Your local fence and outdoor living contractor in Waxahachie
Waxahachie has one of the finest collections of Victorian and gingerbread architecture in Texas, and fencing there is a design decision as much as a practical one. The wrong fence in front of a period home is instantly obvious, and in parts of town it will not pass review either.
We build both sides of Waxahachie. Painted picket and ornamental iron detailed to suit the older streets around the square, and cedar board-on-board privacy fencing for the newer developments spreading out along US-287 and FM 813.
Areas we cover in and around Waxahachie:
Historic downtown square · Ellis County courthouse district · West End historic homes · US-287 corridor · FM 813 · Newer north Waxahachie developments
Local Knowledge
What building in Waxahachie actually involves
Picket that belongs on a period home
Getting picket right on a historic house is about proportion. Picket width, spacing, top profile, rail height and post cap all have to suit the age and scale of the building — a modern dog-ear picket in front of a Victorian looks like a mistake, because it is one.
We reproduce scalloped, arched, spear-top and flat-top profiles, paint to your existing trim, and detail the gates and hardware to match. Where the property sits in a review area, we build to the applicable standard.
- Period-appropriate picket profiles
- Proportioned to the house scale
- Painted to match existing trim
- Built to historic review standards where required
Ornamental iron for front boundaries
Ornamental iron and powder-coated aluminum suit Waxahachie’s older streets particularly well — they define a front boundary without hiding a house that deserves to be seen, and cast finials and scrollwork match the era far better than anything solid.
Aluminum gives you the look with none of the rust and no repainting; welded steel gives you full custom fabrication where the design demands it. We will show you both before you decide.
- Cast finials and decorative scrollwork
- Aluminum or welded steel options
- Arched pedestrian entry gates
- Powder-coat finishes that never need repainting
Decks and pergolas for older homes
Older Waxahachie homes often have generous back yards and no usable outdoor structure at all. A deck with a pergola attached — detailed with the proportions and trim of the house rather than a stock plan — adds real living space without looking bolted on.
We size posts, beams and rafter tails to suit the architecture, and stain everything in one pass so the deck, railing and pergola read as one piece of work.
- Proportions detailed to the house
- Attached pergolas on flashed ledgers
- Deck, railing and structure stained together
- Permitted and inspected properly

Questions
Waxahachie homeowners ask us
Do you build fences for historic homes in Waxahachie?
Yes. We reproduce period picket profiles, spacing and gate details, and we build ornamental iron front boundaries suited to Victorian and early-twentieth-century homes. Where a property falls under historic review, we build to that standard.
Do you serve all of Ellis County?
We do — Waxahachie, Midlothian, Venus, Ennis and the acreage between them. Waxahachie is around thirty minutes from our Alvarado shop.
Can you paint rather than stain a fence?
Yes, and for picket on a period home paint is usually the right choice. We use exterior-grade primer and paint over properly prepared wood, matched to your existing trim colour. Cedar privacy fencing we generally recommend staining rather than painting, since stain penetrates rather than forming a film that eventually peels.
How long does a fence installation take?
A typical residential backyard is two to three days — tear-out and posts, a curing day, then framing and pickets. Custom gates, ironwork, painting and long runs extend that, and you get a scheduled window in writing before we start.
