Serving Stephenville, TX and surrounding areas. (254) 263-6954
Master Stephenville Fence installs privacy fences, wood fences, and farm fencing for homeowners across Godley, TX and Johnson County. Most Godley lots are larger than a typical suburb, and we build fences sized and set for the space - with posts deep enough to stay straight in North Texas clay soil. We reply within one business day.
Godley lots are generous by suburban standards, and a solid privacy fence creates a real backyard out of all that space. Our privacy fence installation uses properly set posts and quality boards that resist the warping and leaning that the clay soil in Johnson County can cause over time.
Most Godley homes were built in the 1990s and 2000s, and a lot of the original wood fencing from that era is now at or past the end of its useful life. A new wood fence gives you a clean look and stays structurally sound when installed correctly for North Texas conditions.
The rural character of Johnson County means many Godley properties include acreage that needs functional fencing for livestock, horses, or simply marking property lines. We install high-tensile wire, barbed wire, and pipe-and-rail systems sized for working rural properties.
For larger Godley lots where enclosing the full perimeter in wood is cost-prohibitive, chain link is a practical alternative that holds up to hail, wind, and soil movement with minimal upkeep. It works especially well for back-of-property runs on acreage lots.
Godley families who moved here for space often have dogs that need room to run without wandering onto county roads or neighboring properties. We install dedicated pet enclosures and full-perimeter dog fences designed for both containment and the larger lot sizes typical in this area.
Johnson County is squarely in North Texas storm country, and a hard hail event or straight-line wind can take out fence sections fast. We handle post replacement, board repair, and storm damage fixes across Godley so you are not waiting weeks for a repair crew to show up.
Godley sits on expansive clay soil that is one of the most active in North Texas. During wet springs, the soil swells and pushes upward against fence posts. During dry summers, it contracts and can leave posts partially unsupported. That cycle repeats every year, and it is the primary reason fences installed without adequate post depth and concrete footings start to lean within a few seasons. On larger Godley lots where post spacing is extended to cover more ground, this problem is amplified because each post carries more fence load.
The climate in Johnson County also tests fence materials hard. Spring and fall severe thunderstorm seasons regularly bring hail that dents metal and splits wood, while summer UV exposure dries and degrades untreated wood faster than most homeowners expect. Homes built in the 1990s and 2000s are hitting the 20 to 30-year mark, and original wood fences from that construction era are often at the end of their lifespan. Knowing which wood species and treatments hold up best in this climate - and which post-setting methods actually work in clay soil - is not something you learn from a how-to video.
Our crew works throughout Godley regularly, and we understand the local conditions that affect fence contractor work here. We pull permits through the appropriate Johnson County and City of Godley channels on every job that requires them, and we know the local setback and height rules that apply to residential lots versus rural acreage properties in this area.
Godley is a small Johnson County town with a growing number of new residents who moved out from Fort Worth looking for larger lots and a quieter pace. US Highway 67 is the main artery through town, connecting Godley south to Cleburne and north toward the Metroplex. The Godley Independent School District serves the town and the surrounding rural areas and is a big part of community identity here. We work on everything from new homes in the recently developed subdivisions off the main roads to larger acreage properties out on the county road network.
We also serve the broader Johnson County area. Cleburne, TX is the Johnson County seat and a regular stop for our crew, and Alvarado, TX to the north is another community where we handle fence installation and repair regularly.
Reach us at (254) 263-6954 or use the contact form below. We respond within one business day and are available 24/7, so you do not have to wait until business hours to get on the schedule.
We come to your Godley property to measure the fence line, walk the lot, and note any grade changes or soil conditions that affect the install. You get a written price before any commitment - no pressure, no hourly charge for the estimate.
If Godley requires a permit for your project, we take care of the filing. Once permits are in hand, we schedule the installation date and confirm it with you directly. Most Godley homeowners are commuting to Fort Worth during the day, and you do not need to be home for the full job.
We clean up all materials and debris when the job is done and walk the fence line with you before we leave. Any adjustments are handled on the spot, not scheduled for a follow-up visit.
We serve Godley and all of Johnson County. Call us or fill out the form and we will respond within one business day.
(254) 263-6954Godley is a small city in Johnson County, located about 30 miles southwest of Fort Worth along US Highway 67. The town has grown steadily in recent years as families move out from the Metroplex looking for larger properties and a more rural feel, and new subdivisions have been added on the edges of town during the last decade. Despite the growth, Godley retains its small-town character - the Godley ISD and the Wildcats football team are central to community life here. Most homes are detached single-family houses on half-acre to multi-acre lots, a far cry from the tight subdivisions closer to Fort Worth.
The housing stock in Godley is relatively newer compared to older Texas cities, with most homes built from the 1990s onward, but that stock is now hitting the age where roofs, fencing, and exterior materials need attention. The rural character of the surrounding Johnson County land means acreage properties and working ranches sit just outside the city limits, and fencing needs here range from residential privacy fences to full perimeter farm fence installations. Nearby Cleburne, TX is the county seat and commercial hub for the area, and Burleson, TX to the north is another growing Johnson County community where we work regularly.
