Serving La Verne, CA and surrounding areas. (840) 200-1376
If your fence is leaning, rotting, or one wind event away from falling, we replace it completely - posts, rails, and all.
Fence replacement in La Verne means removing the entire existing fence - boards, rails, posts, and old concrete footings - and installing a new fence from the ground up, most residential jobs completed in one to three days with posts set deep in concrete to stay stable through La Verne clay soil movement and seasonal Santa Ana winds.
Many La Verne fences were installed during the city's major growth periods in the 1960s through 1990s. That means posts set in soil rather than concrete, and boards that have gone decades without proper sealing. When rot reaches the posts themselves, repair only delays the inevitable. If your fence is still structurally sound but just needs cosmetic attention, our fence repair service may be the better and more affordable starting point.
If your fence is visibly tilting away from vertical after a wind storm, the posts have shifted or the concrete footings have cracked. A leaning fence does not straighten itself back out. In La Verne, where strong fall Santa Ana winds are a regular occurrence, a fence that leans after one event will almost certainly fall during the next one.
Press on a board. If it feels spongy or crumbles at the edges, the wood has rotted through - often from the inside out. La Verne's intense summer sun accelerates this by drying out untreated wood until it splits, then rare rains get inside. Once rot reaches the posts, repair is rarely worth the cost.
A gate that drags, sticks, or will not latch is usually a sign the post it hangs from has shifted. This is a structural problem, not a hardware problem. In La Verne's clay soil, posts not set in concrete can migrate over years of wet-dry cycles until the gate frame is no longer square.
A few missing boards might seem like a simple repair, but if several are failing at the same time, the rails and posts holding them are usually in similar condition. Patching individual boards on a structurally compromised fence looks better briefly but does not solve the underlying problem.
We replace fences in all the common residential materials. Wood remains the most popular choice in La Verne neighborhoods, and with a proper stain and seal schedule it lasts 15 to 20 years. Vinyl and aluminum fences cost more upfront but hold up to the local sun without the same maintenance demands. If you want a decorative option that doubles as a security barrier, our wood fence installation and our ornamental options are both worth comparing before you decide on a material.
For homeowners who want to take the opportunity of a replacement to upgrade their fence style or layout, we also offer fence repair as a lower-cost option when the structure is still sound. The right call depends on the age and condition of your current posts - which is something we assess during the free estimate visit before we recommend anything.
The most common replacement in La Verne. Dog-ear and flat-top boards in cedar or treated pine, with posts set in concrete designed for the local clay soil.
Good for homeowners who want low maintenance. Vinyl holds up to UV and moisture without painting or sealing, and is available in privacy and semi-privacy styles.
Suits front yards, pool enclosures, or any application where visibility matters. Aluminum does not rust and holds up well to La Verne wind events.
Every replacement includes full removal of the old fence - boards, rails, posts, and concrete footings - with all debris hauled away the same day work is completed.
La Verne sits in the eastern San Gabriel Valley, where Santa Ana wind events regularly push gusts well above 50 miles per hour through the Cajon Pass corridor each fall and winter. A fence that looks fine in September can be leaning by November if the posts were not set properly. The city also sits on clay-heavy soil that expands when wet and contracts when dry - a cycle that slowly pushes fence posts out of plumb if they are not anchored deep in concrete. Most of La Verne's original residential fences were installed without deep concrete footings, which is why so many are now failing.
La Verne has its own building department separate from Los Angeles County, and fences over six feet typically require a city permit before work begins. HOA restrictions add another layer in many neighborhoods built after the 1980s. Homeowners in neighboring Pomona and Upland face similar permit and soil conditions, and we handle the full process in both cities. If a permit is required for your project, we manage the application from start to finish.
The American Fence Association and the California Contractors State License Board both publish guidance on what to look for when hiring a fence contractor and how to verify a license is current and valid.
We ask about your fence length, material preference, and whether you have HOA restrictions. You will hear back within one business day. Most contractors cannot give accurate prices over the phone, so we schedule a free on-site estimate.
We walk your property line, measure the run, and check the terrain and soil. If your fence height requires a La Verne building permit, we tell you upfront and handle the application. Written estimate follows within a day or two.
On the first work day, the crew removes the old fence and hauls everything away. New posts go in with concrete footings sized for La Verne clay soil. The concrete typically cures overnight before boards are installed the following day.
Rails and boards go on once the concrete has set. Gates are hung and adjusted. Before we leave, we walk the entire fence line with you. Any concern you raise on the spot gets addressed before we pack up.
Free on-site estimate. We handle permits, HOA submissions, and debris removal so you do not have to.
(840) 200-1376We dig deeper than the minimum and use more concrete than many contractors because La Verne's clay soil and Santa Ana winds demand it. A fence that shifts or falls after the first wind event of the season is not acceptable work - and we back our installations accordingly.
La Verne has its own building department, and unpermitted fence work can become a real problem when you sell your home. We pull the permit, coordinate the inspection if required, and make sure the job is on record as done correctly. You do not have to figure out what forms to file.
Many La Verne communities built after the 1980s have HOA rules about fence height, materials, and colors. We have navigated these requirements in neighborhoods across the city and can help you put together a design that gets association approval before a board goes in the ground.
Every fence replacement includes complete teardown and haul-away of the old fence - boards, rails, posts, and concrete footings. Your yard will be clean and usable the day we finish. No stacks of old lumber left for you to deal with.
We have been replacing fences in La Verne and the surrounding Inland Valley communities long enough to know what the local housing stock looks like - and what those older post footings look like when we dig them out. That experience means fewer surprises on the day of work.
New wood fence installation after teardown, built with deep concrete footings to stay plumb through La Verne wind and soil movement.
