Project Overview

This cedar fence installation project in Mansfield, TX covered 60 linear feet of new fencing at a 6-foot height, built
in a side-by-side board style. The scope began with full removal and disposal of the existing fence, followed by the
installation of heavy-gauge metal posts set 24 to 30 inches deep in concrete. A new wood-framed gate was also
added, giving the property convenient, secure access along the fence line.
The project was completed on a clear 3-day schedule: demolition and post-setting on day one, full fence
construction on day two, and final assembly and cleanup on day three. Every job also includes free haul-away of
trash and job-site debris, so the homeowner was left with a finished fence and a clean property, with nothing left to
manage on their own.

Materials and Construction Process Behind This Cedar Fence

This cedar fence installation used 1x6, 6-foot cedar pickets arranged side by side, supported by 2x4
pressure-treated rails. Each post is a 13-gauge metal post set in concrete, finished with galvanized metal caps and
Simpson brackets for added structural strength. The new gate matches the fence in height and style, built with a
wood frame, a 3 to 4-foot width, and new hardware for smooth, reliable operation.
As with all A&O Texas Solutions cedar fence projects, the boards receive a stain finish, helping the new cedar
fence resist moisture, sun exposure, and everyday wear from the very first day it goes up.

Why Mansfield, TX Homeowners Choose A&O Texas Solutions for New Fence Installation

Mansfield's hot summers, heavy clay soils, and occasional storms put real demands on any wood fence. A new
cedar fence installation built with concrete-set metal posts and a properly hung gate is designed to stand up to
those conditions far better than an aging, weathered structure.
Homeowners across Mansfield and the surrounding DFW communities choose a full cedar fence installation like
this one when they want to:
• Replace an old, worn, or failing fence with a durable new structure
• Add a new gate for convenient, secure access
• Get long-term stability from concrete-set metal posts instead of wood posts alone
• Protect the wood from day one with a stain finish
• Complete a full fence replacement on a predictable, short timeline
Because cedar is a natural material, some variation in grain and tone is normal, but the combination of
pressure-treated framing, concrete-set posts, and a properly finished gate gives this fence a strong foundation for
years of reliable performance.

Project Timeline and Results

By the end of this cedar fence installation, the homeowner in Mansfield, TX had a brand-new 60-foot, 6-foot-tall
cedar privacy fence with a new gate, backed by A&O Texas Solutions' 2-year labor warranty. The project moved
through demolition, construction, and completion in three organized phases, with free debris haul-away included,
leaving the property clean and the fence ready to enjoy.
This project is a great example of what a full cedar fence installation can deliver: a fresh, durable privacy fence with
functional new access, completed on a clear day-by-day schedule with no surprises along the way.
