Wood Fences in Sacramento
Vertical, horizontal and board-on-board designs
Build a wood fence with the right species, posts, fasteners, gate framing and finish plan for Sacramento sun, seasonal rain and everyday use.
Wood fencing is flexible, repairable and highly customizable
A wood fence can follow grade changes, create full privacy and match both traditional and modern homes. The details that make it last are less visible: sound posts, correct clearances, compatible fasteners, protected end grain and room for boards to move as moisture changes.
We offer familiar vertical privacy, horizontal, board-on-board, dog-ear, cap-board and lattice-top concepts. Material and style are selected together so the finished fence fits the property and the maintenance plan is realistic.
A better fence starts below the finish
Vertical privacy
A classic, efficient layout that works with dog-ear, flat-top, cap-board and trim details.
Horizontal fencing
A modern look that requires carefully spaced posts and framing to control long horizontal runs.
Board-on-board
Overlapping boards improve visual privacy as lumber naturally expands and contracts.
Wood or metal posts
Post selection affects appearance, repair strategy and long-term exposure at the soil line.
Match the fence to the way the property is used
Confirm property lines, utilities and local requirements
Fence standards can change by jurisdiction, location on the lot, height, easements, HOA rules and visibility conditions. The City of Sacramento lists fences in its permit guidance and directs property owners to applicable planning standards. Verify the project address and final design before work begins.

How is a fence estimate prepared?
A useful estimate starts with the approximate linear footage, property access, grade changes, removal needs, material, height, gate count and finish details. An on-site review confirms the measurements and conditions that affect the complete scope.
Do fences need permits in Sacramento?
Permit and planning requirements depend on height, location, zoning, visibility areas, easements and the jurisdiction for the property. The City of Sacramento currently lists fences among regulated work and notes an exemption for certain fences not over seven feet, while still requiring compliance with planning standards. Always verify the address and design before construction.
Can you remove and dispose of an old fence?
Yes. Removal and disposal can be included after the existing fence, access and any shared-boundary conditions are reviewed. We separate demolition from the new installation scope so the estimate is clear.
