Some of the most popular pool fence designs include wood privacy, ornamental steel, and vinyl fencing. The right fence style can add even more visual appeal for your property and pool area. You can add even more privacy to your pool fence by integrating shrubs and other plants.

Richard and his crew did an excellent job! Highly recommend them. He helped us figure out the best way to gate the pool and still make it look great!

Amy Hanken

We had the best experience using Sierra Fence. Richard is professional, honest, and very easy to work with. He gave us a recommendation on where to put our fence that was better than what we had originally thought of and less expensive than what our original idea would have cost. We needed our fence to be a pool barrier and he knew exactly what would be needed with our challenging landscape for it to be approved by Lakeway. We are absolutely satisfied with the fence and recommend him to everyone looking for a great fence. Very high quality and zero disappointments, which was so refreshing!

I used Sierra Fence years ago for a neighborhood split rail fence and then when our new dog was jumping our old fence, I called Richard up to install a wrought iron fence. He came out quickly, had several good ideas and gave us the best bid for the job. I would definitely use them again.

Sierra fence is one of the good companies out there. Fair pricing, great work, done in a timely manner. Happy customer.

Professional, efficient, and extremely happy with our new fence! I struggled to get call backs from other companies after a storm took our fence down. But Sierra fencing was quick to call me back ,within an hour of reaching out, came quickly to give me a quote. Got my old fence replaced efficiently and looks amazing! Can’t recommend them enough!

Sierra installed about 2000 of high strength hinged wire ranch fencing for us. The last 900ft was along a difficult rocky cliff. Richard and the crew were timely, knowledgeable and efficient. The results are great.

Richard and his crew built me the most beautiful fence. Their pricing was in line with the handful of other bids we received, and they were quick and responsive to any questions I had along the way. They exceeded my expectations all around.

Sierra did a great job on over 600' of custom fencing for us. We are really happy with it and have received a lot of complements on the project. One of best parts of working with Richard was that he gave us a lot of options and suggestions that resulted in a better looking project than we had originally planned. I recommend you give them a try.

Man did they exceed my expectations by a mile. Our HOA was giving us the HOA Treatment so we had to have a gate put into our fence so we reached out to Sierra Fence to give us a solution. They gave us a very reasonable quote and executed it wonderfully just a week later and we couldn’t be happier with their craftsmanship and work. I highly recommend Sierra Fence for any job big or small.

Sierra Fence did a great job replacing our back fence with a steel frame & welded cattle panel installation. Every aspect of the process was easy, from proposal to completion of work. The installation team was great to work with, too. We couldn't be happier with the work, and their bid was better than all competing proposals, too.

After calling 3-4 fence companies that either never showed up or didn't have the resources to complete the job, I met Christian at Sierra fence and immediately had confidence in his knowledge of fence installation. I hired his company and was shocked to see them install a fence around almost an acre lot in 2.5 days total. They not only worked fast but did an amazing job, were communicative throughout the entire process, and made sure to understand the style and materials I was looking for before getting started. I have received so many compliments on the fence from neighbors! Great job - I can't wait to refer to others!

Kasey Diane

1681082935

Highly recommend Sierra Fence Company! Christian was very responsive and professional. He came out for a final walk through the following day after completion and noticed a deer had plowed into and dented the fence over night. The company replaced the whole panel without hesitation and no addition cost! We love our new fence and the quality of work is excellent. Thank you!

We had a large part of back yard fully fenced to provide a safe area for our new rescue border collie Piper to run free and allow us to BBQ and play in the yard without the worry of the Piper running away after a squirrel!Frank was the designer and he very quickly understood what we were going for and the sort of design we wanted. He was quick to answer my questions and make suggestions when needed. His crew headed up by Jorge did an amazing job. They arrived on time every day and pushed through to finish the job. It was really nice to see how well the crew worked together, which only happens when you have a team in place that has worked together for years.I must admit this project was more expensive than I originally planned for, but I'm so glad I went with Sierra Fence because I am so happy with how it looks and how it functions. I'm quite sure if I had cut corners I would have regretted it. As it is we have enhanced the look of our home and have a perfect back yard for Piper to play.Thank-you guys - a really perfect job.

Great customer service and beautiful work! We love our fence. We had a 7ft, horizontal, cedar wood fence built for privacy. Frank at Sierra is responsive, easy to work with, knowledgeable, and an all around good guy! Our crew was excellent. They helped us through a couple design decisions, and did high quality work. Thank you!

