Lake Highlands, Dallas
Do you work in Lake Highlands?
We do. Lake Highlands is in northeast Dallas, southeast of our shop at 6523 Wickerwood Dr, and we build fences, gates, decks, patios and outdoor kitchens there for homes and businesses. Fence replacement, motorized gates and pergolas are the jobs our Google reviewers bring up most.
With dozens of separate subdivisions, Lake Highlands doesn’t have one standard lot, so every fence starts with a free visit to measure, check the fence line and talk through materials.
Lake Highlands service area
Which Lake Highlands neighborhoods do you serve?
Every one, including the L Streets, Merriman Park Estates, Lake Highlands Estates, Lake Highlands North, Highland Meadows and Moss Farm. The area spans ZIP codes 75231, 75238 and 75243. If you’re unsure whether you’re in range, phone (972) 277-1658 with your address.
White Rock Lake borders Lake Highlands on the south, and I-635 cuts through it from southeast to northwest. Richland College sits inside the neighborhood.
Kids here go to Richardson ISD or Dallas ISD schools depending on the street, but every address is inside Dallas city limits, so the City of Dallas handles fence permits.

What can we build for a Lake Highlands home?
Cedar privacy fences in board-on-board or horizontal styles, iron and aluminum fences, and new gates are the core. Behind the house, we build decks, covered porches, concrete and paver patios, pergolas and outdoor kitchens, and we fix drainage when water pools in the yard.

FAQ
Lake Highlands FAQ
Can you add a deck to my Lake Highlands house?
Yes: wood decks, pool decks, and decks combined with a patio or covered porch. A deck can be planned with a new fence and pergola so heights and materials line up. Our deck page has photos.
Can you fix standing water in my yard?
Yard drainage is part of what we do, along with retaining walls and stone masonry. We look at where the water collects and where it can go, then build the fix into the rest of the project if you’re adding a patio or fence.
Which ZIP codes are Lake Highlands?
75231, 75238 and 75243. Note that 75243 also reaches into Far North Dallas, which we serve too, so you’re covered either way.
What does a free estimate include?
A visit to your Lake Highlands property, measurements, a walk of the fence line or project area, and a talk about styles and materials. After that we send a quote. There’s no charge and no obligation.
