Choose from our beautiful wood fence designs for the perfect fence solution in Bastrop
Get the ultimate standard in residential privacy fencing with our basic privacy style. You can find this design installed all across backyards in Bastrop and the surrounding areas because of its simply beautiful appearance. Basic privacy wood fences are the most budget-friendly option for full privacy coverage, creating solid panels with each picket right next to each other leaving no gaps.
Another great way to get full privacy from your Bastrop County fence is with the addition of the board-on-board wood fencing style. This style is built by overlapping each picket directly on each other in a distinct, alternating pattern. Not only does this create a beautiful look, but it ensures over time your fence won't leave any gaps between boards as it ages. The optional top cap adds another dimension of style, too!
Do you want privacy, but would like your fence to have some visibility and spacing? A shadowbox wood fence is the answer for you! Similar to board on board, shadowbox wood fences have overlapping pickets, however each picket is attached by alternating boards on opposite sides of the horizontal rails. This gives the illusion of full privacy, but allows air and some visibility at an angle between the pickets. Many people prefer shadowbox due to its "finished" look on both sides of the fence.
Split rail fencing is a classic and rustic option for creating boundaries on your Bastrop County property. With its natural and timeless appeal, split rail fencing adds a charming touch to any landscape. Perfect for defining property lines or enclosing pastures, this type of fencing is durable, low maintenance, and blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings. Choose split rail fencing for a traditional and attractive solution.
Wood post and rail fencing, also called a 3-rail fence, offers a timeless and rustic look to any Bastrop County property. With its sturdy construction and classic design, it provides a traditional boundary that enhances the aesthetic appeal of your outdoor space. Ideal for marking property lines, wood post and rail fencing is a versatile and cost-effective option for all properties.

Strong Wood Posts
There is no way to stress enough the importance of strong posts that are properly installed for the strength and life of your wood fence!
When properly installed by our expert fence team, our wood fence posts will stand strong and last for years. Quality matters! Our wood fences are built and expertly installed to look great and to stand the test of time! It all starts with a strong fence post!
All of our wood fence posts, rails, and pickets are expertly chosen and installed, to maximize the life of your wood fence in Bastrop County.
Strong Wood Rails
Did you know that there are different grades and types of wood? Our professional-grade wood rails are what separates us from many of our competitors. Our rails are of a higher grade than other options we see across the Bastrop County region. This is an important difference, because the horizontal rails fail frequently on lower-quality wood fences. We see it all the time!
People sitting on the top of the fence, climbing the fence, leaning heavy objects against the fence, or branches falling onto the top of the fence can all easily damage a low-quality wood fence rail! Rot, splitting, and warping are all much more likely and much more severe with lower quality wood materials. Our wood fences are built to last and a key reason our wood fences last so long and look like new is because of the higher quality wood fencing materials we install for our residential and our commercial clients.
All of our wood fence posts, rails, and pickets are expertly chosen and installed, to maximize the life of your wood fence in Bastrop County.
High-Quality Wood Pickets
Just like our posts and our rails, we install high-quality wood fence pickets. The thicker, wider, and higher-density wood cost a little more than the cheap wood sold at big box stores; however, wood fences across Bastrop County take a lot of abuse and our high-quality pickets are proven to be more resilient! For wood fences that last and look great, high-quality wood pickets are a must!
All of our wood fence posts, rails, and pickets are expertly chosen and installed, to maximize the life of your wood fence in Bastrop County.
The process of building a fence is quick, but can still take several weeks to complete a project. If you need an instant fence for your dog, Butler Contracting will install a temporary dog fence until we are able to build your perfect permanent pet fence!
There are far too many advantages of wood fencing to mention, but here are a few that are key to those considering a wood fence around their Bastrop County property.
We only use high-quality treated pine or cedar for our wood fences for ensured durability and strength. Cedar wood is naturally resistant to rot and insect damage, giving it a longer lifespan than other wood fences. Our skilled installation team is fully trained in the most effective and efficient methods to ensure that your wood fence will last for years to come.
Embrace the timeless appeal of wood fencing, exuding a natural charm that effortlessly complements any environment. Whether you opt for an open picket design or a tall privacy style, the undeniable quality of the wood will radiate, creating a stunning border for your home that enhances curb appeal and adds a touch of beauty to your surroundings.
Experience the enduring beauty of an expertly installed and well-maintained wood fence that will border your property for years to come, standing strong against the demanding climate of Central Texas.

