Why RKC

Your fence should outlive the next KC storm — not the other way around.

Kansas City gets 50+ days a year with 25+ mph winds and 80+ freeze-thaw cycles.

That is not background weather — it is the test your fence has to pass. Budget operators set posts too shallow, skip concrete footings, and use the wrong hardware on gate hinges. You see the result every March: leaning runs, broken rails, cracked vinyl, sagging gates.

We build every fence like it has to survive one more decade than the roof.

36-inch post depth below frost line. Bell-bottom concrete footings. Galvanized ring-shank nails or stainless hardware on every panel. Diagonal cross-bracing on every gate. Our 15-person crew does this on every job — not just when a homeowner is watching.

KC Metro Cities

Not a pickup-truck operation

15-person crew, real equipment

Two-person fence crews lean on shortcuts. Our 15-person operation runs multiple crews per day, carries full liability and workers comp on every installer, and finishes most residential fences in under three days.

Built for KC weather

36-inch posts, bell-bottom footings

Johnson County clay and 80+ freeze-thaw cycles break shallow posts. We dig every post to 36 inches below the frost line and pour concrete in a bell-bottom shape so frost cannot lift it.

Transparent about tradeoffs

We tell you what we don't do

We do not set posts in dirt. We do not skip concrete. We do not use the cheapest hinge on a double-drive gate. If an HOA requires a specific stain we might not apply, we tell you before you sign — not after.

"Josh and his crew replaced 180 feet of cedar privacy fence after a spring storm took ours out. Posts went in deeper than the original builder's, concrete at every one, and they hauled off every scrap. Three days start to finish, exactly what the estimate said. Best fence on the block."

See the full FAQ →
Does RKC Wood Care Pros only do wood fencing?
No. The name is the brand — the business is a full-service fence and gate company. We install, repair, and maintain every fence type serving Kansas City: Western Red Cedar and pressure-treated wood, UV-stabilized vinyl, galvanized and vinyl-coated chain link, powder-coated ornamental iron and aluminum, and commercial security fencing. We also build and repair gates, install LiftMaster automatic gate openers, and stain and seal existing fences.
How deep should fence posts be set in the Kansas City area?
The KC metro frost line sits between 30 and 36 inches, so every post we set goes below that — typically 36 inches for 6-foot wood and vinyl fencing, deeper for 8-foot runs and gate posts. We use a bell-bottom footing technique with concrete to anchor the post and resist frost-heave. Skipping this step is the number-one reason fences lean after the first freeze-thaw cycle in Johnson County clay.
How much does fence installation cost in Kansas City?
A typical 150-foot 6-foot cedar privacy fence runs between $3,500 and $7,000 installed, depending on grade, terrain, and gate count. Vinyl privacy runs $4,800–$9,800 for the same footage. Chain link is the lowest-cost option at $1,800–$4,200. Ornamental aluminum and iron start around $4,500. Every estimate is free and itemized — we do not hide post-setting or demo charges.
Do I need a permit to install a fence in the KC metro?
Most cities in the KC metro require a permit before a fence is installed, and the rules differ by municipality. Olathe, Overland Park, Lenexa, and Leawood all require permits and enforce height limits — typically 6 feet in the rear yard and 4 feet in the front. Kansas City MO uses the CompassKC portal with a 3–4 week review window. We handle permit paperwork as part of every job, so you do not have to chase city hall yourself.
How fast can RKC get a fence installed?
A typical residential install runs 1–3 days of on-site work once permits clear and materials arrive. From the day you approve the estimate, most projects start within 2–4 weeks in shoulder season and 4–6 weeks during the spring storm-repair rush. Storm damage repairs get priority scheduling.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. RKC Wood Care Pros is fully licensed and insured in Kansas and Missouri, with general liability and workers compensation coverage on every crew member. We hold an A+ rating with the BBB and carry a 4.9-star rating from 77+ Google reviews.
