Fence Installation & Repair services in Barberton
Barberton was laid out in the 1890s as a planned factory town, with Lake Anna at its center and a grid of streets around it. A large share of the houses date from the decades when the match, boiler and chemical plants were hiring, so the typical lot is narrow and deep, with an alley or a rear garage and a neighbor a few steps away. Fences here are short runs with a lot of corners. Old steel posts set in small concrete plugs are common, and they come out before anything new goes in. The Tuscarawas River and the old canal bed keep the low parts of town damp, and fill from the industrial years turns up under some lawns. A fence in Barberton is mostly about a dog, a small private yard and a gate that clears the alley.
