Cedar Park sits on Blackland clay east of the escarpment, where two decades of suburban growth have filled the landscape with single-family homes on regular lots and master-planned communities governed by HOA standards. Your fence is one of the most visible and vulnerable parts of your property, and the clay soil that defines Cedar Park is the reason why.
Austin Fence Contractors has served Cedar Park and the surrounding Austin area since 2015. We know the soil here: it swells and shrinks with every wet and dry cycle, heaving fence posts out of the ground and racking panels until a fence that looked solid five years ago is visibly leaning. We install, repair, and restore wood privacy fences, vinyl, chain link, ornamental metal, and gates. We work from existing surveys, coordinate with HOAs, and propose repair before replacement whenever the fence justifies it. Call us at (737) 237-0592 for a free on-site estimate.
Fencing in Cedar Park (78613)
Cedar Park homeowners live on expansive clay soil that is the defining fact of every fence job in this area. Clay swells when wet and shrinks when dry, and that movement heaves fence posts up and racks panels until they no longer hang plumb. Almost every leaning fence we see is a post problem, not a panel problem. Posts set in concrete without proper depth, posts tamped but not set, and posts that were sound ten years ago but have rotted at the ground line from humidity and moisture all lead to the same visible failure: a fence that leans, sags, or pulls away from its neighbors.
Wood privacy fences dominate Cedar Park lots because they offer privacy on regular suburban lots and fit the aesthetic of the neighborhoods here. Vinyl and PVC fencing avoid the staining and maintenance of cedar, but cost more upfront. Chain link works where budget is tight or where transparency matters. Ornamental iron and aluminum suit the front-yard appearance standards of many HOAs in Cedar Park's master-planned communities. We have installed and repaired fences in every material and every neighborhood in the 78613 ZIP code since 2015. Our crews are fully insured, and we are members of the American Fence Association.

How a Fence Job Works in Cedar Park
We start with a free on-site assessment. You describe what you need, we walk the fence line, measure, note the soil and post condition, check for utility lines (Texas law requires a utility locate before we dig), and review any HOA architectural standards or city setback and height rules that apply to your property. We give you an honest estimate and a clear timeline.
When you hire us, we handle the work. For a new wood or vinyl fence, we set posts in concrete at proper depth and spacing, hang stringers level, and install pickets or panels plumb. For a leaning fence, we often pull and reset the posts that have heaved or rotted, leaving sound panels in place. For a gate, we hang it square, adjust hinges, and test the swing and latch. We coordinate with your HOA if one exists and verify compliance with Cedar Park setback and height rules before we finish.
We clean up as we go and leave your property ready. You walk the fence line with us at the end, and if anything needs adjustment, we make it right on the spot.
Pricing for fence work in Cedar Park depends on material, linear footage, post condition, and soil access.

Ornamental iron and aluminum run from $48 per foot. Post repair and replacement, which is the most common job we do here because of the clay soil, starts at $480 per post. A full fence replacement on a typical Cedar Park lot runs from $2,700 depending on length and material. Gates start at $525 for a simple swing gate and run higher for automatic driveway gates.
