You need fencing that stands up to weather, contains livestock, and clearly marks property boundaries without constant repairs. Fencing in West Monroe includes perimeter fencing for residential and commercial properties, agricultural fencing for livestock operations, and specialized enclosures designed for durability and function. Miller Contracting installs fencing built to handle the demands of rural and suburban properties in this area.


Installation begins with marking the fence line, setting posts in concrete or compacted soil, and attaching wire, boards, or panels based on the intended use. Your fence will stay upright and secure because posts are set to the correct depth and braced at corners and gates. Agricultural fencing uses materials and spacing appropriate for the type of livestock being contained, whether cattle, horses, or smaller animals.

Details That Matter Most

When you schedule fencing installation, the crew arrives with post drivers, augers, wire stretchers, and the materials specified for your project. Posts are installed first, aligned to the fence line and spaced according to the type of fencing being built. You'll see each post checked for plumb and set with concrete or tamped soil depending on ground conditions.

After installation, your fence will define property lines, contain animals, or provide security without sagging or leaning. Miller Contracting uses materials and techniques suited to the intended purpose, whether you need barbed wire for cattle, woven wire for horses, or privacy fencing for residential use. From perimeter fencing to livestock enclosures, our fencing services are built to last.

Gates are installed with heavy-duty hinges and latches that operate smoothly and hold up under daily use. This service includes corner bracing and tension adjustments to prevent sagging over time. Fencing does not include landscaping or grading work, but posts can be set in uneven terrain with proper planning.

Why Locals Choose This Option

Property owners in West Monroe frequently ask about fencing materials, post spacing, and what type of fence works best for their specific needs before starting a project.

What type of fencing is best for livestock?
Barbed wire works well for cattle, while woven wire or board fencing is better for horses. The choice depends on the size and behavior of the animals you're containing and the level of visibility you need.
How deep should fence posts be set?
Posts are typically set two to three feet deep depending on soil type and fence height. Corner and gate posts require deeper placement and concrete to handle additional stress and leverage.
Why do some fences sag over time?
Sagging usually results from inadequate corner bracing, posts set too shallow, or wire that wasn't stretched tight during installation. Proper tension and bracing prevent this issue.
How long does fencing installation take?

Most residential or small agricultural projects in West Monroe are completed within a few days. Larger properties or complex layouts with multiple gates and corners may require additional time.

What maintenance does fencing require?
You should inspect fencing annually for loose wire, leaning posts, or damaged sections. Tightening wire and replacing damaged components extends the life of the fence and prevents larger repairs later.

Fencing installation requires attention to post placement, material selection, and tension to deliver a fence that performs for years without constant adjustments. The right fence for your property depends on its purpose, the terrain, and the level of durability you need. Get in touch to schedule a consultation and discuss your fencing project in West Monroe.
