Wood Fences project completed by Metro Mowing Services and Maintenance LLC in Gaston OR

A wood fence is one of the first things people see when they look at your property, and it's one of the fastest ways for a property to look either cared for or neglected. A fence built right — posts set deep in concrete below the frost line, rails level, boards plumb, fasteners rated for the weather — stays straight and sturdy for a dozen Oregon winters. A fence built wrong leans within a year. We build cedar and pressure-treated wood fences in Gaston and across the Portland Metro Area the way they should be built the first time.

We've built fences across the Portland Metro Area since 1998 — more than 25 years — so we know exactly what Oregon's wet winters and clay soil do to a fence. The clay holds moisture around a post all winter and heaves with freeze-thaw, which is why we dig below the local frost line, set posts in concrete with gravel drainage at the base, and use ground-contact pressure-treated posts that stand up to it. Cedar rails and boards resist the wet naturally, and every fastener is rated for outdoor use so it doesn't bleed rust down the wood.

We build in the style you want — solid privacy, shadowbox, or spaced picket — and we string the line and set each post and board plumb so the fence looks like a fence should, not a wave. Gates are built and hung to stay square, because a sagging gate is the telltale sign of a fence that wasn't built right. We also repair and replace damaged runs and gates, matching your existing fence as closely as the material allows, so a repair doesn't look like a patch.

A fence is an investment in your property — privacy, safety for kids and pets, a clean boundary — and like any investment it's worth doing right the first time. We give you clear, written pricing with materials and labor included, so there are no line-item surprises after the build. And because we do it all — fences, walls, lawns, hardscapes, and field mowing — you can handle your whole property with one local crew instead of juggling contractors.

Problems We Solve

Fence Problems We Fix for Local Property Owners

Leaning, sagging fence lines

We set posts in concrete to the right depth so frost and wind don't push them over.

Rotting posts and rails

We use ground-contact pressure-treated posts and cedar rails that resist Oregon's wet.

Gaps and uneven boards

We string the line and set each board plumb so the fence is consistent, not wavy.

Storm-damaged sections

We replace damaged runs and match the existing fence instead of patching it visibly.

FAQ

Wood Fences in Gaston — Common Questions

Questions about our wood fences work in Gaston and the Portland Metro Area, OR.

Cedar or pressure-treated — which is better?

Cedar looks better and resists rot naturally; pressure-treated posts in concrete give the strongest base. We often use both — treated posts with cedar rails and boards. We'll recommend what fits your budget.

How deep do you set fence posts?

Below the local frost line, in concrete with gravel drainage at the base. That's what keeps a fence from heaving and leaning through Oregon winters.

Can you match my existing fence for a repair?

Yes. We replace runs and gates to match your current fence as closely as the material allows.

Do you build gates too?

Every fence includes properly hung and adjusted gates, built to stay square so they don't sag.

How long does a fence build take?

Most residential fences are a few days of work after posts cure. We'll give you a timeline with the estimate.
