Fences & gates · Our own crew
Fence builder in Los Angeles & the Valley
Our own crew builds wood, horizontal, composite and metal fences, driveway gates and walk gates. Posts, footings, gates and hardware are planned as one line, so the fence stays straight and the gate keeps closing.

Before the price
What decides the job.
What the parcel allows
Height and placement depend on the city, the yard (front, side or rear), corner sight lines and pool rules. We check the rule for your parcel before the design is final.
Posts, footings and grade
The posts carry the fence. Their size, depth and spacing follow the height, soil, wind and gate weight. On a slope we measure first, then choose stepped or raked panels.
Material for LA sun and wind
Redwood, composite, steel and aluminum age differently. We compare look, upkeep and repair before you choose. A powered gate is chosen with its frame, posts, operator and safety devices, never alone.
How it goes
From the first visit to the last check.
Walk the line
We walk the fence line with you, measure, and note grade, gates, utilities and what stays.
One estimate
Material, posts and footings, gates, hardware and removal of the old fence, all in one estimate.
Build
Old fence out, posts set, then panels, gates and hardware, in that order.
Check every gate
Before we leave, we check gate swing, latches and the top line with you.

What people ask us.
Do I need a permit for a new fence in Los Angeles?
It depends on the height, where the fence stands on the lot, and the city or county the parcel is in. Front-yard fences, retaining sections and pool barriers have their own rules. We check the rule for your parcel before the design is final, and our fence permit guide walks through the details.
Can you build a gate that matches my fence?
Yes. We match the material, spacing and finish, and the gate gets its own posts sized for its weight. An old fence post is rarely the right post for a new gate.
Should I repair my fence or replace it?
If the posts are sound, a repair is often enough: new boards, rails or a rebuilt gate. When posts lean or rot along the run, replacing the line is usually the better spend. Our repair-or-replace guide lists the signs.
Do you install automatic gates?
Yes. A powered gate is planned as one system: frame, posts, hinges or track, operator, power and safety devices. Picking the operator first and the gate later is where most gate problems start.
