Wood Fence FAQ
Yes! At Dunn Fence Company, we specialize in professional wood fence installation throughout Houston and the surrounding areas. Our experienced crews are highly trained in the latest techniques to ensure your wood fence is built with precision, durability, and long-lasting beauty. We design every fence to withstand Southeast Texas’ tough weather conditions, giving you a fence that not only looks great but also performs and protects for years to come.
Wood fences are often one of the most affordable fencing options when it comes to up-front cost. While pricing can fluctuate based on material availability and project size, wood fencing is generally less expensive than materials like vinyl, aluminum, or composite. However, it’s important to factor in long-term maintenance, such as staining and sealing, to keep your wood fence protected and looking its best over time.
Yes! At Dunn Fence Company, every wood fence installation comes with our 1 year Workmanship Warranty, giving you peace of mind that your fence is built to last. While natural wood materials themselves typically do not carry a manufacturer’s warranty, we do offer certain upgraded wood options that include material warranties.
Talk to one of our fencing experts to learn more about the specific wood products available and how you can maximize both the beauty and protection of your new fence.
Getting your wood fence installed is a straightforward process with Dunn Fence Company. Typically, one of our fence experts can visit your property within a few days to provide a detailed estimate for your wood fence project anywhere in the Houston area. For even faster answers, feel free to call our office directly!
Once you approve your estimate, most wood fence installations are completed within 1 to 3 weeks. However, timelines can vary depending on the time of year and the specific details of your project.
If you select custom wood types, specialty posts, or decorative upgrades that require special ordering, it may extend the installation schedule. Our team will clearly identify any selections that could cause delays and offer faster alternatives whenever possible to keep your project on track.
Make it Easy on Yourself!
At Dunn Fence Company, we make getting a new wood fence simple. One of our wood fence experts can visit your property, take professional measurements, and help you design the perfect fence, without you having to lift a finger. As a full-service fence company specializing in wood fence installation across Houston, we handle everything from start to finish.
Want to Get a Rough Estimate Yourself?
If you’d like a ballpark idea before meeting with our team, here’s a simple way to estimate:
- Measure the length of each side of the area you want to enclose using a tape measure. (It doesn’t have to be exact, rough numbers are fine!)
- Add up the total length of all sides.
- Subtract the length of any buildings, sheds, or structures that will act as part of the barrier.
- Account for gates separately, since gates are priced differently than fencing. (A standard walk gate is about 4 feet wide, while a driveway gate could be 10 feet or more.)
Important Tip:
Wood fencing is typically priced by sections, not strictly by linear foot!
While “price per foot” may be mentioned, it’s only a rough guide, the number of sections (and any gates) will impact your final cost. Unfortunately, some installers in the Houston area use “price per foot” to give misleadingly low estimates. At Dunn Fence, we believe in transparency and are happy to explain exactly how pricing works so you can make the best decision.
Wood fencing is one of the most versatile options available, making it a favorite for a wide range of residential and commercial applications. Here are a few of the most popular ways homeowners and businesses use wood fencing across Houston:
Decorative Wood Fencing
Wood fencing offers endless design possibilities for enhancing the look of your property. Styles like wood picket fences and wood rail fences are perfect for showcasing front yards, gardens, and accent areas, creating beautiful visual appeal with a classic feel.
Wood Pool Fencing
Wood fences are a great choice for providing privacy around pool areas. While we generally recommend placing wood fencing around the perimeter of a pool yard (rather than directly adjacent to the water), it offers an attractive, private barrier to make your pool space feel like a true retreat.
Wood Perimeter Fencing
The traditional 6-foot dog-ear wood privacy fence is one of the most common fences we install in Houston, and for good reason. Wood perimeter fencing offers excellent privacy, security, and a natural, welcoming look that fits almost any style of home.
In most cases, it depends. Each city and municipality in the Houston area has its own rules regarding fence permits, including for wood fences. Factors like the height, location, and purpose of your fence can determine whether a permit is required. In some neighborhoods, HOA approval may also be needed.
At Dunn Fence Company, we’ve installed wood fences across nearly every part of Houston and surrounding communities. We’re familiar with local regulations and are happy to help guide you through the permitting process for your specific project. It’s just one more way we make the process easier for you!

Vinyl Fence FAQ
Yes! Dunn Fence Company is a leading vinyl fence contractor serving Houston and surrounding areas. Our experienced crews are specially trained in the latest vinyl fence installation techniques, ensuring your fence is built to look great, perform reliably, and stand strong against Houston’s tough weather conditions.
Absolutely! Vinyl fencing is an excellent option for homes and businesses across Houston. Built to handle the region’s harsh sun, strong winds, and heavy rains, vinyl fences offer outstanding durability with almost no maintenance required.
Unlike wood fencing, vinyl never needs painting, staining, or sealing, saving you time and long-term costs. If you’re looking for a modern, clean, and maintenance-free fencing solution, vinyl fencing is one of the smartest investments you can make.
Vinyl fences are extremely durable and built to last for decades with minimal upkeep. Unlike wood, vinyl won’t rot, warp, or require frequent repainting or chemical treatments. Plus, vinyl fencing is one of the most eco-friendly options available, it reduces the need for replacement materials over time and can be fully recycled when it’s eventually retired. With strength, longevity, and sustainability, vinyl fencing is a smart investment for Houston homeowners.
Vinyl fences are primarily made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), one of the most widely used synthetic plastics in the world. Known for its strength and versatility, PVC is also used in building products like windows, pipes, and siding. In fencing, it creates beautiful, durable designs that can withstand the elements while offering a clean, modern look for your property.
Yes! Vinyl fencing is considered one of the most eco-friendly fencing options available for Houston homeowners. Because vinyl fences are extremely durable, they reduce the need for frequent replacement, saving resources over time. Plus, vinyl is fully recyclable, and many new vinyl fences are made from recycled materials.
Another advantage: vinyl fencing requires no paints, stains, or harsh chemical treatments, making it a safer choice for your family, pets, and the surrounding environment.
Vinyl fences are made from nonporous PVC material, which means they do not accept paint easily, and that’s actually one of their biggest advantages. Many homeowners in Houston choose vinyl fencing specifically because it never needs painting, staining, or sealing.
Vinyl fences are designed to retain their original color and finish for their entire lifespan. While you can’t paint a vinyl fence, there are plenty of colors and styles available to customize the look to match your home and personal style.
In most cases, it depends. Each city and municipality in the Houston area has its own rules regarding fence permits, including for wood fences.

