ain’t nothin’ worse than a busted-up fence when you got kids runnin’ round or nosy neighbors peekin’. i remember my cousin jake’s place out by NW 8th Ave—his old wood fence was leanin’ like it just gave up on life. dog kept escapin’. neighbor’s cats struttin’ in like they owned the place. he finally called TJ Fence Company and boom—problem fixed. strong new vinyl fence, gate don’t sag, peace returned.
if you need a fence in gainesville, like real bad or just sorta thinkin’ about it, we’re the ones folks call. we’re right over at 2020 W University Ave, Gainesville, FL 32603, close to UF campus and just a hop from midtown. local folks, real tools, no nonsense. just fences that stay put.
startin’ from scratch? we gotchu.
our fence installation crew don’t mess around. we bring all the stuff, dig straight holes (not crooked ones like my neighbor tried), and build it solid. Gainesville soil can be tricky—full of sand, roots, and weird stuff—but we know how to handle it.
we been installin’ fences out by Butler Plaza, off Newberry Rd, and all through East Gainesville too.
we ain’t fancy. we just show up, measure right, and get the thing built. fast. no weird upsells or “hidden fees.” just a strong fence and a handshake.
you ever see a fence flappin’ in the wind like it’s tryna leave town? yeah… that ain’t good.
storms hit hard out here. between hurricane leftovers and those random summer gusts, fences take a beatin’. and when they do, call us. TJ Fence Company does fence repair all over Gainesville—like over in Springtree, Pine Hill Estates, and even them older spots off Waldo Rd.
sometimes it’s a busted post. other times it’s boards missin’ like teeth. either way, we fix it. don’t need a whole new fence? great. we’ll just patch her up.
we don’t try to sell ya stuff you don’t need. pinky swear.
sometimes the fence is just plain done.
if it’s fallin’ apart, warpin’, or leanin’ worse than a Gator fan after game day drinks, it’s probly time for a new one. we rip it out, haul it away, and build somethin’ new right where it stood.
lotta older homes in Gainesville got those ancient wood fences from like the 90s. we done full replacements all over Duckpond and Porters—they look brand new now.
you want wood again? cool. wanna switch to vinyl or metal? we can do that too.
people say replacin’ a fence is a pain. not with us. we make it easy. we talk like humans. we show up on time. we don’t ghost ya.
TJ Fence Company ain’t here to sweet talk ya or throw buzzwords. we just build good fences.
if you want somethin’ solid, straight, and done right the first time, call (352) 670-3908 or swing by 2020 W University Ave, Gainesville, FL 32603 and say hey.
depends what you want. most folks in gainesville spend anywhere from $2,000 to $6,000 for a normal backyard fence. small yard? could be cheaper. wanna go fancy with metal or big gates? gonna be more.
wood’s usually mid-range. vinyl’s more. chain link’s cheaper.
best way? call us at (352) 670-3908 and we’ll swing by your yard and give ya a real number. no guessin’.
probably chain link or split rail wood.
you ain’t gettin’ privacy with that, but it works if you just need to keep stuff in (or out). also—DIY is cheaper if you got the time, tools, and don’t mind diggin’ holes all day in the heat.
but honestly? we’ve fixed a lotta DIY jobs that went sideways. sometimes cheap ends up costin’ more.
round here? probly pressure-treated wood.
looks good, works good, not crazy expensive. folks love it in neighborhoods like Haile and Duckpond.
some go with vinyl if they don’t wanna mess with paint or rot later. both are solid. just depends on your taste (and your wallet).
plain ol’ chain link is usually the cheapest.
not pretty, but it keeps stuff in. good for side yards, rentals, dog runs, or if you just don’t care what it looks like.
we install a lotta chain link out by Eastside and off Archer Rd—folks just need it done.
it ain’t free, that’s for sure.
but it also ain’t as bad as people think.
again—depends on yard size, material, and layout. a basic wood fence for a regular Gainesville yard? maybe $3,000-ish give or take.
metal or custom stuff? that’s where it gets pricey. wanna save some? keep it simple. skip the extras.
uh… probably hedges or just yellin’ at people to stay off your lawn.
real talk though—no fence is cheaper. but if you need privacy or safety, even a basic fence is better than nothin’.
you could try pallets or wire mesh, but honestly, they usually look rough and don’t last.
pre-made wood panels are probly the easiest for DIY folks.
just dig holes, drop the posts, screw in the panels. bam.
but if you’re hirin’ pros (like us), we make it easy no matter what. chain link’s pretty quick. so’s vinyl. we done full installs in one day sometimes, dependin’ on the yard.
few ways:
we always tell folks: if budget’s tight, just say so. we’ll help ya figure somethin’ that works.
vinyl or metal (like aluminum or steel).
they don’t rot, don’t rust (if installed right), and don’t need paintin’.
we got vinyl fences we installed near Newberry 10+ years ago that still look fresh.
wood lasts too—but ya gotta take care of it. stain it, seal it, fix boards when needed.
oooh good one.
vertical is classic. stronger, easier, cheaper.
horizontal looks modern. lil’ more spendy, sometimes sags if not built right.
we do both. if you want sleek and fancy, go horizontal.
wanna save some bucks and keep it simple? go vertical.
depends on the vibe you want for the yard.
