Westland sits on wide-lot post-war and 1970s housing stock across western Wayne County, and those generous properties mean mature trees, privacy fences, and the occasional gate that needs attention after a hard season.
When a fence runs down in a storm, a gate drags on its hinges, or you need a solid privacy barrier to match the neighborhood character around you, Detroit Fence Pros handles the job with the same crew from start to finish. We have served Westland and the Detroit area since 2010, and we know the fencing and gate challenges that come with properties like yours in ZIP 48185.
Fencing and Gates in Westland (48185)
Westland homeowners typically work with generous lot lines and established neighborhoods where a fence does real work: privacy from neighbors, a secure perimeter for property, a finished look that matters. The housing stock here ranges from classic brick ranches to solid 1970s colonials, and a well-chosen fence complements that character. Whether you want the warmth of a wood privacy fence, the durability of vinyl, the economy of chain link, or the ornamental appeal of aluminum or iron, the right fence starts with honest site assessment and materials picked for your actual use and budget.
We have been installing, repairing, and replacing fences in Westland and throughout the Detroit area for over a decade. Our crews are fully insured, and we are AFA Member Installers through the American Fence Association. We work from your survey, pull permits where the city requires them, and coordinate with Westland's building department on setback, height, and material rules that apply to your property.

How a Fence or Gate Job Works in Westland
Step 1: You call us at (313) 513-0521 or reach out online. We schedule a free on-site assessment. We look at the fence line you identify, check the existing posts and rails, measure the run, discuss what you want (privacy, containment, appearance, durability), and talk budget. No pressure, no sales pitch. If storm damage or a leaning fence brought you to us, we document what we see and help you gather information for an insurance claim if that applies.
Step 2: We give you a clear estimate with a price per linear foot (for new fence) or a flat rate (for repairs, gates, or removal). If you say yes, we schedule the work. Before we dig any post holes, Michigan law requires an 811 utility locate to mark gas, electric, and water lines. We handle that call. Then we set posts in concrete at proper spacing, install rails and stringers, hang pickets or panels, and finish with cap and trim. For gates, we hang them plumb and level, install hinges and latches, and test the swing. For automatic gates, we install the operator and test the safety features. If it is a replacement job, we remove the old fence and haul it away.
Step 3: We clean up the site, walk the finished fence line with you, and make sure everything is solid and looks right. You get a local contractor who stands behind the work, not a franchise crew that moves on to the next job.
