A masonry fence provides a stately, gorgeous addition to most properties, and is one of the sturdiest types of fences you can invest in.

But they aren’t the most common fences, even in Houston. Those who are considering them often come to us with many questions.

Here are answers to the questions we receive most often. 

What are masonry fences made of?

We can create a masonry fence from brick, stone, stucco, or concrete. We tend to favor brick or stone for the old world aesthetics. They’re also more suitable to our climate than most other options.

Do masonry fences require maintenance? If so, what kind?

Yes. All fences require at least a little maintenance, and masonry fences are no exception.

To care for your masonry fence:

• Clean the fence once a year.
• Inspect your fence once a year.
• Seal any cracks that you find.
• Make sure weep holes remain clean and clear.

If you notice your masonry fence requires repairs, you should schedule those repairs right away.

How long do masonry fences last, on average?

If it’s installed correctly and maintained well, a masonry fence can last for a century or more.

Do masonry fences increase the value of a property?

Yes. They are a durable, long-term investment that will instantly elevate your property, showcasing it as a luxury property, all while increase your curb appeal. 

Are masonry fences good for all property types?

No. Especially small properties don’t do well with masonry fences, because they start to feel crowded and crammed in. We usually build masonry fences for larger properties such as ranches or estates. We also build them for Houston-area businesses and churches.

How much do masonry fences typically cost? 

Every fence is different and every property is different, so it’s tough to say without viewing your property and talking to you about your needs. 

Nevertheless, a typical masonry fence may cost anywhere from $6000 to $12,000. 

Fortunately, you get incredible value in the form of increased privacy, safety, and luxury.
