Hattiesburg’s Trusted Fence Builder — Quality Fencing for Every Property
When folks in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, start talking about fences, they’re usually talking about two things at once: keeping something in and keeping something out. And around the Pine Belt, both matter. We’ve put posts in the red clay behind homes in Petal and set corners on big commercial lots along Hardy Street, and the work feels different every time. Same heat. Same humidity. Same Mississippi afternoon thunderheads rolling in like clockwork. Different yards, different needs.
You’ll still find us at M & B Fencing building wood fences, chain-link fences, wrought iron fences, aluminum fences, vinyl (PVC) fences, and steel fences for homeowners, businesses, and agricultural properties across Forrest County and nearby towns. Some days, it’s a privacy fence so a family can actually use their backyard. Other days, it’s a pool fence to satisfy safety codes, or a ranch fence to keep livestock where it belongs. Either way, the job starts with a tape measure, a post hole digger, and the sound of a driver thumping posts into the ground. If you’ve never heard that echo across a quiet street, you will.

Wood Fence Construction in Hattiesburg
Wood stays king around Hattiesburg, and there’s a simple reason: it looks right here. A fresh stack of cedar or pine has that clean, sharp smell, and once it’s up, it feels like it’s always been part of the yard. We don’t mess around with flimsy boards. Think thick-cut Western red cedar or pressure-treated pine that can handle Mississippi’s humidity without turning into a sponge.
We build the whole lineup: privacy fence runs with solid boards, classic picket fence lines for front yards, shadow box styles that let the breeze through, and split-rail fences for bigger, more rural properties. The details are what keep these fences standing. Posts go into concrete, lines get squared, and boards get spaced the way they should be, not the way that’s fastest. If you want staining or sealing, we’ll talk through that too, because a little prep now saves a lot of headaches later.
Wood Fence for Hattiesburg Homes and Backyards
Around Hattiesburg and Petal, the most common request is a six-foot privacy fence built from cedar or treated pine. It’s the kind of fence that lets kids run wild, keeps dogs from testing their escape skills, and cuts down on the noise from the neighbor’s mower. We start by walking the property with you, double-checking boundaries, and making sure the fence line plays nice with local rules and HOA requirements.
We had a customer near the University of Southern Mississippi last year who thought their yard was square. It wasn’t. Not even close. We tweaked the layout, kept the lines clean, and by the end of the week, they had a Wood Fence installation that looked like it had grown there. That’s the goal every time.

Chain-Link Fence Installation
If you need something tough and straightforward, chain-link fencing is hard to beat. It’s the most budget-friendly way to fence in a space, and it holds up. We install galvanized and vinyl-coated chain-link in different heights and gauges for homes, businesses, and recreational spaces all over Hattiesburg.
You’ll see these fences around tennis courts, baseball fields, basketball courts, playgrounds, and commercial properties across Forrest County. Some folks want a chain-link fence with privacy slats or a windscreen to block the view without paying for a solid fence. Dog owners usually ask for a bottom rail so their escape artist doesn’t dig out under the line. Fair request. We’ve seen that movie before.
Wrought Iron and Ornamental Iron Fence Building
There’s something about wrought iron that just looks right in front of a home or business. It’s strong. It’s open. And when the sun hits it in the afternoon, it has a way of making a place look finished. We build traditional wrought iron, decorative ornamental iron with finials and scrollwork, and modern steel panel systems that keep the classic look but cut down on upkeep.
You’ll spot iron and steel fences in front yards, around courtyards, by pools, and along storefronts in Hattiesburg. They keep the sightlines open while still saying, “This is the line.” Everyone gets powder coating and rust-resistant finishes, because Mississippi weather doesn’t care how pretty your fence is if you don’t protect it.
Aluminum Fence Installation
If you like the look of iron but don’t want to think about rust, aluminum fencing makes a lot of sense. It doesn’t corrode, it doesn’t flake, and it handles the humidity like it was built for it. Around here, it’s a favorite for pool fence projects, garden borders, and decorative perimeter fencing.
We install aluminum in different heights, colors, and styles, from simple two rail designs to ornamental panels with spear top pickets. A lot of our aluminum pool fences are built to meet Mississippi safety rules, with self-closing gates, self-latching hardware, and picket spacing that keeps kids from slipping through. It’s the kind of detail you don’t notice until you really need it.
Vinyl and PVC Fence Construction
Vinyl fencing, also called PVC fencing, has taken off in Hattiesburg for one big reason: you don’t have to babysit it. No painting. No staining. No sealing. It holds its color, shrugs off heat, and doesn’t warp the way wood can when August hits full blast.
We build vinyl in solid privacy fence panels, semi-private lattice top designs, picket fence styles, and ranch fence rail systems. Colors run from white and tan to gray, and wood grain looks that mimic painted wood or natural cedar. We use commercial-grade PVC with UV inhibitors and titanium dioxide, so it doesn’t yellow or get brittle before its time.
Specialty Fence Building: Pool, Privacy, and Agricultural Fencing
Pool Fence Construction
A pool fence isn’t optional in Hattiesburg. It’s a safety issue, plain and simple. Our pool fence work follows local codes, with the right heights, self-closing gates, and non-climbable designs. Depending on your yard and your budget, we build these in aluminum, wrought iron, vinyl, and mesh. The goal is always the same: keep people safe without turning your backyard into a fortress.
Privacy Fence Installation in Hattiesburg
Ask around in Hattiesburg, Petal, or Purvis, and you’ll hear the same thing: a privacy fence changes how you use your yard. It blocks sightlines, cuts street noise, and makes outdoor space feel like yours again. We build them in wood (both cedar and pine), vinyl, and composite materials, usually six to eight feet tall. Lattice tops, cap and trim, decorative post caps. Those little choices add up.
Agricultural and Ranch Fencing in Forrest County
Out in Forrest County and across the Pine Belt, fencing gets more practical. Farms and ranches need agricultural fence systems that hold up to livestock and protect pasture land. We install split-rail, barbed wire, high tensile wire, horse fencing with no climb mesh, and cattle panels. In places like Lumberton and Sumrall, we also put in deer fencing near wooded areas and wildlife corridors. If it walks on four legs and tries to test your fence, we’ve probably built something to stop it.
Gate Construction and Access Control Systems
A fence without a gate is just a suggestion. We build custom gates in every material we install, from simple walk-through gates to wide double swing driveway gates and automated sliding gates for commercial properties. The hardware matches the fence, the swing is set right, and nothing drags or binds.
For properties that need controlled access, we install access control systems like keypads, remote gate openers, intercoms, and magnetic locks. You’ll see these on gated residential communities, commercial yards, and agricultural properties around Hattiesburg, where managing who comes and goes actually matters.
