Fences
We design and install custom fences using premium materials like steel, wood, and wrought iron. Our solutions prioritize security, durability, and aesthetic appeal while meeting local code requirements. Clients receive tailored designs for residential privacy, commercial security, or industrial applications.
Gates
Our automated and manual gate systems combine functionality with security. We specialize in driveway gates, entry gates, and industrial track systems. Installations include modern features like keypad access, remote controls, and integration with existing security infrastructure.
Decks
We construct low-maintenance decks using composite and pressure-treated materials. Our designs enhance outdoor living spaces with features like pergolas, lighting, and seamless transitions to pool areas. All projects emphasize structural integrity and long-term durability.
Retaining Walls
Our retaining walls provide erosion control and property boundary reinforcement. We use interlocking concrete blocks and natural stone to create functional yet decorative structures that withstand Texas weather conditions while improving landscape aesthetics.
Outdoor Kitchens
We build custom outdoor kitchens with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and weather-resistant cabinetry. These spaces integrate with patios and decks to create durable, stylish entertainment areas tailored to client preferences.

Report
In short I would highly recommend Robert O’Neal and 78 Fence to anyone who needs one built or repaired. He did what he said he would do, when he said he would, for the price he agreed to. This is what you would expect of any responsible contractor and that he is. Beyond that, of the many companies I contacted for my project he was the only one… who truly listened to my specific project needs. Through that communication I was able to get the fence I wanted, not just what I thought I would have to settle for at a price I could afford. He was on site to check on job progress and support

This is the second time we've used 78 Fence. The first time was several years ago to do a cedar fence and large decorative iron driveway gate at our house. We have been absolutely delighted with the handsome look and security of the gate. So many cheap gates can be pulled open enough for someone to slip through but you can't move our gate more than an inch and it has been essentially trouble free.
This time we had Robert (the owner) do 6' cedar exterior and interior fences at a duplex we own. They used larger metal posts set more deeply in the ground than the fence we were replacing and it's much
