AfterFast, Reliable Fence Installation Across Lewisville
A new fence in Lewisville typically runs $3,500 to $9,000 for vinyl, and $4,000 to $10,000 for aluminum. Most residential jobs in the 75057 and 75067 zip codes take two to five working days once posts are set. If you’re calling from Castle Hills or a lakefront lot off Swisher Road, you already know Lewisville isn’t a one-size-fits-all fence town – and neither are we. Barrett & Sons Construction has built and repaired fences throughout Lewisville for years, and we’d rather tell you what your lot actually needs than quote a number that won’t hold. Call (877) 610-1318 and Tom Barrett or one of his sons will walk you through it.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Lewisville’s Preferred Fence Installation Company

Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews that work Lewisville fence lines. When you call, a live person answers – 24 hours a day, seven days a week. That matters in a city where a storm can drop a section of fence on a Friday night and you need to know someone will actually pick up.

We’ve set posts in the 75067 clay, worked HOA design-review boards in Castle Hills, and pulled floodplain permits for lakefront properties near Lake Lewisville.

Our Fence Installation Services in Lewisville
Vinyl Fence
Vinyl fence is the most common choice we install across Lewisville, from the 1970s ranch homes in 75067 to the newer subdivision lots in 75077. It handles the North Texas sun without rotting or warping, and it never needs paint. On Lewisville’s expansive clay, we set vinyl posts with pre-wetting protocols so the first summer shrink-swell cycle doesn’t pull them out of plumb. A typical vinyl fence run in Lewisville ranges $3,500 to $9,000 depending on linear feet and whether you’re doing privacy height or picket style.
Privacy Fence
Privacy fence in Lewisville means something specific: 6 to 8 foot panels that block sightlines from neighbors, walking paths, and the busier thoroughfares like FM 1171 and Main Street. We build privacy fence with steel-reinforced posts where clay movement is a concern, which is most of this city. If you’re on a corner lot in 75057 or backing up to a greenbelt, we’ll recommend the post depth and footing approach that keeps your line straight through three summers, not one.
Fence Gates
Gates take more abuse than any other part of a fence, and in Lewisville the clay makes it worse. A gate post that isn’t set deep enough starts dragging within a season. We set gate posts on deeper concrete footings than the rest of the line, and we build the gate framing to carry its own weight so the hinge post doesn’t lean. Whether you need a simple walk gate in 75077 or a wide double drive gate off Lake Park Road, we write the gate scope separately so you know exactly what it costs.
Wood Fence
Wood fence still makes sense for a lot of Lewisville homes, especially the older ranch styles where cedar or treated pine matches the original character. The trade-off is maintenance – North Texas heat and the wet-dry cycle of Blackland Prairie soil will eventually move wood posts. We use pressure-treated posts rated for ground contact and recommend steel post anchors where the lot has a known shrink-swell history. If you’re replacing a rotted wood fence in 75067, we’ll tell you honestly whether wood or vinyl is the better long-term call for your specific lot.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lewisville
We stock and install fence materials from manufacturers that stand behind their product warranties, because a fence is only as good as what goes into the ground. For vinyl and aluminum fence runs across Lewisville, we carry GAF-rated accessory lines and specify hardware from names that hold up to Texas heat and clay movement. We keep common replacement parts for Lewisville fence repairs on hand, which means faster turnaround when a storm takes down a section or a gate hinge fails. If you want to know exactly what’s going on your fence line before we start, we’ll show you the brand and the spec sheet in writing.
Common Fence Installation Problems We See in Lewisville Homes
- Posts heaving out of plumb in Blackland Prairie clay. Lewisville’s clay shrinks hard in summer and swells in wet months. Posts set without pre-wetting the subgrade or without deep enough footings lean within one season cycle. We pre-wet and set deeper than code minimums on every clay lot.
- Lakefront fence lines hitting a dual permit chokepoint. Lots near Lake Lewisville fall under the city’s floodplain development permit AND a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 review. Contractors unfamiliar with Lewisville miss this and the city tags the project mid-build. We pull both, and we write the timeline into your scope so you’re not surprised.
- HOA design boards rejecting installed fences in Castle Hills. Castle Hills and similar master-planned neighborhoods have private architectural standards on top of city code. A fence style installed without design review can trigger teardown costs. We handle the HOA submittal before we dig.
- Foundation distress at the fence line on older homes. Many 1970s to 1990s Lewisville ranch homes show slab movement from decades of clay shrink-swell. When a fence line runs parallel to a settled slab, we flag what we see and write any needed adjustment into a change order before closing the line. You approve it, then we build it.
Pricing for Fence Installation in Lewisville, TX
Fence installation in Lewisville runs on linear feet, post depth, and what the lot actually requires once we look at it. Here are the two most common fence types we install in Lewisville, with market-calibrated ranges:
| Fence Type | Typical Lewisville Range |
|---|---|

FAQs - Fence Installation in Lewisville
Yes, in most cases a fence on a lakefront or near-shore lot in Lewisville requires a city floodplain development permit, and depending on the lot, a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 or Nationwide Permit review. This dual review can add 6 to 10 weeks to a timeline if nobody flagged it. We pull both before we break ground, and we write the schedule into your scope so there’s no mid-project surprise. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you what your specific lot triggers.
The Blackland Prairie clay in 75057 shrinks and swells significantly with seasonal moisture, which is why posts set at standard depths often heave out of plumb within a year or two. We pre-wet the subgrade before pouring, set posts deeper than code minimum, and use concrete footings sized for the clay, not for average soil. On a 1980s ranch in 75067, our crew hit clay that had shrunk away from the original slab and left a 3-inch gap at the gate post; we pre-wet, re-set on deeper footings, and wrote the extra scope into a change order before closing the line. That’s how we keep your fence straight through Lewisville summers.
Yes, Castle Hills lots carry private HOA architectural standards on top of city permitting, and a fence style installed without design review can get torn out and rebuilt at your expense. We submit the design review before we dig, and we’ll match the approved style, height, and materials to the HOA’s written standards. You’ll see the approval in your scope document before the first post is set. Call (877) 610-1318 if you’re in Castle Hills and want to know what your HOA requires.
We document what we find, explain what it means for your fence line, and write any necessary adjustment into a change order before we proceed. On older Lewisville ranch homes with slab movement, a fence line that runs parallel to a settled foundation sometimes needs a different post depth or a small retaining approach at the corner. You approve the written scope, then we build. No surprise invoices, ever. That’s the whole point of the written change order.
Yes, Denton County gets more frequent ice storms than areas just south, and those storms can shut down a job site for a few days and affect concrete curing. We schedule vinyl fence work around cold-weather curing windows, and if an ice event hits mid-install, we adjust the schedule and tell you exactly when we’re back on site. Your fence doesn’t get rushed through a freeze, because a rushed cold-weather pour is a future post failure. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free estimate, and we’ll give you a straight answer on timing.
