Wood & Privacy Fence
For in-town homes where neighbors are close, a wood privacy fence gives you a screened backyard built to handle open-country wind.

The brick-paved downtown and the older housing stock tell you what most fence work here looks like: replacing a fence that has served a family for decades, or adding privacy and pet containment to a home that never had a fence at all.
Wymore carries a real identity as the old Welsh settlement of the plains, anchored by the Welsh Heritage Centre downtown. We mention that because it matters to how we work here. These are long-held family properties, and homeowners want a fence company that treats the yard and the neighbors with some respect, not a crew that shows up, drills, and leaves.
On an established lot, the property line is not always where the old fence sits. Fences drift over 40 or 50 years, and neighbors sometimes mowed to a line that is not the deed line. Before we tear anything out in Wymore, we confirm where your line actually runs so a new fence goes in right and does not start a disagreement next door.
Older yards also come with mature trees and root systems. We plan the post line around big roots where we can, and where a root is unavoidable we adjust the setting rather than fighting it. It keeps the run straight and keeps the tree healthy.
Gage County ground is dominated by silty clay loam, including the Wymore series that forms on the uplands around Beatrice from deep clayey loess. That clay holds moisture and swells and shrinks with the seasons, which is exactly the kind of soil that heaves a shallow-set post over a few winters. We drive posts 4 feet deep, below the roughly 40-inch frost line, and add gravel drainage bases in the low, wetter spots near the Big Blue River so water moves away from the post instead of pooling around it.
Inside Beatrice city limits, fences are handled through the Community Development Department, which reviews plans and issues the permit, and the city zoning rules cap most front-yard fences at 4 feet with taller fences allowed elsewhere on the lot. Out in unincorporated Gage County, fence and zoning questions go through Gage County Planning and Zoning in Beatrice. You do not have to sort out which set of rules applies to your address. Tell us where the project is and we will confirm the requirements before we schedule anything.
Wymore is one of many Gage County communities KD Fencing covers. We also build fence in these nearby towns:
The fences that make the most sense in Wymore come down to how you use your property. Here are the styles we install most often around town.
For in-town homes where neighbors are close, a wood privacy fence gives you a screened backyard built to handle open-country wind.
Chain link is a practical, budget-friendly way to secure a yard, a business lot, or an equipment area, with gates sized to how you use the property.
On the acreages and pasture around town, we build woven wire and field fence with driven posts and braced corners for livestock and boundary runs.
It depends on the bones. If the posts are still solid and only a few sections or a gate have failed, a repair is the smart call and we will tell you so. But if the posts themselves are leaning or rotted at the base, patching sections is throwing good money after bad. We give you an honest read after we look at it, not a sales pitch to replace everything.
Yes, and it is worth getting right. On long-established lots the visible line, an old fence, or a mowing edge often does not match the recorded property line. We help you confirm where the line actually runs before we set posts, so your new fence is on your ground and you avoid a dispute with a neighbor.
We do it all the time in Wymore's older neighborhoods. We route the post line to miss major roots where possible and adjust individual post settings around the ones we cannot avoid. That keeps the fence line straight and does not damage a tree that took decades to grow.
For most established Wymore homes, a wood privacy fence in the back yard and something lower and more open toward the street tends to suit the house. Chain link is still a practical, budget-friendly choice for pet and kid containment. We match the style to the age and character of your home rather than dropping in whatever is cheapest.
