Q&A
How does West Construction handle corroded fence hardware for homes in Harvard's climate?
In Harvard, the combination of road salt in winter and humidity in summer often causes fence hardware to rust and fail. We assess existing damage and replace corroded parts with stainless steel or galvanized components that resist rust. We also check post bases and gate hinges for structural stability. Our team is familiar with local building codes, so any replacement or new install around neighborhoods like the Harvard Historic District meets city requirements and stands up to our freeze-thaw cycles.
Does West Construction install fences for multi-family housing or mixed-use developments?
Yes, as a general contracting and development firm, we handle fencing for larger projects such as multi-family housing and mixed-use developments. This includes privacy fences for townhome complexes, security gates for commercial spaces, and ornamental ironwork for mixed-use properties near downtown Harvard. We coordinate with architects and local permitting offices to ensure compliance with zoning and safety standards, even for complex projects that involve historical preservation guidelines.
Can West Construction help with fence repairs on older properties near Harvard's historic square?
Absolutely. We have experience with historical preservation projects and understand the materials and styles common in older Harvard homes near the historic square. For fence repairs, we match existing designs and use period-appropriate hardware when possible. If corrosion or wood rot is present, we can reinforce or replace sections while preserving the property's character. Our team also ensures any repairs meet current building codes without compromising the aesthetic.