Sierra crushed the copper supply line to our house when installing one of the posts. Not sure how they did not know they did that since the pipe was encased in the concrete footing of the post. When we reached out to Richard, he was quick to dismiss the issue by implying there are other ways the pipe could have been damaged and that unless water is going everywhere they wouldn’t have know if they hit a water line or a tree root. They took no responsibility by saying the contract states they aren’t liable for anything that is not marked. Save yourself the potential headache and go with another company.

Michael Oakes

1653301951

Requested an estimate for repair/ replacement to a damaged metal fence post. I guess the job wasn’t big enough since they never replied. Had I liked their work, I would have hired them to install a much larger fence project. Looks like I’ll go elsewhere.

Sherry Huffman

Our fence turned out amazing! Richard and his crew did an excellent job from start to finish at an affordable price. We had so many questions about what kind of fence to install and where to place it. Richard has an expert's eye and the experience to guide you through the process. He actually came out three times to measure and suggest placement for our fence. We are truly grateful for his guidance with this project. See for yourself, the fence beautifully enhances our property!

Teresa Bush

1647878813

We had a horizontal fence installed, as well as a vehicle gate into the back yard. Our lot has a severe left-to-right slope, but Frank was able to see my vision, and Jorge had the expertise to make it happen. We are so pleased with the final product and quality of workmanship. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was bc of the cleanup afterwards.

Chris Vije

1644498282

Richard was great to work with. Competitively priced but, more importantly, accessible and easy to communicate with regarding the inevitable questions that come up in backyard projects. We expanded our fence out and it matches beautifully with the old fence. install was great and they did not damage any property in the process.

Frank, Samuel, and the crew built us 260 feet of a six foot horizontal cedar board fence with a cap and two gates (a single and a double). They completed the job in three days. It is beautiful!!! This is such a professional team -- they showed up on time, worked steadily and hard for long days, and showed such professional expertise, it was stunning. The technique for building the gates so they are secure was totally cool to watch. We worked hard to be sure that we had cleared the area around the old fence. and when we encountered a few unanticipated adjustments, they responded quickly and gave us time to work out solutions that worked for everyone. When they left, the whole site was beautiful, with all leftover parts and pieces cleaned up perfectly. We were very impressed. Our immediate neighbors hired them to build their front fences and others are all planning to hire Sierra Fence to build their privacy fences as well. Frank was also professional and informative and always quick to respond to questions and offer sound advice.

Great to work with - very responsive and was also patient with a few changes I had to make throughout the process. Overall, the fence looks great and the crew was friendly, fast and didn’t mind my dogs saying hi from time to time. Would do business with again.

We couldn't be more pleased with Frank and his team at Sierra Fence.Our new fence is gorgeous, solid and built perfectly. Frank and his crew were professional, easy to talk to and explained the process in great detail of what to expect from start to finish. All went according to plan and the fence couldn't be more perfect.

We cannot praise Richard, Sierra Fence and the guys enough for the amazing fence that was built for our property. The workmanship is top notch, as are the materials used, done in record time and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. We will definitely be using Sierra Fence in the future as we want to expand on the fence they built. Well done guys!

Having just wrapped up our backyard wood privacy fence replacement project with Sierra Fence, we see now why there are so many positive reviews. Hector was easy to work with, and promptly took care of a minor post-construction loose end. We want to also acknowledge the craftsmanship and hard work of the good-natured installers.

Malcolm Ferrell

Richard with Sierra Fence was great to work with from start to finish and was very patient with our process. The new construction process of our house pushed closing back a few times and Richard was very accommodating on working us into the schedule on the fly so we would have the fence up and running for our dogs right after moving in. Sierra Fence came highly recommended in our neighborhood and we have witnessed first hand why: a beautiful fence that was completed quickly and at competitive pricing. We even made a few tweaks during installation and Richard and his crew were easy to work with on our last minute changes.

Working with Richard (who owns the company) was a joy. He did exactly what we planned, at a reasonable price. He showed up right on time every time and answered emails in a timely manner. He also sent me pictures of different options when I wasn't sure what I wanted but wanted to see possibilities. He spent a lot of time on site making sure the work was done to the highest standard. His employees were hard-working, friendly, and precise. And the final result is beautiful! I would highly recommend Sierra Fence to anyone.