Experience unrivaled durability and elegance with PostMaster
We've recently completed the installation of an impressive 240-foot wooden privacy fence, featuring state-of-the-art PostMaster Posts. These remarkable posts come with an impressive 15-year warranty and are designed to withstand winds of up to 75 mph, equivalent to a tropical hurricane. What sets them apart is their clever concealment - attaching a picket on the backside hides them, seamlessly blending them with the rest of the wood.

At Butler Contracting, we've got your wood fence covered with PostMaster Posts made of durable steel. Say goodbye to the worry of underground rot and decay that is common with traditional wood posts.

Butler Contracting is proud to provide a workmanship warranty on all wood fences that we build for our clients, however, there is no additional manufacturer warranty on wood fences due to their tendency to rot, split, or warp over time.
Wood fencing is a popular option for homes and businesses in the Bastrop County region. A properly built wood fence is strong enough to stand-up to the harsh weather conditions of Bastrop County.
Properly maintained, wood fences last years and look great in Bastrop County.
Wood fences typically have no warranty on materials but do have a workmanship warranty.
However, there are certain options you can choose that do come with warranties, even on the materials! Speak with one of our fence experts to learn the specific details of the wood fence options that you are considering.
Whether you need a residential wood fence or a commercial-grade wood fence, it generally only takes a few days maximum for one of our fence experts to get to most areas of Bastrop County to walk your property and give you a detailed estimate of your entire wood fence project.
You can certainly call us to get even faster answers from our fence experts!
Once you approve the estimate, we can often install wood fences in most of Bastrop County within 1 to 3 weeks, but please check with our office of your specific project. There are times throughout the year where that timeframe may be less, or it may be longer.
There are other things that can delay the start of a fencing project. If you select a specific type of wood, or post options or decorative options that need to be special ordered, that will often delay the installation of your fence. We will help you to identify, in advance, any of your choices that are known to be likely to cause these additional delays, and we will offer alternatives whenever possible.

Fence placement is ultimately the responsibility of you, the customer. Moving a fence after it's already been installed can be costly, so it's never a bad idea to get a survey to be safe. In many cases, the property lines are clear and well-marked and installing your fence can be done without an official survey. However, some municipalities do require it, so be sure to check!
There are many small fence companies in Bastrop County that install wood fencing. Very few of them specifically train their teams on the best installation techniques and practices for designing, building, and installing wood fencing. Unfortunately, this means that your wood fence is almost certainly not installed as securely as it could be, which ultimately can reduce the quality and lifespan of your fence.
Be sure to choose a reliable fence company that has been around. Here are some of the most common pitfalls of using an unreliable, unlicensed, or uninsured wood fencing contractor:
The Wood Fence Warranty is Void
If the company that installed your wood fence isn't still in business down the road, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, even if you do choose the few wood fence products and options that do come with material warranties, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly, which is fairly common.
The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long
As a professional fencing contractor, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. We are dedicated to improving our knowledge and skills of the best fencing materials and the best fence installation techniques for wood fencing in order to maximize the strength and life of your fence. Companies that simply install fences as something they do "on the side" usually have no idea how much they actually don't know about wood fencing or what is best for you and your property.
Putting Your Property at Risk
Installing wood fences in the Bastrop County area is actually somewhat risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the installation of a fence can blow materials, damaging your business or customer's cars. We've seen concrete splatter up onto cars or drip down long stretches of walkways and driveways as wet concrete or other materials are transported. The secondary damage to businesses or your customers' vehicles while installing fences by poorly trained labor is a very common thing.
Additionally, anyone hurt on your property while they are working puts you at risk! If you hire an unqualified fencing contractor, you may be liable.
At first glance, hiring a "cheaper" fence company to install your wood fence may appear to save you a few dollars, but in the long run it is almost certainly a price that you simply cannot afford to pay!
