    Fencing That Last

    A quality fence is one of the smartest investments you can make for your Des Moines home. It instantly boosts privacy, enhances security, defines your property boundaries, and adds curb appeal that increases resale value. At Green Thumb Outdoor Solutions, we design and install custom fences that meet your specific needs — whether you want a tall wood privacy fence to create a backyard oasis, a low-maintenance vinyl fence that looks great year after year, a practical chain link fence to keep pets and children safe, or an elegant ornamental iron fence that makes a statement. We understand Iowa's unique climate challenges, from strong winds and heavy snow loads to ground movement during freeze-thaw cycles. That's why every fence we build uses quality materials, properly set posts, and construction techniques engineered for long-term durability. We serve homeowners throughout Des Moines, Ankeny, West Des Moines, Urbandale, Johnston, Clive, Waukee, Altoona, and all surrounding Central Iowa communities. Call (515) 943-3174 for your free fence quote.

    Iowa fences battle strong winds, heavy snow loads, and seasonal ground movement. Quality materials must handle moisture, and construction must allow for natural wood expansion and contraction. We build fences engineered for our climate, not generic installations that fail in a few years.

    Fence Types We Install

    From traditional wood privacy to modern ornamental iron, we build every style with precision, quality materials, and expert craftsmanship.

    Wood Fencing

    Classic cedar and pressure-treated wood fences deliver timeless beauty, natural privacy, and customizable style. Wood fencing can be built in dozens of designs — from traditional dog-ear privacy to modern horizontal styles — and stains beautifully to match your home. It's the most popular choice for Des Moines homeowners who want warmth and character.

    Ideal for: Privacy, backyards, traditional homes, custom stain finishes

    Vinyl Fencing

    Vinyl fencing offers the clean, crisp look of painted wood without any of the maintenance. It never needs staining, won't rot or warp, and cleans up with just a hose. Available in white, tan, and gray with privacy and picket styles, vinyl is perfect for homeowners who want a beautiful fence with zero upkeep.

    Ideal for: Low-maintenance living, modern homes, pool enclosures

    Chain Link Fencing

    Chain link is the most cost-effective way to secure a large area. Galvanized and vinyl-coated options resist rust and blend better with landscaping than standard silver. It's durable, low-maintenance, and ideal when function matters more than aesthetics — keeping pets safe, marking boundaries, or securing commercial properties.

    Ideal for: Large yards, pet containment, budget-conscious projects

    Ornamental Iron

    Ornamental iron and aluminum fencing delivers elegance, security, and incredible durability. These fences add sophisticated curb appeal to front yards, gardens, and estates while providing a strong physical barrier. Powder-coated finishes resist rust and come in classic black, bronze, and white to complement any architectural style.

    Ideal for: Front yards, gardens, pools, premium curb appeal
