SCOPE
What this service covers.
Only the work we actually do — no padded list. If you are not sure whether your job fits, send a photo and we will tell you straight.
Cedar in a steel frame
Slats set into welded steel frames — the frame carries the span so the wood never has to.
Gap and spacing to choose
Tight for privacy, open for airflow and light, or mixed slat widths for a modern look.
Front-yard and accent runs
Short screens around patios, AC units and pool equipment, as well as full perimeters.
Matching gates
Walk and drive gates built with the same slat line so the run does not break at the gate.

Why people call about this.
The house is modern and the fence is not
A dog-ear picket fence fights a new build. Horizontal lines go with it.
The last horizontal fence sagged
That is a framing problem. Steel frames or tighter spacing solve it.
You want to screen something
Patios, hot tubs and equipment pads are where a short horizontal screen earns its keep.
WAXAHACHIE, TX
Horizontal & Modern Fence in Waxahachie: what’s different here.
Waxahachie is the Ellis County seat and one of the fastest-growing towns on the south edge of the Dallas–Fort Worth area, up from about 41,000 people at the 2020 census to an estimated 50,000 in 2025. It is known for its blocks of Victorian and gingerbread-style houses around the Ellis County Courthouse, with master-planned subdivisions filling in around the older town and acreage beyond them. The City of Waxahachie requires a fence permit (it publishes a Fence Permit Submittal Guide and takes applications through its online portal), most new subdivisions add HOA approval on top, and many households commute north on I-35E, which shapes when crews can get into a yard.
Fence in Waxahachie
In Waxahachie a fence usually needs both a city fence permit and HOA sign-off on height, picket style and stain in North Grove or Saddlebrook Estates, while on the Victorian lots in the West End the job is iron or cap-and-trim cedar that suits a historic house, and in both cases posts have to go deep enough to ride out the clay.
The ground
Waxahachie is on Blackland Prairie clay that swells when wet and shrinks and cracks in summer, which is why builder fences set on shallow posts start leaning within a few seasons.
Homes and lots
Historic Victorian and Queen Anne homes in the West End and around the courthouse square, newer HOA communities such as North Grove, Saddlebrook Estates and Sunrise at Garden Valley, and few-acre properties off US-287, US-77 and the county roads.
