ColorMax Steel Metal Fence Installation in Mercer Island, WA

This Mercer Island homeowner was finishing construction on a new house, and the fence around the property hadn't kept up. The old wood fence was falling apart, sections had holes in them, the front gates were coming apart at the joints, and the backyard behind it had grown over with bushes. With kids and dogs to think about and a brand new home to match, they needed something that would close the property off properly, look like it belonged with the house, and not need work again in a few years.

We started with a full inspection and walkthrough of the fence line, then went over material options together. They chose ColorMax steel in Woodland Grey, a coated metal system that doesn't rot, warp, or need staining the way wood does. We installed 340 linear feet with two gates over five days. The ground sloped and ran uneven in places, so we closed off every gap along the base with pressure treated bottom boards, which matters when there are dogs in the yard. The finished fence gives the property full privacy and security, stands up to Washington weather without maintenance, and looks like it was part of the house plan from the start.

The completed project came to $30,500 for the full perimeter replacement.
