Kenner's post-war subdivisions sit on flat, well-drained ground near the airport, where every fence design has to stand up to serious wind load. New Orleans Fence Company has been building and repairing fences across Kenner and the surrounding New Orleans area since 2010, and we know what works here.

Whether your wood privacy fence is leaning after a storm, your vinyl panels need replacement, or you're planning a new chain link or ornamental iron installation, our fully insured crews handle the work the same way every time: honest assessment, straightforward pricing, and repair before replacement whenever the fence justifies it.

Fence Installation and Repair in Kenner, 70065

Kenner's flat terrain and exposure to wind mean fence posts have to be set deep and straight, with proper concrete footings and spacing that won't rack or shift under load. We work with wood, vinyl, chain link, aluminum, and ornamental iron, and we understand how each material performs in this environment. Post spacing, rail configuration, and gate hardware all matter when wind is a factor.

Our team has served Kenner homeowners, property managers, and commercial clients since 2010. We're AFA Member Installers (American Fence Association), we carry full general liability and workers' compensation insurance, and we work from a simple principle: get the fence right the first time, and be honest about what needs repair versus replacement.

How Fence Work Happens in Kenner

We start with a free on-site assessment. You describe what you need, we look at the property, measure the fence line, check for utility marks, and talk through material options and cost. Louisiana law requires a utility locate (811) before we dig any post holes, so we coordinate that as part of the job. We'll also confirm any local setback, height, or material rules with the Kenner building department and check HOA restrictions if your property is in a master-planned community.

Once you approve the plan and pricing, our crews show up with the materials and equipment. We set posts in concrete, install rails and pickets or panels, hang gates with proper hardware and hinges, and make sure everything is square, level, and braced. For storm damage repair, we assess what can be salvaged and what needs replacement, and we help you document the damage for insurance purposes.

We clean up as we go and do a final walkthrough with you. Your property is left clean, and the fence is ready to work.

Fence pricing in Kenner depends on material, linear footage, post spacing, gate count, and site conditions. Wood and privacy fence typically runs from $32 per linear foot. Vinyl and PVC start at $42 per foot. Chain link is our most affordable option at $18 per foot. Aluminum and ornamental iron, which stand up well to wind, start at $46 per foot. Gate installation begins at $500, and automatic driveway gates start at $3,100. Storm damage repair starts with a free assessment. Call us at (504) 285-7187 for a free estimate on your specific project, or fill out our online quote request and we'll get back to you within one business day.

Why do so many Kenner fences need repair after a storm?

Wind load on flat ground with shallow root systems and exposed properties means posts that weren't set deep or braced well enough can shift, lean, or fail. Posts set in concrete with proper spacing and anti-sag bracing hold much better. If your fence is leaning or has gaps opening up between boards or panels, call us for an assessment. Often a fence can be straightened and braced without full replacement.

What's the difference between a wood fence set in concrete versus one that's tamped?

Posts set in concrete last much longer in Kenner's climate because the concrete anchors the post below ground and resists frost heave and wind movement. Tamped earth alone won't hold a post steady under wind load or over time. We set posts in concrete, typically 30 inches deep or deeper depending on fence height and material.

Do I need a permit for a fence in Kenner?

Permit requirements vary by jurisdiction in the Greater New Orleans area. Kenner's building department sets local rules on fence height, setback from property lines, and corner visibility. We recommend calling the Kenner building department or checking their website before you start, and we'll confirm permit requirements as part of your free assessment. If your property is in an HOA, you'll also need to verify architectural standards for height, material, and color.

What should I do if my neighbor's tree branches are hanging over my fence line?

Branches that overhang your property belong to your neighbor, and they're responsible for maintaining them. If they're damaging your fence or blocking your view, a conversation is the first step. If the overhang is significant or poses a safety risk, you can ask your neighbor to trim them back to the property line. If that doesn't work, you may need to contact the Kenner building department or an attorney for guidance on your property rights. We can repair fence damage caused by overhanging branches, but we don't trim or remove trees.

How much does it cost to replace a rotted fence post in Kenner?

Post replacement typically starts at $480 per post, depending on depth, concrete removal, and whether we're matching the existing fence material. Rot usually happens at the ground line where moisture collects. If only one or two posts are rotted and the rest of the fence is sound, replacement is a smart repair. If multiple posts are failing, full fence replacement may be the better long-term spend. We'll give you an honest assessment during the free on-site visit.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We carry full general liability and workers' compensation insurance. We can provide a certificate of insurance on request before any work begins.

What does an automatic driveway gate cost, and what's involved in installation?

Automatic driveway gates start at $3,100 and include the gate frame, panels or slats, hinges, gate operator, and controls. Installation involves setting posts in concrete, hanging the gate with proper clearance and swing, and running power to the operator. Site conditions, gate width, and whether you want cantilever or V-track hardware affect the final price. Call us at (504) 285-7187 for a free site quote.
