Fence Installation and Repair in Santa Rosa, CA
Whether you need a new privacy fence, a replacement for storm-damaged sections, a pool enclosure, or a custom gate — we install and repair fences for Santa Rosa homeowners and businesses throughout Sonoma County.
We work with wood, vinyl, chain link, wrought iron, and composite fencing materials. Most residential fence projects in Santa Rosa are straightforward, but we also handle trickier situations — sloped lots, property line disputes that require survey coordination, HOA-restricted neighborhoods with specific material and height requirements, and commercial properties that need heavier-gauge security fencing.
Every project starts with a free on-site estimate. We’ll look at your property, discuss your goals, and give you a clear price before any work begins.
Fence Repair in Santa Rosa
Not every damaged fence needs to be replaced. We repair fences regularly for Santa Rosa homeowners who have been quoted full replacement by other contractors when targeted repairs were all that was needed.
Common repair jobs we handle include rotted or leaning posts, damaged or missing boards, sagging gates that won’t latch, rust on wrought iron sections, and storm damage from the kind of wind events Sonoma County gets in winter. In most cases we can assess the damage on-site and complete repairs the same day or within a few days depending on material availability.
If replacement genuinely makes more sense than repair — because the fence is at end of life or damage is too widespread — we’ll tell you that honestly and give you a replacement quote at the same time. You won’t get a repair recommendation just because it’s the easier sale.
Privacy Fence Installation in Santa Rosa
Privacy fences are the most requested fence type we install in Santa Rosa — and the options have expanded considerably beyond the standard six-foot dog-ear wood fence that most people picture.
Wood remains the most popular choice for privacy fencing in Sonoma County. Cedar and redwood are the premium options — both hold up well locally and look great, but require staining or sealing every few years. Pressure-treated pine is more affordable upfront but tends to look more utilitarian. Vinyl privacy fencing costs more than wood initially but is essentially maintenance-free and won’t rot, warp, or splinter over time.
Height and setback requirements vary depending on your location in Santa Rosa and whether you’re in a front yard, side yard, or rear yard situation. Most rear yard fences are permitted up to six feet without a variance. We’ll confirm requirements for your specific property during the estimate.
Chain Link Fence Installation in Santa Rosa
Chain link is the most practical and cost-effective fencing option for larger properties, commercial sites, and situations where security matters more than aesthetics. It’s also the go-to choice for dog runs, sports courts, and perimeter fencing on agricultural or rural properties in the outlying areas of Sonoma County.
Standard residential chain link in Santa Rosa typically runs $15–$25 per linear foot installed. Commercial grade with heavier gauge wire and posts costs more but holds up significantly better under daily stress. We also install vinyl-coated chain link in black, green, and brown for properties where appearance matters but budget or durability requirements rule out wood or vinyl privacy fencing.
Chain link goes up faster than any other fence type — most residential installations are complete in one day. We also repair existing chain link, including sagging sections, damaged posts, and gate hardware that’s worn out.
Fence Installation & Repair FAQs — Santa Rosa
How much does fence installation cost in Santa Rosa?
Wood privacy fences typically run $15–$30 per linear foot installed in Sonoma County. Vinyl runs similar or slightly higher. Chain link is generally $15–$25 per linear foot. Wrought iron and custom gates cost more depending on design complexity. Most residential fence projects in Santa Rosa fall between $2,500 and $8,000 total. We provide a detailed estimate after seeing your property.
How long does fence installation take?
Chain link installations are typically completed in one day. Wood and vinyl privacy fences usually take 2–4 days depending on length and site conditions. We give you a realistic timeline at the estimate stage.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Santa Rosa?
It depends on height and location. Most rear yard fences up to six feet don’t require a permit in Santa Rosa. Front yard fences and anything over six feet generally do. We confirm permit requirements for your specific property during the estimate and pull permits as part of the project when needed.
Do you repair fences or only install new ones?
We do both. We repair rotted posts, damaged boards, sagging gates, rust on wrought iron, and storm damage. If repair makes more sense than replacement we’ll tell you — and if replacement is the better long-term value we’ll tell you that too.
What fence materials do you work with?
Wood, vinyl, chain link, wrought iron, and composite. Each has different trade-offs in cost, maintenance, and longevity that we’ll walk you through during your estimate.
Do you install custom gates?
Yes — wood, wrought iron, and chain link gates, both manual and automatic. We also repair and replace gate hardware, hinges, and latches on existing fences.
What areas do you serve for fence installation?
Santa Rosa and throughout Sonoma County, plus parts of Marin, Napa, and Mendocino Counties.
