Natural cedar is the defining fence of The Woodlands, and Dunn Fence builds it the way this community’s wooded lots demand: stick by stick on site, working around tree roots and slopes instead of forcing prefab panels into place. The finished side faces out toward neighbors and streets, as the covenants require.
Shade and moisture near Lake Woodlands and the neighborhood ponds age wood faster, so we add rot boards and offer professional staining to protect your investment. We’ll also help you gather what your Residential Design Review Committee needs before the first post goes in.
Wood fencing remains a top choice for The Woodlands homeowners because it blends natural beauty with practicality. It complements nearly any style of home, from modern to traditional, and offers the flexibility to be customized with stains or trim accents to make it uniquely yours.
Unlike prefabricated materials, every wood fence we install has its own character. It weathers beautifully, feels warm to the touch, and offers a look that simply can’t be replicated.
When it comes to balancing beauty, functionality, and cost, wood fencing continues to stand out as a smart, versatile choice for homeowners throughout The Woodlands & the surrounding Southeast Texas region.

Yes! At Dunn Fence Company, we specialize in professional wood fence installation throughout The Woodlands 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 The Woodlands 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.

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:
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 The Woodlands 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 The Woodlands:
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 The Woodlands, 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 The Woodlands 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 The Woodlands 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!
For the most accurate and up-to-date information, you can also call your local town or city building department directly.
