Gulf Coast Fence

Gulf Coast Fence handles fencing work out of Waller, Texas. The company takes on both residential and commercial projects that include new fence installation, fence replacement, wood fences, aluminum fences, vinyl fences, chain link fences, wrought iron fencing, privacy fences, and custom builds. They also install and repair automatic gates, driveway gates, and access control systems across Houston and nearby communities such as Katy, Cypress, Tomball, Bellaire, Memorial, River Oaks, Bunker Hill Village, and West University Place.

Reviewers describe fence replacements after storms, electric driveway gate installs, iron fence panel swaps with added puppy bars, wood privacy fences finished in a couple of days, and automatic gate setups that needed later adjustments. Drew and Jamie handled post-storm fence builds that left homeowners pleased with the final look. Drew also managed a fast gate order placed midweek and completed by Friday morning. Other jobs involved three-person crews that protected plants during installs and cleaned up afterward, while one iron fence project included options explained ahead of time even though it was not the lowest bid.

Work happens on short notice in some cases, with crews showing up the day after a call and pushing through rain to finish. Free on-site estimates are offered, and service reaches the listed Houston-area spots. Follow-up communication draws mixed notes, with some customers reaching the right person quickly for warranty fixes on gates and others leaving repeated messages that go unanswered for months. Pricing and options get discussed upfront on bigger jobs, and crews sometimes arrive without a licensed driver for gated community access.

The Google rating sits at 3.9 with feedback that often mentions solid finished fences alongside occasional delays in repairs and uneven crew coordination.

“Drew and Jamie were wonderful and built two new fences for us right after Hurricane Beryl knocked ours over. Their crew was very professional and did a fantastic job. We love our new fences so much!”

“Drew & his team installed an electric gate on our driveway. Six months later gate operation has developed a problem & despite numerous calls & voice messages they have not come by to fix it. Now gate is completely inoperable! Terrible customer service.”

“I order our gate Wednesday afternoon and it was installed Friday morning Drew was awesome to work with very responsive and we are very pleased with finished product. Would recommend them to anyone”

“They replaced panels on an iron fence for us in November 2018, also added “puppy bars”. I was happy with the options and explanations they offered leading up to the project, as it was not cheap and it took some time to work out what would work best. I went with this company even though it was not the low bidder, because based on their responsiveness leading up the project, I thought they would do the best work. The work was good for the most part. I noticed on multiple occasions during the course of the project that owner said he would be by at a particular time and typically didn’t show. Also the crew did not have a licensed driver and it was an issue for gated community access. For our back gate I specifically requested a latch that would not require a key to open/close (our previous gate did not require a key), but somehow the preference was not communicated to the crew chief, and we ended up with a gate that required a key. I didn’t notice until after the crew had left with the final payment. They also left a few tools in the yard, and a few stray pieces of iron. When I emailed about the issue with the gate, the reply was that they would be back to correct that within ”

“Good service needs to be rewarded. The fence Gulf Coast Fence Co built for me is absolutely awesome. No one has ever worked harder than their 3 installers. They are skilled teammates who work together to create the product that was promised. Their care of my plants and cleanup added beauty to the fence they completed in two days.”

“Gulf Coast Fence installed a wood fence for me several years ago. I was happy with the price and the workmanship so I recently had them install an automatic driveway gate. There was a glitch with the mechanism shortly after installation, but they were very responsive to my request for follow-up service in accordance with their warranty, and the gate is functioning well and looks great.”

“The Richardson family is first class and very very helpful. I had misplaced a gate remote after searching to no avail to locate I reached out to Andrew to inquire about obtaining a new one.. I felt like Andrew took this call and executed it just as he would a large gate or fencing contractor and I appreciate their urgency very much. Richard Varner”

“Gulf Coast Fence builds beautiful custom fences. The owners are very friendly, professional and so easy to work. Definitely beyond five stars.”

“These guys did a great job! I called them out yesterday and they came and did the job today. I couldn’t be happier, they even worked around the rain! They were soaked at the end of the job, but the fence was done!”

“They installed a fence for me. I noticed they were taking shortcuts. I had to really stay on them. The fence was completed, but I should have gone with the other company that just charged $500 more. This company seems like they are everywhere and doesn't know which hand is doing what.”

“Horrible customer service! I spoke with a female via phone, very unprofessional, just blew me off. Thanks for the heads up.”

“Good people. Could not have gone off any better. Thank you!”
