Fences and Walls

Whitey and Mac's don't build fences, however we do construct and repair some retaining walls as part of your landscape design and construction work.

Stone, brick, wood and steel fences separate the areas of your property providing privacy, noise control, safety, security, along with activity spaces for members of your family. Fences also provide an opportunity to utilize popular climbing plants such as clematis, climbing roses, honeysuckle, trumpet vine, wisteria, and jasmine. These plants break up the monotony of some walls and fences and turn a possible negative into a positive landscape feature. You can use low walls to create a planter to hold a garden of flowers and herbs. The heat retention of walls can provide the climate conditions some plants need.

There's a wealth of materials and construction techniques you can employ within your fences including brick, mortared stone, block and stucco, concrete, chain link, and wood slats. The beauty of walls is that they don't have the high maintenance costs of other forms of fencing, and they lend an impressive stability to your landscaping.

Wall Construction

Constructing brick walls requires planning and skill as structural integrity is required by law. Issues such as wall thickness and weight and what kind of reinforcement might be needed to keep the wall from shifting due to frost heaving and normal settling. Wall construction and hanging gates within them is a heavy duty type of landscaping project so you'll want us to examine the stability and strength of your ground and ensure you get it done right.
