About PNW Fence & Gate

Who We Are

PNW Fence & Gate is a local company committed to bringing dependable service and long-lasting craftsmanship to homes throughout Chehalis, Centralia, Lewis County, Thurston County, JBLM/Lakewood, and surrounding communities. We focus on clear communication, honest pricing, and a process that feels simple from start to finish.

We’re a fully registered Washington State business with a team that understands both the terrain and the expectations of our community. Every fence we install is measured with precision, built with care, and backed by our dedication to quality. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions; we build fences that match the needs of the land and the goals of each homeowner.

No matter if it’s a cedar privacy fence, a lasting steel system, or an automatic gate, we take pride in serving our local area.

Built for the Pacific Northwest

Anyone who lives in the PNW knows how much the environment can test a structure. Between saturated clay soil, seasonal winds, and nearly constant moisture, a fence needs far more than just basic installation.

That’s why we prioritize:

  • True 5/8” premium cedar
  • American-made vinyl, steel, and hardware
  • Moisture-resistant fasteners
  • Posts set deep and stabilized for long-term support
  • Techniques tailored to prevent heaving, leaning, or premature wear

We build every fence with longevity in mind. The result is a cleaner look, stronger structure, and better value over time.

Meet the Owner — Tallon Ball, Owner & Lead General Contractor

Tallon Ball grew up in Lewis County and knows the Pacific Northwest’s land and weather better than most. He graduated from Centralia College. Then, he worked in the timber and construction industries for over 20 years. Those decades of hands-on experience taught him how materials behave, how soil shifts, and what it takes to build structures that last.

Before starting PNW Fence & Gate, Tallon worked directly with the same cedar, steel, and hardware he uses today. His background helps him understand the small details that make a fence strong—how deep a post should sit, how moisture affects wood over time, and which materials hold up best in our climate.

As Owner and Lead General Contractor, Tallon is involved in every stage of a project. He trains the crew, checks installation quality, and ensures homeowners receive clear, honest information from the start. Tallon believes in doing the job right, even when no one is watching. His guiding principle has always been simple:

“Under promise, over deliver.”

Tallon also values ongoing learning. He attends industry training events, including AFA’s FENCETECH conference, to stay current with new installation methods and gate automation technology. This helps him bring modern, reliable solutions to every project.

Outside of work, Tallon is a family-oriented person and an active member of the local community he serves.
