FENCING IN PONTIAC
Security, Older Housing and Commercial Lots
Many Pontiac homes are older and their fences have outlived several owners: rusted chain link, leaning wood and posts that frost has pushed out of the ground. We remove the old fence and footings, verify the line, and set new posts 42 inches deep in concrete so the new fence stays put. For landlords, vinyl and galvanized chain link keep maintenance close to zero between tenants.
Historic neighborhoods may have design expectations for front yards, and most Metro Detroit cities limit front-yard fences to about 3–4 feet; we confirm your lot’s rules with the city building department before quoting. For commercial and industrial sites we build taller chain link with heavier posts and drive or rolling gates, and can add privacy slats. Ornamental aluminum and cedar round out residential work.
