new fence installation or repair can vary greatly, but with our services, you can expect to pay between $1,500 and $6,000, depending on factors like linear feet of fencing, material type, and post setting method.
To ensure your fence is installed correctly and safely, we take into account the unique climate challenges of Allen. For example, with 40 freeze-thaw cycles per year, it's crucial to use materials and techniques that can withstand these repeated cycles of ice and thawing. Our team will work closely with you to determine the best options for your fence, taking into account your specific needs and budget.

DIY vs. Call a Pro
A basic wood or vinyl fence is a popular DIY project. Call 811 before digging. Set posts in concrete every 6-8 feet, let cure 24-48 hours, then attach rails and pickets. Use a string line for straight runs and a level for plumb posts.
Call a professional when:
Hire a professional for metal fences, sloped terrain, very long runs, or if you want a warranty. Also consider a pro if your soil is rocky or you have underground utilities.
