Fence Work in Irondale

Irondale has been a town since 1887, so plenty of homes have fences that are due for replacement, alongside newer projects:

1. Replacing old wood fences that have rotted at the ground line, using ground-contact rated posts set in drained holes
2. New wood fences and privacy fences for backyards that face busy roads or close neighbors
3. Chain link for pets and gardens
4. Vinyl or aluminum for homeowners who want a fence they won't have to stain

Building on Birmingham-Area Clay

Red clay holds water and moves as it wets and dries. Over years, that can push posts out of line. We dig to a depth that suits the fence height, put gravel in the bottom of each hole for drainage, and crown the concrete so rain runs off instead of pooling against the post.

Permits and Utilities

Irondale is its own city, separate from Birmingham, so we confirm the City of Irondale's fence requirements for your address. We also call 811 to mark buried lines before any hole is dug.