Chain Link Fence FAQ
Absolutely! Chain link fencing is a popular and practical option for homeowners across the greater Houston area. Lightweight yet strong, chain link fences are built to handle Texas’ harsh weather conditions. Thanks to their galvanized or vinyl-coated finish, they resist rust, corrosion, and wear over time, making them a durable, long-lasting choice for securing your property.
Chain link fences are extremely durable and built to withstand the everyday demands of Houston weather. From strong winds and heavy rains to typical wear from kids, pets, landscaping, and falling branches, chain link fencing holds up exceptionally well.
Choosing a vinyl-coated option, such as black or green, not only enhances the appearance of your fence but also adds an extra layer of corrosion protection—helping extend the life of your fence even further.
Chain link fences are one of the lowest-maintenance fencing options available. Our professional-grade chain link fencing is factory-treated to resist rust and corrosion, and options like vinyl coatings add even more protection against the elements.
To keep your fence looking its best, we recommend occasionally clearing away debris from the base of the fence and giving it a quick rinse with a hose as needed. That’s it, no painting, staining, or intensive upkeep required!
Permit requirements for chain link fences can vary depending on the city, neighborhood, and even the height or placement of your fence. Some areas in Houston may require a permit based on local building codes, and if you live in an HOA community, there could be additional approval needed.
At Dunn Fence Company, we’ve installed chain link fences across nearly every part of Houston and are happy to guide you through the permit process for your specific project. We make it easy to understand what’s needed so you can avoid any surprises.
For the most up-to-date information, you can also contact your local city or town building department directly.
A coated chain link fence features a colored protective layer applied over the metal. This coating does more than just enhance the appearance; it significantly increases the fence’s resistance to rust, corrosion, and everyday wear, helping extend its lifespan.
Coated chain link fences are very popular throughout the Houston area, especially around homes, pool areas, and athletic fields. The smooth texture of the coating also makes it a great option for spaces where children are frequently present. All coatings are factory-applied to ensure maximum quality, durability, and long-term protection.

A professionally installed composite fence can last 25 to 30 years or more with minimal upkeep. Composite materials resist fading, cracking, rotting, and warping—making them a long-term investment that holds up to Oklahoma’s toughest weather conditions.

They are a critical element for safety and security, used to protect building entrances, utility boxes, and other critical infrastructure from vehicle impact. They also help to manage traffic flow, define pedestrian walkways, and create a visual deterrent against unauthorized access, giving you lasting peace of mind.
We offer a variety of bollard types to suit different needs. Our options include fixed bollards for permanent protection, removable bollards for areas that require temporary access (such as for maintenance or deliveries), and high-security bollards designed to withstand significant vehicle impact. We can also provide decorative bollards that enhance the aesthetics of your property while serving a functional purpose.
Our professional installation process is designed to be seamless and reliable. It includes a thorough site assessment to determine the best placement, ensuring we meet all local safety codes. The bollards are then securely installed, often involving pouring a concrete foundation to ensure they remain stable and effective in the event of an impact.

Fence & Deck Staining FAQ
Staining and sealing are crucial for protecting your wood investment from the harsh Houston climate. The intense sun, heat, and humidity can cause wood to fade, crack, warp, and rot. A professional stain and sealant application creates a protective barrier that repels water, blocks UV rays, and prevents moisture damage, which extends the life of your fence or deck and keeps it looking beautiful for years.
Stain adds color and UV protection to the wood, while a sealer provides a clear, waterproof barrier. Many of the high-quality products we use, such as Wood Defender and Behr, are a combination of both, offering the benefits of rich color and long-lasting protection in a single application. We can assess your wood and recommend the best product to meet your needs and desired finish.
Our process is designed for a flawless, long-lasting finish. We start with a thorough cleaning to remove dirt, mildew, and old stain. This ensures the new product can properly penetrate the wood. After the wood dries, our team applies the stain or sealant with professional equipment, ensuring an even, consistent coat across all surfaces. We also take care to protect any surrounding plants and structures during the process.
The longevity of a stain or seal depends on the type of wood, the product used, and its exposure to the sun and elements. In the Houston climate, it’s generally recommended to re-stain your fence every 2-5 years. A deck, which receives more foot traffic, may need to be re-sealed every 1-3 years. Our team can provide a more specific recommendation based on your property’s unique conditions.
Yes, we specialize in restoring older wood. Our process begins with a deep cleaning to remove the gray, weathered layer and reveal the healthy wood underneath. This preparation is key to ensuring the new stain adheres correctly and revitalizes the appearance of your fence or deck, making it look as close to new as possible.
We are committed to using only professional-grade, high-quality products that are proven to perform well in the Houston climate. We primarily use and recommend top brands such as Wood Defender and Behr, which are known for their durability, UV resistance, and ability to protect wood from moisture and rot.
