Create your own private backyard oasis in Roanoke with a professionally installed cedar privacy fence. 6-foot and 8-foot options for complete seclusion.
About This Service
Your backyard should be your personal sanctuary — a private retreat where you can relax, entertain, and enjoy your outdoor space without feeling like you are on display for the entire neighborhood. In Roanoke's growing suburban landscape, where homes are built closer together and neighborhoods are more densely populated than ever, a professionally installed privacy fence is essential for creating the secluded outdoor living space you deserve. Roanoke Fence specializes in premium cedar privacy fence installation throughout Roanoke and the DFW metroplex, building beautiful, solid fences that block views, reduce noise, and define your property boundaries with craftsmanship that stands the test of time.
Privacy fencing is, by far, the most popular fence style in Roanoke and across the DFW area — and the demand continues to grow as more homeowners recognize the value of a well-built privacy fence. Beyond the obvious benefit of visual seclusion, a quality privacy fence serves multiple important functions: it creates a safe, enclosed space for children and pets to play, it defines your property lines clearly and prevents neighbor disputes, it blocks wind and provides some sound reduction from adjacent streets and neighbors, it deters casual intruders and adds a layer of home security, and it significantly increases your property value and curb appeal. A privacy fence is not just a fence — it is a lifestyle upgrade that transforms how you use and enjoy your Roanoke property's outdoor space. Imagine hosting backyard barbecues, letting the kids play freely, or simply reading a book on the patio without worrying about passersby or prying eyes.
Roanoke Fence offers several privacy fence styles to match your Roanoke home's architecture and your personal aesthetic preferences. Our most popular option is the classic side-by-side privacy fence, featuring tightly butted cedar pickets that provide complete visual obstruction. For a more upscale look, our board-on-board (also called shadowbox) style uses overlapping pickets that provide privacy from every angle while creating an attractive dimensional pattern that looks equally finished from both sides — making it ideal for shared fence lines between Roanoke neighbors. Our cap-and-trim privacy fence adds horizontal trim boards along the top and bottom of each section with a finished cap rail, creating a custom, furniture-grade appearance that elevates your property's exterior. For maximum privacy and security, we offer 8-foot tall privacy fences where local codes and HOA rules permit, providing an extra level of seclusion that standard 6-foot fences cannot match.
Every privacy fence we install in Roanoke is built with premium Western Red Cedar — the only wood we recommend for privacy fencing in North Texas. Cedar's natural resistance to rot, insects, and warping makes it the ideal material for the solid, dense construction that privacy fencing requires. We set heavy-duty posts in concrete at precise 8-foot intervals, install three horizontal rails per section for maximum structural support, and attach pickets with galvanized ring-shank nails that hold tight even as wood expands and contracts with Roanoke's seasonal temperature swings. The result is a privacy fence that stays straight, solid, and rattle-free through decades of wind, rain, and sun. We back every privacy fence with our comprehensive workmanship warranty and stand ready to service any issue — because we know your family's privacy and security depend on the fence we build.
Why Choose Us
Here's why Roanoke homeowners trust Roanoke Fence for their Privacy Fencing needs.
Our privacy fences feature tightly butted cedar pickets that block 100% of visibility. Board-on-board styles provide complete privacy from every angle — no gaps, no peek-through points. Your Roanoke backyard becomes truly private.
Standard 6-foot privacy fences handle most needs. For maximum seclusion, security, and wind protection, we offer 8-foot tall privacy fences where Roanoke codes and HOA rules permit. The extra height makes a dramatic difference.
Solid privacy fences provide measurable noise reduction from adjacent streets, neighbors, and commercial areas. Properties in Roanoke near busy roads or commercial zones benefit significantly from the sound-dampening effect of a solid cedar fence.
A solid privacy fence creates a fully enclosed yard where children and pets can play safely. No gaps, no visibility to the street, and no escape routes. Roanoke families with dogs especially appreciate the peace of mind a privacy fence provides.
Roanoke's notorious North Texas wind is significantly reduced by a solid privacy fence. Your patio furniture stays put, outdoor dining becomes more pleasant, and landscape plants are shielded from wind damage and desiccation.
Privacy fences are the most desired fence type among homebuyers in Roanoke. A professionally installed cedar privacy fence typically adds $8,000-$20,000 to your home's market value — far exceeding the cost of installation.
Our Work
How It Works
We visit your Roanoke property, walk the fence line, identify the areas where privacy matters most, and discuss height, style, and gate placement. We verify property lines and check local height restrictions and HOA requirements.
We present privacy fence options — side-by-side, board-on-board, cap-and-trim — with clear pricing for each style. We help you choose the design that provides the privacy you want while fitting your Roanoke property's aesthetic and budget.
Posts are set in concrete at 8-foot intervals, three rails per section are installed for maximum rigidity, and premium cedar pickets are attached with galvanized ring-shank nails. String lines ensure perfectly straight fence lines across your property.
Gates are built to match the privacy fence style with anti-sag construction and secure latching. We perform a complete quality inspection, verify privacy from key vantage points, and walk you through maintenance recommendations.
Privacy fence installation in Roanoke typically costs $25-$50 per linear foot for a 6-foot cedar privacy fence. Side-by-side style runs $25-$35/LF, board-on-board $30-$40/LF, and cap-and-trim $35-$50/LF. An 8-foot privacy fence adds $8-$15 per linear foot over the 6-foot price. A typical 200 linear foot residential privacy fence costs $5,000-$10,000. Call 682-688-4239 for your free estimate.
Most Roanoke and DFW municipalities allow 6-foot fences in rear and side yards and 4-foot fences in front yards without a variance. Some cities allow 8-foot fences in rear yards with a permit. HOAs may have their own height restrictions. We research your specific Roanoke regulations and HOA rules before installation to ensure full compliance.
Side-by-side (also called dog-ear) features pickets placed edge-to-edge with no overlap — complete privacy from one side, with visible rails on the other. Board-on-board overlaps pickets on alternating sides of the rail, creating a dimensional shadow effect that provides complete privacy AND looks finished from both sides. Board-on-board costs 15-25% more but is ideal for shared Roanoke fence lines.
A properly installed and maintained cedar privacy fence in Roanoke lasts 15-25 years. Regular staining every 2-3 years extends life significantly. Cedar's natural rot and insect resistance make it far more durable than pine in North Texas conditions. Posts — the most vulnerable component — can last 20+ years when set in concrete and properly sealed.
In most cases, no — you can build a fence on your own property without your neighbor's permission. However, fence placement must be entirely within your property line. We recommend discussing fence plans with adjacent neighbors as a courtesy, especially for shared-line board-on-board fences where the cost is sometimes split. We can help navigate these conversations.
