Fast, Reliable Fence Installation Across Aransas Pass
Fence installation in Aransas Pass typically runs $3,500 to $9,000 for a standard residential yard, with vinyl and aluminum at the higher end and chain link at the lower. We work from Ingleside on the north side down through Portland, Rockport, and Corpus Christi, but Aransas Pass has been a regular stop for us since before Harvey changed the fencing landscape here. We also handle Kitchen Remodeling in Aransas Pass for homeowners rebuilding after the storm. The salt air off the ship channel, the post-2017 rebuild codes, and the patchwork of elevated homes and older pier-and-beam bungalows all shape what kind of fence actually holds up in this town. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll talk through what you need.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Aransas Pass’s Preferred Fence Installation Company
Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews that come out to Aransas Pass. That matters when you’re looking at a fence that has to survive a hurricane season, because the crew measuring your lot is the same crew pouring concrete for your posts. We’re not a franchise dispatching strangers from three states over. Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license number. Look it up before you sign anything.
Aransas Pass homeowners have already been through enough with national outfits quoting one price on the phone and showing up with another. We don’t operate that way. Every scope change, every allowance, every price adjustment comes as a written change order before a single post moves. And every job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If something’s not right, one call brings Tom back. That’s how we’ve worked for over 29 years.
Our Fence Installation Services in Aransas Pass
Wood Fence
Wood fencing in Aransas Pass needs to be built for wind and salt, not just for looks. The constant onshore breeze off the ship channel between Corpus Christi Bay and the Gulf carries enough salt to rust standard hardware in a few seasons, so we use stainless or marine-grade fasteners and connectors. Post depth matters more here than inland. In neighborhoods like the ones off Wheeler Avenue and along FM 1069, we set posts below the windthrow line and use concrete that bonds well with Aransas Pass’s sandy soil. Cedar and pressure-treated pine are the workhorses, and we’ll tell you straight which one holds up better for your lot’s exposure.

Chain Link Fence
If you’re fencing a yard near Conn Brown Harbor or along the ship channel side of town, chain link is often the practical choice. It lets the breeze through instead of fighting it, which matters when a tropical storm pushes sustained winds across Aransas Pass. We install galvanized and vinyl-coated chain link with line posts set in concrete, and we check every gate hinge for salt corrosion before we leave. Chain link also tends to be the most budget-friendly option for larger lots in the 78335 and 78336 ZIP codes.

Vinyl Fence
Vinyl fence installation in Aransas Pass runs $3,500 to $9,000 for a typical yard, and it’s become one of the most popular choices in the post-Harvey rebuilds. It doesn’t rot, doesn’t rust, and doesn’t need painting, which appeals to homeowners who are tired of maintaining things after years of reconstruction. The catch is wind. Vinyl panels catch more wind load than chain link or spaced pickets, and with the exposure many Aransas Pass properties have, we run heavier-gauge posts and add extra concrete at the gates. We don’t cut corners on post depth here, ever.

Aluminum Fence
Aluminum fencing makes sense for homes in the elevated rebuild zones, especially where finished floors are two to four feet above base flood elevation and you want something that looks substantial without adding significant wind resistance. Aluminum fence installation in Aransas Pass runs $4,000 to $10,000. The salt environment on the water side of town will eat cheap powder coating, so we spec marine-grade finishes on any aluminum work within sight of the bay. It’s also a common pick for pool enclosures, where the building code has firm height and spacing requirements we’re familiar with.

Trusted Brands We Service in Aransas Pass
We don’t install mystery products off a van. Fence work here pulls from the same supply relationships we’ve built for our Fence Installation trade across Coastal Bend Texas. For fence hardware and gate systems, we stock parts locally rather than waiting on an out-of-state warehouse, which means less downtime when you’re missing a hinge or a latch. That matters in Aransas Pass, where the salt air chews through cheap parts faster than most suppliers expect. We’re also doing plenty of Driveway & Pavers in Aransas Pass work alongside fence projects, since a new fence and a new driveway often go in together after a rebuild or a lot elevation.
Common Fence Installation Problems We See in Aransas Pass Homes
- Salt corroding standard hardware on water-adjacent properties. Homes near the ship channel or Conn Brown Harbor get constant salt spray, and zinc-plated hardware fails fast. We use marine-grade or stainless fasteners on every Aransas Pass fence, not just the ones on the water. If a fence was installed before 2017 with cheap hardware, you can usually see the rust streak stains within a few years.
- Wind-load failures on fences built to inland standards. The wind exposure here is real, and a fence built like it’s going up in San Antonio will lean or blow over in the first serious storm. Aransas Pass sits right on the exposed coastal plain, with nothing to slow down wind coming off the Gulf. Posts need to be deeper, concrete needs to be properly cured, and panel spacing needs to account for uplift.
- Post-Harvey rebuilds with mismatched property lines and uneven grade. After 2017, a lot of Aransas Pass lots were regraded or elevated, which means old survey stakes and old fence lines don’t line up the way they used to. We find this constantly in the rebuilding neighborhoods: the house got raised 4 feet, but the fence stayed at the old height. That changes drainage, gate swing, and property-line sightlines. We verify lot lines before we dig.
- Old pier-and-beam bungalows with shifted or rotted fence posts. The pre-Harvey stock was largely modest 1950s to 1970s fishing-community homes, and a lot of their original fences are still standing but not sound. Sandy soil plus decades of moisture wick through the post bases and rot them from below ground level. You can’t see it until the fence starts leaning, and by then the repair usually costs more than a fresh installation would have.

Most Aransas Pass fence projects start within two weeks of the signed contract and permit approval, depending on current crew availability. Smaller repairs can often be scheduled sooner. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a straight answer, not a vague “we’ll be in touch.”

Aransas Pass pricing typically runs the same or slightly lower than Corpus Christi, at $3,500 to $9,000 for a standard residential fence installation. The bigger variable isn’t city-to-city difference; it’s your specific lot’s wind exposure, soil, and flood-zone requirements, which can add concrete depth and hardware upgrades. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact line-item quote.
Yes, we pull permits and schedule inspections on every eligible fence job in Aransas Pass. Fences in flood zones and windstorm zones can have specific code requirements around post depth, anchoring, and height, and we’d rather have the inspector sign off than leave you holding a failed inspection. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That’s why I like him.
