AfterFast, Reliable Fence Installation Across Davie
Fence installation in Davie typically runs $3,500 to $10,000 depending on material, linear footage, and whether your lot falls under the Town’s agricultural overlay. Most residential projects take 2 to 5 days once permits clear. If you’re comparison shopping right now, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk you through what a compliant Davie quote should include, line by line.
We’ve worked on CBS ranches off Flamingo Road, equestrian lots near Robbins Preserve, and newer subdivisions east of University Drive. Davie isn’t like other South Florida towns. The permitting alone trips up contractors who don’t work here regularly. We know the Town’s building department, the agricultural overlay process, and what the HVHZ wind-load requirements actually demand of a fence. That local knowledge is the difference between a fence that survives the next hurricane and one that ends up in your neighbor’s yard.
Key Takeaways: Fence Installation in Davie
- Lead price range: $3,500-$9,000 for vinyl, $4,000-$10,000 for aluminum
- Permits: Agricultural-zoned lots need a dual-track Town of Davie approval, even for replacements
- Wind rating: Fence must meet Broward County HVHZ standards; push your contractor to document it
- Soil: High water table means gravel drainage at post bases is non-negotiable
- Free estimates: Call (877) 610-1318, no trip charge inside the county
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Davie’s Preferred Fence Installation Company
We’re not a franchise. Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews that work in Davie today. When you call, a live person answers. Not a call center. Not a voicemail box that promises a callback within 48 hours. If something goes wrong on a Davie job, Tom wants to know about it. He publishes his name, address, and license number. Look it up before you sign anything.
Our Fence Installation crews have worked on properties from the horse farms near Hancock Road to the townhouse communities west of Pine Island Road. We’ve filed under the Town’s agricultural overlay, coordinated with Broward County stormwater requirements, and pulled permits for fences that meet HVHZ wind-load standards. That’s not background noise. That’s the work.
Every quote comes as a written scope of work with allowances listed on paper. Every change order arrives in writing before a single post goes in the ground. And every completed job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise. If the fence isn’t done right, one call brings Tom back. No argument, no fine print. That’s how we’ve operated for over 29 years.
Our Fence Installation Services in Davie
Aluminum Fence Installation
Aluminum is the smart choice for Davie’s wind zone. A properly engineered aluminum fence rated for Broward County HVHZ standards won’t corrode in the humidity and won’t snap in a storm the way untreated steel or cheap box-store panels will. On a 1970s CBS ranch off SW 61st Avenue, we replaced a failed cedar privacy fence with a 6-foot aluminum fence rated for the HVHZ wind zone. Because the lot is zoned for horses, we had to file under the Town’s agricultural overlay; our scope of work listed the existing paddock gate and required a second inspection sign-off before we could close the punch list. That’s the kind of detail a fence quote has to account for in Davie.
Vinyl Fence Installation
Vinyl fence installation in Davie runs $3,500-$9,000 for a typical residential yard. Vinyl holds up well in the humidity, but the panels and posts have to be rated for the wind speeds this area actually gets. We install vinyl fence systems engineered for high-velocity hurricane zones, not the lighter residential panels that fail at the first tropical storm. Posts get gravel beds at the bottom before concrete goes in. Without that drainage, Davie’s water table will push and heave the post within one wet season.
Wood Fence Installation
Wood fences work in Davie if you accept that they’re a maintenance commitment. The heat and summer rainfall eat through untreated pine and cedar fast. We build wood privacy fences with pressure-treated posts, stainless hardware, and a clear conversation up front about what that fence will look like in year five. If you’re set on wood, we’ll do it right. If you’re open to alternatives, we’ll tell you honestly whether aluminum or vinyl will serve you better on your specific lot.
Chain Link Fence Installation
Chain link remains common on Davie’s agricultural-zoned lots, especially where paddocks and horse turnout areas need enclosure. Galvanized chain link with powder-coated posts holds up decades in South Florida conditions. But chain link still has to meet wind-load requirements, and on equestrian lots, the height and corner-post spacing often needs agricultural overlay sign-off. We handle that paperwork so you don’t get a stop-work order on a fence you needed last month.

