Your Local Fence Company in Manor, TX
Austin Fence Pros installs and repairs fences throughout Manor, TX, from Old Town Manor to the master-planned communities along US-290 in the 78653 zip code. We build wood, cedar, iron, chain link, and privacy fences for Manor’s HOA neighborhoods and rural acreage.
Manor has grown up fast, and its fences show it. One street has a farmhouse near the old town center, and the next has a brand-new build in a master-planned community that needs everything from scratch. We’re a fully insured, veteran-owned fence company that’s worked this side of the metro for years, so we know the HOA design rules, the builder schedules, and the clay soil that come with fencing out here. Whether you just closed on a home in ShadowGlen or you’re on acreage outside the city limits, you can book your free estimate and we’ll walk the property with you.

Fence Services We Offer
One project manager stays on your job from the first measurement through the final walkthrough, handling materials, scheduling, and any HOA paperwork. On most homes here, owners choose stained cedar fencing or wood privacy panels that clear HOA rules and hold up under the Texas sun.
Why Local Fence Knowledge Matters in Manor
Manor sits in northeast Travis County along US-290, about a dozen miles east of downtown Austin. Once a small farming town, it’s become one of the fastest-growing communities in Central Texas, driven by the Tesla Gigafactory and the tech employers clustered nearby. That growth shapes fence work here, and three local factors drive every job.
First, HOA approval sets the timeline. The master-planned communities, ShadowGlen, Whisper Valley, Lagos, Carillon, and Mustang Valley, each set their own rules on fence height, picket spacing, post style, and stain color. We’ve built across all of them and know what gets approved without back-and-forth, and our permit partners handle the submittals.
Second, new-construction timing matters. With hundreds of homes closing here every year, fence work usually has to fit a builder’s schedule. We plan around your closing date so the fence goes in soon after move-in, not weeks later.
Third, the ground is expansive clay. This is the same black clay that runs under most of the metro, and posts set too shallow lean within a couple of seasons. We set deeper, add gravel for drainage, and adjust our approach to keep a fence straight in this soil.
For front yards and larger custom homes, decorative iron fencing adds security and curb appeal, while galvanized chain link fencing is the practical pick for acreage, dog runs, and work yards outside the master-planned communities.
On the bigger lots common past the city limits, we handle automatic gate installation with keypad, remote, or app access. For the retail centers and industrial sites along US-290 and SH-130, we take on commercial perimeter fencing too, and can phase the work to keep a business running.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work as a fence company in Manor?
Yes. We’re a full-service fence company covering all of Manor, from Old Town and Presidential Meadows to ShadowGlen, Whisper Valley, and the rural acreage outside the city. We install and repair wood, cedar, iron, chain link, and privacy fences, and we handle the HOA and permit paperwork that comes with building here.
Do I need HOA approval or a city permit for a fence in Manor?
Often both. In the master-planned communities, HOA approval is the main requirement and usually takes one to three weeks. Inside the city, fences over six feet and some front-yard or corner-lot fences need a permit, while properties in the ETJ follow Travis County rules. Our fence permitting guide covers the basics, the City of Manor Building Permits page has the official rules, and our permit partners handle whichever submittals your property needs.
Can you coordinate my fence with a new-home closing?
Yes, it’s one of our most common requests here. With so many homes closing in ShadowGlen, Whisper Valley, and Lagos, we’ll suggest booking the consultation a few weeks before closing so we can walk the lot, confirm HOA rules, and stage materials. That way the fence goes in soon after you move in, and we coordinate with the builder when needed.
What fence material holds up best in the soil and climate here?
It depends on your priorities. Vinyl and composite shrug off the heat without warping, cedar looks natural and lasts when it’s refreshed with a wood stain service every couple of years, and wrought iron holds up for decades. Because of the clay, proper post depth matters as much as the material, so we don’t cut corners on the install.
How long does a fence project take here?
Most residential installs finish in two to four days once approvals are in hand. In the master-planned communities, HOA review usually adds one to three weeks up front, so plan on two to five weeks from estimate to finished fence. Rural properties without an HOA can move faster, and we’ll give you a clear timeline at the estimate.
Can you repair a fence instead of replacing the whole thing?
Often, yes. If a storm took out a few panels or a gate is sagging, our fence repair crew can reset posts, rehang gates, and swap failing sections rather than rebuilding the whole run. We’ll tell you honestly when a repair makes sense and when age or rot means replacement is the better spend.
Call (512) 354-7670 or request your free estimate online, and we’ll walk your property, HOA rules and clay included, and give you a straight answer. As a fence contractor throughout the Austin metro, we know the area, but Manor’s home turf.
