FAQs
Can you build a custom metal gate or fence for my property near downtown Gervais?
Yes. We custom fabricate metal fences and gates to match your property’s needs. Whether you want a secure driveway gate near the Gervais City Park or a decorative fence along a residential lot, we handle the design, fabrication, and installation. Our team can also combine metal with wood or other materials for a unique look.
I need my deck repaired after the last winter storm – do you serve homes in the Gervais area?
Absolutely. We offer deck repair, design, and construction for homes in Gervais and surrounding communities. If your deck has rotted boards, loose railings, or structural issues from the wet Willamette Valley winters, we can assess the damage and restore it safely. We also work with both wood and composite materials.
How do you handle common local fencing issues like rot or leaning posts in Gervais’s soil?
Many Gervais properties have clay-heavy soil that can cause wooden fence posts to rot or lean over time. For new installations, we set metal posts or use pressure-treated wood with concrete footings to improve stability. For existing fences, we can replace damaged posts and reinforce the structure. Our metal fabrication capabilities also allow us to create custom bracing or replace sections with durable steel panels that resist moisture damage.
