Flagpoles in Fayetteville

A university city built on Ozark slopes at the south end of the Northwest Arkansas corridor, with a working downtown square and steady new commercial building around it. We cover Fayetteville and the Washington County area, including the University of Arkansas campus and Old Main, Dickson Street, the downtown square, Wilson Park and Washington-Willow, Mount Sequoyah, the Razorback Greenway and the College Avenue corridor.

Wind here. Fayetteville sits in an inland, Ozark upland area, which works out to roughly 105 mph under the code your town uses. That figure decides how wide and how thick the pole has to be, so we check it against your address before we quote. Two things shape a Fayetteville job and neither one is the wind figure. The city writes minimum canopy percentages into its tree preservation code and protects what is already standing, so you cannot simply clear a fly zone here; we measure what the flag will actually reach before a spot is agreed. The ground is the other. This is hillside with limestone under it, and an auger that goes deep in one yard can stop short in the next, so the hole gets looked at before the concrete is priced. Ridge ground above the town, up on Mount Sequoyah and the higher land east of campus, is its own exposure and gets sized that way rather than off a city figure. Washington County also sits in the heavier of the state's two ice bands, which is the argument for stainless hardware on the pulley and the snaps rather than plated.

Most of the people who call us from Fayetteville are university and college buildings, public and private schools, medical offices, churches, municipal facilities, hotels and the newer commercial frontage on College Avenue.
