🚧 CEDAR DOUBLE GATE REBUILD TIMELAPSE 🚧

Sometimes it’s the details that make the biggest difference.

Watch this cedar fence double gate go from worn and tired to strong, functional, and built to last. Gates often see more daily use than any other section of a fence, which means proper construction matters just as much as appearance.

This rebuild focused on:

✔ Strong framing for long-term durability
✔ Proper alignment and smooth operation
✔ Quality cedar for natural beauty and performance
✔ A clean, finished look that matches the surrounding fence

A gate should do more than simply open and close — it should operate smoothly, hold up over time, and complement the entire fence system.

Watch the full timelapse and see this transformation come together from start to finish.

🟦 DO FENCES REQUIRE PERMITS?

Many homeowners are surprised to learn that the answer is often yes.

Most fences must meet local requirements involving height limits, setbacks, and visibility rules — especially on corner lots where sight lines become a safety concern. What is allowed in one area may not be allowed in another.

Requirements can vary significantly between Sioux Falls, Brandon, Harrisburg, and surrounding rural townships. Details like property lines, easements, utility locations, and municipal regulations can all affect your project.

The goal isn’t simply to install a fence — it’s to install one correctly the first time.

A properly planned fence helps avoid unexpected issues, delays, costly changes, and future headaches.

Local knowledge matters because every project starts long before the first post goes into the ground.

This project was a lot of fun!

The process actually started last August with an initial conversation with the homeowners. After months of planning, designing, engineering, and fine-tuning the details, everything was finally ready to go. Once winter loosened its grip and the ground thawed, construction began.

We started by removing the existing deck, then installed four massive footings—each 30 inches in diameter and 60 inches deep—to create the foundation for a deck engineered to support the weight of a hot tub.

The finished result? A true "party deck" featuring a hot tub, large outdoor TV, SONOS smokeless fire pit, and plenty of room for dining, entertaining, and making memories with family and friends.

We couldn't be happier with how this one turned out.

Much credit belongs to the homeowners for having a clear vision of what they wanted their outdoor space to become. As builders, we can only build to the extent that our customers dream. Our job is to take those ideas, combine them with sound engineering and quality craftsmanship, and bring them to life.

We're grateful they trusted Babb Deck & Fence with their vision, and honored to have been part of creating a space their family and friends will enjoy for years to come.

PS... want a new deck this year? Hurry up because we are already booking September!

How Protecting Your Pools, Pets, and Privacy Can Actually Improve Neighbor Relationships

You've probably heard the phrase:

"Good fences make good neighbors."

It's one of the most quoted sayings when discussing property lines and fencing. While some people hear it and think it sounds unfriendly, the truth is that the saying has endured for generations because there is a lot of wisdom behind it.

A well-designed fence isn't about keeping people out.

It's about creating clear boundaries, reducing misunderstandings, and allowing everyone to enjoy their property comfortably.

At Babb Custom Deck & Fence, our mission is simple:

Protecting Your Pools, Pets, and Privacy.

And when done thoughtfully, those goals often lead directly back to the idea that good fences really do make good neighbors.

🏡 Privacy fencing isn’t about closing the world out — it’s about creating a space that feels like your own.

Your backyard should be a place where you can relax, spend time with family, let the kids play, enjoy your pets, or simply unwind at the end of the day.

A well-built privacy fence creates more than a boundary — it creates comfort.

Benefits of a quality privacy fence:

✔ Creates a more private and comfortable outdoor environment
✔ Adds security and peace of mind for children and pets
✔ Enhances curb appeal and defines your property
✔ Creates an outdoor space that feels personal and inviting

But like any investment around your home, the details matter. Proper post depth, quality materials, and professional installation determine how your fence performs for years to come.

Because the best fences do more than separate properties — they help create a place that truly feels like home.

Outdoor kitchens add serious value — but only when they’re built with materials designed for the environment they live in.

Heat, moisture, UV exposure, rain, snow, and seasonal temperature swings can quickly take a toll on materials that weren’t made for outdoor use. That’s why a great outdoor kitchen isn’t just about appearance — it’s about durability and long-term performance.

✔ Weather-resistant materials built for year-round exposure
✔ Surfaces designed to handle heat, moisture, and heavy use
✔ Functional layouts that improve cooking and entertaining flow
✔ Long-term value through quality construction and smart design

A properly built outdoor kitchen becomes more than a place to grill — it becomes the center of your backyard. A place where meals are prepared, conversations happen, and memories are made.

At Babb Custom Decks, we believe outdoor spaces should be designed to do more than look impressive on day one. They should continue performing season after season.

Because the right outdoor kitchen isn’t just an upgrade to your backyard — it’s an investment in how you live and enjoy your home.

One of the most common questions we hear at Babb Custom Deck & Fence is:
"When can you start?"

Closely followed by: "How long will it take?"

Those are fair questions—and we understand why homeowners ask them. When you're excited about a new deck, fence, pergola, or outdoor living project, it's natural to want a firm start date and completion date.

The challenge is that construction isn't like ordering a product from a warehouse.

Every project involves dozens of moving parts, many of which are outside of anyone's control.

The reality is that scheduling outdoor construction projects can be surprisingly complex.

☀️ The best decks don’t just look good — they’re built right.

A beautiful composite deck may catch your attention on day one, but what really matters is how it performs years later.

Because long-term value doesn’t come from boards and railings alone — it comes from what’s underneath and how it’s built.

The details matter:

✔ Proper footings designed for long-term stability
✔ Correct fasteners that ensure structural integrity and clean installation
✔ Manufacturer-approved installation methods for performance and warranty protection
✔ Quality craftsmanship focused on durability and safety

Composite decking gives homeowners the benefit of low maintenance and long-term beauty, but even the best materials can underperform if installed incorrectly.

A quality deck builder understands that proper spacing, framing, and installation methods aren’t optional details — they’re what ensure your deck performs season after season.

Because a great deck isn’t just built to impress today — it’s built to last tomorrow.
