Overview
Where do you need the most privacy?
A fence can shield a patio from a neighboring window, close off an alley or give a busy backyard a little more separation. Walk the line before choosing a height: the places where people sit, the direction they look and changes in grade all affect how much screening you get.
Board-on-board cedar overlaps the seams between pickets, while side-by-side boards can open gaps as the wood dries. Horizontal wood offers a different look; composite panels reduce the need for staining. Each choice has its own appearance, maintenance needs and price.
Gates and the bottom edge deserve the same attention as the fence panels. We can discuss latch placement, gate width and how to handle uneven ground, along with posts and supports suitable for the fence design.

Fence FAQs
Privacy Fences: common questions.
Answers to help you plan privacy fences in Fort Worth.
More fence questionsWhich privacy fence style gives the most screening?
Overlapping board-on-board pickets cover the seams between boards; solid composite panels are another option. Gates, grade changes and gaps beneath the fence also affect how private the finished line feels.
How tall can my privacy fence be in Fort Worth?
Allowable height depends on the fence location, applicable city rules and any HOA requirements. Verify the current rules for your property before choosing a design.
Will a wood privacy fence have gaps?
Wood moves as moisture changes. Side-by-side pickets can separate as they dry; overlapping boards help cover those seams. Discuss gate edges and the ground line if screening there matters.
What affects the cost of a privacy fence?
Length, height, material, board layout, gates, site access and removal of an old fence all affect the quote. Share the dimensions and the options you want to compare.
Can a new privacy fence replace my existing fence?
Yes. Tell us what is there now and whether the quote should include removal and haul-off. You can keep a similar layout or discuss a different material, height or gate arrangement.
