At Legendary Fence Company Broken Arrow, our wood fences are planned for real life in Broken Arrow, not just for brochure photos. That means we think about your specific soil, your backyard slope, your pets, and the kind of Oklahoma wind and sunshine your fence will face.
We start every wood fence project with an on-site visit. We walk the full fence line with you, look for drainage issues, old concrete, tree roots, and sprinkler lines, and measure actual slopes instead of guessing from a map. We also talk through privacy needs, where you want gates, and how you use your yard, like kids play areas or boat storage.
Because conditions in Broken Arrow can jump from heavy rain to intense sun in the same week, we recommend materials and construction details that hold up here long term. That includes deeper posts where soils are softer, hardware that resists rust, and wood species that take stain well and do not warp as easily in fast temperature swings.
Wood fences can look very different from one yard to the next, and our job is to match the style to both your home and our local climate. The most common choice in Broken Arrow is a 6-foot privacy fence using cedar pickets on steel or wood posts. Cedar is popular here because it handles moisture changes better, resists insects naturally, and is lighter than many other woods, which reduces sagging over time.
We also install board-on-board designs for neighbors who want complete privacy with no small gaps as the boards dry, which is helpful when homes are close together. For front yards and corner lots, many homeowners choose a shorter 4-foot picket or ranch-style fence that keeps kids and pets in while still looking open and friendly. If you are close to a busy road, we can add a rot board along the bottom to keep the pickets off the soil and to better handle weed trimmers.
Material choices include cedar pickets, treated pine framework, and options for steel posts or heavy treated 4x4 wood posts. The post type matters a lot in Broken Arrow, where clay soil can move and high winds are common. We will show you real samples so you can see grain, color, and thickness before you decide, instead of picking from a photo.
Once you approve the design and materials, Legendary Fence Company Broken Arrow handles the entire installation process in clear steps so there are no surprises.
Layout and utilities: We mark the fence line with string, confirm corners and property lines based on your survey if available, and call in utility locates. In many Broken Arrow neighborhoods, gas and cable lines run close to property lines, so we never dig until utilities are clearly marked.
Post holes and setting: We dig post holes to a depth that accounts for local frost depth and our wind exposure, typically 24 to 30 inches deep for a 6-foot fence, sometimes deeper in softer soil. We use concrete around each post, tamped and crowned at the top to shed water away from the post. On sloped yards we step or rack the fence so you do not end up with big gaps under panels.
Framing and pickets: After the concrete sets properly, we install the rails, then attach pickets one at a time, checking level and alignment frequently so the top line is smooth. For privacy fences we can install pickets tight together or in a board-on-board staggered pattern. We leave a small gap above grade to reduce rot and to keep soil and mulch off the bottom of the wood.
Gates and hardware: Gates are reinforced with diagonal bracing to prevent sagging. We use heavy-duty hinges and latches that can handle Oklahoma wind and frequent use. Before we leave, we adjust every gate so it opens and closes easily and clears concrete and grass properly.
Many homeowners want to know why two fences that look similar can have different prices. The cost of a wood fence in Broken Arrow is usually driven by a few specific factors that we explain up front.
Length, height, and layout: More linear feet and taller fences require more materials and labor. Lots with several corners, curves, or multiple gates take more time than a simple rectangle. If your property line has thick brush, old chain link, or concrete that must be removed, that will also affect cost.
Material choices: Cedar costs more than treated pine, but it typically lasts longer and looks better, especially when stained. Steel posts are more expensive than wood posts, but they resist rot and wind damage much better. Upgraded hardware, decorative tops, and custom gate frames also add to the budget.
Site conditions: Hard or rocky soil, heavy roots, and poor access for materials can add labor. In some older Broken Arrow neighborhoods we run into buried concrete or metal from previous fences, which we will discuss with you if we find it. We always provide a written estimate that separates materials and labor so you know what you are paying for.
Before we set a single post, Legendary Fence Company Broken Arrow helps you think through the practical details that can cause problems later if they are ignored.
Property lines: We recommend you locate your survey or get one if there is any doubt about the exact line, especially if your fence will sit close to a neighbor's existing fence or structure. Building on the wrong side of a line can create long term issues, particularly when homes change owners.
City rules and HOA guidelines: Some areas of Broken Arrow and nearby Tulsa County have height limits or have rules about fencing near front yards and driveways for visibility. Many HOAs also have specific rules about wood fence style, color, and whether the posts must face inward. We can review these with you and build to match the guidelines so you do not face a violation notice.
Neighbor coordination: If you are replacing a shared fence, we can provide separate quotes for each side so neighbors can decide how to share costs. We can also schedule work to keep both properties accessible during installation, and we clean up debris from both yards, not just the one that hired us.
The timing of your wood fence installation and how you care for it afterward both have a big impact on how long it will look good in Broken Arrow weather.
Best seasons to install: We install year round, but many homeowners prefer spring and fall when the ground is not rock hard and the temperatures are reasonable. In the hottest part of summer, concrete can cure faster, so we adjust our mix and scheduling so posts set correctly. In wet periods we watch the forecast closely and may schedule post setting around heavy rains to avoid waterlogged holes.
Staining and sealing: In our climate, unstained wood will weather to gray and can crack faster. We usually recommend staining once the wood has dried enough to accept finish, often several weeks after installation, depending on the season and humidity. We can provide stain-ready construction, with smooth facing and spacing that allows even coverage.
Ongoing care: Every year or two, a quick rinse, hardware check, and spot treatment where sprinklers hit the fence will extend its life. We also repair storm damage, leaning sections, and gate sag on existing wood fences, even if we did not install them initially.
Picking a wood fence contractor is not just about the first price you see. You are trusting someone to put a long, heavy structure along your property line that should last a decade or more in Oklahoma conditions.
Legendary Fence Company Broken Arrow is locally based, so we see how our older fences hold up after real wind storms, hail, and years of sun. We take those lessons into every new installation, from the way we set posts to the hardware we choose and the way we plan water runoff. That long view matters more than shaving a few dollars off the estimate with thinner boards or shallow post holes.
We keep communication simple. You get a written proposal that explains the wood species, post type, hardware, and layout. During the job we keep you updated on schedule, especially if weather is changing our plan for digging or concrete. When we finish, we walk the fence line with you, check gates together, and note any small adjustments you would like.
If you are considering a new wood fence in Broken Arrow or replacing an aging one, we are happy to start with a straightforward conversation on-site. You will get specific recommendations for your yard, not a generic one-size-fits-all package.
