Fontana's rapid growth from post-war tract housing into newer subdivisions means your fence line tells a story. Whether you're looking at an aging wood run that's taken a beating from our dry summers and wet winters, or planning a new vinyl install on a freshly graded lot, Riverside Fence Company knows the terrain and the code here.

Since 2014, we've installed and repaired fences across Fontana (92335) and the surrounding Riverside area. We work from honest assessments, not sales pitches. If your fence can be repaired, we'll say so. If it needs replacement, we'll explain why and price it fairly.

Fencing in Fontana (92335): What We See

Fontana's lots vary sharply. You might have a gently sloped single-family lot in one of the older neighborhoods near the freeway, or a steeper property in the newer subdivisions pushing toward the foothills. That variation matters for how we set posts and whether we install racked or stepped. Wet winters swell the soil and work posts loose over years. Dry summers and strong UV exposure age exposed wood and coatings fast. Wind exposure shifts lot to lot, so anti-sag bracing isn't a one-size-fits-all call.

Our crews have been setting posts and hanging gates in Fontana long enough to know the drainage patterns, the wind corridors, and the HOA rules that govern height, material, and color in master-planned communities. We work from your existing survey and install on the line you identify. California law requires a utility locate (811) before we dig any post holes, and we handle that as part of the job.

How a Fence Job Works in Fontana

Step 1: Free On-Site Assessment. Call us at (951) 848-5510 or reach out online. We'll visit your property, walk the fence line with you, check for HOA or city setback and height rules, and discuss what you want. If there's storm damage or a leaning fence, we'll document what we see and explain the repair or replacement options. No pressure, no estimate until you ask for one.

Step 2: The Work. Once you approve the scope and price, we order materials and schedule the crew. We pull any required permits (rules vary by jurisdiction in the Riverside area). Our team sets posts in concrete where the soil and slope call for it, hangs rails and pickets or boards straight and square, and installs hardware that works. If you're in a master-planned community, we coordinate with your HOA if needed. We work around your schedule and your property.

Step 3: Cleanup and Walkthrough. When the job is done, we haul off scrap, sweep the site, and walk the finished fence line with you. You'll see exactly what you paid for.

Fence pricing in Fontana depends on what you're building and what's already there. Chain link runs start around $19 per linear foot. Wood privacy fence (cedar or pressure-treated pine) typically runs $32 per linear foot. Vinyl and PVC are more durable in our climate and start around $42 per linear foot. Ornamental metal and aluminum, popular in newer subdivisions, run $48 per linear foot and up. Repairs start at $475 for post work or hardware fixes. A complete fence replacement or removal job typically runs $2,700 and up, depending on the length and material. Gates add $525 for a standard swing gate, and automatic driveway gates start at $3,200. The best way to know what your job will cost is to call us at (951) 848-5510 for a free estimate. We'll walk your property, measure the run, check the soil and slope, and give you a straightforward price.

Why does my wood fence lean or shift in Fontana?
Fontana's wet winters swell the soil and loosen posts set only in tamped earth. Dry summers shrink it back. Over years, that cycle works a post loose. Posts set in concrete stay put. If your fence is leaning but the posts are still sound, we can often reset them in concrete without replacing the boards. If the wood itself is rotted at the ground line (the culprit is moisture, not insects), the post needs replacement. We'll tell you which it is when we inspect.
What should I do if a winter storm brings down a fence run?
Call us right away at (951) 848-5510. We handle storm damage fence repair and can visit quickly to assess the damage. We'll document what we find and explain whether the run can be repaired or needs replacement. If you have homeowners insurance, we can help you document the damage for a claim. Winter winds are common in Fontana, and we're ready to help get your fence back up safely.
Can I install a fence myself, or do I need a contractor?
California requires a C-13 Fencing Contractor license for any fence project that reaches $1,000 in combined labor and materials or requires a building permit. Permit rules vary across the Riverside area and depend on your city and HOA. Even a small fence job can trigger a permit requirement. We carry full insurance (general liability and workers' compensation) and are an AFA Member Installer (American Fence Association). Call us at (951) 848-5510 to learn what applies to your property.
Does Fontana require a permit for a new fence?
Permit rules vary by city and county in the Riverside area. Fontana has its own setback, height, and material rules set by the city. Master-planned communities often have stricter HOA standards. Before you build, check with the Fontana Building Department and your HOA (if you have one). We'll help you understand what's required and pull the permit if one is needed.
My HOA says my fence height or color doesn't meet the rules. What are my options?
HOA architectural standards are binding on your property. If your fence doesn't meet them, you have two paths: request a variance from the HOA (sometimes possible if you can show hardship or community benefit), or modify the fence to comply. We can help you redesign the fence to meet the rules while keeping the look you want. Call us at (951) 848-5510 to discuss what's feasible.
Is Riverside Fence Company fully insured?
Yes. We carry full general liability and workers' compensation insurance. We're happy to provide a certificate of insurance on request. We're also an AFA Member Installer (American Fence Association), which means our work meets professional standards.
What's the best time of year to install a fence in Fontana?
Late spring through early autumn is the main installation window. The ground is dry enough to set posts properly, and the weather is stable. Winter brings rain and saturated soil, which makes it harder to set posts in concrete and can delay the job. That said, we work year-round between storms. If you need a repair or replacement urgently, call us at (951) 848-5510.
