Our crew just finished a cedar privacy fence for a homeowner in the Zilker neighborhood. The backyard needed complete privacy from neighbors while still looking great from both sides.
We installed a 6-foot board-on-board cedar fence with a flat cap rail for a clean, finished appearance. Every post is set in concrete at least 24 inches deep to handle the Central Texas soil and weather.
Western Red Cedar is our top recommendation for Zilker homes. It naturally resists rot, insects, and warping without chemical treatments. This fence will age beautifully over time, whether the homeowner chooses to leave it natural or apply a stain.
The Zilker area has unique lot sizes and setback requirements, and our team knows the neighborhood well. We handle everything from initial measurements to final cleanup.
Austin Fence Pros has completed dozens of fence projects in Zilker, Barton Hills, and South Austin. If you're considering a new cedar fence for your Zilker home, we're ready to help.

Pro install, DIY, or somewhere in the middle?

If you're planning a new fence in Austin, you've probably wondered whether to hire a contractor or save money by doing it yourself. There's actually a third option: semi-DIY, where you handle prep work like yard clearing and old fence removal, and a pro handles post setting, alignment, and code compliance.
Our new guide breaks down all three approaches with real cost ranges per linear foot, the tools you'd need to buy or rent, and the 5 most common mistakes Austin homeowners make on DIY fence projects. (Spoiler: clay soil and HOA rules cause most of them.)If you're in Austin, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, Leander, Georgetown, or anywhere in between, give it a read before you commit to a path.

That "I'll fix it next month" fence repair?

It might cost you 5 to 10 times more by the time you actually get to it.
A loose post that's $150 today is $800 in six months. Rot in one wood section becomes a $1,000 panel replacement. A sagging gate eventually pulls a post out of plumb.Fences fail as a connected system. One weak section pulls on the next, and Austin's clay soil and storm cycles do the rest.
Our updated guide breaks down real cost ranges by fence type (wood, vinyl, chain link, wrought iron), the typical timeline of how delays compound, and a seasonal checklist to catch problems early.
Worth a read if you've been putting off a repair this year. https://austinfence.net/real-cost-delaying-fence-repairs-austin/

Is it time to replace your fence, or can you keep repairing it?
If you're patching the same fence every season, leaning posts keep coming back, or you're spotting rot, rust, or termite damage in multiple sections, you're probably past the point where repair makes sense. Our new guide walks you through 9 clear signs you need fence replacement, plus an Austin-specific timing chart for wood, vinyl, chain link, ornamental iron, and composite fences.
We also added a simple repair-vs-replace checklist so you can decide before getting a quote. If you're in Austin, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, Leander, Georgetown, or anywhere in between, give it a read.

Pool fence requirements are stricter than most homeowners realize.

48-inch minimum height (measured outside, not pool side). Self-closing, self-latching gates that swing OUTWARD. Latches at 54+ inches. ≤4-inch picket spacing. ≤2-inch gap under the fence. No climbable horizontal members on the outside.And that's just the code. Insurance carriers often want more: locked gates, alarms, or 60-inch height.
Our new guide walks through Texas pool fence requirements in plain language: what the code actually requires, the materials that work, the most common compliance failures, when permits are needed, and how insurance requirements layer on top.
Required reading if you're planning a pool fence or wondering if your existing one complies.

Is chain link the right fence for your property?

It depends.Chain link gets unfairly dismissed by homeowners who picture industrial lots, then picked too quickly by homeowners chasing the lowest price. Both can lead to regrets.Our new guide breaks down the real pros (affordable, durable, low maintenance, works on slopes, fast install) and the real cons (zero privacy, limited curb appeal, often HOA-restricted, easier to climb than other fences). Then it walks through the genuine use cases where chain link makes sense (back yard dog containment, sports courts, commercial perimeters, acreage) and the situations where it doesn't (front yards, privacy-focused spaces, high-end properties, pool enclosures).Honest take, no upsell.

Pedestrian, driveway, or automatic gate?

A gate is the part of your fence you use every single day, so it's worth understanding the options before you build or replace one. Pedestrian gates handle everyday walk-through access. Driveway gates handle vehicles and need a swing-or-slide decision. Automatic gates add a motor and access controls for convenience and security.

Our new guide breaks down all three gate types, the materials involved (wood, ornamental iron, aluminum, chain link), and the practical questions that point you to the right choice for your property.

Fencing acreage in Buda? It's a different project from a backyard fence. A suburban backyard might need 200 feet of fence. A 10-acre Buda property can need 2,600 feet or more. That scale changes everything: material cost dominates the budget, terrain variation is guaranteed, and the right move is often mixing materials, pipe at the road frontage, and wire on the back perimeter. Our new guide covers ranch and acreage fencing for Buda properties: barbed wire vs woven wire vs hi-tensile vs pipe, how long-run cost works, boundary fencing vs cross-fencing for livestock, the limestone and rock challenges in Buda terrain, and Hays County easement considerations. Useful reading if you've got real land to fence.https://austinfence.net/acreage-ranch-fencing-buda-tx/

Horizontal fences have become one of the most requested styles in the Austin area. Clean lines, a modern look, and the same privacy as a traditional vertical build, just with a different feel.
The key to a horizontal fence that holds up over time is the framing. Standard wood posts can twist and bow as they age, which throws horizontal boards out of alignment and creates gaps. That's why we recommend steel posts for horizontal builds. They stay straight and give the fence a solid backbone that won't shift.
Cedar is the most common material for horizontal fences. It looks great, weathers well, and can be stained or left natural depending on the look you're going for. Boards are typically mounted with small gaps between them to allow for expansion and airflow.
Horizontal fences pair well with modern and contemporary homes, but they also look sharp on older properties when the design is done right. We can match heights, colors, and spacing to fit your property.
These builds do run a bit more than standard vertical fences because the framing is more involved. But the finished product makes a real visual impact, and most homeowners tell us it was worth the upgrade.
If you're in Pflugerville, Round Rock, or the Austin area and want a fence that stands out, we'd love to talk through your options. Free estimates, always.

One of the most common questions we get from homeowners in East Austin is: should I repair my fence or replace it?
Here's the general rule we follow. If the damage is limited to a few pickets, one leaning section, or a gate that won't close right, repair is almost always the better move. You save money and your fence gets more years of life.
If the damage covers more than a third of the fence, if posts are rotting underground, or if the fence is 15+ years old and showing wear everywhere, replacement is usually the smarter investment. Repair costs add up fast when the problems are spread across the whole line.
When we come out for an estimate, we check the entire fence, not just the section you called about. We'll point out anything that could become a bigger issue and give you honest recommendations. No upselling, no pressure.
Common repairs we handle include replacing storm-damaged pickets, resetting posts that have shifted in clay soil, fixing sagging or dragging gates, and reattaching rails that have come loose.
We carry common materials on our trucks, so many repairs can be done the same day.
