Most fence installations in Greenacres City run between $3,500 and $9,000, with vinyl and aluminum at the higher end and chain link coming in lower. We schedule free estimates across the 33454 zip code within a couple of days, and our crews know the CBS homes and drained flatlands here better than any out-of-town outfit ever will. If you’re tired of quotes that shift once the job starts, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll put a number in writing before anything gets dug.
Greenacres City wasn’t built gradually. It was platted and built out fast in the 1970s and 1980s on drained Everglades flatlands, which left a dense grid of single-story CBS tract homes. That’s the housing stock we work around every week. Most of those homes are now 40 to 50 years old, and their original fences are long past due. Add in a water table that sits just two to four feet below grade during the June-to-October wet season, and you’ve got fence post settings that punish anyone who skips on concrete depth. We don’t skip.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Greenacres City’s Preferred Fence Installation Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. That’s not a line on a brochure. It means the person who shakes your hand at the estimate is related to the person digging the post holes. Greenacres City homeowners have dealt with enough national outfits that quote one price on the phone and show up with another. We put every scope, every allowance, and every price change in writing before a single nail moves. That’s the whole point of hiring us.
Fence Installation in Greenacres City depends on knowing three things: the high water table, the hurricane wind codes, and the county’s inspection rhythm. Palm Beach County’s building department is methodical to a fault. A failed rough inspection can push a project back two to three weeks. We build that buffer into every timeline we give you, so you’re not standing in a half-finished yard wondering where the crew went. We’re not the cheapest bid in Greenacres City, and we won’t pretend to be. We’re the bid that holds.
Calls to (877) 610-1318 are answered by a live person, not a voicemail box. Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license number. Look it up before you sign anything. Ask anyone on your street, or check the license yourself. A local contractor who won’t show you his license number is telling you something by hiding it.
Our Fence Installation Services in Greenacres City
Wood Fence
Wood fencing in Greenacres City has to fight two enemies at once: the wet-season water table and the relentless Florida sun. We set pressure-treated posts in concrete deep enough to hold through soggy ground, and we recommend wood species that won’t warp in the humidity. A typical wood privacy fence here runs $3,500 to $7,000 for an average backyard. If you want a stained finish, tell us at the estimate and we’ll price it in writing.
Chain Link Fence
Chain link is the workhorse for Greenacres City backyards, especially where homeowners want to keep a dog in without blocking the sightline across the flat lot. Galvanized posts hold up better than the thin-walled stuff sold at the big box stores, and we use nine-gauge fabric as a standard, not an upgrade. Chain link runs $2,500 to $5,500 for most residential jobs in the 33454 zip code. It’s the most cost-effective way to fence a property line or secure a pool equipment pad.
Vinyl Fence
Vinyl has become the default choice for Greenacres City homeowners who don’t want to think about staining or rot. It shrugs off the wet-season humidity and doesn’t host termites, which is a real concern in this climate. Vinyl fence installation in Greenacres City runs $3,500 to $9,000 depending on linear feet and gate count. We stock white and tan vinyl locally, and we can match existing fence styles if you’re extending a section rather than replacing the whole run.
Aluminum Fence
Aluminum fencing gets specified a lot on corner lots and front yards in Greenacres City, where the HOA wants a certain look and the county wants a fence that won’t become a projectile in a hurricane. It’s lighter than iron, won’t rust in the humid air, and handles the wind load fine when engineered correctly. Aluminum fence installation runs $4,000 to $10,000 for typical residential frontage. We pull permits when the fence height or placement requires it, which it often does here.

If a brand matters to you, say so at the estimate and we’ll put it in the contract with the model number. No mystery brands off a van.
Common Fence Installation Problems We See in Greenacres City Homes
- Posts set too shallow for the water table. A fence company that doesn’t know Greenacres may set posts 24 inches deep and call it done. When the wet season raises the water table to within two feet of grade, those posts shift. We set posts below the movement zone and use concrete that can handle saturated ground.
- Gates sagging on original 1970s posts. Many original Greenacres City fences are anchored to posts that were undersized even in 1980. When a gate sags and drags across the grass, the fix usually means replacing the post entirely, not just the hinges.
- Wind-damaged panels from hurricane season. Palm Beach County sits in a full hurricane exposure zone. Fences that weren’t engineered for high-velocity wind lose panels every season. We install to Florida Building Code wind provisions, and inspectors verify it on permitted jobs.
- Rust on chain link near canal lots. Homes along the South Florida Water Management District canal network get more airborne moisture than inland lots. That humidity eats low-grade chain link quickly. We use heavier gauge, galvanized-and-coated materials on canal-adjacent properties.

How much does a fence cost in Greenacres City compared to nearby cities?
Fence pricing in Greenacres City is on par with Lake Worth and Palm Springs, typically $3,500 to $9,000 for a full vinyl or wood fence. The difference here is the water table and wind code requirements, which can add slightly to post-setting and engineering costs on some lots. Our free estimate gives you an exact number.
Do you pull permits for fence installation in Greenacres City?
Yes, when the fence height or placement requires one. Palm Beach County’s building department is thorough, and we handle the permit application and inspections as part of the job. A fence installed without a required permit can complicate a future home sale or insurance claim.
