Our Fence Styles & Materials

Choose the fence type that best fits your needs and home aesthetic in Des Moines.

Wood Fencing for Classic Warmth

Wood fences bring natural warmth and character to Des Moines neighborhoods like Sherman Hill and Linden Heights. They work for privacy, split-rail ranch style, or decorative picket designs. Our team uses treated lumber and sets posts in concrete for strength against Iowa winters.

Wood requires periodic staining or sealing to prevent rot and weather damage. We can handle all finishing work to keep your fence looking fresh.

Vinyl Fencing for Low Maintenance

Vinyl offers durable, fade-resistant privacy in a range of colors. Homes in Waterbury and Greenwood often pair vinyl with landscaping for polished curb appeal. It won't rot, warp, or need staining—just an occasional rinse.

Vinyl stands up well to Des Moines weather. UV-protective compounds keep the color true, and modern profiles replicate wood grain without the maintenance.

Aluminum & Ornamental Iron for Elegance

Aluminum and ornamental iron fences suit upscale Des Moines properties and front yards where aesthetic matters. They're lightweight yet sturdy, and come in classic black, white, or custom finishes that complement any home architecture.

These materials resist rust and require minimal upkeep. Powder-coated finishes handle Iowa's temperature swings without chipping or fading.

Chain Link for Budget & Function

Chain link fences work well for residential areas of Des Moines where you need secure containment without breaking the budget. Galvanized or vinyl-coated options both resist corrosion.

Good for pet yards, garden perimeters, and properties where visibility is desired. Simple to install and repair if needed.

Why Quality Fencing Matters

A well-built fence is an investment in safety, privacy, and property value—one that lasts decades when done right.

Built to Handle Iowa Weather

Des Moines experiences temperature swings, spring wind gusts, and heavy snow. We set posts deep in concrete and use materials proven to withstand these conditions without shifting or failing.

Proper post depth and concrete volume prevent frost heave—a common fence problem in northern climates.

Adds Value & Curb Appeal

A attractive, well-maintained fence boosts property value. Neighbors across Des Moines—from Haines Park to Indianola Hills—understand that quality fencing reflects care and investment in the home.

Whether selling or enjoying your home for years, good fencing pays for itself in appeal and functionality.

Safety & Privacy for Your Family

Fencing keeps children and pets safely contained. It also blocks traffic noise and creates a private retreat for your household to relax and entertain.
