Who we are

We Build Fences That Stay Plumb

We set every post below Iowa's frost line, crown the concrete, and leave the yard cleaner than we found it. One shop at 3000 Scott Ave in Des Moines — when we say we serve Ankeny or Waukee, we drive there from that address.

What we stand for

How We Treat Your Yard and Time

Quality

Deep posts, straight lines, hardware that lasts an Iowa winter.

Integrity

We tell you when a repair will not hold and when you should wait.

Reliability

We show up when we say we will and we call you back.

The plan

Four Steps From Walkthrough to Done

1

We walk your property line

You tell us what you need — privacy, pets, curb appeal, security. We measure, check grades and utility locates, and explain your options with no pressure.

2

You get a clear plan and price

A written estimate with materials, layout and timeline spelled out. No hidden fees. You decide when — or if — you want to move forward.

3

We build it right and clean up

Posts below frost line, crowned concrete, straight lines. We haul away the old fence and debris, and walk the finished job with you before we leave.

Risks of waiting

A Cheap Fence Gets Expensive Fast

Leaning posts pull neighboring panels out of line until whole sections need replacing

Rotted rails and pickets turn a cheap repair into a full rebuild

Shallow-set posts heave more every winter — the fix costs more each year you wait

A failing fence means escaped pets, disputes with neighbors, and a hit to your home's value
