October 12, 2023 // Franchising.com // DES MOINES, Iowa – Top Rail Fence today announced the grand opening of its first location in Iowa, serving the greater Des Moines area. The location is owned by Bret and Jill Staples.

The couple had previously introduced themselves and their new Top Rail Fence Des Moines location at the Iowa Association of Realtors Annual Convention at the Marriot Downtown on Sept. 26–28.

“One of the best things about opening a new business in Des Moines is the opportunity to network with other home service businesses in the area to ensure everyone’s success,” owner Bret Staples said. “I’m encouraged by the fact that I can take what I’ve learned over the course of my career to grow my own business, my way, and without the obstacles that come from working within a larger organization.”

Staples has more than 20 years of experience in sales and leadership roles working for such companies as McKesson and Ortho Clinical Diagnostics. He spent most of his career building successful sales teams, developing business plans and executing strategic objectives for growth in the diagnostic testing market.

Top Rail Fence Des Moines isn’t his first dip into entrepreneurship, either. He once owned an Anytime Fitness franchise but sold it to his partner prior to a move out of state. Staples is from West Des Moines and has spent most of his life in the area but left to pursue career opportunities in Michigan.

Staples said he enjoys being back in Des Moines and can’t wait to renew his relationships within the area’s business community.

“Jill and I love Des Moines because it has great people that truly care about one another,” he said. “It’s a high-growth city with flourishing suburbs. And the people moving into these areas need contractors who will quickly respond to their needs and pay attention to detail. We want to be the fencing company that fulfills these needs and provide a high quality fence with superior customer service.”

The Staples have been married for more than 30 years and have two grown sons, Hunter, 24, and Spencer, 21.

Top Rail Fence Des Moines will serve the residents of Altoona, Ames, Ankeny, Booneville, Clive, Des Moines, Grimes, Indianola, Johnston, Lovington, Marquisville, Saylorville, Spring Hill, Summerset, Swanwood, Urbandale, Waukee and West Des Moines, Iowa.
