The Fence Lads - Kansas City's Local Residential Fencing

We build decks using pressure-treated wood, composite materials, and cedar. Each project includes a consultation to discuss layout, railing style, and load requirements. We also integrate sustainable practices, such as sourcing locally when possible and using durable fasteners to reduce long-term waste.

Yes, we handle both deck repair and full replacement. If the structure is still sound, we can replace boards, reinforce posts, or update railings. If rot or termites have compromised the foundation, we recommend replacement. We assess each deck in person before giving options.

Kansas City's clay soils expand and contract, which can shift fence posts and deck footings. We use concrete footings sunk below the frost line and select ground-contact-rated lumber for posts. For wood rot prevention, we apply sealants and recommend annual inspections. In neighborhoods like Brookside or Waldo where older homes have established trees, we also reroute post placements to avoid root systems and poor drainage.
