LOCAL CONDITIONS
How Military Relocations and Kansas Weather Shape a Fort Leavenworth Install
1
PCS timelines don't negotiate with concrete cure times.
A 36-inch wet-poured concrete footing needs 48 hours minimum to cure before panels go on. That's non-negotiable, even on a tight military relocation timeline. We stage the install with that in mind: posts on day one, panels on day three, gate hardware same day as panels. If your PCS move-in is on Friday, we can usually have a chain-link containment fence in place by Thursday and a full cedar privacy run in place the following Tuesday. What we won't do is rush the concrete cure — that's how fences lean within a year.

Leavenworth County rock conditions require drilling planning.
The Fort Leavenworth area sits on the "Leavenworth Rock" — limestone shelf often showing up 12-18 inches below the surface. We bring a rock drill on every Fort Leavenworth-area estimate and plan post depth around the bedrock, not through it. Where we can hit the full 36-inch Kansas frost-line depth in soil, we do. Where bedrock blocks the hole, we use anchored surface-mount with epoxy-set fasteners rated for the load. Either way, the fence holds. RKC installs and repairs every type of fence — wood, vinyl, chain link, ornamental iron, aluminum, and commercial security — plus gates, automatic openers, and in-house staining.

Fort Leavenworth Conditions
Does RKC install fences inside the Fort Leavenworth gates?
Our work around Fort Leavenworth is typically off-post — the homes and rentals in Leavenworth and Lansing city limits where military families live between, or instead of, post housing. On-post installations are governed by post housing authority regulations and specific approved-vendor programs. If you have an on-post project and need to know whether we can support it, call Josh at (913) 286-1091 — we can walk through the access and spec requirements before committing to an estimate.
Can RKC install a Fort Leavenworth fence on a PCS timeline?
Yes, within reason. We've done rapid-turnaround installs for families arriving at Fort Leavenworth with pets in the vehicle and no fence yet. Chain link is the fastest option — typically 1-2 days start to finish. Cedar privacy runs 3-4 days including the 48-hour concrete cure. We ask for 1-2 weeks of scheduling lead time to batch crews efficiently, though we do our best to accommodate tighter PCS windows when possible. Call us early in your HHG process and we'll fit your install into the schedule.
What makes military-family fence installs different?
Three things. First, turnover awareness — we build for the next occupant as much as the current one, since military families move on 2-3 year rotations. Second, spec compliance — some post-housing-adjacent rentals and HOAs specify approved materials, and we match those rather than guess. Third, schedule precision — PCS timelines don't flex, so we commit to dates and hit them. Every install still goes to 36 inches below the Kansas frost line in poured concrete, regardless of the turnover timeline.
Scope & Logistics
Is the Fort Leavenworth area on RKC's regular schedule?
Yes. The Fort Leavenworth, Leavenworth, and Lansing run is about an hour north on K-7, batched with Basehor work on the same route. Same Kansas City fence contractor standard on every install: 36-inch post depth where soil allows, poured concrete, in-house staining, owner-operated oversight. 400+ fences installed across the metro since 2021, 4.9 stars from 77+ Google reviews.
Does RKC handle every fence type for military-family installs?
Yes. Despite the Wood Care Pros name, we install and repair every type of fence — wood, vinyl, chain link, ornamental iron, aluminum, privacy, and commercial security — plus gate installation, automatic gate openers, gate repair, and in-house staining and sealing. The most-requested types for Fort Leavenworth-area families are chain link (fastest), cedar privacy (best all-around value), and vinyl (lowest long-term maintenance for rental conversions). We handle all of them at the same standard.
Does RKC offer financing for military families?
Yes. We offer flexible financing with plans including 0% intro APR on approved credit through GreenSky. The application runs about 5 minutes online. Financing is optional and doesn't change the quoted price — it's there if the cash-up-front number is tight against a PCS relocation budget.
