Farm & Field Fencing

Post-and-rail, woven wire, and high-tensile for acreage and livestock.

Overview

A clear look at farm & field fencing.

What it is

Agricultural fencing for acreage: woven wire, barbed wire, high-tensile, and split-rail. Treated wood posts driven deep for stability.

Where it's used

Rural Tazewell County properties, hobby farms, horse pastures, cattle ground, and large residential lots that border open field.

Why homeowners pick it

Built for the long property lines and the long haul. Functional, no-nonsense, and priced for the scale of the job.

Note on pricing: Most of our customers only fence the backyard, so the pricing examples on this page are for a standard suburban Tazewell County backyard install (~150 linear feet, three sides).
