Built to Last and Designed for Your Yard

Fence Installation in Plano for homeowners who need a structure that holds up through seasons and storm conditions

Mom's Fence Man installs fences for residential properties in Plano, offering wood, cedar, and wrought iron options built to meet your property's specific layout and goals. You may be working to add privacy along a back property line, contain pets in a side yard, or improve curb appeal along the front setback. Each installation starts with a conversation about what you need, followed by a site visit to measure the slope, check for buried utilities, and mark the post locations that will anchor the structure.


The installation begins with post holes dug to a depth that accounts for soil movement and freeze-thaw cycles common across North Texas. Posts are set in concrete, allowed to cure, and checked for plumb before any rails or pickets are attached. Wood and cedar fences are built with galvanized fasteners to resist rust.

What Happens During Installation and What You'll Notice After

Once the layout is marked and the material is delivered, the crew begins by digging post holes using a gas-powered auger or manual digger depending on soil density and root interference. You'll see the framework go up first, followed by rails, then pickets or fabric sections depending on the fence type. Cedar boards are spaced with a consistent reveal, and top rails are leveled across the run to keep the fence line straight even when the ground slopes.


After the fence is complete, you'll notice clean sight lines, gates that swing without binding, and a structure that doesn't lean or wobble when pressed. The yard becomes more defined, and the boundary feels intentional rather than improvised. Mom's Fence Man sources materials from trusted local suppliers, which means the wood arrives kiln-dried and the hardware is corrosion-resistant from the start.


The installation includes post-hole excavation, concrete setting, rail and picket attachment, gate hardware mounting, and a final walkthrough to check alignment and function. Cleanup of debris is handled before the crew leaves. Staining or sealing is not included unless discussed in advance, and any modifications to accommodate sprinkler heads or landscape lighting are noted during the site visit.

Questions Homeowners Ask About New Fence Installation

These answers cover the details that come up most often during planning and installation in Plano and surrounding areas.

How deep are the posts set for a wood fence?

Posts are typically set 36 plus inches deep depending on fence height and soil type, then surrounded with concrete that cures before rails are attached.

What type of wood holds up best in North Texas heat?

Cedar is a strong choice because it resists warping and insect damage, and it weathers to a natural gray unless sealed with a protective finish.

How long does a full fence installation take?

Most residential projects are completed in one to three days depending on linear footage, terrain, and whether gates are included in the scope.

Can the fence follow a slope without looking uneven?

Yes, the fence can be racked to follow the grade or stepped in sections to maintain a level top rail while accommodating changes in elevation.

Do I need to mark utilities before installation begins?

Absolutely not! When you select Mom's Fence Man for your new fence project, we take care of all the heavy lifting.
