Fantastic Fence is a licensed, bonded, and insured fence company (CSLB #979657), with flat pricing, zero hidden fees, and a written guarantee that the job isn’t finished until you give the thumbs up.
Sacramento County describes Wilton as a rural agricultural-residential community, and that’s how we scope every fencing project here: one- to ten-acre parcels, private wells and septic systems, long boundary runs, and driveway entrances set well back from the road. Hiring a qualified fence contractor is what keeps a fence standing straight for decades instead of needing rework, and it’s the simplest way to lower your risk of problems later.

Fence and Gate Services for Wilton Homeowners and Business Owners
We cover the full range of fence installation services a Wilton property actually needs, on residential and commercial properties alike, from pasture boundaries to the privacy fence outside the kitchen window. Many fence companies work in one or two materials and steer every customer there. Our crews build in all of them, so the recommendation follows your property instead of our inventory.
Agricultural and Ranch Fencing for Acreage
Livestock containment, pasture boundaries, corrals, horse fences, and long woven-wire or ranch-rail runs that clearly define where your property ends. A large boundary project can be phased so the budget follows the work instead of leading it.
Automated Driveway Gate Installation and Gate Openers
Automated swing and slide gates, keypads, LOOP sensors, and residential or commercial gate openers. Driveway gate installation is one of the fastest-growing requests we get, because an automated driveway gate adds real security and daily convenience at a long rural entrance. Where power doesn’t reach the gates, a solar powered gate opener is usually the practical answer.
Chain Link Fence Installation for Boundaries, Shops, and Equipment
Chain link is affordable and practical for long perimeters, animal enclosures, and security around barns, shops, and equipment yards. A chain link fence deters potential threats without blocking sightlines across the property, and chain link gates can be sized wide enough for a tractor or a trailer.
Wood Fence Installation: Privacy and Good Neighbor Fences
Privacy where you want it most, around the backyard and close to the house, with the natural beauty redwood is known for. A wood fence holds up best with regular staining and sealing, and our Bolt-Up Hidden Steel Posts give you a clean wood look with steel strength behind it.
Vinyl Fence Installation and Ornamental Iron Fencing
Vinyl is weather-resistant and needs virtually no maintenance, which is why vinyl fence installation makes sense on a property where you already have plenty to keep up. A vinyl fence holds its color without a yearly stain. Ornamental iron fencing brings an elegant, timeless look to front entrances while keeping open views across acreage.
Durabond Steel and Commercial Fences
Durabond steel, commercial iron, corrugated metal, dumpster enclosures, and access control for the business side of a property. Steel and aluminum fences are the right call for commercial fences, industrial sites, and the working portions of a parcel where security and durable materials are the whole point. If you run a business out here, we can stage the work around your operating hours.
Fence Repair, Gate Repair, and Pool Safety Fencing
Leaning posts, sagging gates, storm-damaged sections, and pool safety fence installation. We match the perfect fencing solution to your property rather than forcing one standard layout onto the parcel, and on five acres the perfect fencing solution is usually two or three materials working together.
Comparing Fence Companies, Installers Near Wilton
Fantastic Fence exists because co-founder Dominic Vella hired fence companies for his own property and got unreturned calls, dirty job sites, and crews that showed up whenever they felt like it. He and Steve Kempster started this company in 2011, and for over a decade we’ve run it as the opposite of that experience. Today we’re the region’s largest local fence and gate company.
What to Check Before You Hire Fence Contractors
Most people choose fence contractors on price alone and find out later what that really cost them. If you’re weighing fence companies and installers near Wilton, here’s what you can verify about our company before you hire us:
- Licensed, bonded, and insured, CSLB License #979657.
- Approximately 35 background-checked W-2 professionals on staff, not day labor.
- Flat pricing with zero hidden fees and one written scope.
- Thorough clean-up after every job, because we’re guests on your property.
- A written guarantee and over 1,000 five-star reviews.
- Financing available for area residents.
We also know the county rules that apply out here, and that expertise keeps your project from stalling. Improper fence installation shows up fast, sometimes within months, as leaning posts and gates that won’t latch. Quality workmanship does the opposite: it protects curb appeal and adds real value to the property. And co-founder Steve Kempster still runs estimates personally, so a small repair gets the same attention from our professionals as a half-mile boundary project. Get a free fence estimate.
How Your Wilton Fencing Project Works
- Free estimate on site. We walk the property, measure linear footage, count gates, and note demolition, access, terrain, drainage, and animal needs. If you’re still researching your fencing project, start with our Fence Price Calculator.
