AfterFast, Reliable Fence Installation Across Everman
Fence installation in Everman, TX is our bread and butter. Whether you need a wood privacy fence along Enon Avenue or a chain link fence for a corner lot near the high school, we pull permits, follow local depth requirements on every post, and put the price in writing before we dig the first hole. Most Everman fence jobs run $3,500 to $9,000 depending on material and linear feet. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll walk your lot, measure it, and hand you a line-item quote on the spot.
We’ve been doing this since 1998, and Tom Barrett’s name is on the truck. If a post leans or a gate sags, you call one number and Tom comes back. That’s the 90-Day Done Right Promise, written on every contract.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Everman’s Preferred Fence Installation Company
Everman is not Burleson. The soil shifts, the lots are tight, and the houses are old. We know that. Our crews set posts in Everman with 30-inch holes and flared concrete footings because the blackland clay under 76140 will heave a shallow post in a single wet-dry cycle. National outfits quote a fence from a call center and show up with a crew that’s never worked Tarrant County clay. We live this.
Tom’s sons run the crews. They’re not “technicians” dispatched from a regional hub. They’re the same people you’ll see at the hardware store. When you call (877) 610-1318, a live person answers, 24/7. Not a voicemail box. Not a call center in another state.
Every fence job in Everman comes with a written change order before any scope changes. If we hit a buried line or find the old posts were set 18 inches deep, you’ll see the cost on paper before work resumes. No surprise invoice at the end. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date. That’s how we run it.
Our Fence Installation Services in Everman
Wood Fence Installation
Wood privacy fences are the most common request we get in Everman. Those 1950s and 1960s ranch homes on Tally Ho Drive and Enon Avenue were built close together, and homeowners want a real barrier between yards. We use pressure-treated posts rated for ground contact, set 30 inches deep with gravel backfill, and run cedar or treated pine pickets. On a standard 6-foot privacy fence in Everman, expect $3,500 to $7,500 for a typical backyard run. The price depends on linear feet, gate count, and whether we’re tearing out an old fence first.
Chain Link Fence Installation
Chain link still makes sense on Everman lots where the goal is containment, not concealment. Dog runs, side yards, and commercial properties along W Everman Parkway get a lot of chain link. It’s the most affordable option, and it holds up to clay soil movement better than rigid panel systems. Our chain link fences use galvanized or vinyl-coated fabric and posts set below the frost line with concrete collars.
Vinyl Fence Installation
Vinyl is growing in Everman because homeowners are tired of restaining wood every two years under a Texas sun that hits 100°F for weeks at a stretch. Vinyl won’t rot at the base the way untreated wood does, and it doesn’t need paint. But vinyl is not a set-it-and-forget-it product on clay. Posts still need 30-inch depth and proper drainage. A typical vinyl fence install in Everman runs $3,500 to $9,000.
Aluminum Fence Installation
Aluminum fence is the right call for Everman homeowners who want a clean, low-maintenance property line without a full privacy wall. It’s popular around pools and along frontages where the city’s older setback rules make a heavy wood wall feel overbearing. Aluminum won’t rust like iron and it’s lighter than steel, which matters when you’re putting it on expansive clay. Aluminum fence installation in Everman typically lands between $4,000 and $10,000.

Trusted Brands We Service in Everman
We don’t install mystery material off the back of a van. For Everman fence jobs, we carry and install brands you can look up: Simonton and Ply Gem are in our regular rotation for vinyl and composite lines, and PGT shows up on jobs where wind rating matters. For aluminum and ornamental work, we source from manufacturers with published specs, not whatever the supply yard had on clearance. The point is this: you’ll know what’s going in your yard before we order it, and it’ll be a brand with a reputation.
Common Fence Installation Problems We See in Everman Homes
- Posts set too shallow. The old fences in Everman were frequently dug to 18-24 inches, which is not enough for blackland clay. Those posts heave in wet years and lean by August. We dig to 30 inches minimum, with flared concrete footings and gravel base.
- Untreated wood in ground contact. Alternating wet-dry cycles rot untreated pine at the base within a few years. We see snapped posts at ground level all over the 76140 zip code. We only set pressure-treated or cedar posts rated for ground contact.
- Gates that sag from shifting corner posts. A corner post that moves an inch throws the whole gate frame out of square. We reinforce corner and gate posts with steel and install adjustable hinges so the gate stays plumb through drought and rain cycles.
- DIY replacements that skip drainage. A homeowner sets a post in a hole with concrete and no gravel, and the first heavy rain turns it into a bathtub. Water pools, clay swells, and the post tilts. We backfill with gravel and slope the concrete collar so water drains away.
One job that sticks with us was a rotting wood privacy fence on a 1960s ranch near Enon Avenue. The original posts had been set 18 inches deep in clay, no gravel, untreated wood. We pulled permits, dug 30-inch holes with flared footings below frost line, used pressure-treated posts rated for ground contact, and reset the entire 80-foot run of cedar pickets. The old gate had sagged from a shifting corner post, so we built a new frame with steel reinforcement and adjustable hinges. That fence is still plumb. That’s the standard.

FAQs - Fence Installation in Everman
Fence posts in Everman should be set 30 inches deep, minimum. The blackland clay under 76140 shrinks and swells dramatically between droughts and heavy rains. A post set at 18-24 inches will heave within a couple of seasons. We dig 30-inch holes, add gravel at the base for drainage, and flare the concrete footing so the post resists frost heave and clay expansion. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll check your existing posts and tell you what’s actually going on underground.
Yes, Everman requires a permit for fence replacement and new fence installation. The city inspections department wants to see footing depth and setback compliance. We handle the permit application as part of the job, the inspector signs off, and you keep the paperwork. The permit inspector works for you, not for me. That’s why we pull permits on every eligible fence in Everman, no exceptions.
Wood fences in Everman rot at the base because untreated pine or cedar sits in ground contact through alternating wet and dry cycles. The blackland clay holds water against the post, then bakes in summer. That cycle rots wood fast. The fix is pressure-treated posts rated for ground contact, set with a gravel bed so water drains away from the base. We also keep pickets an inch off grade so they’re not wicking moisture from the soil. Call
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. If a post is leaning but not rotted, we can sometimes plumb it and re-set the concrete. More often in Everman, the post has rotted below grade or the footing was so shallow that the whole thing has shifted. In those cases, patching one post just buys a year before another one goes. We’ll walk the fence line and tell you honestly which posts can be saved and which need to go. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a straight answer, not a sales pitch.
For a small Everman lot, a 6-foot wood privacy fence is usually the best balance. You get full privacy without the bulk of masonry, and wood posts on 8-foot centers don’t disturb as much of the yard as larger panel systems. If you want lower maintenance, vinyl is the second choice, but it’s more expensive upfront. Chain link gives you zero privacy, aluminum gives you limited privacy. For a small lot on a street like Tally Ho Drive, wood is the smart play. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll measure the lot and walk you through the options.