Trusted Brands We Service in Davie
We carry and install premium fence systems from Ply Gem and PGT, and we stock parts locally so Davie customers don’t wait two weeks for a gate hinge or replacement panel to ship from a warehouse in Georgia. Ply Gem vinyl fence lines engineered for coastal wind zones, along with PGT’s aluminum systems, give you products you can actually research before you commit. If a contractor hands you a quote that just says “vinyl fence,” ask what brand. If they can’t answer, that’s your answer.
Common Fence Installation Problems We See in Davie Homes
- Wind-load failures: Contractors install vinyl or aluminum fence panels rated for standard residential use, not Broward County HVHZ conditions. The first hurricane season rips the panels clean off the posts. We quote fences engineered for the actual wind speeds in Davie and document the rating on your scope of work.
- Skipped agricultural overlay permits: On equestrian-zoned lots, even a backyard fence replacement requires Town of Davie agricultural overlay approval. Contractors from Plantation or Pembroke Pines rarely know this. We file the dual-track paperwork before we start, so the only inspector visit you get is the one that signs off.
- Heaving posts from saturated soil: Davie sits on high-water-table terrain. Posts set directly in concrete with no gravel drainage at the base will heave and lean within a year or two. We bed every post in drainage stone before concrete goes in.
- Undocumented compliance: A fence installed without paperwork showing the wind-load rating won’t help your insurance claim after a storm. We provide documentation so you can file confidently if damage ever happens.
Pricing for Fence Installation in Davie, FL
Here’s what we quote for the two most common fence types in Davie:
| Fence Type | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Vinyl Fence Installation | $3,500-$9,000 |
| Aluminum Fence Installation | $4,000-$10,000 |
What moves the number within those ranges? Linear footage is the biggest driver, then panel height, gate count, post depth, and whether your lot falls under the Town’s agricultural overlay. That overlay adds a permit step and sometimes an inspection sign-off, which is a real cost and a real delay. Contractors who don’t quote for it are either unfamiliar with Davie or planning to skip the permit. Chain link runs lower; wood privacy fences sit mid-range. Every quote is free, itemized, and written. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll get you a number you can actually compare against the next bid.

FAQs - Fence Installation in Davie
Yes. Davie is one of the only incorporated municipalities in South Florida that legally preserves equestrian zoning and horse-trail easements throughout residential areas. Any fence on an agriculturally zoned lot, including a straight replacement, must clear the Town’s agricultural overlay permitting. That’s a separate step from the standard building permit and requires documentation of the existing equestrian use. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you exactly what your lot requires before you sign anything.
Your fence must be engineered for Broward County’s high-velocity hurricane zone, known as HVHZ. Standard residential fence panels rated for inland wind speeds won’t pass inspection in Davie, and they’ll fail in the first serious storm anyway. We quote only fence systems rated for the actual wind loads this area gets, and we document that rating on your written scope of work.
Davie sits on low-lying, Everglades-adjacent terrain with an extremely high water table. Post holes fill with groundwater during excavation, and soil stays saturated for days after summer storms. We bed every post in gravel before concrete is poured so water drains away from the post base. Skipping that step means heaving and leaning within the first wet season. It also means the concrete pour has to be timed around drainage, not just the calendar.
Keep the written scope of work, the permit application with the agricultural overlay approval if your lot required it, the final inspection sign-off, and any documentation showing the fence’s wind-load rating. If you ever file a claim after storm damage, that paperwork proves the fence was built to code. A fence installed without it won’t help your claim and may not help your premium. We provide all of it to every Davie customer at the end of the job. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate.
Often yes. Horse paddock fencing in Davie has to clear the agricultural overlay, and the Town reviews style and height against the equestrian zoning requirements for your specific lot. Corner-post spacing, gate placement, and even the open-space ratio can trigger additional review. We handle that paperwork on paddock fences regularly. If you’re pricing a paddock fence, call

What Davie Customers Say
Trusted by homeowners across Davie and surrounding areas.
"Full kitchen down to the studs. He found the previous owner had done the wiring himself and it was genuinely dangerous, showed me, and put it right properly rather than boxing it back in."
"He pulled every permit and had every inspection signed off. The last contractor we used told us permits were optional and I have been paying for that ever since."
"Genuinely good builders and I would use them again. Site tidiness slipped a bit in the middle stretch and I had to mention it, after which it was spotless every evening."
