Fencing in Monroe, Louisiana.

We are based in West Monroe and install on both sides of the Ouachita. Monroe is the larger half of the market and most of what we build there is residential privacy fencing and chain-link.

Wood privacy in pine or cedar, chain-link for containment and larger runs, split rail for pasture and the classic look, decorative and metal where security should not hide the property, and repairs to any of them.

Type of fence, length of the run, and what the ground is doing. Rough numbers are fine on a first call — we work the rest out on site, and walking the line is usually quicker than a long conversation about it.

Most fence decisions get easier once the purpose is named out loud. Privacy points to wood, and height becomes the main variable. Containment over distance points to chain-link, because cost per foot is where it wins. Livestock points to split rail with the rail count set by the animal. Marking a boundary attractively is a different job again and often needs the least fence. The mistakes tend to come from choosing on appearance first and discovering later that the fence does not do the thing it was actually bought for — a four-foot fence that was meant to give privacy, or a decorative run that a horse walks through. Worth settling before material, because material follows from it.
