Fencing 101

Why Fence and Rail Installation by a local company Is superior

When you're investing in a fence for your home, farm, or business, credentials matter — but so does local expertise. Loudon County Fence has proudly served East Tennessee for over 50 years. We’re not part of a national franchise, and that’s exactly what sets us apart. Founded in 1973 and operated by veteran U.S. Navy Seabee Bill Morris, our company is built on values like craftsmanship, honesty, and doing the job right the first time. Bill and his wife Amanda, along with their dedicated team — many of whom are also military veterans — have turned Loudon County Fence into one of Tennessee’s most trusted names in fencing.

Here’s the problem with national franchises: many were founded in states like Florida — a place that couldn’t be more different from Tennessee in terms of soil, slope, and weather. Florida is flat, sandy, and wet — and that means fences there are installed using entirely different techniques, tools, and materials. What works in Miami or Orlando simply doesn’t hold up in Knoxville, where we deal with clay-heavy soil, hilly terrain, and freeze-thaw cycles that challenge even the best-built fences. A fence installer trained to follow a cookie-cutter operations manual from a flat coastal climate has no business telling Tennesseans how to build something that lasts in the mountains.

That’s why our fence and rail solutions are truly superior — not just in quality, but in how they’re adapted to our region. We use tried-and-true methods based on decades of experience with local conditions. Whether it’s a wood privacy fence for your backyard, a chain link enclosure for your business, or a heavy-duty agricultural installation, Loudon County Fence doesn’t guess—we know what works here, because we’ve lived and worked in this soil for generations.

We also carry an Unlimited Contractor’s License, a credential few fence companies in Tennessee can match. This qualifies us for major commercial projects and secure federal facilities, and proves that we meet the highest standards for financial responsibility, technical ability, and professionalism. So before you trust a franchise to build your fence, ask yourself: do they really understand Tennessee? Or are they just trying to apply a Florida manual to an Appalachian landscape?
