    Built for Des Moines: Localized Solutions

    Building in Des Moines, WA, requires more than just digging holes. We tailor our installation methods to address the unique environmental and zoning factors of our area.

    • Combating the “PNW Rot”: The soil in King County stays damp for much of the year. We utilize pressure-treated posts or galvanized steel “PostMaster” systems to ensure your fence posts don’t rot at the ground line, doubling the life of your wood fence.
    • Navigating Sloped Terrain: Many Des Moines properties sit on hills leading down toward the water. We specialize in “racked” and “stepped” fence installation, ensuring your fence hugs the ground securely without leaving gaps for pets to escape.
    • Wind Resistance: Being close to the water means dealing with high winds. We set our posts deep in high-PSI concrete to ensure your fence stays standing when the winter storms roll in.
    • Zoning Compliance: We are familiar with Des Moines municipal codes regarding fence height and property lines, helping you avoid fines or neighbor disputes.

    • Warranty on Craftsmanship: We stand behind our work. If something isn’t right, we come back and fix it.
    • Clean Job Sites: We treat your yard with respect, ensuring all debris, dirt, and old fencing is hauled away, leaving your space spotless.

    Customer Success Story: The Hillside Challenge

    The Problem: The Johnsons, living near Saltwater State Park, had a major issue. Their backyard had a steep slope, and their old fence had collapsed after a heavy windstorm. They needed a secure area for their new puppy, but other contractors were hesitant to work on the difficult grade.

    The Monkey Fence Solution: Our team assessed the terrain and proposed a “stepped” cedar fence design using steel posts for maximum wind resistance. We carefully mapped the property line to ensure compliance with local easements. Despite the rain, our crew completed the installation in three days.

    The Outcome: The Johnsons now have a sturdy, beautiful fence that “steps” elegantly down their hill. The steel posts have held firm through two winter storms, and their puppy plays safely in the yard. The Johnsons left us a 5-star review, stating, “Monkey Fence didn’t just build a fence; they solved a problem no one else wanted to touch.
