Who builds it

Teddy walks the line before anyone digs

Most fence problems start before the first hole: a corner guessed at, a slope ignored, a gate placed where the truck has to back in. Teddy walks the property line with you first, marks the corners and gate spots, and says plainly what the lot needs.

Everything after that is ordinary craft — posts deep enough for Pee Dee soil, rails cut square, hardware rated for weather that swings from August heat to a hard January night.

What we build

Wood, iron, and chain link that suit the lot

Four kinds of fence, one standard of setting. Tell us what the yard has to do — hold a dog, hide a pool, close a work site, or dress a brick entrance — and we will say which system fits.

Wood privacy fence

Cedar or pressure-treated pine, dog-ear or board-on-board, stepped or racked to follow the grade.

  • Posts set below frost line and backfilled
  • Ring-shank fasteners, no staples on pickets
  • Gate posts upsized where a swing gets heavy

Ornamental iron

Spear-top or flat-top panels between brick or stone columns, racked for driveways and rolling front yards.

  • Powder-coated panels, hidden fastener rails
  • Column sleeves and mount plates sized on site

Chain link

Galvanized or black vinyl-coated mesh for kennels, ball yards, storage lots, and equipment pads.

  • Top rail or top wire, braced corners and ends
  • Double-drive gates for truck and trailer access

Gates & repairs

Sagging gates, leaning corners, storm-broken sections, and hardware that quit — repaired without replacing the whole run.

  • Gate re-hang, anti-sag bracing, new latches
  • Post resets where rot or a vehicle got there first
  • Section matching to the fence you already own
Order of work

From property line to final gate swing

Four stages, in this order, every job. Nothing gets skipped because the weather looks good.

01

Walk the line

We meet at the property, find the corners, talk about the plat if the boundary is tight, and mark where gates make sense for mowers, trailers, and trash day.

02

Locates and layout

Utilities get called in before a bit turns. Then the run is laid out with string and paint so you can see the fence on the ground before it exists.

03

Set posts, let them cure

Holes dug to depth, posts plumbed on the line, concrete where the system calls for it. Panels wait until the posts are solid — that is what keeps a line straight in year five.

04

Hang, adjust, clean up

Panels or pickets go on, gates get set to swing level and latch on the first try, offcuts and dirt piles leave with us, and we walk the finished line together.

Easiest way to start

Leave a number, keep your Saturday

No forms full of questions and no email thread. Type ten digits, and Teddy calls back to sort out the details himself.

  • One field — your phone number, nothing else
  • Say what the job is only if you feel like it
  • Estimates are walked on site, not guessed online
Around the county

Marion knows the fences we leave behind

He showed up, walked the back line with my husband, and told us where the gate ought to go instead of where we asked for it. He was right.

Homeowner · Marion, SC

Sixty feet of chain link around the equipment pad, braced and gated for the trailer. Two days, no mess left in the gravel.

Shop owner · Mullins, SC

Storm took out four sections. He matched the old pickets close enough that you have to hunt for the repair.

Who shows up

A small crew, one accountable name

You are not handed to a call center or a rotating sub. The same outfit that quotes your fence is the one setting posts in your yard.
