Fence Company in Cameron Park, CA: Installation, Repair, and Gates
Fantastic Fence installs, repairs, and replaces fences and gates throughout Cameron Park, and we do it as a licensed, bonded, and insured fence contractor (California CSLB License #979657) with background-checked W-2 employees on every crew. You get flat pricing with zero hidden fees and a written guarantee: the job isn’t finished until you give us the thumbs up.
Cameron Park is an unincorporated community, so your fence answers to El Dorado County Planning and Building rather than a city building department, and covered properties may also need Architectural Review Committee approval through the Cameron Park Community Services District. We walk you through both layers before a single post goes in the ground. That homework is part of what separates a real fence company from a crew with a truck and a post hole digger.
A quality fence adds security, privacy, curb appeal, and real value to your property, and hiring a licensed fence contractor means you aren’t carrying the risk if something goes wrong. We’ve built our reputation across the Sacramento area on quality workmanship and on treating homes with care, not on cutting corners.

Fencing Services We Provide in Cameron Park
We handle residential and commercial fencing projects in Cameron Park, from new fence installation to fence repair, wood through automated gates, all from one local fence company. One crew, one written scope, one point of contact. Tell us your fencing needs and what you want the outdoor space to feel like, and we’ll help you land on the perfect fence for your lot.
Wood Fence Installation and Good Neighbor Fences
A wood fence gives you privacy and warmth that no other material matches, and it stays affordable across long runs. We build traditional vertical pickets, pallet style fences, treated pine, open picket designs, and custom designed fences, all of which are the kind of wood fence the Cameron Park ARC will review. Shared boundary? We’ll help you plan a good neighbor fence and talk it through with the neighbor before we start. For most back yards here, a properly framed privacy fence in wood is still the best fence for the money.
Vinyl Fence Installation
A vinyl fence is the low-maintenance choice: no staining, no sealing, no warping season after season. Vinyl fence panels are weather-resistant and long-lasting, and eco friendly vinyl holds its color through Cameron Park summers. If you’re tired of repainting, a vinyl fence is usually where the conversation lands.
Ornamental Iron Fence and Aluminum Fencing
An ornamental iron fence is elegant, strong, and with reasonable maintenance it serves for decades. It’s the right call where you want a boundary without losing a view, around pools, golf course frontage, or sloped back lots. For commercial fencing projects, aluminum fencing opens up more design choices at a lighter weight while keeping the same open sightlines, and aluminum fencing resists rust without the upkeep an iron fence eventually asks for. Both styles can be built with flat top, spear top, or arched panel detailing.
Durabond Steel and Bolt-Up Hidden Steel Posts
Durabond steel gives you security fence strength with a sleek, modern look that doesn’t rot or lean. Our Bolt-Up Hidden Steel Posts put steel structure behind a wood fence’s appearance, so you get the clean seamless look with far more resistance to wind and time. Steel-framed and steel-post designs are among the fence types the Cameron Park ARC guidelines allow for review.
Chain Link Fence and Commercial Fencing
A chain link fence is robust, cost-effective, and still the workhorse for a commercial property, storage yard, or agricultural parcel, with razor wire and security gates available where site security matters. Here’s the honest part most pages leave out: chain link fence, barbed wire, and agricultural wire are not permitted under Cameron Park’s residential ARC fence guidelines. If you own a home in a covered Cameron Park neighborhood, we’ll steer you toward a design that will actually pass review.
Fence Repair, Fence Post Replacement, and Gate Repair
Not every failing fence needs replacing, and plenty of callers expect a fence company to push a full tear-out no matter what. We repair leaning sections, swap rotted fence posts, replace boards and panels, rehang and adjust gates, change out failed hardware, and rebuild partial runs where the rest of the fence is sound. No fence work is too small to get our real crews and our real standard. We look at it first and tell you what we actually see, not a predetermined answer.
Driveway Gates, Gate Openers, and Automated Gate Systems
We install and repair automated swing and slide gates, residential and commercial gate openers, solar powered gate openers, keypads, and LOOP sensors. Layout matters here: El Dorado County requires residential driveway gates to sit at least 20 feet back from the edge of pavement and prohibits a gate that swings into a road or right-of-way. We design around that before we quote, not after.
Retaining Walls and Pool Safety Fencing
When a fence sits on or near a retaining wall, the combined height is reviewed together, so we plan the wall and the fence as one project rather than two. For pool safety fencing, you’re working with a company whose co-founder, Steve Kempster, spent 20 years in that specialty before we opened in 2011. Top notch materials and correct installation are what make a barrier last, and we don’t compromise on either.
