Travis and Hays Counties

Choosing a Fence Company in Austin, TX

Around Austin, a fence project can mean a cedar privacy fence behind a city home, an ornamental metal fence along a front yard, or a gated entrance on a few acres in western Travis County or Hays County. The right choice depends on the lot, the city rules and how the fence will be used. A fence that keeps a dog in, a gate that lets a trailer through and an opener that works from the car each call for different materials and hardware.

Fence installation in wood, metal and security styles for homes and businesses.

Custom driveway gates and entryways sized for the drive and the vehicles that use it.

Gate opener installation, with motors, keypads and remote access.

Land clearing of brush, cedar and debris before fencing or building.

Ranch fencing for livestock on acreage at the edges of the metro.

City Rules

Austin Fence Permits, Heights and Corner Lots

The City of Austin requires a permit for a residential fence that is more than 7 feet high at any point, or more than 6 feet high along a public right of way other than an alley. Any fence inside a floodplain needs a permit regardless of its height.

The city treats an ornamental fence, one with an open design and no more than 20 percent solid material, differently from a solid fence: the height limits for other fence types do not apply to it. On a corner lot, a solid fence needs approval from Austin Transportation and Public Works so it does not block drivers' view of traffic.

These rules shape the design before anything is built. As a fence contractor in Austin, TX, we go over height, style and placement with you at the estimate, and we recommend confirming current requirements with the city, since its rules are updated from time to time.

Hill Country, Prairie and Oaks Around Austin

Austin sits on the Balcones Escarpment, a fault zone that runs through the western half of the city. West of it are the rocky slopes and woodlands of the Hill Country; to the east lies the Blackland Prairie, where the clay soil swells when wet and cracks as it dries. Post holes on the west side often meet limestone, while posts on the east side need depth and solid concrete to stay straight in moving clay. A single fence line can cross both kinds of ground on some properties, so the post plan changes along the run.

Where live oaks and red oaks grow, the Texas A&M Forest Service advises avoiding pruning or wounding oaks from February through June, when sap beetles spread oak wilt. Land clearing in Austin, TX near oaks is planned with that window in mind, and any fresh oak wound is painted right away.

Lakeway, Buda, Kyle and San Marcos

The towns around Austin each bring their own ground and their own kind of property, and a good plan starts with knowing which one you are in. Hills, river bottoms and prairie each change how posts are set and gates are hung.

Lakeway

Lakeway sits beside Lake Travis in western Travis County, a city that grew from a 1960s resort and incorporated in 1974. As a fence contractor in Lakeway, TX, we plan for hillside lots, views worth keeping open and gates on sloped drives.

Buda and Kyle

Buda and Kyle sit along Interstate 35 in Hays County, south of Austin. A fence company in Buda, TX or Kyle builds for neighborhood lots and for acreage nearby, where the Blanco River and Plum Creek drain the land around Kyle.

San Marcos

The San Marcos River rises from the Edwards Aquifer at San Marcos Springs, in the city that is home to Texas State University. As a fence contractor in San Marcos, we build fences and gates for homes, rentals and rural property around town.

One Locally Owned Crew for Austin Area Projects

C2 Premier Services is locally owned and operated, based in Burnet, and built on a simple idea: reliability is the foundation of every project. Our team arrives prepared, works efficiently and follows through on the details, from the first estimate to the final walkthrough.

Hiring a fence contractor in Austin, TX who also clears land and installs openers keeps the whole job under one plan. On properties around Austin, that often means one crew clearing the fence line, setting posts for the ground, building the fence, hanging the gate and installing the opener. Owners skip the work of coordinating several contractors, and the project moves with fewer delays.

The goal is a fence or gate built right the first time. Materials and methods are chosen to keep performing for years after the crew leaves.

Austin Area Fencing Questions

Do I need a permit for a fence in Austin?

Inside the City of Austin, a residential fence needs a permit if it is more than 7 feet high at any point, more than 6 feet high along a public right of way other than an alley, or located in a floodplain. Solid fences on corner lots also need approval from Austin Transportation and Public Works. Rules change, so confirm the current requirements with the city before building.

Is an ornamental metal fence treated differently in Austin?

Yes. Austin defines an ornamental fence as one with an open design and no more than 20 percent solid material, and the height limits for other fence types do not apply to it. That makes ornamental metal a practical choice where a taller fence is wanted without blocking light or views. Floodplain and right of way rules still apply, so location matters.

When should trees near live oaks be cleared around Austin?

The Texas A&M Forest Service advises avoiding pruning or wounding oaks from February through June, when sap beetles carry the oak wilt fungus to fresh wounds. Clearing brush or cedar close to live oaks is best scheduled outside that window when possible. Any oak wound that does happen should be painted right away to reduce the risk of infection.

Do you build fences on sloped lots in Lakeway?

Yes. Lakeway sits beside Lake Travis, west of the Balcones Escarpment in Hill Country terrain, where a lot seldom sits flat. We step or rake the fence to follow the grade, plan post spacing around rock, and place gates where the ground lets them swing and close cleanly. Call (512) 715-2706 to describe your lot.
