Why Fences Fail

Why Lubbock Fences Fail (and How We Build Ours)

Wind Load

A 6-foot privacy fence acts like a wall in wind, and Lubbock gets strong gusts. Fences blow over when posts are shallow, under-sized or rotted at the ground line. We set posts in concrete at proper depth and spacing and attach rails with brackets rated for the load.

Rot at the Ground

Wood posts and pickets touching soil rot first. We keep pickets off the ground and slope concrete footings to shed water.

Sun and Dry Air

UV turns cedar gray and dries it out, which leads to cracking and warping. A penetrating stain with UV protection slows that process.

Sprinkler Overspray

Spray heads hitting a fence every watering day stain and rot the bottom boards. City of Lubbock code requires spray heads to sit at least 4 inches inside from fencing — we can adjust heads while we're there.

Staining

Fence Staining in Lubbock

Staining protects your fence investment and makes the whole yard look finished.

1

Wait for New Wood

New cedar should dry for several weeks before staining so stain can penetrate.

2

Clean

Wash off dirt and gray fibers from older fences.

3

Protect

Cover plants, grass edges and hardscape.

4

Apply Stain

Spray and back-brush a penetrating, UV-resistant stain.

5

Recoat Schedule

Plan to restain every 2 to 3 years in Lubbock sun.

Popular stain colors: natural cedar, cedar tone, redwood, dark walnut and semi-transparent gray.

Questions

Fence Company Lubbock: Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a new cedar fence cost in Lubbock?
Priced per linear foot and depends on height, style, post type, gates and tear-out of the old fence. Board-on-board costs more than side-by-side. We give free written estimates.
How long does fence installation take?
Most residential fences are installed in 1 to 3 days after materials arrive, depending on length and gates. Concrete footings need time to set before heavy use.
Steel posts or wood posts for a Lubbock fence?
Galvanized steel posts last longer and resist wind and rot better than wood posts set in the ground. Wood posts are cheaper but often rot at the soil line over time.
How often should I stain my fence in Lubbock?
Plan to restain a cedar fence every 2 to 3 years. Sun and dry wind break down stain faster than in milder climates.
Do I need a permit to build a fence in Lubbock?
Requirements depend on fence height, location and zoning, and HOAs often add their own rules. We confirm City and HOA requirements before building.
Can you repair a fence that blew over?
Yes. We reset or replace failed posts, straighten sections and replace broken pickets. If most posts are rotted, replacing the fence line may cost less over time.
Do you offer fence installation in 79416?
Yes. Fence installation, staining and repair are available in 79416 (Northwest Lubbock), 79424, 79423 and every other Lubbock ZIP code listed above, plus Wolfforth, Shallowater and Slaton.
Can you match a new fence section to my existing fence?
We'll match style, height and picket spacing as closely as possible. Wood color will differ until the new section weathers or is stained to match.
Do you install fences for HOAs or shared property lines?
Yes. For shared fences, we recommend both neighbors agree on style and cost before we start.
