Family owned since 1983
About Athens Fence Co
Athens Fence Co has built, repaired and automated fences and gates across North Alabama for over four decades, working out of the same address on US-31 the whole time. This is the short version of who does the work and what we hold ourselves to.
Four decades on the same road
Athens Fence Co has worked out of the same address on US-31 in Athens since 1983. Jason Gee runs the company today the way it was built: as a family business, not a franchise, serving North Alabama one property line at a time. Over four decades in, the shop is still small enough that the person who measures your yard is the same person the office calls if the schedule needs to move.
Ask around Athens and Huntsville and the names come up before the company name does. Glenda handles the office and takes payment once a job wraps. John Hand walks the property and writes the estimate, measuring the line the way it will actually be built rather than rounding to the nearest fifty feet. T.J. answers most of the repair calls, the shifted gate or the storm-snapped panel that needs a fix rather than a whole new fence. Daniel and the installation crew set the posts and hang the gates on new work. It is a short list of people doing the same jobs they have done for years, and customers across this part of Alabama tend to know at least one of them by name.

What we hold ourselves to
The company's own standard covers what a homeowner cannot see once the job is done. Every post goes into concrete, whatever the fence is made of, because a driven post is the first thing to lean after a wet Alabama winter. Wood jobs use number 1 grade lumber, not a mixed grade that looks fine on delivery day and splits within a season.
- 1 year workmanship warranty on every job we complete.
- Free estimates, normally back within a week of the visit.
- Calls and emails answered within 48 hours.
- Military discount on all fencing and gate work.