Richard and his team installed 700 feet of fence for us and we couldn't be happier. He was prompt with the proposal, the fence was installed quickly, and it turned out fantastic. We recently got a puppy and he provided recommendations on how best to "puppy" proof the fence. I highly recommend Sierra Fence.

I cannot say enough good things about Richard and his crew. You get what you pay for in this world and Sierra Fence exceeded our expectations with the build, quality and price. The guys removed an old worn out corral board fence and replaced with a 3 rail red cedar fence. My yard is just under an acre and his team had the old one out and new one installed in 2 days. The fence and gates look amazing and will last us a very long time. I had the opportunity to talk with a couple of his guys and it was clear that they took deep pride in their work - something that I know is all too rare. Although they worked quick, the craftsmanship and attention to detail is what really stands out. Five stars.

Richard was the most professional of fence companies we contacted for bids. He and his crew were hard working, delivered a superb product on time, and to exacting specifications. There may be cheaper.but there is not a fence company more ready and able to deliver a superior fence than Sierra. Thank you Richard

Richard and his crew were professional. We received a fair quote for our fence, not an inflated one like the prior quotes we had received. They were able to start the job soon after we signed the contract and finished our fence in 1 day! We highly recommend Sierra Fence.

This company is superb in every way. My situation was rather unique because of the type of entryway fence I wanted. The owner, Richard, came out and as we talked, I knew for certain he was the man for the job. He’s super knowledgeable and considerate and he worked with me every step of the way regarding the design and materials. His price was competitive, and his very courteous crew worked hard and efficiently. I continue to get rave reviews from my neighbors about how beautiful the new entryway fence is. I highly recommend this company. You won’t be disappointed.

I just finished a 6 month building project that took 12 months. I have worked with dozens of contractors during that process and been frustrated more than not.Sierra Fence was a bright spot in this journey. They accommodated a quick install to prepare for a birthday party we were hosting and came back out to help lift a gate after the driveway was installed higher than it was supposed to be. The crew worked super hard and it was amazing to see them work. Very gifted at their trade. I HIGHLY recommend these guys.

We couldn't be more please with Richard and his crews. They were professional and courteous and had our fence up so quick. We love our new fence and we are so grateful we found Sierra Fencing. Very moderately priced by comparison. We would gladly use this service again, or recommend it to our nearest and dearest. Thank You Richard & crew @ Sierra Fencing!

Michael Moser

Richard's work is superb! This guy cares about his companies reputation for doing great work. I dealt with 4 companies... Sierra, Patriot, Austin Bros., and Viking. After getting all 4 quotes I felt most comfortable with Sierra Fence. Richard was the first guy to come out and spent the most time with me, answering all my questions. He had great design ideas that helped me out quite a bit. He actually took me for a ride in his truck to show me some of the jobs he'd done. I ended up getting a higher end fence (3-rail, black steel), just over 600ft. I also had Richard design/build a custom automated steel gate that goes over our driveway, which turned out fantastic! Richard was on site everyday his crew was, which again, assured me how much he cares about his work! His crew is courteous and hard working. Very pleased customer. I highly recommend Sierra Fence.

Sierra Fence installed a beautiful welded pipe fence on our property that has really enhanced our enjoyment of our back yard. The crew was courteous and hard working, staying well after 5 pm on the second day to complete the project. I would recommend Sierra Fence to anyone who needs a fence.

Philip Watts

1523069863

Richard and his crew did a fantastic job on our fence. From his design ideas, to the hard working crew during installation, I can't imagine a better experience. They installed about 1500 feet of wrought-iron style fence, with a few gates, including a custom, motorized, dual driveway gate between two masonry columns. We would highly recommend anyone use Sierra Fence for their project.

I contacted Sierra after seeing the positive reviews online. Richard was extremely responsive when I contacted him about our fencing needs. The topography of our lot posed some interesting challenges. Richard proposed a fencing plan that perfectly met our needs, as well as the city/neighborhood requirements. Richard ensured that the actual installation was initiated immediately upon receiving the necessary city permits. We were nicely surprised with the quality of the work, as well as the speed of the installation. Richard did a great job of communication, and there were no surprises.I would highly recommend Sierra Fence.

Richard and his crew at Sierra Fence were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. They were fast to come out and quote our job and gave us a very reasonable price for the amount of work they did. Richard also worked with our landscape designer throughout the whole backyard process and made sure the fence worked with the overall design in our yard. An additional bonus is that they knew our town's codes which can be tricky and was able to help us navigate those so there were no future issues. We would highly recommend these guys to anyone!
