Frequently Asked Questions

Most 6-foot wood privacy fences in DFW run $25 to $60 per linear foot installed — roughly $3,750–$9,000 for a typical 150-foot backyard. Where you land in that range depends on the wood (pressure-treated pine vs. cedar), the build style, and your site conditions. We break it all down line by line in our wood fence cost guide.

Professional staining runs about $3.50–$7 per linear foot for one side of a 6-foot fence — roughly $700–$1,500 for a typical backyard — or $5–$10 per linear foot to stain both sides. Full pricing and what affects it are in our fence staining cost guide.

Pine costs less up front ($18–$28 per foot installed) but typically lasts 8–15 years in DFW conditions. Cedar costs more ($25–$50 per foot) but lasts 15–25+ years with maintenance — which makes it roughly 30% cheaper per year of ownership. We compare them head-to-head in cedar vs. pine fence in Texas.

In the Texas sun, plan on restaining every 3–5 years. Staining protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and mildew — skipping it is the fastest way to shorten a fence’s life. Our staining guide covers the full schedule.

Beyond cedar and wood fences, we install wrought iron fences in galvanized steel and aluminum, chain link fences, and vinyl, plus fence staining, fence and gate repair, automatic gates, and custom decks and pergolas.

It depends on your city. In Dallas, a standard fence up to 6 feet tall needs no permit. Carrollton requires one only for new fences over 20 feet long. Anna requires a permit for any new residential fence, and Melissa requires one for any new fence, though like-for-like repairs under 24 linear feet are exempt. We flag permit requirements with your quote — and we always recommend confirming current rules with your city and HOA before building.

In most DFW cities, side and rear yard fences are capped at 8 feet — Dallas allows up to 9. Front-yard fences are much shorter (typically 3–4 feet, and often required to be mostly open), and corner lots have extra visibility rules. Check the city page for your area under our Service Area menu for specifics.

In most North Texas cities, exact fence placement on a shared line is a civil matter between neighbors rather than something the city enforces. It’s smart to talk with your neighbor before building on the line — and to check your HOA or deed restrictions, which are often stricter than city rules.
