| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Wood & Privacy Fence Installation | From $24/ft | Wichita's wide ranch lots and new subdivisions run long and flat, so a privacy fence catches the full force of the wind with nothing to break it. We set posts deep past the reach of the shifting clay and brace every corner and gate for load, whether it's cedar in College Hill or treated pine out toward Maize. |
| Vinyl & PVC Fence Installation | From $35/ft | Wichita's wide ranch lots run fence line straight into open wind with nothing to slow it down, and our clay soil heaves posts loose season after season. We set posts deeper and closer together than catalog spec calls for, then hang solid vinyl panels that shrug off gusts and hail without cracking or fading. |
| Chain Link Fence Installation | From $14/ft | Chain link still makes sense on the tight lots of the old wartime-era neighborhoods southeast of downtown and on acreage where budget matters more than privacy. We set line posts to handle Kansas wind gusts and terminal posts strong enough for gates and corners. |
| Aluminum & Ornamental Iron Fencing | From $39/ft | Ornamental aluminum and iron fit the older brick and shaded lots of College Hill and Riverside, and hold up to Wichita wind without the flat surface a solid fence gives the wind to push against. Powder-coated finishes shrug off the hail and humidity swings that come with spring storms. |
| Fence Repair | From $425 | Wichita's clay soil swells and shrinks through the year, and that's what leans posts and racks gates long before the boards wear out. We diagnose whether it's a post problem, a wind-loosened panel, or storm damage, and repair only what's actually broken. |
| Storm Damage Fence Repair | Free damage assessment | Spring in Wichita means straight-line wind and hail that can take out a whole run of fence in one storm. We assess the damage fast, document it for insurance, and rebuild the sections that failed rather than charging for a full replacement you don't need. |
| Fence Post Repair & Replacement | From $425 | Post failure is the most common fence problem in Wichita, driven by expansive clay soil that swells wet and shrinks dry and works a post loose year over year. We reset or replace posts at the depth and spacing this soil actually requires, not the minimum. |
| Gate Installation & Repair | From $445 | Wichita clay swells and shrinks with the seasons, and that movement is what throws gate posts out of plumb and drags gates off their latch. Add spring wind that catches a gate broadside and hardware failure follows fast. We reset posts plumb, rebuild the swing, and rehang hardware built to take Kansas wind. |
| Automatic & Driveway Gates | From $2,600 | Long driveways in newer subdivisions and out on acreage make good candidates for an automatic gate, but the opener and posts both have to handle wide-open Kansas wind. We install systems built to keep working through the weather, not just on install day. |
| Pool Fence Installation | From $31/ft | Wichita's flat, open yards mean a pool is visible from every angle, and wind-driven storms can rattle a loose gate fast. We build to the height, picket gap and latch placement your local inspector checks, with the gate swinging outward and closing on its own every time. |
| Fence Replacement & Removal | From $2,100 | When a fence is too far gone from wind, rot, or clay-soil movement, patch repair stops making sense. We remove the old line, including buried posts and old concrete footings, and build the replacement with the depth and bracing this soil requires. |
| Fence Staining & Restoration | From $850 | Wichita's sun and swinging humidity gray and crack wood fast, especially on the south and west-facing runs common on the city's wide, flat lots. We clean, brighten, and reseal the wood so it sheds water and holds color through the next round of Kansas weather. |
| Commercial & Temporary Fencing | Free site quote | Job sites and commercial properties around Wichita need fencing that goes up fast, stays put in the wind, and meets whatever the site actually requires, from temporary panel fencing to a permanent perimeter line. We quote on site and work around your schedule. |
| Farm & Ranch Fencing | From $10/ft | Past the Wichita county line it's open farm and ranch country, with long field-line runs, livestock to contain, and nothing to slow the wind down. We build to the run, not just the property line, with post spacing and bracing sized for wide-open exposure and working ground. |
