Fence Extensions and Height Additions

Extensions that add height, lattice or privacy to existing fences, plus lengthening runs and closing gaps, built on your existing posts when they are sound.

Sometimes the best fence is the one you already have, with a little more added. A new neighbor, a taller dog or a new pool may call for more height or more privacy. Owners in Nashville ask us to extend existing fences with lattice, boards or panels and to lengthen runs, close gaps and match the original style so the result looks planned.

We begin with a Free Estimate and inspect the existing fence, posts and footings. We explain whether the posts can carry a taller panel, how wind load changes and where local height limits apply. We match styles and materials, add taller posts or post extenders where needed and attach extensions securely. We can also extend a run, build a return or close an opening so the new work blends in. Extensions are a smart way to adapt a fence without starting over. The key is making sure the existing posts can carry the added height and wind load, and matching the new work so it looks like part of the original. We inspect carefully and tell you honestly when a rebuild would be a better value.

Check the structure

Taller panels catch more wind, so we check that posts are sound and footings are adequate before adding height.

Match the look

Lattice, board or panel extensions can match or complement the existing fence.

Add posts if needed

Where posts are short or weak, we add taller posts or install new ones alongside.

Lengthen and close

New sections tie into the existing fence neatly, with returns and gates where needed.

How much height can I add?

It depends on local rules and the structure. We help you plan within limits.
