Where can I buy fence materials in Cedar Rapids?

Fence materials in Cedar Rapids, IA are essential in the building of a residential or commercial barrier. One also needs construction knowledge (there’s more to dependable fence post installation than simply drilling holes), information regarding utility locates, detailed schematics of what lies beneath the surface (imagine the resultant costs of drilling a hole into your sprinkler system!), and manpower (a fence put together by a team of experienced professionals will naturally reach completion sooner than one in a solo job).

Much goes into a successful construction project, but no matter the experience or number of installers, nothing happens without the right supplies. Whether you’re a licensed fence contractor or an ambitious DIYer, inventory must excel in both quality and quantity. Which means you shouldn’t just purchase from anyone. Whether you live in Cedar Rapids or a nearby community—Dubuque, Homestead, Tiffin, Waterloo, etc.—only give your business to a contractor with a proven history.

Enter American Fence Company.

Where can I buy fence materials in Cedar Rapids?

For the past 55 years, we’ve developed and nurtured the industry’s best practices and connections, which are taught to and rigorously followed by all new recruits. As the top fence contractor in Cedar Rapids, we’ve also expanded our itinerary to services beyond installation. Our many divisions—to name a few: PalmSHIELD, American Access Company, Patriot Custom Metals, and American Playground Company—have made us leaders in the fields of automatic gates, access control, and architectural screening. And that’s to say nothing of our fence materials inventory.

American Fence Company of Cedar Rapids uses only prestige stock in our products. To achieve this, in our 55 years, we’ve formed professional relations with esteemed vendors. We don’t limit transactions to within the United States or even North America, instead collaborating with suppliers worldwide. For example: vinyl is currently the most in-demand fence type. Both residential and commercial clients favor PVC for its inherent beauty and low maintenance requirements. Easy to clean, engineered to last, and difficult to damage (breaking the surface requires an exceptional amount of force—such as a car crash or a rock thrown by the lawnmower), PVC requires less upkeep than wood fencing.

But only if the vinyl is of prestige quality! For this reason, American Fence Company buys from PVC manufacturers with a similarly proven track record in their industry. One of these manufacturers is PlyGem, a subdivision of Cornerstone Building Brands, itself “the leading exterior building products company.” PlyGem rigorously tests its products to ensure durability and consistent performance no matter the climate. This is integral for our Cedar Rapids fence customers, as the weather here tends to be sporadic. Unpredictable summers swinging between calm and blistering hots; winters prone to dry spells and blistering cold. Our high-quality vinyl products can withstand said temperature changes with the most minimal of change—just a slight increase in flexibility when the temperature’s freezing.

Why a fence company? I can get supplies at a big box store for less!

The thing to remember is you’re sacrificing quality. While the big box stores charge less, their fence materials tend to be of flimsy grade, not terribly long-lasting. In fact, you’ll likely find your fence falling apart much quicker, sustaining greater amount of damage after storms, and requiring frequent upkeep. Before long, you’ll be replacing fence parts, then whole panels, maybe even the entire fence. You’ll probably end up spending far more in the long run than you if you’d worked with a reputable contractor from the start.
