Common Questions
What fence materials do you install for homes in Peoria?
We offer custom wood fencing and chain link fencing for both residential and commercial properties. Wood fencing gives a classic look and can be painted or stained to match your home, while chain link is a durable, cost-effective option for security and containment. We also build decks using quality materials. For each job, we recommend a material that fits your property’s needs and the local climate.
How do you handle fence posts shifting due to frost heave in Peoria?
Frost heave is a common issue in central Illinois winters. When the ground freezes and thaws, it can push fence posts up or tilt them, causing leaning fences. To prevent this, we set posts below the frost line (typically around 36 inches in this area) and use concrete footings with proper drainage. For existing fences that are already leaning from frost heave, we can reset the posts and reinforce them to stay straight through future freeze-thaw cycles.
Can you repair or stain an existing fence that is weathered?
Absolutely. We repair gates, replace damaged boards, and fix posts that have rotted or shifted. We also offer fence and gate painting or staining, as well as weatherproofing treatments to protect the wood from moisture, sun, and cold. If your fence is looking tired but the structure is sound, a fresh coat of stain and some minor repairs can extend its life significantly.
