Chain link fence installation is available for both residential and commercial properties. This type of fencing is great for security, durability, and affordability, making it a popular choice for homes, businesses, and even larger properties. The process includes measuring the area, setting strong posts, and using top-quality chain link materials to make sure the fence stands up well to the weather. Every project starts with a free estimate so you can talk about your needs and get a clear idea of costs before any work begins.
Yes, fence repair for damaged or leaning sections is available. It's common to fix things like warped boards, loose posts, or broken panels. Before any work starts, a free estimate can be provided, so you’ll know the expected cost up front. Just reach out by phone, email, or through the online form to set up a time for someone to look at the fence and talk through what needs fixing.
For wood fence installation in rainy weather, cedar pickets are a top choice because they naturally resist rot, insect damage, and warping. For the posts, using PostMaster steel posts instead of traditional wood posts helps prevent issues with rotting and makes the fence more durable over time. Using high-quality pressure-treated lumber for any other frame parts also improves staying power in wet conditions. Putting these materials together gives you a fence that stands up well to rain and harsh Pacific Northwest weather. Regular staining or sealing can make it last even longer.
A typical fence installation usually takes about one to two weeks from the initial estimate to completion, depending on the size of your project and material availability. After you request a free estimate, you’ll get a detailed quote and a timeline for your specific job. Smaller or standard fences can often be finished in just a few days once the work begins, but custom designs or larger projects may take a bit longer.

Before the fence installation crew arrives, clear the area along where the new fence will go. Remove any furniture, garden tools, or decorations nearby. Trim back grass, bushes, or branches so there’s a clear workspace about two feet wide on both sides of the fence line. If you have sprinklers, turn them off before and during installation. Mark any underground utilities or call 811 if you’re not sure where they are. Make sure pets and kids stay safely away from the worksite. If you have questions or special requests, talk with the crew ahead of time so everything goes smoothly when they arrive.

It's important to know where your property lines are before starting a fence project, so we recommend checking your property survey or contacting the county if you're unsure. We can help clarify the typical process and give advice on permits and local guidelines based on where your project is located, but getting official permits or arranging property surveys is generally the homeowner’s responsibility. If you have questions about local rules or need to know what steps to take, we’ll help guide you through what’s required so everything goes smoothly.
Every fence installation comes with a workmanship guarantee to make sure it's done right and built to last. If there are any problems caused by how the fence was installed, like loose boards or misaligned posts, just let us know and we'll fix it. The materials used, like cedar pickets and steel posts, also come with their own manufacturer warranties, so you're covered both for installation and for quality of materials. This way, you get extra peace of mind knowing your fence is protected long after the job is done.

Yes, custom railing installation is part of new deck projects. Railings are important for both safety and style, so they get designed and built to match your deck and fit your specific needs.

Custom railings are built to last and made to stand up to the weather in our area.
Of course, help is available for choosing the right fence height and layout for privacy and security. Standard fence heights usually range from 4 to 6 feet. For most backyards, a 6-foot fence gives solid privacy and good security, while front yard fences are often kept lower, around 4 feet, due to local rules. There’s also the option to customize the fence layout and design based on your needs, property shape, and how much of your yard you want blocked from view. Local guidelines and neighborhood codes can also affect fence height and style, so it’s important to talk about where the fence will go and what you want to achieve—extra privacy, blocking noise, keeping pets in, or improving safety. An in-person consultation and free quote can include suggestions on the best materials, styles, and fence height for your specific property.
