Overview
Real privacy comes from the details, not just the height.
A privacy fence has one job: block the view. Height matters, but the details decide whether you actually get privacy. Side-by-side boards open small gaps as the wood dries. Gates leave daylight at the edges. A fence that steps down a slope can leave an opening at the bottom. We plan for all three.
For most Fort Worth backyards that means board-on-board construction, where overlapping boards cover every seam, or a horizontal design with tight joints. If you would rather never stain again, a low-maintenance privacy system gives the same solid screen. Then we set the height your HOA and the city allow and plan gates and slope transitions so the screening is continuous.
Privacy fences catch more wind than open fences, so posts, footings and rails matter even more. Long, exposed runs and taller fences get the structure they need to stay straight through spring storms.

Local know-how
Privacy in Fort Worth neighborhoods.
Two-story neighbors, alley-loaded lots and backyard pools make privacy one of the most common fence requests across Fort Worth.
Many HOAs cap fence height and specify the finished side and stain color, so we check your guidelines before the layout is final.

Fence FAQs
Privacy Fences: your questions, answered.
What Fort Worth property owners ask about privacy fences.
More fence questionsWhat is the best privacy fence for a Fort Worth backyard?
For most yards, a board-on-board cedar fence offers the best balance of privacy, looks and price. Horizontal wood suits modern homes, and a low-maintenance privacy system is worth it if you never want to stain. Your HOA rules, budget and appetite for upkeep decide the rest.
How tall can a privacy fence be in Fort Worth?
It depends on the property, the fence location and any HOA rules. Many backyard privacy fences are 6 or 8 feet tall. Check current City of Fort Worth guidance and your HOA guidelines before choosing a height.
Does a board-on-board fence really have no gaps?
Board-on-board overlaps each seam, so shrinking boards do not open see-through gaps the way a side-by-side fence can. Gates and the bottom edge still need careful planning for continuous privacy.
How much does a privacy fence cost in Fort Worth?
Privacy fences are priced per linear foot. Material, height, board-on-board versus side-by-side, gates, tear-out and slopes set the total. A written quote lists each item so you can compare.
Can you replace my old privacy fence?
Yes. The old fence is torn out and hauled off, the line is checked and the new fence is built in your chosen style and height. Our fence replacement page explains what is involved.
