Process We Follow for Fence Replacement
Replacing a fence is a major project that requires proper planning, material selection and flawless execution. Here is an overview of what you can expect when you choose our team for your fence replacement project:
Initial Consultation and Quote
The process starts when our knowledgeable fence contractor visits your property to evaluate your existing fence line and discusses your vision for a replacement fence. We measure the perimeter of the area needing a new fence and discuss factors that can impact the cost like terrain, access and municipal restrictions.
After assessing your needs, lifestyle and preferences, we provide a detailed, written quote outlining exactly what the fence replacement entails and the investment needed for us to handle the entire project. There are no hidden fees or surprises down the road.
Material Selection
With the quote in hand, we help you select the best replacement fence material and style to match your home.
We offer all fence materials from vinyl, wood and composite to aluminum, chain link and wrought iron. Each fence type has its own sets of pros and cons.
For instance, wood is attractive but requires regular maintenance. Vinyl has a longer lifespan but offers less privacy. Composite balances durability and aesthetics. Wrought iron is decorative yet expensive. Our fence experts explain how different materials and styles like privacy, picket and rail fencing suit properties so you can make an informed decision.
Pre-Installation Prep Work
Once you’ve signed off on the quote and selected your preferred fence material and style, we schedule a start date for the demolition and installation work.
Before the crew arrives, we take care of securing all necessary permits for fence replacement projects in the city Ventura. We also call to have underground utility lines marked so we can safely dig post holes without damaging water, gas or electrical lines.
When the start date arrives, our professional installers demolish and haul away debris from the existing damaged fence properly so the new fence can be built in its place. We take care of site prep work like vegetation clearing and grading if needed to create a level foundation.
Fence Installation Process
With the site prepped and ready, it’s time for the most crucial stage – expert installation of the new, replacement fence.
Our crew digs precise post holes based on the fencing layout specifications. For solid anchoring, we pour concrete mix into each hole and slide in the fence posts, verifying they are straight and properly aligned as the concrete cures.
Next, we securely fasten the crossbeams and bottom rails to connect the fence posts. The pickets, panels or other infill sections are then installed onto the framework one section at a time.
For wood fences, we use durable cedar or redwood and apply a protective stain or sealant to defend against termites, fungus and other damage-causing elements.
Our fence builders pay close attention to detail, properly spacing pickets and keeping the heights consistent for optimal aesthetics. We also clean up the site daily, hauling away debris so you avoid an messy premises.
Throughout the process, we ensure strict quality control checks so your replacement fence exceeds durability, security, safety and appearance standards for long-lasting performance.
Gates, Hardware and Accessories
No fence is complete without the right gates and hardware like latches, caps and lights.
We offer single and double gates made of steel, aluminum, vinyl and wood to match your new fence. Choose self-closing hinges, key locks and other accessories to enhance functionality.
For wood fences, we can incorporate arbors, benches and planter boxes. Wrought iron fences often feature ornate finial tops and scrolling for added styling. We can decorate vinyl or composite fences with post caps and solar caps to emit soft glows at night.
Let us know if you want to incorporate any special gates, hardware or decorative accents into your replacement fence.

You also get our exclusive workmanship warranty. We guarantee all labor and installation practices for up to 5 years after fence replacement project completion.

FAQs About Fence Replacement in Ventura
Do I need a permit for fence replacement?
Yes, the city Ventura requires permits for fence installations higher than 6 feet tall. We take care of pulls permits on behalf of homeowners so you avoid headaches. Permit fees apply based on project scope.
Should rotted fence posts be replaced or repaired?
It’s best to replace rotting posts rather than attempt repairs. Wood hardens when exposed to moisture and weather, making screws less effective. Removing and replacing with new posts ensures structural integrity.
How long does it take to replace an existing fence?
The fence replacement process typically takes between 3 days to 2 weeks from start to finish. The duration depends on fence size, material, terrain, weather delays and other factors. Get in touch for project time estimates.
What is the best wood for an outdoor fence?
Cedar and redwood are ideal woods for exterior fencing in Ventura’s coastal climate. The natural oils make these woods resistant to rot, bugs, moisture and weathering. We use durable construction grade cedar/redwood cut precisely to size.
How much does it cost to replace a chain link fence?
In Ventura, you can expect to pay $20 to $30 per linear foot to have an old chain link fence replaced with a brand new one. Cost escalates for taller fences or galvanized steel over basic chain link.
What is more cost effective – wood fence repair or replacement?
If more than 25% of your wood fence shows signs of decay, replacement is more cost effective than attempting extensive repairs. Repairs may fail quicker than newly installed pressure-treated lumber designed to withstand warping.
What size hole is needed for fence posts?
We dig holes 12″- 18” wide based on the fence post width. For proper stability, hole depth is 1/3 the total post height (a 6 foot post requires minimum 2 foot depth). We fill with concrete and allow full curing before installing panels.
How much does it cost to replace existing posts without replacing the whole fence?
Plan for $75 – $150 per fence post replacement. This covers demolition and disposal of damaged posts plus installation of new, pressure-treated 4×4 posts set in concrete. Contact us for exact pricing based on number and type of posts needing replacement.
Should neighbors share the cost of a replacement fence?
There are no laws forcing neighbors to split replacement fencing expenses. But it’s courteous to share costs and responsibility for maintenance when a fence borders a property line. A discussion about needs, preferred materials, budgets and timing can steer agreements.
How long does pressure-treated wood last?
With proper installation and upkeep, a pressure-treated wood fence lasts 10-15 years on average before needing full replacement. Apply protective sealants right after install and every 2 years to maximize lifespan. Consider composite or vinyl if you want 20+ years between replacements.
