Detailed Fencing Information

Our Approach & Expertise

Wood fencing remains popular for its natural beauty, versatility, and value. We install various wood fence styles including privacy fences, picket fences, split-rail fences, shadowbox fences, and custom designs. Our wood fence installations use pressure-treated lumber for posts and framing that resists rot and insects, with options for fence boards including pressure-treated pine, cedar, and redwood. Cedar and redwood offer natural rot resistance and beautiful appearance that weathers to attractive silver-gray or can be stained to maintain color. We install wood fences with proper post setting in concrete, adequate spacing, secure fastening, and attention to details that ensure straight, attractive installations.

Privacy fences create secluded outdoor spaces, block unsightly views, reduce noise, and provide security. We install privacy fences 6 to 8 feet tall using closely spaced vertical boards, solid panels, or overlapping shadowbox designs. Our privacy fence installations include sturdy construction that resists wind loads, proper post spacing, horizontal rails for support, and quality materials selected for longevity. We can incorporate lattice tops for additional height with enhanced aesthetics, decorative post caps for visual interest, and gates for convenient access.

Vinyl fencing provides low-maintenance alternatives that never need painting or staining. Modern vinyl fencing offers realistic wood-look textures or clean contemporary styles in white and various colors. Vinyl fencing resists rot, insects, fading, and weathering while maintaining appearance for decades. We install vinyl privacy fences, picket fences, rail fences, and ornamental styles using quality vinyl products with structural aluminum reinforcement. Our vinyl fence installations include proper post setting, manufacturer-approved assembly techniques, and attention to level, plumb installation that looks professional and performs reliably.

Quality & Craftsmanship

Chain link fencing delivers economical, durable solutions for security, pet containment, and property definition. We install residential and commercial chain link fencing in various heights and gauges, with options for vinyl coating in colors including black, green, and brown that enhance appearance while protecting from corrosion. Chain link applications include perimeter fencing, pool enclosures, dog runs, tennis courts, commercial security fencing, and temporary construction fencing. Our chain link installations include proper terminal posts, line posts, top rail, and tension systems that create tight, professional installations. We install privacy slats in chain link when privacy is desired while maintaining chain link's durability and economy.

Ornamental metal fencing provides elegant, durable options for properties where appearance is paramount. We install aluminum and steel ornamental fencing in styles ranging from simple to elaborate, creating impressive boundaries that enhance curb appeal while providing security. Ornamental fencing is ideal for front yards, pool enclosures, commercial properties, and anywhere visual appeal matters. Aluminum fencing offers rust-free performance, while steel provides maximum strength and security. Both are available in numerous styles, heights, and powder-coated colors. Our ornamental fence installations include proper post setting, level installation, and secure assembly.

Split-rail and farm fencing creates rustic, open boundaries perfect for large properties, farms, and country settings. We install traditional split-rail fences using locust or cedar rails that resist rot, as well as modern vinyl split-rail alternatives. Split-rail fencing defines property lines and contains livestock while maintaining open, pastoral aesthetics. We can add wire mesh to split-rail fencing for small animal containment while preserving the traditional appearance.

Materials & Methods

Pool fencing and enclosures meet safety code requirements while protecting children and pets from accidental pool access. We install code-compliant pool fencing with proper height, self-closing gates, self-latching hardware, and appropriate spacing between pickets or mesh that prevents climbing. Pool fence options include ornamental aluminum, vinyl, glass panels, and mesh systems. We understand local pool fencing codes and ensure installations meet all safety requirements.

Gate installation provides convenient fence access. We install pedestrian gates and vehicle gates with proper sizing, sturdy construction, smooth operation, and reliable latching. Gate options include single gates, double gates, and cantilever or rolling gates for driveways. We install gate hardware including hinges, latches, locks, closers, and automated operators for motorized gates. Our gate installations ensure gates hang properly, swing or slide smoothly, and latch securely.

Fence repair restores damaged or deteriorating fences. We replace broken fence sections, repair or replace posts, fix sagging gates, replace damaged rails or pickets, and reinforce weak areas. Our repair services extend fence life and restore appearance and functionality. We provide honest assessments about when repair is cost-effective versus replacement.

Your Satisfaction Guaranteed

Proper post installation is critical to fence longevity and performance. We set fence posts in concrete to proper depth based on frost line and fence height, ensuring posts resist frost heaving and wind loads. Posts are set plumb and aligned accurately, creating straight fences. We allow adequate concrete cure time before continuing fence installation, ensuring posts are firmly anchored.

Fencing for slopes and uneven terrain requires special techniques. We install step-down fencing that follows slope in level sections or racked fencing where panels follow grade. Our experience with challenging sites ensures attractive, properly installed fences regardless of terrain.

Commercial fencing applications include security fencing, parking lot fencing, dumpster enclosures, equipment screening, and perimeter fencing for businesses, schools, municipalities, and industrial facilities. We install commercial-grade fencing meeting security requirements while enhancing property appearance. Our commercial fence services include gates with access control hardware, bollards for vehicle protection, and specialty applications.

Stain and sealant application protects wood fences and enhances appearance. We offer stain and sealant services using quality products that protect wood from moisture, UV damage, and weathering while maintaining or enhancing natural beauty. Regular maintenance extends wood fence life significantly.

All our fence installations are backed by our commitment to quality workmanship. We use quality materials, proper installation techniques, and attention to detail that delivers fences that look great and perform reliably for years.
