Vinyl fencing is a popular choice for Raleigh homeowners seeking complete backyard privacy without the hassle of routine painting or staining. Formulated with UV-inhibited, commercial-grade PVC, our vinyl panels resist yellowing, cracking, and chalking under intense North Carolina summer sun.
Choose solid tongue-and-groove privacy panels for maximum seclusion, or opt for accent lattice-top finishes.
Heavy-duty reinforced bottom rails prevent sagging during severe rainstorms and wind.
Easily clean your fence with a simple rinse from a garden hose to maintain a fresh look year-round.

Combine elegant architectural styling with heavy-duty security. Powder-coated aluminum fencing provides the classic look of historic wrought iron without the rust—making it ideal for pool enclosures, front entryways, and sloping terrain.
For cost-effective security and reliable perimeter boundary marking, our chain link options offer long-lasting performance for residential backyards, job sites, and commercial facilities.

Yes. Most HOAs want a drawing, the fence style and color, and a product spec sheet before they approve. If you ask, we'll fill out and submit the HOA approval forms for you, and we don't install until your HOA says yes. Many Triangle HOAs only allow certain colors or heights, so we bring samples that fit your HOA's rules.
Yes, if it's set right. We set posts deep in concrete for the clay soil, and vinyl and aluminum stand up to humidity and summer storms without rotting or rusting.
We follow the same four steps on every job, which we call the Thomas Timeline. 1) Free Consultation: we come out, measure, show you samples and give you a written quote. 2) Contract & Secure: you sign and place a deposit, typically one-third (1/3) of the job total, to lock in your materials and spot on the schedule. 3) Permits & Prep: we handle the permit paperwork, fill out and submit your HOA approval forms if you ask and call 811 to mark underground utilities. 4) Expert Installation: our crew builds your fence, cleans up and does a final walkthrough with you.
Most home fences take 1 to 3 days to build once we start. We typically install about 2 weeks after your permit and HOA approval come through. We'll give you a date when you sign.
You get the manufacturer's warranty on the materials plus our workmanship warranty on the installation, which runs 1 to 5 years depending on the job. If something we built isn't right, call us and we'll come back and fix it.

Thomas Fence offers financing on approved credit for North Carolina projects. The main option is Wells Fargo, with 0% financing for 12 months for qualifying homeowners. Every quote starts with a free, detailed estimate after a consultation, so you know the full cost of materials and installation before you sign.
