Custom fences and gates—wood, composite, metal—designed around the architecture, privacy, and daily access.
Request an estimateWe review the fence line, gates, posts, adjoining walls, access, and hardscape transitions as one coordinated project rather than a stack of disconnected bids.
License scope: Fency Builders Inc. holds active CSLB #1104099, B — General Building only. CSLB classifies fencing as C-13 specialty work; powered gates and access-control equipment can require additional classifications. A standalone scope is not contracted until the written agreement identifies the responsible licensee and work.
A fence assessment starts below the panels: posts, footings, soil, grade, drainage, wind exposure, and gate loads.
Fence height and approval requirements depend on the jurisdiction, yard location, grade, overlays, corner-lot sight lines, retaining conditions, and pool-barrier use. We confirm the rule for the parcel with the governing agency before the design is final.
Posts and footings carry the fence system. Their design depends on height, soil, grade, wind exposure, material, spacing, and gate loads. A sloping run may use stepped or raked panels after the site condition is measured.
Wood, composite, steel, aluminum, and chain link differ in appearance, maintenance, repairability, wind response, product warranty, and installed cost. Automated-gate material cannot be selected separately from the frame, posts, hinges or track, operator, power, and safety devices.
Straight answers about permits, timelines, materials, and what actually determines the result.
Fence-height and approval rules depend on the parcel, yard location, zoning, sight lines, hillside conditions, retaining conditions, pool use, and local jurisdiction. The governing agency and approved project documents control the answer, so the property-specific limit is confirmed before design or contract.
Installation time depends on the total run, demolition, grade, access, post and footing work, material lead times, gate fabrication, automation, inspections, and weather. After reviewing the property and final scope, we provide a project-specific sequence instead of promising a generic number of days.
Wood, composite, steel, and aluminum differ in appearance, maintenance, structure, wind response, repair options, and installed cost. Product specifications, coating system, exposure, privacy needs, and the supporting posts and footings matter more than a blanket claim that one material always lasts longest.
We review both repair and replacement requests. Sound posts and footings may support a focused repair; failed posts or foundations can require replacement. Whether Fency Builders can contract the standalone fence scope, and which licensee is responsible, are confirmed before a written agreement.
Pricing depends on material, length, height, gates, demolition, disposal, grade, access, posts and footings, adjoining walls or concrete, automation, approvals, and the licensed parties required by the written scope. A site review is more reliable than a universal price per foot.
The answer depends on the jurisdiction, yard location, height, grade, retaining function, pool-barrier use, overlays, and other parcel conditions. Confirm the specific property with the governing building or planning department before ordering material; the official agency and approved project documents control the requirement.
We review the gate span, weight, posts or pillars, footing, hardware, track or swing geometry, conduit, and access-control needs. Fencing, powered-gate, electrical, and access-control responsibility are assigned in the written scope to contractors holding the classifications required for that project.
Fency Builders Inc. holds active CSLB #1104099, B — General Building only. Each request is reviewed to determine whether it qualifies as a B general-building project or requires an appropriately licensed specialty contractor. The responsible licensee, classification, and scope are identified in the written agreement before work begins.