What Makes Us the Best Fence Company in Cameron Park
A top fence company answers the phone
If you’ve already had a fence contractor go quiet on you, that’s not bad luck, it’s the industry problem this company was built to fix. Dominic Vella was a homeowner who hired fence companies and got unreturned calls, dirty job sites, and crews that didn’t show up when they said they would. He and Steve Kempster started Fantastic Fence in 2011 to do the opposite. Answer the phone, show up, do an amazing job. That was the whole plan, and the office still answers.
Licensed, experienced fence installers you can actually verify
What that looks like now: approximately 35 background-checked W-2 employees (not day labor), three offices, over 1,000 five-star reviews, BBB Accredited, and California CSLB License #979657, licensed, bonded, and insured. Working with a licensed fence contractor means the liability, the workmanship, and the cleanup are our responsibility, not yours, and the experienced fence installers who get the job done are on our payroll. You can look up that license number before you ever let our fence installers on the property, and we’d rather you did.
Flat pricing from an affordable fence contractor
You get flat pricing with zero hidden fees and a written guarantee that the job isn’t done until you say it’s done. We’re an affordable fence contractor, not the cheapest one, and high quality fence installation at a reasonable price is the trade we make instead of shaving post depth, hardware, or framing. After every fencing job we do a thorough clean-up and leave your property the way we found it. We’re guests on your property, and our crews behave like it, introducing themselves and keeping the site tidy while they work. Extremely professional conduct on site is what we hire and train for.
Excellent customer service here is ordinary things done consistently. You get a call back. The crew arrives when we said. The work wraps in a timely manner, and customer satisfaction is literally what the written guarantee measures.
Locally, we know the two-layer approval path here: El Dorado County Planning and Building for permits, and the Cameron Park CSD Architectural Review Committee for design on covered properties. That’s also why we price a Cameron Park fence after walking your grade, gates, easements, and frontage, never over the phone from a guess. Quality work at an honest price is not a contradiction, and that belief is why a local company with crews who stay around is worth calling. Financing is available for Sacramento-region residents if you’d rather spread the cost of larger fencing projects.

How Our Cameron Park Fence Installation Works
-
- 1. You call or book online. Give us the project details and what’s happening with the fence, and we schedule a free estimate at your Cameron Park property. You can also reach us through our contact page and we’ll call you back.
-
- 2. We measure on site. Our estimator takes precise measurements of every run, gate, and grade change, because accurate footage is what makes a flat price hold. We also note easements, drainage, retaining walls, and anything close enough to a structure that fire requirements may come into play.
-
- 3. We verify lines and utilities. We confirm property-line and easement locations with you before we start installing, and we coordinate 811 utility marking so nothing underground gets hit. Where boundaries are genuinely unclear, we’ll tell you a survey is the safer path.
-
- 4. You get a flat written scope, and we help with the paperwork. Your quote spells out materials, footage, gates, and haul-away of the old fence with zero hidden fees. If your property is covered by the ARC, we help you identify what the application needs, though approval is the committee’s decision and we never promise it.
-
- 5. We build it and you sign off. Background-checked W-2 employees handle the final installation, clean the site thoroughly, and walk it with you. The job is not finished until you give us the thumbs up, in writing.
Cameron Park Permits, Neighborhoods, and Conditions We Build For
Approvals: El Dorado County permit, ARC review, or both
El Dorado County generally exempts fences seven feet high or less from a building permit, but a County exemption is not an ARC exemption. Covered Cameron Park properties may still need Architectural Review Committee approval for fencing and exterior improvements, and a fence over seven feet needs both the ARC and the County.
| Your project | County building permit | Cameron Park ARC review | Height limit to plan around |
|---|---|---|---|
| Back or side yard fence, 7 feet or less | Generally exempt | May be required on covered properties ($103 fencing review fee, schedule effective February 15, 2026) | 7 feet |
| Any fence over 7 feet | Required | Required on covered properties | Over 7 feet triggers both layers |
| Front yard fence, closed design | Generally exempt at 7 feet or less | May be required on covered properties | 40 inches, set 10 feet behind the front property line or easement |
| Front yard fence, at least 50% open | Generally exempt at 7 feet or less | May be required on covered properties | 48 inches, set 10 feet behind the front property line or easement |
| Driveway gate | Confirm with the County | May be required on covered properties | At least 20 feet back from pavement edge, no swing into a road or right-of-way |
| Fence on or near a retaining wall | Confirm with the County | May be required on covered properties | Wall and fence height reviewed together as one project |
Practical details worth knowing before you plan: the ARC fencing review fee is $103 under the fee schedule effective February 15, 2026. The committee meets biweekly on Tuesdays at 8:30 a.m., and complete applications are due by the end of the Tuesday before the meeting. Starting covered work without approval may result in additional or doubled review fees.
