"Tony and his crew did an outstanding job removing an old fence and replacing it with a brand new fence. Before the project Tony walked me through the various materials that were available so I could make an informed decision. During the work Tony and his crew were quick and efficient in removing the old fence, cleaning up the area, installing the new fence, and removing the old materials after the project was completed. Throughout the process Tony communicated updates on the project so that I was informed of the next steps. The new fence looks outstanding and I will definitely be recommending Dobi General Contractors to others and using them for future projects."

"AVOID THIS COMPANY! Lacks skilled labor to install railings. -Required replacement of 80% of initial install. -Posts had offset anchors w/ only 2 lag screws/plate. Screws and posts RUSTED SAME DAY. All anchors had to be replaced. -RUST DAMAGE all over our existing deck and concrete patio from discarded metal shavings. -PAINT OVERSPRAY DAMAGE. -DEEP SCRATCHES AND GOUGES in our existing deck from dragging and dropping railing. 30+ deck boards ruined. -NO COMMUNICATION for wks. Over 30 emails and dozens of calls and on-site mtgs. *They offered to replace damaged deck boards but only if we signed a RELEASE OF LIABILITY/WORKMANSHIP! *They offered to pay for and deliver new deck boards but we would STILL HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO INSTALL. *Eventually their Sales Director claimed that we could not prove that they caused the damage to our existing deck and patio. Contrary to their worry free promise, Discount Fence DOES NOT DELIVER GREAT QUALITY and DOES NOT PROVIDE GREAT SERVICE!"

"I had a great experience with Morriss Fence. They replaced my existing fence and the entire process was smooth from start to finish. Their customer service was excellent — responsive, friendly, and easy to work with throughout the project. The crew was professional, efficient, and clearly took pride in their work. The installation was completed quickly without sacrificing quality, and the final result looks fantastic. They also did a great job with cleanup, leaving the area neat and spotless when they were done. Their pricing was very fair and the workmanship truly stands out. In fact, even my neighbor across the street commented on how great the fence looks and how fast the installation was. I would absolutely recommend Morriss Fence to anyone looking for quality work, reliable service, and great value."

FAQs for barbed wire fence installation projects in San Marcos, TX

Barbed wire is a type of fencing made from steel wire with sharp edges or points spaced along the strands. It's designed to prevent unauthorized entry or contain livestock by acting as a physical deterrent. Barbed wire fences are often seen in agricultural settings or high-security areas because they're effective, durable, and require little maintenance.

You can expect to pay between $3 and $6 per linear foot for a barbed wire fence, including installation. The exact price depends on factors like material quality, number of strands, wire thickness, and labor costs. If you have a larger project, bulk purchasing and hiring a professional might offer cost savings.

The number of strands you need depends on the fence's purpose and the level of security you want. For a standard livestock fence, you might use three to five strands. For higher-security needs, you may require more strands to meet your needs. Consider your specific requirements and talk to your fence installation pro to determine the appropriate number.

Barbed wire fencing regulations vary by location. In many residential areas, the use of barbed wire is restricted or prohibited due to safety concerns. Before installing a barbed wire fence, work with your barbed wire fence installation pro to check local zoning laws and homeowner association rules to ensure compliance with regulations.

The lifespan of a barbed wire fence depends on the quality of materials and environmental conditions. Fences made with high-quality, galvanized wire and proper coatings can last between 20 and 30 years. Regular maintenance and inspections can extend the fence's longevity by addressing issues like rust or damaged strands promptly.
