Chain Link Fences
Chain link fencing works well for pet areas, backyards, commercial lots, and long practical runs where visibility, durability, and budget control matter.
Ronnie Custom Fence serves Appling County, Georgia and its county seat of Baxley with custom fence installation, repair, gates, and farm fencing. We build wood privacy, vinyl, chain link, aluminum, and ornamental fences for homeowners and businesses, plus long boundary, livestock, and field-fence runs for the timber tracts and farms that define this part of Southeast Georgia.
Appling County is timber and farm country. Pine plantations, vegetable and row-crop farms, and cattle operations sit on well-drained loamy-sand uplands that make for good post-setting, with poorly drained clayey floodplain soils near the Altamaha River to the south. That mix means we plan each fence to the actual ground - straightforward deep-set posts on the uplands, and careful drainage and material selection near the river bottoms.
Permitting in Appling County splits by jurisdiction. The Appling County Board of Commissioners office in Baxley handles inquiries for unincorporated parcels, while the City of Baxley issues its own building permits separately within city limits. We verify which authority applies to your property and confirm fence requirements before any layout begins.

What fencing is best for farms and timber tracts in Appling County?
For long boundaries, livestock, and timber-tract perimeters, high-tensile wire, woven wire, barbed wire, and chain link cover distance affordably and handle the rolling, sandy uplands. We brace terminal and corner posts so long agricultural runs stay tight over the years.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Appling County?
It depends on jurisdiction. Unincorporated parcels are handled by the Appling County Board of Commissioners, while the City of Baxley issues its own permits within city limits. We confirm the correct authority and current requirements before layout.
How do the soils near the Altamaha affect fence installation?
Appling County's loamy-sand uplands set posts well, but the poorly drained clayey floodplain soils near the Altamaha hold water and need extra care. We set posts deep with drainage and choose corrosion-resistant materials for low, wet ground so the fence holds its line.
Can you build residential fences in town as well as farm fencing?
Yes. Alongside agricultural fencing, we install wood privacy, vinyl, aluminum, and chain link fences plus custom gates for homes and businesses in Baxley and across Appling County.
