I remember the winter that pushed a lot of West Bloomfield jobs off schedule. The ground stayed hard, the wind cut across open lots, and a few sites sat exposed long enough to collect damage before crews even got rolling. After that 2007 stretch, we started hearing the same thing from builders all over town: they needed site fencing that went up fast, held steady, and didn’t turn into another problem when the weather turned messy. That’s the kind of work Orchard Lake Site Fencing was built around.
We’ve been out in West Bloomfield since 2008, and our crew knows how this area behaves. The neighborhoods around West Bloomfield Town Center, Walnut Woods, Deerfield Village, Wabeek, and Simsbury all have their own jobsite quirks, from tight access along newer developments to open edges that catch a hard gust off Pine Lake. A lot of the local housing stock comes from that 1980–2000 era, so we’re used to working around the bigger lots, the clean sightlines, and the need to keep a site looking controlled while work keeps moving.
Jamal Washington built this company around practical field standards, not theory. With AFA Certified Fence Professional training, OSHA 30-Hour Construction Safety Certification, and a State Contractor License in hand, he’s spent years making sure our crew sets fencing the way it needs to be set: straight, anchored, and ready for real site conditions. We think about wind load, soft shoulders after rain, traffic flow, and whether the crew still needs easy access for deliveries and inspections.
The climate here matters, too. West Bloomfield gets about 12.8 inches of annual precipitation, and the low flood-zone risk helps, but rain still softens edges, muddies entrances, and makes sloppy installs fail early. We pay attention to that because we’ve seen what happens when a fence goes in too fast without checking the grade or the runoff path. That’s why we talk through site layout, the access points, and the protection plan before we unload the first panel.
