At First Peak Contracting, we help you choose fencing materials that offer strength, longevity, and visual appeal — all while complementing your home and surrounding environment.

We use galvanized and powder-coated metal components where needed for added strength and resistance to moisture and corrosion — especially useful in exposed or low-lying areas.
Wire & Chain Link
Sturdy and functional, wire fencing and chain link are ideal for large lots, pet enclosures, and utility fencing where visibility and affordability matter.
