Fencing

Set in concrete, straight, and built to last

Redwood & CedarPetaluma, CA · Marin, Sonoma & Napa

Fences fail at the posts, almost without exception. The panels outlive them by years while the post rots at grade, the run starts to lean, and eventually a winter storm finishes it. So that is where the work goes: holes dug to depth, pressure-treated or steel posts set in concrete with the tops shaped to shed water, rails fixed to carry the load, and boards run off a string line so the fence is straight when you sight down it. We build good-neighbour, board-on-board, horizontal, lattice-top, and solid privacy fences in redwood and cedar, plus gates hung on hardware that will not sag in a year. On a slope a fence has to be either stepped or racked — we will show you what each looks like on your ground before we build it, because it changes the whole appearance of the run.

Our Process

1

Walk the Line

We walk the run with you, check the slope and the property line, and agree the style and height.

2

Clear and Dig

Old fence out, post holes dug to depth — not driven into a shallow hole and backfilled with spoil.

3

Set and Frame

Posts set in concrete and left to cure, then rails fixed square before a single board goes on.

4

Board and Finish

Boards run off a string line, gates hung and adjusted, and the site cleared of the old material.