Front-yard fencing has its own limits: 40 inches for closed designs, 48 inches when the fence is at least 50% open, and it must sit 10 feet behind the front property line or easement. If you’re replacing an existing fence in the same place with the same design, confirm the scope directly with the CSD rather than assuming you’re exempt.
Neighborhoods and housing stock we work in
Cameron Park isn’t one kind of property. Cameron Airpark Estates sits west of the runway and uses shared-use roads that let homeowners taxi aircraft home, which means wide gates and oversized access points have to be designed in from the start. The early-1960s development also laid out custom single-family home sites around the country club, linked to the Airpark by Fairway Drive, and Bar J Ranch spreads across both sides of Country Club Drive north of U.S. 50 and west of Cambridge Road.
Official subdivision records include Cameron Woods, Creekside Estates, Deer Creek Estates, Cameron Valley Estates, the Highlands, townhouses, condominiums, and five-acre estate units. With 7,610 housing units counted in the 2020 Census and a median construction year of 1986 per Census ACS data, this is an established community where fence repair and full fence replacement both make sense depending on what we find.
Climate, terrain, and surrounding areas we serve
July averages a 94°F high here and August 93°F, which is exactly why fence material choice is a real conversation and not a default. A vinyl fence, an ornamental iron fence, aluminum fencing, and Durabond steel all handle that heat differently than wood or composite materials do, and quality materials are what buy you durability over the long run.
The CSD hazard plan describes district-level terrain as generally stable with gentle slopes and robust soil, but your parcel still gets its own grade and retaining wall review during the estimate. CSD guidance also notes that fire requirements may apply to fences and gates within five to ten feet of a structure, which we’d confirm with the local fire agency. We serve Cameron Park and the entire area around it from our Sacramento office on Fair Oaks Blvd., roughly 32 to 33 miles out via U.S. 50 through Rancho Cordova, and we cover Sacramento County communities such as Citrus Heights the same way.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a new fence cost in Cameron Park?
It depends on several factors: material, total linear footage, demolition, gates, site access, grade, and whether a retaining wall or an approval is involved, which is why we measure precisely before quoting. You get flat pricing with zero hidden fees, and financing is available for Sacramento-region residents. Try our Fence Price Calculator for a free quote range, then book a free estimate for a real number.
Do I need a permit or ARC approval to install a fence in Cameron Park?
El Dorado County generally exempts fences seven feet or under from a building permit, but covered Cameron Park properties may still require Architectural Review Committee approval, and anything over seven feet needs both. The ARC fencing review fee is $103 under the schedule effective February 15, 2026. Starting covered work before approval may result in additional or doubled fees, so confirm your replacement scope with the CSD first.
How long does Cameron Park ARC approval take?
The committee meets biweekly on Tuesdays at 8:30 a.m., and complete applications are due by the end of the prior Tuesday, so a complete and well-timed submission can reach the next meeting. Timing isn’t guaranteed, and we don’t promise installation dates in advance.
Can I install a chain link fence at my Cameron Park home?
No. A chain link fence, barbed wire, and agricultural wire are not permitted under the Cameron Park residential ARC fence guidelines. A wood fence, steel-framed and steel-post designs, and an ornamental iron fence may be submitted for review instead. Chain link remains an affordable, practical option for a commercial property or agricultural acreage elsewhere in El Dorado County.
Can you repair my leaning fence instead of replacing it?
Often, yes. Fence post replacement, board and panel repair, hardware, gate adjustment, and Bolt-Up Hidden Steel Posts can extend a fence’s life and restore both function and appearance. Amazing work on a repair looks like a fence nobody can tell was repaired, and a small job gets the same crew and the same fantastic job standard as a full rebuild. We give you an honest assessment after seeing it in person.
Do you serve my area, and do you install driveway gates?
Yes. Cameron Park is served from our Sacramento office, about 32 to 33 miles away via U.S. 50, and sits inside our El Dorado County footprint alongside Sacramento, Placer, Yuba, Yolo, and Nevada counties. We plan driveway gates and gate openers to County rules: at least 20 feet from the pavement edge, with no swing into a road or right-of-way.
