Q&A

How quickly can you install a fence in Des Moines once I call?

Once permits are obtained and underground utilities are marked, we schedule installation promptly. Our goal is to beat the typical 10-week wait that frustrated Russell when he started the company. Typical residential fence installations in Des Moines can be completed within a few days to a week after site prep.

Do you handle both fence repair and full replacement for Des Moines homes?

Yes, we offer fence repair, replacement, and weatherproofing. If your existing fence is leaning, rotting, or damaged, we can assess whether repair or a full replacement is more cost-effective. We also recycle all old materials to keep waste out of local landfills.

I'm near the Des Moines River and my fence posts are rotting. What's the best solution?

For properties near the river or in areas with high moisture, we recommend pressure-treated lumber or composite materials for posts and rails. We also apply weatherproofing sealants to extend the life of your fence. If rot is extensive, a full replacement with proper drainage and post bases will give you the longest-lasting results.
