Fence Building

Fence building and installation in Lubbock, TX. Cedar privacy fences and custom gates.

Lofton Construction builds wood and cedar privacy fences across Lubbock for homeowners who want a clean layout, custom gates, and a structure that holds up in West Texas conditions, from initial install through optional staining and finishing.

Overview

New fence construction with the finish details in mind

A fence changes both function and curb appeal. The layout, gate placement, board style, and finish all need to work with the property, not feel like an afterthought. Cedar is the most common choice in Lubbock for its durability and how well it takes a stain finish.

Whether it's a straightforward backyard privacy fence or a more customized build with gates and a stain plan, the work is scoped around what the property actually needs. Fence repair is also available for existing structures that need boards, rails, or posts addressed before a full replacement makes sense.

Process

What the fence building process looks like

Step 1

Property walk-through and scope review

The layout, tie-ins, gate needs, and site access are reviewed so the build fits how the property is actually used.

Step 2

Material and design planning

Board style, height, structural details, and finish direction are aligned before installation begins.

Step 3

Installation and gate build-out

Posts, rails, pickets, and gates are installed with a focus on straight lines, smooth operation, and a consistent finished look.

Step 4

Cleanup and finish recommendations

After the build, the property is cleaned up and next steps for staining or sealing are reviewed if the fence will be finished.

Value

Where a custom fence adds value

  • Improves privacy, security, and curb appeal for Lubbock backyards and perimeter lots
  • Cedar fence builds pair naturally with a stain finish after installation for long-term protection
  • Custom gate layouts designed for how the property is actually accessed and used daily
  • Replacement fence work available when repair and refinishing are no longer the right value

Questions

Common questions about fence building

Do you build gates as part of the fence project?

Yes. Gate layout and sizing are part of the planning conversation so the finished fence works for day-to-day access instead of adding that later as an afterthought.

Can a new fence be stained after it is built?

Yes. Many fence builds are paired with a follow-up staining plan once the wood is ready, which helps protect the investment and complete the look.

Do you handle replacement fences in older Lubbock neighborhoods?

Yes. Replacement work is a common request, especially where an older fence has reached the point that repair and refinishing are no longer the best value.

Do you build cedar fences in Lubbock?

Yes. Cedar is the most common material for privacy fences in Lubbock because it holds up well in West Texas conditions and takes a stain finish cleanly. Most residential builds use cedar for both the pickets and framing.

Do you do fence repair or only new fence installation?

Both. Some projects start with a repair assessment covering damaged boards, resetting posts, or fixing gates, rather than a full replacement. If the structure is still sound, targeted repairs can extend the fence life significantly.
