Everything People Ask Us

Vinyl is one of the most popular fence choices in Tampa Bay for good reason: it does not rot, feed termites, or need painting, and it stands up to years of direct Florida sun and summer rain. Scott managed the vinyl department at a wholesale fence company for more than 12 years before founding New Tampa Fence, so vinyl is the product we know deepest, from the formulation to the right way to set posts in sandy soil. See the styles in person: call 813-423-2383 for a free estimate.

In most Tampa Bay neighborhoods, yes. Vinyl privacy fencing is one of the most commonly approved styles because of its clean, consistent look, and we work with HOA guidelines every week across Tampa, Lutz, Wesley Chapel, and Land O’ Lakes. We will help you pick a height, color, and style your association will approve the first time, and we can supply the drawings and specs your architectural review board asks for. Send your HOA’s guidelines with the form on this page and we will take it from there.

Yes. Fittings are cut in our own shop on our CNC routing machine, and rivets are color matched and mounted on the inside of the fence so the visible side stays clean. That manufacturing background is the difference between a fence that is assembled and one that is built. It also means we are never waiting on a third party to cut parts, which keeps your installation on schedule. Want to see the difference up close? Ask for sample pieces at your free estimate: 813-423-2383.

Every installation carries our 10 year labor warranty. If posts shift, panels separate, or hardware fails because of our workmanship inside ten years, we come back and make it right at no cost. That is on top of the manufacturer’s coverage on the vinyl itself. A warranty is only as good as the company behind it, and we have been family owned and installing across Tampa Bay since 2012. Get the details in writing with your free estimate: call 813-423-2383.

We install vinyl fencing across all of Tampa Bay: Tampa, Lutz, Wesley Chapel, Land O’ Lakes, Odessa, Trinity, Zephyrhills, Spring Hill, and Dade City. Our shop is in Lutz on FL-54, so crews are close by, and estimates are always free. Whether it is a small backyard run or a full perimeter for a master planned community, we will give you a realistic number and a real timeline. Call 813-423-2383 or send the form on this page to get started.

We build classic wood privacy fences, shadowbox and board on board styles, and picket fencing across Tampa Bay, matched to your yard and your HOA’s guidelines. Wood gives you a natural look, multiple height options, and the lowest upfront cost of the major materials. We will walk you through the style tradeoffs at your estimate and bring examples of the details, like cap and trim options, that make one wood fence look better than another. Free estimates: 813-423-2383.

Proper post setting is most of the job. Our crews set posts deep, in concrete, spaced for Florida wind and rain, because a wood fence is only as strong as what is holding it up. Our fabrication background shows in the rest: clean cuts, consistent picket spacing, and rails that run true. That is the difference you notice from the street two years after installation. If your current fence is leaning, we are happy to look at it during a free estimate: 813-423-2383.

Yes. We know the common guidelines across Tampa Bay neighborhoods and will help you choose a height and style your association will approve the first time. Shadowbox styles are a frequent HOA favorite because they look finished from both sides. We can provide the specs and drawings your review board needs, which saves most homeowners a full round of back and forth. Send the form on this page with your community name and we will tell you what usually gets approved there.

Every fence carries our 10 year labor warranty on workmanship. Wood moves with Florida weather, that is its nature, but if a post shifts or a panel fails because of how we built it, we come back and make it right at no cost. We have been family owned and installing across Tampa Bay since 2012, so the warranty is backed by a company that will still be here in year ten. Get it in writing with your free estimate: 813-423-2383.

We install wood fencing across Tampa, Lutz, Wesley Chapel, Land O’ Lakes, Odessa, Trinity, Zephyrhills, Spring Hill, and Dade City. Estimates are always free, and we will help you pick a style your HOA will approve before any material is ordered. Our shop is in Lutz on FL-54, so if you want to talk through options in person, that works too. Call 813-423-2383 or use the form on this page and we will set a time that suits you.

Aluminum gives you the look of wrought iron without the rust. It is the strong choice for pool enclosures, front yards, ponds, and conservation lines, anywhere you want security and a finished look without blocking the view. It handles Florida sun and rain without painting or sealing, and the powder coated finish keeps its color for years. If you are weighing aluminum against vinyl or chain link, we will give you a straight comparison for your property at a free estimate: 813-423-2383.

We came from the manufacturing side of fencing, and aluminum is where that shows most. Fittings are cut in our own shop, and rivets are color matched and mounted on the inside, so the visible face of your fence stays clean, no shiny fastener heads staring at the street. Gates are hung to swing true and keep swinging true. Ask any installer who cuts their fittings; if the answer is a supplier, the details will show. Ask us in person: 813-423-2383, estimates are free.

