What we build
Every kind of fence, one crew
From a cedar privacy run to a pasture fence and a driveway gate with an opener: six kinds of work, all set and hung by our own people.
How a fence goes in
From a string line to a finished run
Every fence we build goes in the same way, stage by stage, and you see each one before the next starts.
Prices →- 01
Find the line
The property pins found, 811 called for buried lines, and a string pulled taut where the fence will run.
- 02
Dig the holes
A hole every eight feet, three feet deep and three times the post wide, belled at the foot against frost.
- 03
Set the posts
Each post plumbed both ways and set in concrete, the corners and gate posts first, then the line between.
- 04
Hang the rails
Rails fixed level with stainless screws, stepped on a slope, so every board lands square.
- 05
Fit the boards
Boards spaced or overlapped to the pattern, a cap rail on top, the gate hung and its latch set.
- 06
Stain and clean up
Stained or oiled once the wood is dry, every offcut and spoil hauled, the line walked with you.

Guides
Notes from the fence line
How tall can my fence be?
Heights, setbacks, corner lots, HOAs and permits: what to check before anyone digs, and what we check for you.
Cedar, vinyl or aluminum?
What each one costs, how long it lasts and what it asks of you, from the crew that builds all three.
Staining a new cedar fence
When new cedar is ready for stain, which stain we use, and how to do it so it lasts.
Care notes, four times a year
Short notes from Wes: when to stain, what a wet winter does to a gate, and what to look at along a fence line after a storm.
