Services
Fencing
We design and install custom fencing solutions using cedar, cypress, steel, and vinyl materials. Our fences provide security, privacy, and aesthetic enhancement while meeting local building codes. Clients benefit from durable installations that withstand Texas weather conditions and increase property value through tailored designs.
Automated Gates
Our automated gate systems combine security and convenience with options for driveway, commercial, and pool area installations. Featuring remote operation, keypad entry, and integration with security systems, these gates use commercial-grade hardware for reliable performance in residential and business settings.
Decks
We construct durable decks using pressure-treated pine, cedar, and composite materials. Our designs incorporate seating, lighting, and shade structures to create functional outdoor entertainment spaces. Projects include rooftop decks, multi-level installations, and poolside enhancements with proper drainage and safety features.
Retaining Walls
Our retaining walls solve slope stability issues while enhancing landscape aesthetics. Constructed from concrete blocks, stone, or timber, these structures prevent soil erosion and create usable flat areas for patios or gardens with proper drainage integration.
Pergolas
Custom pergolas provide shaded outdoor spaces using cedar, redwood, or steel materials. Designed to complement existing architecture, these structures feature open lattice roofs for sunlight control and can integrate lighting, fans, or climbing plants for enhanced functionality.

Questions
What materials do you recommend for long-lasting fences?
We recommend cedar, cypress, and steel for their durability. Cedar naturally resists decay, cypress contains insect-repelling properties, and steel offers unmatched security with proper powder coating.
Do you handle fence repairs and maintenance?
Yes, we provide comprehensive repair services including gate automation fixes, rust removal, and structural reinforcement. Our team also offers staining and sealing to extend fence lifespan.
Can you match existing fence designs?
We specialize in replicating existing styles while upgrading materials. Our team can match wood types, metalwork patterns, and staining to ensure seamless integration with your current property aesthetics.
What's involved in automated gate installation?
Our process includes site assessment, motor selection based on gate size, electrical wiring, and safety feature installation. We use commercial-grade operators with battery backup options for uninterrupted functionality.
How do you handle challenging terrain?
We custom-design fences to follow contours, install stepped sections for grade changes, and use reinforced posts for stability on slopes or uneven ground while maintaining visual appeal.
Do you offer design consultations?
Yes, we provide free on-site consultations to discuss your needs, show material samples, and create customized plans that balance security requirements with aesthetic preferences.
