Fence Installation: Rice-Military, Harris County
the Rice-Military area of Houston sits inside Harris County, and the housing stock changes street to street. We set the fence installation scope after looking at your house rather than off a price sheet, because Deed restrictions and HOA fence specs vary street by street here, and we build to the one that applies.
Our Fence Installation scope in Rice-Military
- Rails run level, pickets set to a consistent gap
- Gates hung with hardware sized to the leaf weight
- Line confirmed and post holes dug to depth
- Posts set in concrete and allowed to cure
Weather sets the rhythm of this work along the Gulf Coast, and Rice-Military 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.
A fence installation job in Rice-Military starts with a free walkthrough, moves to a written scope you approve, then the work itself, then a punch walk with you before we call it finished.

What fence installation costs in Rice-Military
If three Harris County contractors quote your fence installation and the numbers are far apart, these variables are almost always why. Knowing them helps you compare quotes like a pro — including ours.
- Post spec: depth, diameter and concrete, sized for clay soil movement
- Tear-out and haul-off of the old fence
- Cedar versus treated pine, and picket style: side-by-side or board-on-board
- Steel posts versus wood posts: the upgrade that outlasts the pickets

Touch-ups and callbacks are where distance shows. Harris County is a standing route for our crews, so coming back to Rice-Military to make something right is a detour, not a lost day, and it actually happens.
Rice-Military Fence Installation FAQs
- Do you serve all of Harris County?
- Yes, Harris County is core coverage for us, Rice-Military 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.
- Are you licensed and insured?
- Licensed & Insured, with documentation available up front. Ask when we come out to Rice-Military for the walkthrough and we will bring it.
- 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 Rice-Military work can go on the same scope instead of a second trip.
- Do you take on small fence installation jobs?
- Yes. No minimum theatrics: if the Rice-Military job is worth doing, it is worth doing right, and it gets the same written scope as a full remodel.
- Do you cover Rice-Military?
- Rice-Military 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 Rice-Military?
- 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.
- How long will the work take?
- Honest answer: we tell you after we see it, in writing, as a working-day range for your Rice-Military home. What we never do is promise a date to win the job and slide it later.
Two ways to start: call (281) 935-7012 and talk it through, or send the form with photos of your Rice-Military project and get a ballpark before we even visit.
