Thibodaux sits in the heart of sugar cane country, where the historic bayou-town blocks and older residential streets define the character of Lafourche Parish. Wood privacy fencing is the expected look here, and it takes real craft to keep it standing straight and sound in this climate.

New Orleans Fence Company has served Thibodaux and the surrounding areas since 2010. We install and repair wood privacy fences, vinyl, chain link, ornamental metal, and gates. When your fence needs work, we show up with the same crew, honest assessment, and the skill to tell you whether repair makes sense or replacement is the better spend.

Fence Service in Thibodaux (70310)

Thibodaux homeowners know their fences. The older neighborhoods along the bayou and throughout the parish rely on wood privacy fencing to define property lines and screen yards from the street. That fencing endures moisture, wind, and the wear that comes with time. We understand what holds and what fails. Posts set in concrete shift and lean. Boards warp, rot at the ground line, or split. Rails sag. Gates drag or come off their hinges. We repair all of it, or we replace it honestly when repair won't last.

Our team has installed and restored fences across New Orleans and Thibodaux since 2010. We work with pressure-treated pine, cedar, vinyl PVC, chain link, and ornamental iron. We know the local building department rules, we call for utility locates before we dig, and we coordinate with HOAs when deed restrictions govern fence height, setback, or material. We are fully insured.

How a Fence Job Works in Thibodaux

You call us at (504) 285-7187 or request a free on-site assessment. We come out, look at what you have, measure the run, check sight lines and setbacks against your deed and local code, and talk through your options. We ask about your budget and what look you want. We give you an honest estimate with no surprise.

If it's repair, we diagnose the problem: a leaning post, a rotted board, a gate hinge worn out. We tell you what it costs to fix and how long the repair will hold. If the fence is old or too far gone, we explain why replacement makes better sense. If you're building new, we stake the line, call for 811 utility locates (required by law before we dig), set posts in concrete at proper spacing, and install boards or panels straight and level. We work board-on-board for privacy, side-by-side for a cleaner look, or racked installation on sloped ground. We cap and trim every fence so water sheds and joints stay tight.

When the work is done, we haul debris, sweep up, and walk the fence line with you. You see a finished job, not a construction site.

Pricing for fence work in Thibodaux depends on what you need. Wood privacy fencing runs from $32 per linear foot for installation. Vinyl or PVC is from $42 per foot. Chain link starts at $18 per foot. Ornamental iron or aluminum runs from $46 per foot. Repair work starts at $475 for basic jobs like hinge replacement or board repair. Fence post repair or replacement runs from $480. Gate installation or repair starts at $500. If you need a full fence replacement or removal, we quote the whole project. Storm damage assessment is free, and we help document damage for your insurance claim. The best way to get an accurate price for your property is a free on-site estimate. Call us at (504) 285-7187 with details about the fence run, the material you want, and any site challenges. We'll give you a real number, not a guess.

What's the difference between a post set in concrete and a tamped post, and which is better for Thibodaux?

A post set in concrete is anchored in a hole filled with concrete mix, which locks it in place and resists heave and settling. A tamped post sits in a hole with soil packed tight around it. Concrete-set posts hold better long-term, especially in wet ground or where frost heave is a concern. We set posts in concrete for all new fence work in Thibodaux because it gives you a fence that stays plumb and doesn't lean over time.

A storm knocked down a section of my fence. Do I need a permit to rebuild, and how do I start?

Storm damage repair rules vary by location within the parish. Some areas require a permit even for repair, others don't. Call the Thibodaux or Lafourche Parish building department to confirm what applies to your property. We can help document the damage for your insurance claim. Once you know the permit requirement, call us at (504) 285-7187 with photos or details, and we'll give you a repair estimate and timeline. We schedule storm work promptly.

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

Post replacement runs from $480, but the final cost depends on how many posts need work, the depth they're set, whether we can reuse the existing boards, and site access. If only one or two posts are bad and the boards are sound, replacement is straightforward and affordable. If rot has spread to multiple posts or the boards themselves are compromised, we'll recommend a larger repair or a full section replacement. Get a free estimate by calling (504) 285-7187.

What does Thibodaux or Lafourche Parish require for fence height and setback?

Height and setback rules are set by the city or parish building code and can vary by zoning. Most residential areas allow a 6-foot privacy fence in the backyard, but front-yard setbacks and corner-visibility requirements are stricter. If you live in a master-planned community or have an HOA, deed restrictions may be even more specific about height, material, and color. Before you start, check with the Thibodaux or Lafourche Parish building department and your HOA if one applies. We work from your existing survey and install on the line you identify, and we coordinate with the building department on permits.

My neighbor's tree branch hangs over my fence. What are my rights, and who do I call?

Louisiana property law says a property owner can trim branches that overhang their land, back to the property line. You cannot cross the property line to do the work, and you cannot poison or damage the tree. If the branch is large or close to power lines, hire a certified arborist or call us for advice. If you and your neighbor disagree about the boundary or the branch, a licensed land surveyor can determine the exact property line. If the tree belongs to an HOA or is on common ground, contact the HOA before you trim anything.

Are you fully insured? What if something goes wrong during the job?

Yes, we are fully insured. We carry general liability and workers' compensation coverage. If damage occurs during the work, we document it and help you file a claim with our insurance. We take care of our work and your property, and insurance protects both of us. We can provide a certificate of insurance on request.

I want to install a vinyl privacy fence. What are the advantages over wood?

Vinyl or PVC fencing doesn't rot, splinter, or need staining. It resists moisture and stays clean with a simple rinse from the hose. The trade-off is cost: vinyl runs from $42 per linear foot versus $32 for wood. Vinyl also doesn't weather to a silver-gray the way wood does, so the color stays consistent. In Thibodaux, where the historic look is wood, vinyl is less common, but it's a solid choice if you want low maintenance and don't mind the modern appearance. We install both and can walk you through the pros and cons for your property.
