Your Katy Fence Installation Crew
JM Painting & Remodeling handles fence installation throughout Katy. Posts set, lines run straight. Every Katy job runs the same way regardless of how large it is: the surface gets prepared before anything is applied, and no step gets skipped at your house because it is hidden once the work is finished.
Our Fence Installation scope in Katy
- Line confirmed and post holes dug to depth
- Posts set in concrete and allowed to cure
- Rails run level, pickets set to a consistent gap
- Gates hung with hardware sized to the leaf weight
Weather sets the rhythm of this work along the Gulf Coast, and Katy is no exception: humidity stretches dry times, summer storms interrupt exterior schedules, and a crew that plans around both finishes on time. Expansive clay soils in this region move posts that were not set deep enough.
Katy is an incorporated city in Harris County covering about 15.0 square miles, home to 26,360 residents (2023 est.), with Cinco Ranch 6 miles out, Brookshire 6.7 miles out, Fulshear 7.3 miles out. We treat it as one stop on a route, not a special trip.
Here is the order of operations in Katy: we look at the work in person, price it in writing, book a start date you agree to, do the job, and walk your Katy project with you at the end. No stage gets skipped and nothing gets added without your say.

What fence installation costs in Katy
The price question deserves a straight answer, so here it is: your Katy number depends on the variables below, we measure them at a free walkthrough, and the quote you get is written with its assumptions listed. No per-square-foot folklore.
- Cedar versus treated pine, and picket style: side-by-side or board-on-board
- Linear feet, height and gate count
- Tear-out and haul-off of the old fence
- Post spec: depth, diameter and concrete, sized for clay soil movement
Why Katy homeowners call JM Painting
Homeowners in Katy mostly hire us twice: once to see if we are who we say we are, and again for everything after. 20+ years in, that is still the model — earn the small job, keep the standards identical on the big one.
Katy runs about 1,756 residents per square mile, so we plan access and staging before the first trailer arrives: driveways stay usable, materials stay on your property, and neighbors are not living with our equipment.
Fence Installation near Katy
Distance is the quiet tax on contractor work, which is why we publish ours: from Katy, Cinco Ranch is 6 miles, Simonton is 11.2, and the rest fall between — Brookshire (6.7 mi), Fulshear (7.3 mi), Pattison (8.4 mi), Weston Lakes (10.7 mi), Simonton (11.2 mi). All of it is regular route territory for us.
Katy Fence Installation FAQs
- Do you serve all of Harris County?
- Yes, Harris County is core coverage for us, Katy included, along with the neighboring counties in the Houston metro. If a project sits outside it, we say so on the first call instead of padding the price.
- Do you take on small fence installation jobs?
- Yes, and we quote them the same way everywhere in Harris County: in writing after a look, so a small job never turns into a surprise invoice.
- Do you cover Katy?
- Katy is home turf: it sits in Harris County, which we cover end to end, so there is no travel surcharge and no long wait for a crew.
- How soon can you start in Katy?
- Call (281) 935-7012 and we will get a walkthrough on the calendar, typically inside the week. Start dates depend on the current schedule and, for exterior work, the weather, and we tell you both straight.
- Do I need a permit for fence installation in Katy?
- It depends on the scope. Purely cosmetic work usually needs no permit, while anything structural, electrical or plumbing-related often does. We check the rules that apply to your address and handle what is required before work begins.
- Can you handle other work while you are here?
- Usually yes. We run painting, exterior repair and carpentry, doors and trim, and remodeling, so related Katy work can go on the same scope instead of a second trip.
- How long will the work take?
- Small Katy jobs can be a day or two; larger scopes run longer. The written quote states the working days we expect and what could change them.
