Privacy Fence Installation in Plano Built for Plano
The privacy fence Plano homeowners ask us for has changed. A 6-foot cedar line used to settle it. Then the lot behind gets a two-story rebuild, the new windows look straight into the yard, and suddenly height and solid construction matter in a way they didn't when the neighborhood went up.
We build privacy the way it actually works: solid pickets with no gaps, a kickboard run tight to the grade so dogs and washed-out soil never open the bottom line, and posts set deep in concrete because Collin County clay leans anything shallow. Cedar is the default and what most Plano yards choose; if staining isn't in your future, we build Trex composite privacy screens too.
First visit is the free on-site assessment: we stand where you stand, work out what's overlooking the yard, and note the HOA rules we've already dealt with in your part of Plano. Your quote comes back fast, and the number we quote is the number you pay.
Privacy Fencing in Plano, Without the Sales Gloss
The height, material and post calls we make on Plano privacy jobs.
- 01Six feet or eight: do the second-story math
- A 6-foot fence gives you privacy from the ground. It does nothing about the two-story house going up behind you, and that sightline is exactly what pushes Plano owners taller. The 8 foot privacy fence Plano yards are stepping up to is a heavier build: deeper posts, stronger rails, more picket, and usually an HOA sign-off, all of which we spec and paper for you.
- 02Post depth is the whole fight in this clay
- Plano's black clay swells wet and bakes tight in August, and shallow posts follow that movement; it's why the old fence leaned. Ours go deep in concrete on a gravel base that drains, deeper again on 8-foot runs, so the line stays straight while the soil moves around it. Texas 811 marks the utilities before any hole is dug.Source: Texas811
- 03Private means built solid, not just tall
- Height alone doesn't make a yard private. Board-on-board overlap keeps the screen solid as the cedar dries, a kickboard closes the gap at the grass line, and cap and trim shed water so the pickets last. All that solid wood also softens street noise, though no fence makes a yard silent and we won't pretend otherwise.
- 04Cedar first, but not cedar always
- Most Plano privacy work is Western Red Cedar because it looks right on these streets and costs the least to put up well. If you never want to maintain a finish, Trex composite gives you the same solid screen on a rinse-with-a-hose plan. We build both and quote the one your yard and your patience actually call for.Compare every privacy fence option

Privacy Fence Installation in Plano in Plano: Questions, Answered
How much does a privacy fence cost in Plano?
The quote follows the yard: footage, height, material and style, the post spec, gate count, terrain, and whether an old fence has to come down first. An 8-foot build asks more of the posts and rails than a 6-foot, and board-on-board uses more picket than side-by-side. We measure everything at your free on-site assessment, your quote comes back fast, and the number we quote is the number you pay.
Can I build an 8-foot privacy fence in Plano?
In many neighborhoods, yes. Most HOAs we build under treat 6-foot as the standard, and more boards now approve 8-foot where second-story windows overlook a yard; front-yard fencing, where it's allowed at all, stays much shorter. We flag what your street allows at the assessment and prepare the drawings the board wants to see.
What actually makes a fence private?
Construction. Board-on-board overlap that stays solid as the cedar dries, a kickboard along the base so the bottom line never opens, tight gate fits, and enough height for the sightline you're blocking. Side-by-side pickets butt tight on day one, then shrinkage draws thin lines between them; that's the honest trade for the lower material count.
My neighbor's new two-story looks into our yard. What do you recommend?
That's the most common privacy call we take in Plano right now. Usually the answer is an 8-foot board-on-board screen on the affected run, and sometimes it's only that run, not the whole yard. We stand in your yard, find the sightline, and spec the height that closes it.
Wood or composite for a Plano privacy fence?
Cedar costs the least going up, looks the most at home on Plano streets, and asks for stain in exchange. Trex composite is the buy-once alternative: a solid no-gap screen you rinse with a hose, and we're certified Trex installers; for owners replacing pine for the second time, it ends the cycle. We'll route you to the right one, even when it isn't wood.
Can you replace just one side of a shared fence?
Yes, and in Plano replacement work it comes up constantly: one line fails before the rest. We confirm the property line before demo starts, because the old fence isn't always sitting where the boundary is, and if a neighbor shares the line we'll help you sort who owns what before anything comes down.
Do you offer a warranty on privacy fence installation in Plano?
Yes. Our workmanship warranty covers privacy fence installation Plano, TX wide, on top of top quality materials. If a post shifts or a gate drops out of level because of how we built it, we come back and fix it, no runaround.
