Fence & Gate Company in Peru, IA | Clanton Creek Fence & Gate

The freeze-thaw cycle in Iowa can shift soil and loosen fence posts over time, causing them to lean or pull out of the ground. At Clanton Creek Fence & Gate, we solve this by using concrete footings and digging deep post holes below the frost line. We also recommend pressure-treated or steel posts for long-lasting stability. If your posts are already leaning, we can reset them properly to prevent the problem from coming back.

Absolutely. Sagging gates are common in Peru, often due to heavy use or wind stress. We can adjust hinges, add a diagonal brace, or install a tension rod to pull the gate back into shape. If the gate frame is rotten or bent, we'll reinforce it with new hardware or replace just the gate section. No need to tear down your whole fence.

For livestock like cattle or horses, we often recommend high-tensile wire or woven wire fence. These are strong, low-maintenance, and can handle the wind and weather around Peru. For smaller animals, we install chain-link with tight mesh or board fencing. Our team will assess your property—whether it's near Middle River or out by the gravel roads—and choose the right materials to keep your animals contained safely year-round.
