Company Background
Eldridge Fencing has served Great Bend, Kansas, and the surrounding region since 1994. What began as a specialized fencing contractor has grown into a full-service fencing superstore with an on-site showroom and in-house fabrication shops. The company works with vinyl, aluminum, and steel fencing, sourcing products from brands known for durability and low maintenance. Every installation and repair comes with manufacturer-backed warranties. Beyond fences and gates, Eldridge Fencing builds, repairs, and replaces decks and railings. They also offer painting, staining, and weatherproofing for fences and gates. For homeowners who enjoy outdoor cooking, the business carries Traeger and Primo grills plus a selection of accessories. Their fabrication capabilities allow them to serve over 70 fencing companies across three states, while still providing direct, personalized service to local residents. Located near the intersection of 10th Street and Kansas Highway 96, Eldridge Fencing is a short drive from the Great Bend Municipal Airport and the Cheyenne Bottoms Wildlife Area. Local homeowners often deal with high winds, shifting soil, and wood rot. Eldridge Fencing addresses these issues by recommending vinyl or steel fencing for wind resistance, using deep-set posts for stable foundations, and applying weatherproofing treatments to extend the life of wood fences and decks. Their repair team can quickly replace damaged sections or reinforce gates that sag under constant Kansas wind.
FAQs
How do you handle fence repairs for wind damage common in Great Bend?
Strong winds can loosen fence posts, bend aluminum panels, or crack vinyl. Our team inspects the entire fence line, reinforces posts with concrete in deep holes, and replaces any warped or broken sections. For vinyl fences, we use thicker gauge material that withstands gusts better. We also check gates, which often sag after repeated wind exposure, and adjust hinges or install tension cables to keep them aligned.
What’s the difference between aluminum and steel fencing for a residential yard?
Aluminum fencing is lightweight, rust-resistant, and requires little maintenance—ideal for front yards or pool enclosures. Steel is stronger and more affordable, but it needs periodic painting or galvanizing to prevent rust. We carry both, and our showroom lets you see the difference in person. If you need a fence that stays cool to the touch in Kansas summers, aluminum is the better choice.
Can you replace just a few rotted deck boards, or do I need a full deck replacement?
We often replace individual boards, especially if the rot is isolated. We match the wood type and stain as closely as possible. However, if the rot has spread to joists or the ledger board, a full replacement may be safer and more cost-effective in the long run. We’ll do a free inspection and give you honest options.
