Fencing in Rockwood
Practical chain link, cedar privacy, and sturdy gates for the postwar blocks between Stark Street and the Blue Line.
Rockwood grew up around the ten-mile marker on old Baseline Road, and it has been a working neighborhood ever since. The fencing that makes sense here is the kind that earns its cost: chain link that holds a dog and outlasts the mortgage, cedar that buys privacy on a corner lot, gates that latch right the thousandth time. We quote in plain numbers, show up when we said, and leave the yard cleaner than we found it.
Chain link and cedar, priced straight
For a lot of homes off 181st and 188th, galvanized chain link is still the smartest dollar in fencing, and we build it with top rail, tension wire at the bottom, and posts set deep enough that a leaning shepherd cannot loosen them. Black vinyl-coated mesh costs a bit more and disappears into a green yard. Where you want privacy instead, a good-neighbor cedar fence, finished the same on both faces, splits the view fairly with the folks next door. Both come with gates built on welded steel frames rather than bolt-together kits. On corner properties near the busier crossings, we recommend keeping the street side low or open, which helps sight lines at the intersection.
Gate work and repairs near the MAX
Plenty of fences in this part of Gresham are decades old and need a gate rehung or a run patched, not a full replacement. We do that work gladly. A crew can swap rotted posts along an otherwise sound cedar line, restretch sagging mesh, or fit a new drive gate where the old chain link one dragged a groove in the concrete. Landlords with duplexes and fourplexes between Burnside and Halsey call us to standardize latches and add self-closing hinges so tenants stop propping gates open. Walk your fence line, note what bugs you, then dial (503) 555-0187. Estimates cost nothing, and if a repair will do the job, that is what we will tell you.
We cover the rest of the city too: see our Gresham fence company page for services, permit rules and the neighborhoods around you.
