At Mustang Fencing, we take pride in delivering top-quality fencing solutions that match the unique needs of our clients. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with Karen Patit, a homeowner in Galveston, Texas, who was looking for a durable and aesthetically pleasing fence to enhance the privacy and security of her property. Her project required a 66-foot fence with galvanized posts, 8-foot pickets, a 2×12 top trim, all secured with screws, along with a gate featuring a metal frame and a repair to an old privacy kit, which needed a simple lock change.
This project was a great example of the level of care and customization we bring to every job, and it was a pleasure to work with Karen to make sure her vision was fully realized.
The Initial Consultation
Karen reached out to us after deciding that her aging fence needed to be replaced and upgraded. From our first conversation, it was clear she knew exactly what she wanted: a sturdy, long-lasting fence that would offer privacy without sacrificing the visual appeal of her property. The fence needed to align with the Galveston weather conditions, which can be unpredictable due to its proximity to the coast. We suggested galvanized posts for added durability, 8-foot pickets for privacy, and a rot-resistant top trim to ensure longevity.
The consultation process was seamless. Karen was well-prepared, and we appreciated her attention to detail. It’s always wonderful to work with clients who have a clear vision for their property, and Karen’s enthusiasm made the design phase a collaborative experience.
The Importance of Quality Materials
One of Karen’s main concerns was ensuring that the materials used for her new fence were durable enough to withstand the elements, especially given the sometimes harsh coastal climate of Galveston. We recommended using high-quality galvanized posts, which are resistant to rust and corrosion, providing structural integrity to the fence for years to come. The 8-foot pickets were chosen not only for their height but also for their natural beauty and ability to create a solid privacy barrier. Karen also loved the idea of using a 2×12 top trim, which would give the fence a polished, finished look while adding extra strength to the overall structure.
We also opted for screws rather than nails for assembly, as screws offer a stronger, more secure hold, which is essential for fences exposed to the varying weather conditions of Galveston. The gate, featuring a metal frame, was designed for both security and ease of use. We paid particular attention to the repair of her old privacy kit, ensuring that the lock change was done efficiently and effectively.
The Installation Process
Once we finalized the design, our team quickly got to work. The installation process was straightforward, and we kept Karen updated every step of the way. We started by setting the galvanized posts, ensuring they were deep enough to provide a strong foundation. After the posts were in place, we attached the 8-foot pickets, carefully aligning them to maintain a consistent and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
The 2×12 top trim was installed next, giving the fence a distinctive look while adding additional strength to the structure. The trim not only enhances the fence’s durability but also gives it a clean, finished appearance that Karen loved.
The gate was another focal point of the project. We designed it with a sturdy metal frame, ensuring it would swing smoothly and offer long-term durability. As requested, we also repaired Karen’s old privacy kit, changing the lock efficiently to ensure her home’s security was up to her standards.
A Happy Customer
When the project was completed, Karen was thrilled with the results. The fence was exactly what she had envisioned—strong, stylish, and perfectly suited to her property. She was especially impressed with the attention to detail, from the solid construction to the smooth operation of the gate and the precise repair of her privacy kit.
At Mustang Fencing, we take great pride in delivering projects that not only meet but exceed our clients’ expectations. Working with Karen was a pleasure, and we’re glad we could provide her with a fencing solution that will stand the test of time.
