Business Overview
Five Mile Construction serves the Texas Hill Country from San Marcos, TX, offering general contracting, fences & gates, and decks & railing services since 2015. As a licensed and insured contractor, we handle projects of all sizes, from small repairs to new home construction and commercial work. Our team is equipped to build additions, decks, fences, gates, and railings, plus kitchens, guest houses, ADUs, modular homes, and manufactured homes. We’re especially familiar with common local issues like privacy fence blowouts from strong Hill Country winds and chain link fence corrosion in San Marcos’s humid climate. To address blowouts, we reinforce post settings and use wind-rated materials. For corrosion, we install galvanized or powder-coated chain link that withstands moisture. Strategically located near the San Marcos River and Texas State University, we regularly work in neighborhoods like The Bend, Hunter’s Glen, and Blanco River Estates. Whether you need a new deck off your home in Kissing Tree or a secure gate near the downtown square, we provide practical solutions that stand up to local conditions. We focus on craftsmanship and reliability, ensuring every project is built to last.
Q&A
What should I do if my privacy fence keeps blowing over in San Marcos?
Fence blowouts are common here due to strong winds, especially from the south. At Five Mile Construction, we install posts deeper (typically 30-36 inches) with concrete footings and use heavy-duty brackets to anchor rails. We also recommend wind-resistant materials like steel posts or thicker wood pickets with proper gaps. We’ve repaired blowouts in neighborhoods like The Bend and Hunter’s Glen, and our approach keeps fences standing in gusty conditions.
Can you build a deck that fits the look of my San Marcos home near the river?
Yes, we customize deck construction to match your home’s style and the local landscape. We’ve built decks near the San Marcos River and in areas like Blanco River Estates, using materials like cedar, composite, or pressure-treated wood that withstand humidity. We handle design, permits, and installation, ensuring your deck complements your property and resists moisture.
Do you offer remodeling for kitchens or other rooms as part of your general contracting services?
We do offer kitchen remodeling and other interior renovations. As a full-service general contractor, we manage everything from layout changes to new cabinetry, countertops, and flooring. We’ve completed remodels in homes across San Marcos, including near Texas State University. Our team coordinates all trades, so your project stays on schedule and within budget.
