PlanurBuild LLC/BCS has been remodeling residential homes since 2003. We are known for taking difficult remodels and working with the customer to do it right. We strive in building relationships one project at a time. We do that by paying attention to the details and using only the highest quality products. When we pick up the products from the vendor, we inspect it to make sure that it meets or exceeds standards. You name it, we've done it. We love remodeling homes whether that be kitchen, baths, basement finishes all the way to fixing structures damaged from pest, water or fire.

"Excellent. The doors and trim are exactly the color and style I wanted. It made a huge difference in the appearance of my home."

FAQs for projects in Dawson, IA

A shadowbox fence arranges boards on alternating sides of the rails with small gaps between them, creating an identical appearance from both sides while allowing some airflow between the boards. Standard privacy fences place all boards on one side with no gaps, creating a solid barrier. The shadowbox design requires more lumber to achieve the alternating pattern, but provides the benefit of an attractive appearance for both the homeowner and neighbors.

Installation timelines depend on the length of your fence, site conditions, and weather factors. Professional fence contractors can complete standard residential projects efficiently, while DIY installations require more time, especially if you're learning the techniques or working alone. Factors like rocky soil, slope challenges, or the need for multiple gates can extend the timeline for any installation project.

Maintenance requirements vary by material choice. Pressure-treated lumber requires the most attention, needing to be stained or sealed every two to three years. Cedar and redwood need treatment every three to five years. Composite and vinyl options require minimal maintenance, with only occasional cleaning needed. All fence types benefit from periodic inspections to address any developing issues before they worsen.

Shadowbox fences perform well in windy conditions because their design allows some air to pass through the spaces between boards, reducing the overall wind pressure on the structure. This partial airflow makes them less susceptible to wind damage than solid privacy fences. For maximum stability in particularly windy locations, ensure posts are properly set according to recommended depths based on your fence height.
