Tony’s Fencing and Iron Works is your fencing contractor for New Orleans, LA and the surrounding metro area. We are based in Ponchatoula on the Northshore and travel to New Orleans and the Southshore for fencing and ironwork projects — particularly larger jobs, custom ornamental iron, automatic gate systems, and commercial work.
With over 30 years of experience serving Southeast Louisiana, we know what materials hold up in the New Orleans climate — the heat, humidity, salt air, and occasional flooding that other contractors from outside the region may not account for. Every project comes with Tony’s personal guarantee. If it does not meet our standards, we fix it.

New Orleans presents unique challenges for fencing — high humidity, salt air near the lake and river, occasional flooding, and intense UV exposure year-round. Ornamental iron with a quality rust-inhibiting finish is the most durable long-term option. Vinyl is excellent for low-maintenance residential fencing and holds up well in the humidity. Cedar wood fencing works well but requires regular maintenance to hold up in the New Orleans climate. We can walk you through the best option for your specific property during your free estimate.
Yes. The City of New Orleans requires a permit for most fence installations. Height limits and setback rules apply and vary by zoning district — historic districts in particular have strict guidelines on fence materials, height, and style. We recommend checking with the New Orleans City Planning Commission or your local zoning office before starting any fence project in the city.
