Questions and Answers
What’s the typical process for a custom wooden fence installation?
We start with a free consultation to discuss your needs and property lines. Then we design the fence, choose materials (cedar, pine, etc.), and provide a quote. Installation usually takes 1-3 days depending on length. Our crew handles all post holes, framing, and finishing touches, and we clean up thoroughly.
Can you install a gate as part of my new fence?
Absolutely. We install all types of gates—walk gates, driveway gates, and double gates. Gates are built to match your fence style and can be fitted with latches, hinges, and even automatic openers if desired. We ensure they swing smoothly and stay aligned over time.
How do you protect wooden fences from St. Louis’s humid summers and freeze-thaw cycles?
We use pressure-treated lumber for posts and kiln-dried cedar or pine for pickets, which resist moisture better. We also apply a high-quality sealant or stain after installation. Proper drainage and gravel at post bases prevent water pooling and rot. Our team inspects annually to catch any issues early.
