Would recommend.Posted on Kayleen JohnsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They were great! Finished the project in one day.Posted on James ElderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Defender Fence did a fantastic job building our new fence; clearly a “5 star” job. But that’s only half the story. I loved the opportunity to deal directly with the owner, Chris. He is a man of integrity that did what he said he’d do, came when he said he was coming, and charged what he said he was charging. He is extremely knowledgeable about fencing. The end result far exceeded our expectations. And if that wasn’t enough, Defender Fence’s pricing was one of my most competitive bids.Posted on Beka TreuterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chris was so helpful. We had some ideas but he gave great suggestions and helped us stay in our budget as well. He went above and beyond to make sure the repair matched the rest of our gate and the other gate he installed looks great! Would highly recommend!Posted on Brian DumkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Defender Fence
When you book fence installation in Joshua, you want more than new panels you want a boundary you can trust. Defender Fence Company helps homeowners who need backyard privacy, families who want safer space for kids and pets, landowners who need livestock containment on acreage, and business owners who need perimeter security along Highway 174 and the growing commercial corridor.We also support contractors and builders with temporary fence rental options for active job sites across Johnson County.
We plan each project around local conditions. Joshua sits on heavy clay soil that shifts with the seasonal wet-dry cycle, which means fence posts need to be set deeper with proper concrete footings to prevent leaning. Summer heat and UV dry out untreated wood fast, while spring storms and gusty fronts can push weak posts out of line. We recommend materials and build methods that fit your property cedar privacy, chain link, iron, vinyl, farm and ranch fencing, and secure gates. Our process stays smooth: we visit the site, measure carefully, review property-line and HOA checkpoints,coordinate utility marking through 811, and clean up fully at the end.
Services
The City of Joshua requires permits for new fence construction and for fence repairs exceeding 50% of the fence’s total surface area. Understanding Joshua’s specific fence ordinance (Article 3.05) before you start will save time and prevent code violations.

We handle the permit process for every Joshua project. During your free estimate, we assess whether your fence design requires a permit based on height, location on the lot, and your property’s zoning. If a permit is needed, we prepare the application, submit it to the City of Joshua Building Permits Department at City Hall, and coordinate any required inspections. We also call to have underground utilities marked before any digging begins.

Joshua Fence Company
Defender Fence Company provides dependable fence installation and repair services throughout Joshua. We focus on security, long-term durability, and clean curb appeal for both residential and commercial properties.
Over the years, we’ve worked across Joshua from established neighborhoods near the city center to growing areas along Highway 174 and surrounding rural properties. Every location is different. Lot sizes, soil conditions, and property requirements can vary, so we plan each project based on what actually works best for that specific site.
Whether you need cedar privacy fencing, low-maintenance vinyl, ornamental iron for added security, or chain link for a cost-effective solution, we help you choose what fits your property and long-term goals. Joshua’s clay-heavy soil can shift with changing weather, so we install posts deeper, use proper concrete, and select materials designed to handle Texas heat and seasonal movement.
We also serve commercial properties throughout Joshua, including local businesses and agricultural land. From security fencing and access gates to temporary fencing for construction or events, we keep your property protected and projects running smoothly.
If your existing fence doesn’t require full replacement, we’ll let you know. We handle repairs like leaning posts, broken panels, and dragging gates and only recommend replacement when repairs won’t hold up. No pressure, just honest guidance.

Larger properties, farm and ranch installations, or commercial projects may require 5–7 days.Timeline depends on fence length, material choice, terrain, and ground conditions.