- One written scope and flat price. Footage, materials, gates, removal and disposal, and exclusions, all in writing with zero hidden fees. If the design needs a county permit, we tell you before you sign.
- Layout, utilities, and approval. We call 811 before we dig so underground utilities are marked, and we ask you to point out private wells, septic, irrigation, propane, and gate-control lines that public marking won’t show. Fence layout is not a boundary survey. When the line is genuinely in question, we’ll tell you plainly that a licensed land surveyor is the right call.
- Installation, clean-up, and your thumbs up. A background-checked crew does the work, the property is left as we found it, and the fence isn’t finished until you approve it. Many residential fences go in within about one to three days; acreage boundaries and automated gates take longer, and we’ll tell you which yours is.
Wilton Fence Rules, Terrain, and Local Conditions We Plan For
Wilton is unincorporated, so there is no Wilton city building department. The Sacramento County Building Permits and Inspection Division is the permit authority, and the County lists fences over seven feet in height as requiring a building permit. A fence over seven feet may be allowed when it’s set back three feet from an interior property line with that permit; directly on the line, it requires a Special Development Permit approved by the Zoning Administrator. Fence permit fees are valuation-based, not one flat fence fee.
Height limits depend on how your parcel is zoned. In agricultural and agricultural-residential zones, front-yard fences may run up to seven feet, open or solid. Other residential zones distinguish three-foot solid, four-foot semi-open, and seven-foot open ornamental fencing in the front yard. Side-street and interior-yard fences generally cap at seven feet without additional approval. The County added agricultural electric-fence standards effective September 10, 2026, including a Minor Special Development Permit requirement within 50 feet of a boundary adjoining an incompatible zone, and barbed wire is allowed in AR-2, AR-5, and AR-10 zones for keeping animals. We confirm the parcel’s zoning before applying any of it.
Ground and water matter here too. The Dillard Road and Berry Road area is a documented repetitive-loss area tied to local topography and drainage ditches, so we look hard at grade, drainage, and post locations during the estimate. Conditions change across a large parcel, so post depth, concrete, and installation methods get confirmed on site rather than assumed.
We work the corridors from Dillard and Colony roads near the Wilton Community Center out to Alta Mesa, Clay Station, Green, and Davis roads. Our nearest office location is on Fair Oaks Blvd in Sacramento, CA. Call ahead and we’ll give you current scheduling instead of a guessed drive time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to put a fence around my property in Wilton?
Usually not for a fence seven feet or under, but Sacramento County, not a Wilton city office, is the permit authority, and fences over seven feet require a building permit. Zoning rules still apply even when a permit doesn’t. We check the parcel’s zoning as part of the free estimate.
How much will a fence cost for a long Wilton property line?
It depends on linear footage, material, gate count and width, demolition, access, and ground conditions, which is why we price it on site instead of guessing. You get flat pricing, zero hidden fees, and a written scope listing what’s included and what isn’t. Start with the Fence Price Calculator, then book a free fence estimate for a real number. Financing is available.
How long does fence installation take?
Many residential fence installation jobs are finished within about one to three days, while multi-acre boundaries and automated gates take longer. If the design requires county plan review, the County describes roughly one to three days for intake and about 14 to 21 working days for review. We give you a schedule tied to your actual scope.
What fence works best for five acres with horses or livestock?
Most acreage homeowners end up with a combination: ranch-rail or woven wire for pasture boundaries, a chain link fence around shops and equipment, and a wood privacy fence near the house. Agricultural electric fencing is allowed by right in the listed agricultural and rural-residential zones, but needs a Minor Special Development Permit within 50 feet of a boundary adjoining an incompatible zone. Barbed wire is allowed in AR-2, AR-5, and AR-10 zones for keeping animals.
Can you install an automatic gate at the end of a long driveway?
Yes, including automated swing and slide gates, keypads, LOOP sensors, and solar powered gate openers when running power to the entrance isn’t practical. We evaluate power, grade, and driveway width at the estimate. Taking care of the hardware matters for security and reliability, so plan on having the gate serviced at least once a year and on routine maintenance for the fence itself.
Do you serve my part of Wilton?
Yes. We cover Wilton and the surrounding corridors, from properties near Dillard and Colony roads out toward Alta Mesa, Clay Station, Green, and Davis roads. Our crews cover Sacramento, Placer, El Dorado, Yuba, Yolo, and Nevada counties.
