Solid tongue-and-groove vinyl is the most popular privacy fence we install in Tampa Bay — and because we cut, router and finish it in our own shop on M.L.K. Blvd, you're not paying a distributor's markup on it.

Estimates include one walk gate and assume a standard, level run. Tear-out of an old fence, drive gates, slopes, and corner-heavy layouts are priced separately. Your exact number depends on your actual property line — the tool below measures it from county records.
Enter your address and we'll pull your real lot lines from county records, draw the fence on a satellite photo of your property, and price it — then you can book a free on-site measure.
Florida is hard on fencing. Afternoon storms, salt air off the bay, and eight months of UV a year will grey out untreated wood and rust cheap hardware. Vinyl doesn't rot, warp, or need painting — you wash it with a hose. The panels we build are UV-stabilized, which is what stops the white from chalking and the tan from fading after a couple of summers.
Solid tongue-and-groove panels with no gaps to see through, typically 6 ft tall for backyard privacy. Standard colors are white and tan. Posts are set in concrete — that matters more in sandy Tampa soil than most homeowners realize, and it's the single biggest difference between a fence that survives a hurricane season and one that leans.
Corner lots and yards with a lot of direction changes need more posts, which raises the per-foot cost. Slopes need stepped panels. If an old fence has to come out first, tear-out and haul-away is priced separately by the foot. Drive gates cost more than walk gates because of the hardware and the heavier posts.
Vinyl is not the cheapest option — chain link and steel both come in lower per foot. And while it's very durable, a hard enough impact (a falling limb, a reversing truck) can crack a panel rather than bend it. The upside is that a single cracked panel is a cheap, fast repair; you don't replace the run.
Quality vinyl doesn't. The panels are UV-stabilized, which is what prevents the chalking and yellowing you see on older or budget vinyl. That stabilizer is one of the real differences between fence built to spec and fence built to a price.
Most residential fence installs in the Tampa area do require a permit, and HOA approval is separate from the county. We handle permitting as part of the job and can work around HOA approval timelines — it's a normal part of scheduling, not a delay we're surprised by.
Most standard residential runs go up in a single day once materials are on site. Larger properties, heavy tear-out, or difficult access can push it to two.
