Fence Company in Mercedes, TX

Fencing in Mercedes

Mercedes is a smaller city along Interstate 2 between Weslaco and Harlingen, with a historic downtown, established neighborhoods and a lot of farmland around it. Fence jobs here often involve bigger lots than in the larger Valley cities, and a good share of rural and agricultural fencing.

Popular fence projects in Mercedes

• Wood privacy fences for backyards in town
• Ranch, pipe and field fence for rural properties, pasture and livestock
• Steel fences and entry gates for homes on larger lots
• Chain link for dogs and storage areas
• Repairs on older fences around downtown and the established neighborhoods

Local landmarks

Mercedes is home to the Rio Grande Valley Premium Outlets along the expressway and the Rio Grande Valley Livestock Show grounds, which hosts one of the area's biggest yearly events. Properties near the livestock show grounds and the surrounding farmland often need sturdy fencing for animals and equipment.

Fencing larger lots

On a bigger lot, plan the layout before you get quotes. Many owners use wood privacy or steel near the house, where looks matter, and switch to chain link or ranch fence along the back and sides. Gates should be wide enough for the vehicles and equipment you'll actually use. A survey to confirm property corners is worth it on any rural tract.

Storms and soil

The mid-Valley gets the same summer storms and tropical gusts as the rest of the region, and clay soil can loosen posts over time. Deep, concreted posts and steel posts where possible help a fence stay straight.

Keeping livestock in

If the fence is for animals, tell the builder what you're keeping. Goats and sheep need tight woven wire, horses need a no-climb fence or pipe rails, and cattle can be held with barbed wire or pipe and cable. The right fence for the animal saves you from chasing them down the road later.

Quotes are free and you're never obligated to book.
