AfterFast, Reliable Fence Installation Across Mansfield
A new fence in Mansfield typically runs $3,500-$9,000, depending on the material and how many linear feet you’re enclosing. Most jobs take two to four days from first post hole to final gate adjustment. If you’re in the 76063 and tired of looking at a leaning, sun-bleached fence every time you pull into the driveway, call Barrett & Sons Construction at (877) 610-1318 for a straight answer on what it’ll cost.
We’re not a franchise that sends strangers from another county. Tom Barrett’s sons run the crews, and they know Mansfield’s neighborhoods because they’ve built fences on them for years. The Blackland Prairie clay under this city doesn’t treat fence posts kindly, and neither do the August droughts. We install for that reality, not for a showroom photo.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Mansfield’s Preferred Fence Installation Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998 and he never changed the model: his name goes on the truck, his sons run the crews, and his phone number rings where he can hear it. When a Mansfield homeowner calls about a fence, they’re talking to someone who will be at the hardware store on Broad Street that same week. That matters when you’ve already been burned by a national outfit that quoted one number on the phone and handed you a different bill at the door.
Every fence job we quote in Mansfield comes with a written line-item price before we pick up a shovel. If the scope changes, you get a written change order before any new work happens. We don’t do surprises at invoice time. And every completed fence is backed by our 90-Day Done Right Promise: if something isn’t right, one call brings Tom back. For a homeowner who has lived through “that’s not covered” more than once, that promise reads differently.
Our Fence Installation team serves Mansfield neighborhoods from the historic homes near Broad Street to the newer subdivisions off Debbie Lane and in the 76063. Ask anyone on your street about us, or look up the license number yourself. We publish everything.
Our Fence Installation Services in Mansfield
Wood Fence
Wood fences still dominate Mansfield backyards, and for good reason: they’re the most affordable way to get six feet of privacy between you and the neighbor’s afternoon patio speakers. The catch is the weather. Mansfield’s summer heat and alkaline clay soils break down untreated cedar and pine posts faster than most manufacturers will admit. We use pressure-treated posts set below grade with proper drainage, and we quote the job knowing a 15-year fence won’t last 15 years if the bottom rail sits in water. Expect $3,500-$9,000 for a typical 150-200 linear-foot yard.
Chain Link Fence
Chain link is the practical choice for Mansfield pet owners who’d rather their dog run the full yard than redecorate the living room. It’s also what you need around a pool short-term while the city inspects your enclosure. The post-tension slab issue doesn’t typically apply along property lines, but gate post holes near the driveway often hit concrete remnants from construction. We handle that routinely. Chain link costs less per foot than any other option, and we’ll give you an honest number on the phone.
Vinyl Fence
Vinyl is the fence you buy when you’re done re-staining wood every third spring. Mansfield’s UV exposure is real, and cheap vinyl yellows and gets brittle within five years. We install solid, thick-walled vinyl that’s built for Texas sun, not a Michigan showroom. One thing to know for Mansfield specifically: the clay soil expands and contracts more than most people expect, and vinyl posts need deep bedding with gravel drainage or you’ll see them drift out of plumb by year three. We account for that in every estimate.
Aluminum Fence
Aluminum is the correct choice for Mansfield homeowners who want an ornamental look without signing up for annual rust maintenance on iron. It handles the occasional hail storm and the constant dust without complaint. Aluminum fence installation in Mansfield runs $4,000-$10,000 for a typical yard. The higher number comes with features like arched gates, decorative finials, or a long run along a corner lot on Matlock Road.

Common Fence Installation Problems We See in Mansfield Homes
- Post lean from Blackland Prairie clay movement. The same shrink-swell soil that cracks Mansfield foundations also shifts fence posts. We see it most in neighborhoods built 2005-2015, where original fences were set shallow to save the builder money. Re-setting posts right means going deeper and adding drainage gravel, not just tamping the hole again.
- Rotted bottom rails from irrigation overspray. Mansfield’s turf-grass lawns need heavy watering through summer. Sprinkler heads set too close to the fence soak the bottom rail daily, and the rot follows within a few seasons. We can re-route or cap sprinkler heads when we build, which fewer installers bother to do.
- Gate frames pulled out of square. On Mansfield corner lots and through-gates to backyard shops, a heavy gate on a wood post will sag. We brace gate posts with steel and set them in concrete, because a dropped gate you have to lift to close isn’t a gate.
- Storm-downed sections after North Texas wind events. March and April frontal systems push 60-plus mph gusts through Mansfield. Fences that were stapled instead of screwed, or built on undersized posts, don’t survive. We routinely rebuild sections in neighborhoods near Mansfield’s lakeside areas after spring storms.
Pricing for Fence Installation in Mansfield, TX
A full backyard privacy fence in Mansfield runs $3,500-$9,000 on average, depending on material, terrain, and how accessible the property is. Wood lands on the lower end, vinyl in the middle, aluminum toward the top. Factors that change your number: amount of demolition and haul-off, whether the old posts were set in concrete, how far the crew has to carry materials, any HOA or city-required setbacks, and whether you’re replacing a shared fence line with a neighbor. That last one matters in Mansfield’s master-planned communities, where shared lines often come with written agreements. We’ll walk you through it and put every allowance in writing before work starts.
Here’s how the numbers break out in Mansfield’s market:
- Wood fence installation: $3,500-$9,000
