What happens during a residential fence install

The work begins with marking post locations and digging holes to the depth required for your soil type and fence height in Thibodaux and surrounding cities. Posts are set in concrete or gravel depending on material and terrain, then leveled and braced while they cure. Rails and panels or pickets are attached once the posts are secure, and gates are hung with hinges and latches that align properly.

When the installation is finished, you will see clean lines, even spacing, and a fence that stands plumb along its entire run. Gates swing smoothly without dragging, and every section is anchored to handle wind and weight. The yard is cleared of debris, and any displaced soil is smoothed back into place.

Materials are chosen based on what you need the fence to do: block sight lines, contain animals, define property edges, or add curb appeal. Height, spacing, and gate placement are all planned around how you move through the yard and where access points make the most sense. The result is fencing that works with your property instead of just sitting on it.

Questions homeowners often ask before we start

These are the questions that come up most often when homeowners in Thibodaux and surrounding parishes are planning a new fence installation.

What type of fence material lasts the longest?
Vinyl and aluminum both resist rot, rust, and insect damage, which makes them last decades with little maintenance. Wood fences can also last many years if the lumber is pressure-treated and properly sealed.
How deep do fence posts need to be set?
Posts are typically set one-third of their above-ground height into the ground, which usually means two to three feet deep depending on your fence height. Deeper holes are used in loose or sandy soil to keep posts stable.
When should I replace a fence instead of repairing it?
If more than a third of the posts are rotted or leaning, or if multiple panels are sagging or broken, replacement is usually more practical than patching. A full replacement also gives you the chance to update the style or material.
How long does a residential fence installation take?

Most residential installs in Thibodaux and surrounding cities take one to three days depending on the length of the run, terrain, and whether gates or corners add complexity. Weather and ground conditions can extend the timeline slightly.

What happens if my property line is unclear?
You should have your property surveyed or review your plat before installation begins. Installing a fence on the wrong side of the line can lead to disputes or require costly removal and reinstallation.
