Fence Company in New Market, Alabama
New Market is working land. Most fencing calls here are about containing animals or marking a boundary across acreage, not about screening a back yard from the neighbours.
Fence Built for Livestock
Animal fencing is engineered rather than styled. The gaps have to suit the animal, the height has to suit what it can jump or lean over, and the whole run has to hold tension for years without a brace pulling out of the ground. Horses want no-climb or board because a hoof through a wide square is a serious injury. Cattle lean, so the bracing carries a steady load rather than an occasional one. Goats will find any gap in the fence you built for something else.
Gates Where the Work Happens
On a working property the gates matter more than anything else, and they are where most farm fences fail. A gate has to be wide enough for the equipment that actually uses it, hung on a post set to carry a swinging load rather than a static one, and placed where you already drive rather than where the fence line happens to end. We ask what goes through each opening before we set the gate posts.
Jurisdiction: New Market falls under unincorporated Madison County, north-east of Huntsville. Fence rules differ between a city code and county rules, and they change, so we confirm what currently applies to your parcel before the build rather than quoting a rule from memory.

Fence Questions from New Market Homeowners
What fence do you recommend for horses in New Market?
No-climb woven wire or board fence. Both avoid the wide squares that a hoof can go through and then trap a leg. Barbed wire is generally a poor choice around horses for the same reason.
How wide should a farm gate be?
Wide enough for the largest thing that uses it, plus room for error. Twelve and sixteen foot are the common sizes; a tractor with an implement needs the larger. Tell us what goes through and we will size it and set the hinge post to carry it.
Can you fence around an existing tree line or creek?
Yes. We walk the boundary first and plan the route around obstacles rather than through them. Crossings and awkward terrain go on the quote as their own line so there is no surprise cost later.
