Fern Hill has some of the oldest homes in Tacoma, and older homes mean older fences that have seen better days. If you've been searching for a fence company in Tacoma, WA that understands historic neighborhoods and tight lot lines, you've landed in the right spot. We've worked across the South End for 17 years, and we know how to match new construction with the character of a 1920s Craftsman just as well as we know how to install a clean chain link run behind a newer build. Your property deserves better than a generic install from a crew passing through town.
Why Local Experience Matters
A lot of fence contractors treat every job the same way. Goodrow's Fence & Deck takes a different approach because Fern Hill isn't like other neighborhoods. The lots near South 84th and Park Avenue sit close together, and the yards backing up toward the business district often have mature trees with root systems that complicate post placement. We walk your property before we quote anything because guessing from satellite images doesn't cut it here. Our team is veteran-owned, fully licensed (GOODRFL896OK), bonded through North River Insurance, and insured for both residential and commercial work.
Fence Styles That Fit Your Home
Cedar, vinyl, iron, and chain link. We install all of them, and we do it with attention to what actually looks right on your lot. Fern Hill has a mix of Georgian revival homes, mid-century ranches, and newer construction, so a one-size approach doesn't make sense. If you want a cedar fence that complements the historic vibe of your block, we can build it. If you need something more functional to keep your dogs contained, we handle that too.
Pet Owners Get Extra Help
Dogs and fence projects create problems. Your yard's wide open, the gate's off, and your pup has nowhere safe to run. We bring a temporary kennel so your dog gets outdoor time while we work. When the job's done, we pack it up and take it with us. Simple fix that saves you a real headache.

About Fern Hill, WA
Fern Hill sits in Tacoma's South End, tucked between Pacific Avenue and I-5 just north of Parkland. It's one of the city's oldest neighborhoods, with roots going back to the 1880s when the Fern Hill School first opened its doors. The central hub at South 84th and Park Avenue anchors a small business district, and three parks sit within a few blocks of the main strip. Families here attend Tacoma Public Schools, and the quick access to I-5 and SR-512 makes commuting straightforward for anyone working in Tacoma, Lakewood, or further north.
