Gaston sits on large sandy lots across Lexington County, where homeowners value privacy and clear sightlines across their property lines. Columbia Fence Company has been installing and repairing fences here since 2013, and we know what works on these properties and what doesn't.

Whether you need a new wood privacy fence to define your lot, a chain link run for a working property, or a gate that actually swings straight, our fully insured crews handle the work from start to finish. We're AFA Member Installers, and we work in Gaston and the surrounding Columbia area.

Fencing in Gaston, South Carolina (29053)

Gaston properties are built on land that demands solid fence work. The sandy soil means post holes need to be set deep and in concrete to hold a line straight. Lot sizes here are generous, which means longer fence runs, careful post spacing to prevent sagging, and thoughtful gate placement. We work with wood, vinyl, chain link, aluminum, and ornamental iron, and we know which material makes sense for your site and your budget.

Our team has installed hundreds of feet of fence across Gaston and the greater Columbia area. We handle everything from straightforward privacy fences to complex gate installations and storm damage repair. We show up on time, do the work right, and leave your property clean.

How a Fence Job Works in Gaston

Step 1: Free On-Site Assessment. Call us at (839) 250-4891 or contact us online. We visit your property, walk the fence line with you, check for utility lines (we always call 811 before digging), and answer your questions about material, height, setbacks, and local codes. We give you a clear estimate with no surprises.

Step 2: The Work. We set posts in concrete on proper spacing, install rails and pickets or panels straight and square, and brace gates so they swing true. On Gaston lots, we pay close attention to drainage and post depth. If you have an HOA, we coordinate with them before we start. If you need a permit, we help you understand the requirements and work with the local building department.

Step 3: Cleanup and Walkthrough. We haul away all debris, sweep the work area, and walk through the finished fence with you. Your property is left clean and your fence is ready to stand.

Pricing depends on material, linear footage, site access, and whether you're repairing or replacing. Wood privacy fence typically runs from $27 per linear foot. Vinyl and PVC start at $38 per foot. Chain link is our most affordable option at $15 per foot. Ornamental and aluminum fencing runs from $42 per foot. Gates start at $485 for a standard installation, and automatic driveway gates begin at $2,900. Repairs run from $460 for post work and straightforward fixes. Call us at (839) 250-4891 for a free estimate on your specific project. We'll walk your property, measure the run, discuss material and finish, and give you a number you can count on.

Do I need a permit to install a fence in Gaston?
Permit rules vary across Lexington County and the greater Columbia area. Some jurisdictions require them, others don't. Height limits, setback rules, and material restrictions also differ by location and sometimes by HOA. We work with the local building department and your HOA rules before we start. Call us at (839) 250-4891, and we'll help you understand what applies to your property.
What's the best fence material for a large Gaston lot?
It depends on your goal and budget. Wood privacy fence gives you solid screening and a classic look, and it runs $27 per foot. Vinyl is low-maintenance and lasts longer, starting at $38 per foot. Chain link is affordable and practical for working properties, at $15 per foot. Ornamental iron and aluminum are beautiful but pricier, from $42 per foot. We'll walk your lot, talk through your priorities, and recommend what makes sense for your site.
My fence is leaning. Can it be repaired, or does it need to be replaced?
A leaning fence usually means posts have shifted or settled. If the posts are still sound and the damage is localized, we can often reset them in concrete and brace the run to bring it back plumb. If rot or major damage is present, replacement is the better spend. We assess the fence on-site and tell you honestly which path costs less and holds longer. Call (839) 250-4891 to schedule a free look.
A storm knocked down a section of my fence. How do I file a claim?
Document the damage with photos and contact your insurance company right away. We can help you document what happened and the cost to repair or replace. We are fully insured, and we can provide detailed estimates and photos to support your claim. The decision to approve coverage rests with your insurer. Call us at (839) 250-4891 to schedule a damage assessment.
I want to install a gate at the end of my driveway. What are my options?
We install swing gates, cantilever gates, and automatic driveway gates. A standard gate installation runs from $485. Automatic gates, which are ideal for long driveways or frequent use, start at $2,900 and include the operator and hardware. We handle the post work, hinges, latches, and final adjustment so your gate swings smooth and closes secure. Call (839) 250-4891 to discuss what works best for your driveway.
Are your crews fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. We're also AFA Member Installers, which means we follow the standards of the American Fence Association. You can hire us with confidence that the work is backed by real insurance and professional credentials.
What happens if my fence posts rot or fail after installation?
We set posts in concrete on proper depth and spacing to prevent settling and water damage. Posts fail when moisture collects at the ground line or when they're set too shallow. If a post does rot, we replace it from $460 and can often save the rest of the fence. We build fences to last, and if something goes wrong, we stand behind our work. Call (839) 250-4891 if you have concerns about an existing fence.
