La Union sits in the heart of the Mesilla Valley, where irrigated pecan and cotton fields meet the edge of El Paso's service area. This small farming village and its surrounding properties depend on solid fencing to mark field lines, contain livestock, and secure residential lots carved from orchard and agricultural ground.

When a fence line needs repair, replacement, or new installation in La Union (88021), homeowners and property managers call El Paso Fence Company. We've served La Union and the surrounding Lower Valley since 2015, and we understand the specific challenges that come with older farmhouse properties, irrigation-ditch lots, and the mix of residential and working land that defines this community.

Fencing for La Union Farm and Ranch Properties

La Union's character is shaped by its agricultural heritage. Many properties here sit on lots originally carved from orchards and irrigated fields, with adobe farmhouses, modest residential additions, and boundary lines that follow old irrigation ditches and field edges. The terrain is relatively flat across the valley floor, but wind is a constant factor from March through June, and the intense high-desert sun means wood fencing here takes real weather exposure. Soil is typically caliche-heavy, which affects post-setting depth and concrete work. Chain link and farm fencing must be set solid against the wind; wood and vinyl fences need proper post spacing and bracing to hold up to the spring gusts that sweep across the valley.

Our team has been installing and repairing fences across La Union and the El Paso area since 2015. We work with fully insured crews on farm and ranch fencing, chain link installation, and repair jobs that are common to this part of the valley. We're members of the American Fence Association, and we take the time to understand what each property actually needs, whether that's a sturdy perimeter fence for a small holding, a replacement run along an old property line, or repair work on fencing damaged by wind or age.

How a Fence Job Works in La Union

Step 1: Free on-site assessment. Call us at (915) 621-2956 or reach out online. We'll visit your La Union property, walk the fence line with you, and talk through what you're trying to accomplish. We'll look at soil conditions, access for equipment, existing post conditions, and any local setback or height rules that apply. We'll answer your questions straight and give you a clear estimate before we start.

Step 2: The work itself. Before we dig any post holes, we call 811 for a utility locate (required by Texas law). We set posts in concrete, spaced correctly for wind load and your fence type. For chain link on a farm property, we tension the fabric properly and set anti-sag bracing if the run is long. For wood or vinyl, we install stringers and pickets to spec, and we make sure gates swing true and latch solid. We work around your schedule and your property.

Step 3: Cleanup and walkthrough. We haul our debris and leave your property clean. We walk the finished fence line with you, show you the work, and make sure you're satisfied before we call the job done.

Pricing for fencing in La Union depends on the type of fence, the length of the run, soil conditions, and access for our crews and equipment. Farm and ranch fencing starts at $12 per linear foot; chain link at $16 per linear foot; wood privacy fence at $27 per linear foot; and vinyl at $38 per linear foot. Ornamental metal and aluminum fencing runs $42 per linear foot. Repair work, post replacement, and gate installation each carry their own scope and cost. We price storm damage assessment and documentation at no charge. For a realistic estimate on your specific property in La Union (88021), call us at (915) 621-2956 and we'll schedule a free on-site visit. We'll walk the fence line, look at what needs doing, and give you honest pricing before you decide.

What kind of fencing works best on an old farmhouse lot in La Union with irrigation-ditch boundaries?

On a lot that follows an irrigation ditch or old field line, chain link or farm fencing is often the practical choice. Chain link is durable, low-maintenance, and doesn't rot or warp in the high-desert sun and wind. Farm fencing (starting at $12 per linear foot) is economical for larger properties and works well where you need a visible boundary without the cost of wood or vinyl. If you prefer a privacy fence, vinyl holds up better than wood in the intense sun and spring wind, though it costs more upfront. We can walk your property line with you and recommend what makes sense for your specific lot and budget.

My fence was damaged in a spring windstorm. What do I do?

Call us right away at (915) 621-2956. We respond to storm damage in La Union and the surrounding area. We'll come out and assess the damage at no charge. If pickets are broken, rails are cracked, posts are leaning, or a gate is off its hinges, we'll document what we see and give you a clear repair estimate. We can help you put together the information you need for an insurance claim if you have one. Repair work often costs less than full replacement, and we'll tell you honestly whether your fence can be put right or whether replacement is the better spend.

How much does it cost to replace a section of old wood fencing in La Union?

Wood privacy fence replacement runs about $27 per linear foot for pressure-treated pine, which is standard in this area. A 50-foot section would run around $1,350 before any gate work or post repairs. The actual cost depends on post condition (if existing posts are solid and can be reused, the price is lower), whether the run is straight or has angles or steps, and what access our crews have to the property. For an exact figure, call us at (915) 621-2956 and describe the section you want replaced. We'll give you a free estimate.

Do I need a permit to install a fence in La Union?

Permit rules vary across Greater El Paso and depend on which jurisdiction has authority over your property. La Union itself and some surrounding areas have specific setback, height, and material rules set by the city or county. If you're in a master-planned community or homeowners association, deed restrictions and HOA architectural standards may also apply. Before we start work, we recommend you check with the local building department or your HOA to confirm what's allowed on your lot. We're happy to help you understand what you're looking at, and we'll work within whatever rules apply to your property.

What should I do if my neighbor's tree branches are hanging over my fence line?

Branches that overhang your property belong to your neighbor, and Texas property law says you can trim back growth that crosses your property line, but you can't cut the tree down or damage it. If the overhang is significant or the branches are large, it's worth a direct conversation with your neighbor first. If you're in an HOA, check your governing documents to see if there are rules about tree trimming or dispute resolution. If the issue doesn't resolve, a licensed land surveyor can help establish your exact property line, and you can work from there. We install fencing on the line you identify, and we work with what's already there.

Are your crews insured for fence work on my La Union property?

Yes. We are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. We can provide a certificate of insurance on request. If you're having work done on a property you don't own, or if your homeowners insurance has questions, let us know and we'll help you document our coverage.

What's the best time of year to install a fence in La Union?

Fall and winter are ideal. The weather is cooler, the wind is less intense than the spring gusts from March through June, and the ground is easier to work with. Spring and early summer are possible, but you'll be installing in heat and wind, which slows the work and makes it harder on our crews. Summer heat in the high desert is intense. If you need a fence installed urgently, we can do it, but if you have flexibility, fall or winter will give you better conditions and a faster job. Call us at (915) 621-2956 to discuss timing for your property.
