Montrose is the tightest fence work inside the Loop: 1920s bungalows and new townhomes on narrow lots, a shared line on both sides, and a truck that has to park on the street. Privacy is the whole job here, and a shadowbox or board-on-board run that finishes the same on the neighbor's side is what keeps the peace.
Most of what we build in Montrose is a replacement: a wood fence that went in twenty years ago comes down and leaves on our truck, and a new one goes up the same day.
Montrose is inside the same-day radius
Montrose sits in Harris County, and the crews that fence it run out of 13106 Cullen Blvd, Houston. A salesperson measures every job in your yard first and the crew loads it at ours before the truck leaves, so the truck that turns up in Montrose is carrying the whole job.
Twenty-five to thirty crews out of two Houston yards, more than any other Texas company keeps in one metro, so a crew out sick in Montrose is our problem rather than yours, and the date we give you is the date you get.

Why a fence in Montrose fails, and what we put back
Montrose is deep in the high band of the federal wood-decay index, which is why a pine post at the bottom of a wet Houston yard goes first. The ground is Gulf Coast gumbo clay that swells through a wet spring and shrinks through a dry August, so a post set shallow leans within three years. The weather is a design wind on the order of 130 to 140 miles an hour, a hurricane coast, and the storms that knock fences down across the metro every summer.
Cedar above grade and treated pine in the ground is the Houston build, with fiber cement or vinyl where the yard stays wet. A post in Montrose goes to the depth the ground asks for, not the depth a cheap bid allows, and the frame behind the fence is never lightened to make a number look better. Every job carries a one-year craftsmanship warranty on that work.

Nobody buys more pickets
Nobody buys more fence pickets than Johnson, so nobody in Texas sells you a wood fence for less.
Master Halco named Johnson its largest volume customer in the world, and a picket costs us less than it costs a three-crew shop. That difference goes straight into the quote on a Montrose fence.
Two million feet of fence last year, and the same picket price on every foot of it.
What a new fence costs in Montrose
Angi Houston and HomeBlue put a Houston-area wood privacy fence at $16 to $42 a foot installed, below the national range. That is a standard six-foot fence on flat, clear ground, before tear-out, gates and slope. Mature live oaks on the line, irrigation under it, and a tear-out that has to leave the trees standing are what move a Houston number, and they are all in ours.
Why the Johnson number is the one to get in Montrose
Nobody buys more fence pickets than Johnson, so nobody in Texas sells you a wood fence for less. A salesperson measures the fence line in your yard, so the number is yours and not a guess at it, and it covers the tear-out and the haul-off. A hundred crews put it up on the date we gave you, most of them in a day. One year of craftsmanship on the work, and not one callback on twenty thousand jobs last year.
The rules for a fence in Montrose
Montrose sits inside the City of Houston. Houston asks for a building permit only when a fence stands over eight feet, or for a masonry or concrete fence at any height. An ordinary wood or metal fence of eight feet or under goes in with no permit. Houston has no zoning, so the height rule is the permit rule and the HOA's deed restrictions, which cap most back yards at six feet and the front at four. An association may no longer stop you fencing your perimeter at all, as of September 2025; it can regulate the type and the material and keep a driveway gate ten feet back from a laned road. We check the city and the HOA before a post goes in the ground.

These guys are great 😊 👍 They charged almost $900.00 less than three other companies for the same metal, coating and paint for my black metal fence in Del Webb of The Woodlands…Thanks Matthew.
Rita S., The WoodlandsGoogle review, Houston North office, October 2024 Great work. We had two gates installed in the back yard and all fence posts wrapped in cedar. Turned out amazing. Great communication and pricing was fair. I’d use Johnson Services Company again.
Travis H.Google review, Houston North office, August 2025 Options were presented to work within our budget. Supervisor confirmed timeline, crew arrived promptly, confirmed work scope, worked efficiently and left the property clean.

Common questions about a fence in Montrose
How fast can you quote a fence in Montrose?
The same day, almost every time. A salesperson from the Houston yard measures the fence line in your yard, names the picket grade, and the number comes back in writing before the week is out. The estimate is free and there is nothing to sign.
How soon can a crew start in Montrose?
About four days after you sign the quote, on a typical job. Twenty-five to thirty crews out of two Houston yards, more than any other Texas company keeps in one metro means one is free when you are, and the crew that comes to Montrose loads every material at the yard before the truck leaves.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Montrose?
Houston asks for a building permit only when a fence stands over eight feet, or for a masonry or concrete fence at any height. An ordinary wood or metal fence of eight feet or under goes in with no permit. Your HOA can still cap the height or set which side the finished face goes on, and we check both before a post goes in the ground.
Do you haul the old fence away in Montrose?
Yes, all of it. The old panels, the old posts and the concrete they sat in leave with the crew the same day. Tear-out and haul-off are in the one price, never a line added to your bill afterward.
What does the warranty cover on a Montrose fence?
Every job carries a one-year craftsmanship warranty. It covers our work, how the posts sit, how the frame hangs, how the gates swing and latch, and across more than 20,000 jobs last year not one customer needed to use it. Materials carry whatever their maker puts on them.
