In Florida, a custom wood fence enhances curb appeal, adds security and privacy, and increases the value of your property. A highly versatile material, wood works equally well in suburban neighborhoods, sprawling multi-acre properties, or urban commercial areas. Unlike manufactured fencing materials, wood doesn’t retain heat, making it a cooler, more comfortable choice for sun-exposed properties. There’s typically a lower upfront cost for wood vs. vinyl privacy fences, making wood an affordable option if you’re looking for full-height privacy on a budget.
As a full-service Tampa fence company, we handle everything from consultation and design to permitting and installation. Ask about our flexible financing options and warranty coverage when you reach out.
About Our Wood Fences
Florida State Fence specializes in crafting beautiful wood fences tailored to your specific needs. Wood fencing offers privacy, security, and curb appeal in a highly customizable package, available in styles from the classic picket to sleek horizontal privacy panels. We offer a selection of decorative post caps, custom gates, and access controls to put the finishing touch on your new fence.
Our wood fences balance natural beauty, durability, and versatility. From Tampa front yards to Ocala acreage, wood suits a wide range of residential and commercial applications. It’s a natural fit for backyard privacy enclosures, front yard curb appeal, boundary fencing around commercial properties, and horse and farm fencing for rural properties and working farms throughout Central Florida.
Florida’s humidity, rain, and coastal salt air can be tough on natural materials, but our pre-treated lumber is designed to resist rot and decay, giving your fence a durable foundation built for the local climate.

Wood Fence FAQs
How much does wood fence installation cost in Tampa?
Wood fence installation in Tampa typically runs between $20 and $30 per linear foot. Final pricing depends on wood type, fence design, and property size, with decorative details like lattice crown or post caps adding to the total. For an accurate quote based on your specific project, contact us for a free estimate.
Which wood type is best for fencing in Florida?
Pre-treated lumber for fencing is specially designed to withstand Florida’s humidity, rain, and coastal salt air, allowing it to resist rot and decay over time. With proper construction and professional installation, it can handle the strong winds common during storm season. Florida State Fence uses pressure-treated pine, a cost-effective and durable choice for most residential and commercial fencing projects in Florida.
Do I need a permit for a wood fence in Hillsborough County?
Most residential wood fences don't require a permit, but exceptions apply, including fences that exceed standard height limits, pool barriers, and installations near utility easements or flood zones. The City of Tampa may have additional requirements. If your project requires HOA fence approval or local permitting, Florida State Fence manages that for you to ensure a seamless installation.
How long does wood fence installation take?
Most standard residential installs are completed within one to three days of the start date, weather permitting. Larger projects like Ocala horse and farm fencing, custom designs, or sites with access challenges may take additional time.
Does Florida State Fence install wood fences for commercial properties?
Yes. We install wood fencing for retail centers, office parks, multifamily communities, industrial properties, and hospitality properties throughout Central Florida. For commercial projects requiring entry management, we also offer commercial access controls to enhance security for your perimeter fencing.
Areas We Serve
We cover all of Central Florida through our Tampa and Ocala office locations.

I honestly do not know how I would’ve gotten through this fence experience with Lowe’s without Jamie Leonard aka the Fence Angel, she has seriously made the process as smooth as can be. We had a lot of communication problems with Lowe’s that Jamie kept working on so hard to fix it and to get my fence installed, before during and after. Everything I needed was taken cared of! It’s the straightest most beautiful fence I have ever had installed and they will be the company I have back to do the other side!