Yes, aluminum is the standard choice for pool safety fencing in Florida. The open pickets keep swimmers visible, the material does not rust around water, and we install it with the picket spacing, height, and self latching gate hardware pool barrier guidelines call for. We handle residential pools and community pool perimeters for HOAs and property managers alike. Tell us about your pool area on the form on this page and we will quote it free.

All of Tampa Bay: Tampa, Lutz, Wesley Chapel, Land O’ Lakes, Odessa, Trinity, Zephyrhills, Spring Hill, and Dade City. From single gates to full perimeters, estimates are always free and we will give you a realistic number before any work begins. Our crews are based out of Lutz, so scheduling across the bay area is quick. Call 813-423-2383 or send the form on this page and we will get you on the calendar.

For budget conscious security, pet containment, and commercial perimeters, chain link is hard to beat. We install galvanized and black vinyl coated chain link across Tampa Bay, and the black coated option in particular disappears into landscaping far better than most people expect. It goes up fast, takes almost no maintenance, and privacy slats are available when coverage matters. If you want maximum fence for the dollar, start with a free estimate: 813-423-2383.

Yes, including double drive gates and cantilever gates for wider openings. Gate frames are welded and hung to swing true, with hardware sized for daily use, whether that is a backyard walk gate or a commercial entrance trucks roll through every morning. Gates are where cheap chain link work fails first, so it is where we spend the extra care. Tell us what needs to pass through and we will spec it right: 813-423-2383.

Yes. We install commercial perimeters and tall sports fencing, including ballfield backstops that run 20 to 30 feet high, with the pole setting engineered so they stay put in Florida wind. We work around active businesses, staging the job so your operation keeps running during installation. One crew handles layout through finish, and the 10 year labor warranty applies to commercial work just like residential. Request a site visit with the form on this page.

We install chain link across Tampa, Lutz, Wesley Chapel, Land O’ Lakes, Odessa, Trinity, Zephyrhills, Spring Hill, and Dade City. Estimates are always free, and because chain link is our fastest install, small residential jobs can often be scheduled quickly. Commercial perimeter? We will walk the site with you. Call 813-423-2383 or send the form on this page for a realistic number before any work begins.

Yes. From storage yards to full facility perimeters, we install commercial chain link and metal security fencing with matching gates, and we plan the layout around your operation, sight lines, camera positions, and access points included. One crew is accountable from layout to finish, and commercial installs carry the same 10 year labor warranty as everything we build. Request a site walk through the form on this page.

Yes, including double drive gates and cantilever gates sized for trucks and equipment. We plan gate locations around your traffic flow so deliveries, staff, and emergency access all work the way your site needs, and the hardware is specced for daily commercial use, not weekend duty. Gates are the working part of a security fence, so they get the most attention. Call 813-423-2383 to talk through your site.

Our own crews, never subs. New Tampa Fence is family owned, has installed across Tampa Bay since 2012, and fabricates fittings in-house, which matters on security work where hardware quality is the whole point. You will have one point of contact from estimate to final walkthrough. BBB A+ accredited since 2016. Set up a site visit at 813-423-2383.

Yes. Ballfield backstops run 20 to 30 feet high, and we engineer the pole setting so they stay put in Florida wind. Tall structures live or die on their footings, which is why we size and set backstop poles deeper than standard fence posts and plan for wind load, not just height. Planning a field project?

Little League and baseball fields, tennis and basketball courts, practice areas, and arena perimeters. We handle backstops, dugout fencing, outfield runs, and the gates and hardware that keep players and spectators where they belong. Leagues and municipalities get the same single crew accountability as every job we run. Request a quote through the form on this page.

Yes, from layout and materials through installation, with one crew accountable for the result. You get a single point of contact instead of a general contractor juggling subs, and our 10 year labor warranty covers the finished work. We can also phase around seasons so fields are ready when play starts. Call 813-423-2383 to talk scheduling.

With our own CNC routing machine and shop, we fabricate custom fittings, gates, and one-off designs that big box installers have to special order, if they will touch them at all. If it belongs on or around a fence, we can probably make it. Bring us the drawing, or just the idea, and we will figure out the build: 813-423-2383.

Control. We match colors, mount rivets on the inside for a clean look, and never wait on a third party to cut parts, which keeps custom projects on schedule instead of stalled behind someone else’s queue. It is also why our repairs and match jobs come out looking factory made. Ask to see shop samples at your free estimate: 813-423-2383.

Yes. Bring us the odd one. We came from the manufacturing side of fencing and custom work is our comfort zone, from odd angle lots to one-of-a-kind gates to matching something nobody makes anymore. The projects other installers pass on are usually the ones we enjoy most. Describe yours on the form on this page and we will take a look.

Yes, every estimate is free, with no pressure and no obligation. Call 813-423-2383 or send the contact form and we will set a time, walk the fence line with you, and give you a realistic number, not a lowball that grows later. Most estimates are scheduled within a few days, and you will talk to people who actually build fences, not a call center.
