Frequently Asked Questions About Fence Ordinances

Understanding fence ordinances is crucial when planning a fence installation to avoid potential legal issues or conflicts with neighbors. Always research local regulations and consult with relevant authorities before proceeding with fence construction.

After calling different contractors in the 30 miles radius and received no response, I turned to Fantastic Fence. I have had an installation by the same company before and the job was done right and great. Fantastic Fence simply doesn’t disappoint! The crew members are polite and on time. They are good listeners and are willing to work with me on details. Work is completed today as we agreed and to my likings. I highly recommend Fantastic Fence to everyone!

We recently hired Fantastic Fence to install a 6-foot redwood fence with a 3-foot retaining wall, and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience! We received multiple quotes, but Fantastic Fence stood out from the beginning. They showed up on time for the estimate, provided a clear, detailed proposal that was easy to understand, and offered some great recommendations that other contractors hadn't considered. One of the best suggestions was using steel posts instead of wood for the retaining wall, providing additional strength and durability. Even better, they concealed the steel posts with redwood, giving us the structural benefits without sacrificing the beautiful, natural appearance of the fence. That attention to detail really impressed me. Communication was excellent throughout the process, from scheduling to installation. The crew showed up as promised, did outstanding work, and completed the entire project on time. The craftsmanship and finished product exceeded my expectations. What impressed me just as much was the customer service. At one point, I thought one of my shovels had accidentally been taken during the project. I contacted the owner, and rather than brushing it off, he personally helped track it down, even contacting my neighbor. Sure enough, the shovel was found! That says a lot about the integrity of a business and how seriously they take customer concerns. Fantastic Fence delivered exactly what they promised: quality workmanship, honest communication, thoughtful recommendations, and excellent customer service from start to finish. It's refreshing to work with a contractor who takes pride in both their work and their reputation. I would absolutely hire Fantastic Fence again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality fence or retaining wall. They earned every one of these five stars!

Fantastic Fence did a superb job repairing damages to sections of our redwood fence caused when a large tree fell during the heavy rainstorms this Spring and uprooted the foundations. The company that installed this fence many years ago is out of business but my wife followed the "Kangroo logo" on the Fantastic Fence trucks doing another downed fence repair in our neighborhood. Cody and Jesus did an expert job for us and our next door neighbor with whom we share this large stretch of fencing. The really Fantastic part of this company is the attitude and attention to detail of this company's crew. They worked with us and kept us closely informed until the job was "done well" ... including clean up. Excellent work start to finish at a fair price. Check out this local contractor for fence designs and installations or smaller repair jobs. We're glad we did! They know about fences.

I needed 2 new gates put on our fence. Surprisingly this was apparently difficult for some fence contractors to do, as we got ghosted multiple times. Fantastic fence actually followed through, got us a quote and put us on their calendar. The installers came out and fixed everything up and now I have two wonderful, sturdy gates.

Fantastic Fence replaced two sections of our fence - one long "L" shaped segment and one that included building a new gate, from scratch. The work was completed in two days and everything was done with precision. It all looks very nice indeed. Their price was very reasonable! We recommend Fantastic Fence without hesitation!
