Johnson Fence is the pick for Arlington, TX homeowners who want a fence done right, on time and without surprises, with over 100 crews in the field so one missed crew never stops a job. Zero craftsmanship warranty callbacks across 20,000-plus jobs a year back it up.
Arlington homeowners know how a fence job goes wrong: the fence that failed too soon, the quote that left out the grade, the crew that never came back. Each one can be checked before you sign anything.
Johnson Fence is Arlington’s best pick for a fence done right
Johnson Fence has over 100 crews in the field, an A+ BBB rating held since 2003, and zero craftsmanship warranty callbacks across 20,000-plus jobs last year. Our Fort Worth yard serves Arlington, so the crews, the quote and the date all come from your own metro.
Then look at what buyers of other Texas fences describe. A 1-star Google review of Southland Fence & Supply from September 25, 2026 reads: “They stole my money. Paid them a deposit and I never heard back from them. They asked that I pay with a check and not a credit card. Now I see why. Do not do business with them. I just saw that they lost their BBB accreditation.”
That is a deposit paid and nothing built. Before you pay anyone, check the BBB standing and ask what the quote says in writing. Ours carries an A+ rating, and BBB accreditation has been ours since March 2003.
What does a wood fence cost in Arlington, TX?
A 6-foot wood privacy fence costs $25 to $50 per linear foot installed, according to HomeGuide’s 2026 national figure. For pressure-treated pine in Texas, MeasureFence puts the installed price at $25 to $41 per linear foot (MeasureFence, 2026).
Those are market ranges from two publishers, and they stop at the edge of your yard. Your number comes from the footage measured on site and the picket grade you choose, #1 through #3. We have no fixed published price list. Every project gets a custom quote after a free on-site estimate, and a salesperson meets you there, measures the linear footage and confirms the fence type and grade.
The old fence matters too. Tear-out and haul-off are included in our price, so the number you compare is the number you pay. When another quote leaves the old fence out, add that cost before you compare.
How can an Arlington fence company promise a start date and keep it?
A company keeps a date when one missed crew cannot stop a job, and with over 100 crews in the field that is our position. From 2002 to 2019 Johnson was the top choice for regional and national homebuilders in Houston, and we ran more like a logistics-management company than a typical fence contractor.
Homebuilders taught us why dates matter. The backyard fence is the last trade on site before a home can close, so a late fence holds up a sale. What set us apart was measuring every job in advance, standing behind everything we built, and running multiple crews for reliability.
David S. gave five stars on Google in October 2026: “Fantastic experience! Excellent communication. Worked closely with Chance on several jobs. Always on time, crews do great work. 10/10!”
What workmanship warranty should an Arlington fence company give?
Ask for a workmanship warranty in writing, and ask what it covers and when it starts. Ours is one year and covers craftsmanship only, not materials. It runs a year from the walkthrough with the foreman.
A short warranty is only worth reading next to the record behind it. Across 20,000-plus jobs last year, we had zero craftsmanship warranty callbacks. That is history, not a promise about the next job. The warranty is one year, and the record says it did not get used.
When two companies quote the same fence, put their warranty terms next to each other. Look at the length, what it covers and the day it starts. A warranty that says nothing on those three points is the one to question.
What post depth and picket grade should an Arlington fence quote list?
A good quote names the picket grade, the footage and the post depth, in writing. Ours names the picket grade, #1 through #3, on the quote. Wood is graded from #1 picket through #3 picket and priced accordingly, so the grade is the line that explains the price.
That is how we write it up. A salesperson meets you on site, measures the linear footage and confirms the fence type and the grade. Pricing is per linear foot, set by that footage and the grade you choose.
Ask every company you call to put the post depth and concrete spec on paper as well. A quote that skips the grade or the post depth cannot be compared with one that lists them, and the missing line is usually the cheaper one.
Can one fence company build your fence, gate and deck in Arlington, TX?
Yes. One accountable partner serves the whole property here: fencing, gates, decks, landscaping and masonry, from one backyard to an entire Texas development. Decks, gazebos and trellises are residential work, while concrete fences and custom stone columns are commercial-only.
The path is the same for each. You request a free on-site estimate and consultation, and our team designs, installs and reviews the project. The published process has three steps: FREE Estimate and Consultation, Custom Design and Installation, and Final Review and Satisfaction.
Every project is priced by custom quote after that free on-site estimate.
Which Texas fence builder has the crews to start on your date?
Texas Fence publishes over 20 crews, working the Houston metro and surrounding areas. It has been in business since 2003, with more than 30,000 fences built and 30 full-time staff.
Those are Texas Fence’s own published facts, and they describe a Houston contractor. Its published markets are the Houston metro and its surrounding areas, so a homeowner in Arlington is reading a record from another part of the state.
A 2-star Google review of Texas Fence from May 19, 2026 reads: “our gates have continued to fall apart. Even the ones we don’t use. They have come to repair them twice already and need to come a third and we’ve only had the fence for a couple of months. They haven’t given us an answer as to why this is happening.”
Crew count and market decide whether a date holds. Ask any builder how many crews it has and whether they work out of your metro.
