We come to your property, measure the fence line, and look at the yard conditions. We ask about your goals - privacy, pet containment, security, or curb appeal. You receive a written estimate that covers materials, labor, permit fees, and any old fence removal before we dig a single post hole.
On installation day, our crew arrives, sets posts in concrete, and builds your fence. Once the work is done, we walk the finished fence with you and address anything that needs attention before we pack up. Your yard is left clean, and your fence is ready to use.
We carry full liability insurance on every project. You can request proof before work begins - no hesitation.
We visit your property, measure the fence line, and provide a written quote with every line item spelled out. You decide from there.
We have worked on properties across Erath County for years. We know the soil, the weather, and the city permit requirements here.

"We had a section of wood fence blow down in a spring storm and needed it replaced before our dogs got out. They came out the next day, gave us a fair written quote, and had the new section up within a week. Posts are set solid and the fence looks great."
Karen M., Stephenville - Fence repair
"Switched from wood to vinyl after repainting the same fence three summers in a row. The crew was on time, cleaned up everything before they left, and walked me through the whole fence before driving away. No maintenance and it still looks like new."
David R., Granbury - Vinyl fence installation
"Had them install a chain link fence around our pasture on the edge of town. They handled the permit, called 811 before digging, and set the posts deep enough to handle the clay out here. Straightforward process and the fence has held up through two storm seasons."

Most estimates are scheduled within the same week, and we are familiar with local permit requirements, soil conditions, and HOA rules across all the areas we serve.
Before you pick a material or call anyone for a quote, a few things are worth understanding about how fencing works in this part of Texas.
Cedar naturally resists rot and insects, making it the better long-term choice in Stephenville's hot, humid springs. Pressure-treated pine costs less upfront and performs well too - the right pick depends on your budget and how long you want the fence before major maintenance.
Stephenville's clay soil swells when it rains and shrinks when it dries. Posts set too shallow - or without concrete - shift with that movement. Deep-set, concrete-anchored posts resist this cycle. The American Fencing Association recommends setting at least one-third of each post underground. See guidance at americanfenceassociation.com.
Most fence installations within Stephenville city limits require a building permit. The permit process covers setback rules - how close your fence can be to the property line or street. Your contractor should pull the permit on your behalf. Skipping it can mean fines or a requirement to remove the fence. The City of Stephenville building office handles permit applications.
Stephenville has height limits that vary by fence location. Front-yard fences typically have a lower height limit than backyard or side-yard fences. HOA rules in newer subdivisions can add additional restrictions. Confirm height limits with your contractor before ordering materials.
A new wood fence should be sealed within the first year to protect against moisture and UV damage from Stephenville's intense summer sun. After that, plan to re-seal every two to three years. Skipping this step leads to graying, cracking, and early rot - especially at the base of boards near the ground.
Ask specifically: How deep will you set the posts, and will they be in concrete? Do you handle the city permit? Is old fence removal included? What does the written estimate cover? A contractor who cannot answer those questions directly is worth skipping. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (tdlr.texas.gov) publishes consumer guidance on contractor hiring.

Learn more about our company and credentialsIf fewer than 30% of your fence boards are damaged and the posts are still solid, repair is often the more cost-effective choice. When posts are leaning, rotting at the base, or more than half the fence is compromised, replacement usually costs less in the long run.
In Stephenville, spring and fall are the best seasons for fence work - the ground is more workable, concrete cures more predictably, and crew scheduling tends to be more flexible. Summer heat can slow post-hole digging in hard-baked clay soil, which occasionally affects labor time.
Building without a required permit can result in fines from the City of Stephenville and a requirement to remove or move the fence at your own expense. In some cases, it can also create title issues when you sell your home. It is not a risk worth taking when a reputable contractor handles it automatically.

Stephenville is the county seat of Erath County and home to roughly 22,000 residents. Known as the Cowboy Capital of the World, the city has deep roots in ranching and rodeo, with many properties that include acreage, barns, and outbuildings alongside the main house. Tarleton State University sits at the center of town and is one of the largest employers in the area, enrolling around 14,000 students and shaping much of the local rental market near campus.
The landscape around Stephenville reflects its agricultural identity. Erath County is one of the top dairy-producing counties in Texas, and many properties on the edges of town sit on working land that requires real fencing - not just decorative panels. Homeowners dealing with livestock, open lots, or rural-edge properties often have different fencing needs than those in established in-town neighborhoods, and we are comfortable working in both settings. Local resources like the Erath County government and the community data available online point to a city where most residents own their homes and invest in maintaining them.
The clay soil across Erath County, the intense summer heat, and the spring storms that roll through this part of North-Central Texas all create specific demands on outdoor structures. We have been working on properties here long enough to know what holds up and what does not. Whether your property is a standard lot near the Tarleton campus or a few acres out toward the county line, Master Stephenville Fence is the local fence contractor that knows this area.
