Fence Installation Services We Offer in Tulsa
VistaScapes installs residential fences throughout the Tulsa metro, including Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso, and South Tulsa. Here’s what we build:
Wood Privacy Fences
Cedar and pressure-treated pine are the most popular choices for privacy fencing in Oklahoma. A standard 6-foot cedar board-on-board privacy fence provides full sightline blockage, looks beautiful fresh, and can be stained or painted to match your home. Cedar is naturally resistant to rot and insects — a smart choice for Oklahoma’s humid summers and freeze-thaw winters.
Typical cost: $20–$45 per linear foot installed, depending on fence height, board style, and post spacing. A standard 150-linear-foot backyard enclosure runs $3,000–$6,750.
Vinyl Privacy Fences
Vinyl fencing requires almost zero maintenance — no staining, no sealing, no rot. It’s UV-stabilized so it won’t yellow or fade under Oklahoma’s intense summer sun. Popular styles include shadowbox, tongue-and-groove, and lattice-top panels. Vinyl costs more upfront but saves significantly on lifetime maintenance.
Typical cost: $25–$55 per linear foot installed. A 150-linear-foot enclosure runs $3,750–$8,250.
Aluminum Ornamental Fencing
Aluminum fencing gives your property a classic, high-end look without the maintenance issues of wrought iron. It’s powder-coated, rust-proof, and available in dozens of styles. Commonly installed around pools, front yards, and estate properties in South Tulsa and Midtown. Works well paired with masonry pillars or stone columns.
Typical cost: $30–$65 per linear foot installed.
Chain-Link Fencing
Chain-link is the most cost-effective option for large enclosures, utility areas, or secondary fencing. We install galvanized and vinyl-coated chain-link in heights from 4 to 8 feet.
Typical cost: $10–$22 per linear foot installed.
Fence Repair & Replacement
Oklahoma windstorms — especially spring and fall severe weather — knock out fence sections every year. We repair broken rails, replace rotted posts, reset leaning sections, and re-hang sagging gates. If your fence is older than over a decade, a full replacement often costs less over time than repeated repairs.
How Much Does a Fence Cost in Tulsa?
Fence pricing in the Tulsa area depends on four variables: linear footage, material, fence height, and terrain. Oklahoma clay soil requires deeper post setting (typically 36–42 inches) compared to states with stable, sandy soil — this adds labor time on some installs.
| Fence Type | Per Linear Foot (Installed) | Typical 150 LF Backyard |
|---|---|---|
| Cedar Wood Privacy | $20–$45 | $3,000–$6,750 |
| Vinyl Privacy | $25–$55 | $3,750–$8,250 |
| Aluminum Ornamental | $30–$65 | $4,500–$9,750 |
| Chain-Link | $10–$22 | $1,500–$3,300 |
Gates add $200–$800 per gate depending on width and style. Corner posts, end posts, and terminal posts are included in standard pricing. Permit fees in Tulsa and Broken Arrow typically run $50–$150 and we handle the permit pull for you.

Why Oklahoma Homeowners Choose VistaScapes for Fence Installation
- over a decade serving Tulsa and Broken Arrow — we know Oklahoma soil, weather, and city permit requirements cold
- Licensed and insured — full general liability coverage protects your property on every job
- Post-setting done right — we set posts in concrete to the proper depth for Oklahoma freeze-thaw cycles so your fence doesn’t lean or heave
- Clean jobsites — we haul away all debris and old fence materials
- Combine with outdoor living — many of our clients add a fence at the same time as a patio, pergola, or outdoor kitchen so the entire backyard is transformed in one project
Fence + Outdoor Living Package Projects
One of the smartest ways to maximize your outdoor investment is to build the fence at the same time as the rest of your backyard. When VistaScapes installs a full outdoor living build — patio, pergola, fire pit, or outdoor kitchen — we can coordinate the fence installation in the same project. This saves mobilization costs and ensures the fence line, gate placement, and patio layout are designed together rather than awkwardly retrofitted later.

Fence Building Process — What to Expect
- Free on-site estimate: We visit your property, measure the fence line, assess terrain and any grade changes, and discuss materials and style options. We check city setback requirements for your specific address.
- Written proposal: You receive a line-item written estimate within 48 hours — material, labor, permit, and gate pricing clearly itemized.
- Permit pull: We handle the Tulsa or Broken Arrow fence permit — no paperwork burden on you.
- Utility locate: We call Oklahoma 811 before any digging to identify and mark underground utilities. This is required by law and protects you and our crew.
- Post setting: Steel-cased holes drilled to proper depth, posts set in concrete, allowed to cure before any panel installation begins.
- Panel installation: Rails and pickets (or panels) installed per manufacturer specs and our quality standards.
- Final walkthrough: We walk the completed fence with you before collecting final payment. Gates adjusted, any touch-up done on the spot.
Fence Permits in Tulsa — What You Need to Know
Both the City of Tulsa and the City of Broken Arrow require fence permits for most new fence installations. Key rules homeowners often don’t know:
- Front yard fences are typically limited to 4 feet in height in residential zones
- Corner lots have additional sight-triangle setback restrictions that affect fence placement
- HOA approval is required separately from city permits if your neighborhood has an HOA — we can help you understand what to submit but the HOA approval is your responsibility
- Permit fees are typically $50–$150 and must be pulled before work begins
We pull all required permits on every job. You never have to deal with the permit process yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions — Fence Builder Tulsa
How much does it cost to build a privacy fence in Tulsa?
A cedar wood privacy fence in Tulsa typically runs $20–$45 per linear foot installed. For an average backyard enclosure of 150 linear feet, expect $3,000–$6,750 for cedar and $3,750–$8,250 for vinyl. Aluminum ornamental fencing runs $30–$65 per linear foot. Prices vary based on terrain, fence height, and gate count.
Do I need a permit to build a fence in Tulsa?
Yes. Both the City of Tulsa and Broken Arrow require permits for most new fence installations. VistaScapes handles the permit pull for you as part of every fence project — no extra charge for the permit service, though the city permit fee ($50–$150) is passed through at cost.
How long does fence installation take?
Most residential fence installs in the Tulsa area take 1–3 days depending on linear footage, terrain complexity, and number of gates. After permit approval (typically 3–5 business days), we can usually schedule installation within 1–2 weeks.
What fence material is best for Oklahoma weather?
Cedar is the best natural wood option — it’s naturally rot-resistant and handles Oklahoma’s humidity and temperature swings well. Vinyl is the best low-maintenance option — it won’t rot, warp, or need staining. Aluminum is best for front yards and pool enclosures where aesthetics matter more than privacy.
Can VistaScapes remove and haul away my old fence?
Yes. Old fence removal and haul-away is available as an add-on service. We remove the existing fence structure, pull posts (or grind them flush if needed), and haul everything to disposal. Old fence removal typically adds $2–$6 per linear foot to the project total.
Do you install fence on sloped or hilly yards?
Yes. Tulsa-area lots often have significant grade changes, especially backing to creek beds or ravines. We use stepped fence panels or racked panels depending on the slope severity. We assess slope at the time of estimate to price it correctly upfront.
