Fence Installation and Fence Repair Services in El Dorado Hills
We’re a full-service fence company for homeowners, businesses, and acreage owners, installing and repairing the common types of fences and gates across the community.
Wood Fences and Good Neighbor Fences
Affordable, classic privacy with real carpentry behind it, since a wood fence is only as straight as the person framing it. The beauty is natural and the curb appeal is immediate. Repairing or replacing aging redwood keeps us busy in the older villages, and wood fences remain our most-quoted job. Ask about Bolt-Up Hidden Steel Posts for a cleaner look and longer life.
Vinyl and Durabond Steel Fencing
Vinyl is low-maintenance and weather-resistant, holding its appearance for years, and installing it demands precision or the panels telegraph every alignment error. Among the pros of Durabond steel and other metal fences: high security in a sleek profile that takes the sun and dry heat.
Ornamental Iron and Pool Fence Installation
Ornamental iron keeps sightlines open on view lots, and it carries real weight compared to lighter aluminum alternatives. We fabricate and weld custom runs to suit your home’s style. A pool safety fence is its own discipline. Co-founder Steve Kempster brought 20 years of pool safety fencing experience into this company, and he still estimates personally.
Chain Link Fence and Agricultural Fencing
A chain link fence is practical, affordable perimeter fencing for larger parcels, livestock containment, and acreage where you need to define the boundary. We install commercial chain link fence for business yards too.
Fence Repair and Gate Repair
Sagging gates usually come down to worn hinges or loose screws, and leaning posts to what’s under them. We check the condition of each post to determine whether repairing one section is the right call, and we’ll also tell you when repairing stops making sense. When 20% or more of a fence is failing, replacing the whole run is the better buy.
Automated Gates and Gate Openers
Slide and swing gate installation, gate openers, solar power, LOOP sensors, keypads, and repair service that keeps the entry secure and easy to use. Repairing a gate opener often beats a decision to replace the entire system.
Commercial Fencing and Dumpster Enclosures
Security fencing, dumpster enclosures, commercial fence repair, and automated access for business properties near Town Center and along the Latrobe Road corridor.
Why El Dorado Hills Homeowners Choose Our Fence Company
Most people who call us have already been let down: unreturned calls, a crew that never showed, a quote that grew. Dominic Vella started this fence company in 2011 after hiring fence contractors at his own property and getting all three.
Here’s the proof instead of the adjectives. Approximately 35 background-checked W-2 employees. Flat pricing with zero hidden fees. A written guarantee that the job isn’t finished until you give the thumbs up. A thorough clean-up, because we understand we’re guests on your property. Our reviews name the crew who did the work, usually for the same two reasons: quality workmanship and professionalism on site.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured under CSLB License #979657, with general liability and workers’ compensation coverage. A fence contractor should answer the phone, show up on time, and charge fairly. Fourteen years in business here also means we know which local rules apply where. We aren’t the lowest bid you’ll see, and our prices reflect the value of crews who finish what they start.

How Your El Dorado Hills Fence Project Works
- You call or book online, and we answer. A real person schedules your free estimate.
- We walk the property. We measure footage and height, check grade, access, demolition, and gates, then flag whether County permitting, El Dorado Hills Community Services District architectural approval, or HOA review applies. In controlled CSD areas, district approval comes before the County permit.
- You get a written flat-price scope. Materials, height, footage, warranty, and schedule are spelled out before anything is ordered. Compare it against other contractors’ written estimates line for line.
- Our W-2 pros handle installation. 811 utility marking before we dig, posts set to depth, professional clean-up, and a final walkthrough to ensure you’re satisfied before we call the project finished.
What’s Different About Building a Fence in El Dorado Hills
El Dorado Hills is unincorporated, so your fence permit goes through the El Dorado County Planning and Building Department rather than a city counter.
The ground is the other difference. County documents map gravelly loam, rocky silt loam, stony sandy loam, and clay across slopes from gentle to very steep. Installing posts in that material means stepped panels, retaining wall coordination, and honest excavation assumptions, so creating a clean line across a hillside takes planning. That’s why your fence contractor should walk the slope before quoting.
Fire rules matter too. El Dorado Hills Fire Department standards require noncombustible fencing within five feet of a structure, and the first five feet of an attached combustible fence must be noncombustible. Automatic gates with access control need a gate opener listed to UL 325 under Regional Fire Protection Standard B-002.
Neighborhoods vary more than buyers expect. Serrano mixes production, semi-custom, and custom homes. Promontory runs hillside large-lot through multifamily. Lake Forest and the original villages often have aging wood fences past repairing, and many CC&Rs require written approval of material, height, color, and design even when no County permit is needed. Most rain falls November through April, so dry-season calendars fill fast.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does fence installation cost in El Dorado Hills?
It depends on material, footage, site access, grade, demolition, gates, and post system, so there’s no meaningful average to quote over the phone. We give you flat pricing with zero hidden fees after walking the property. Try the Fence Price Calculator on our website, then book a free fence estimate. Financing is available for Sacramento-region residents.
What is the most affordable fencing option?
A chain link fence is typically the most affordable, and wood fences are the most popular affordable privacy choice. Weigh the pros both ways, since vinyl and steel cost more upfront and ask less of you over the years.
Do I need a permit to put a fence around my property?
El Dorado County requires a building permit for a fence over seven feet high. Below that, setbacks still apply. A fence less than 50% open can’t exceed 40 inches in the primary front-yard setback, while one at least 50% open may reach seven feet. CSD or HOA approval may apply even when no County permit does, and we confirm all of it before ordering materials.
Do you serve El Dorado Hills and Rancho Cordova?
Yes. We cover the whole community, from Serrano and Promontory to Lake Forest and the original villages, plus business properties off Latrobe Road. Our Sacramento office dispatches east on Highway 50 through Rancho Cordova, so Rancho Cordova fence installation and fence repair run on the same schedule. Our service area covers Sacramento, Placer, El Dorado, Yuba, Yolo, and Nevada counties, including Roseville and Auburn to the north.
How do I choose the right fence contractor?
Verify the license with the CSLB, confirm active liability and workers’ compensation coverage, and get written estimates from at least three fence contractors. Read recent reviews, and favor a professional company with years behind it over one that formed last season. Choosing well comes down to what’s on paper: footage, height, and materials, so you can sign with real peace of mind.
