Fence Installation & Repair services in Ypsilanti
Ypsilanti is an older river town, and its fences reflect that. Around Depot Town and the east side, houses from the 1800s sit close together on small lots, often with a shared driveway and a garage tucked at the back. Many of those blocks fall inside the city's historic district, so the style and material of a fence can be reviewed before it goes up. Farther from the river the lots get wider and the houses newer. The Huron River runs through the middle of town and the low ground beside it stays damp, which is hard on wood posts. Rental houses near the university are a big share of our calls here: owners want a plain, sturdy fence that tenants and dogs cannot easily damage. We set every post below the frost line so it stays put through winter.
