Serving Tracy, CA and surrounding areas. (209) 699-5861
A fence designed around your lot, your neighbors, and Tracy's ground conditions - not a standard panel pulled off a shelf.
Custom fence design in Tracy means a contractor visits your property, measures your lot, and builds a plan that fits your specific yard - most design consultations take under an hour, and most installations are completed in one to three days once materials are on hand and permits are approved.
A lot of Tracy homeowners come to us after a standard fence has failed - boards that split from the summer heat, posts that shifted in the clay soil, or a design that simply did not work for their lot's slopes and corners. If your existing fence has reached that point, our pool fence installation and other specialty services are all available as part of a complete yard plan.
You do not need to know anything about fencing going into the consultation. You just need to know what you want the fence to do - privacy, pet containment, curb appeal, or a combination - and we will translate that into a material and design that fits your budget and lasts in Tracy's climate.
If you can see gaps between boards, posts that tilt when you push them, or wood that has cracked along the grain, the fence is past the point of simple repairs. In Tracy's climate, wood that has gone through several cycles of summer heat and winter rain without proper sealing deteriorates faster than most homeowners expect - and a fence that looks borderline today can become a safety issue within a season.
Many newer homes in Tracy's master-planned communities are delivered with completely open side and rear yard lines. If you have kids, pets, or simply want privacy, getting a custom fence designed early - before you are living with the open yard - means you can plan it properly rather than rushing into a decision.
If your lot has a grade change, a large tree near the fence line, or an irregular shape, a standard pre-built panel system will leave gaps, look uneven, or require awkward workarounds. Custom design solves this by building the fence to your specific terrain rather than asking your terrain to accommodate a standard product.
If your HOA has flagged your existing fence, or if you want to install one and are not sure what will be approved, we can design something that meets the guidelines the first time. For homeowners preparing to sell, a custom fence that fits the style of the home and neighborhood changes the first impression buyers get before they even step inside.
We work in wood, vinyl, aluminum, and ornamental iron - and the right choice depends on your goals, your budget, and what will hold up in Tracy's climate. Wood gives you warmth and flexibility but needs regular sealing to survive the summer heat. Vinyl and powder-coated aluminum require almost no maintenance and resist the heat well, making them a practical choice for Tracy homeowners who do not want to reapply sealant every couple of years. For decorative applications around pools or front yards, our ornamental iron fence installation service gives you a high-end look with long-term durability.
Every custom design includes a site visit to measure your fence line and note any slopes, trees, gates, or obstacles that affect the plan. We handle permit applications and HOA documentation if your project requires them, and we give you a written, itemized quote before any work begins. For homeowners who need a specific enclosure - like a safety fence around a backyard pool - our pool fence installation service is designed to meet California's pool barrier requirements while still looking like it belongs in your yard.
Right for homeowners who want a natural look and are willing to seal or stain every two to three years to handle Tracy's summer heat.
Right for homeowners who want low maintenance and strong resistance to heat, UV, and moisture without painting or sealing.
Right for front yards, pool enclosures, or any homeowner who wants a decorative fence that holds up without rusting or requiring paint.
Right for yards where different sections have different needs - like a wood privacy fence along the back and an aluminum decorative fence along the front.
Tracy has a wide range of neighborhood styles - from older blocks near downtown with smaller lots and mixed wood fencing, to newer master-planned communities in the west and northwest where stucco walls, wrought iron, and vinyl are the norm. A custom fence that looks right in one part of town can look completely out of place in another. We know the difference, and we will help you choose a design that fits your street rather than standing out for the wrong reasons. Homeowners in Manteca and Mountain House face similar soil and HOA conditions, and we bring the same approach to every project across the valley.
Tracy's clay-heavy soil is the most important factor most homeowners do not know to ask about. It swells when it rains and shrinks during the dry summer - and that seasonal movement pushes posts out of alignment if they are not set at the right depth in adequate concrete. Many of the fences we replace failed not because the material was wrong, but because the posts were set too shallow for Tracy's ground. Every custom design we build starts with post specifications matched to your specific soil conditions - that is what separates a fence that stays straight for decades from one that starts leaning within a few years.
We start with a short phone or email conversation - not a sales pitch. We ask about your property, what you want the fence to do, and your rough budget. Be honest about both your goals and what you want to spend; it saves everyone time and makes the site visit more productive.
We visit your property, walk the fence line, take measurements, and note anything that affects the design - slopes, trees, gate placement, neighboring structures. This visit usually takes 30 to 60 minutes, and you will walk away with a clear picture of your options and what each one costs.
For most Tracy fence projects over standard height, we submit the permit application to the City of Tracy Building Division on your behalf. If your neighborhood has an HOA, we prepare the documentation for architectural review. This step typically adds one to three weeks to the timeline - we will give you a realistic estimate and keep you updated.
The crew marks post locations, digs the holes, sets posts in concrete at the depth your soil requires, and builds the fence panels. Most standard Tracy backyards take one to two days. We clean up completely and walk the finished fence with you before we leave to confirm everything matches what was agreed.
Free on-site consultation, no obligation. We reply within one business day.
(209) 699-5861Most early fence failures trace back to posts not set with the local soil in mind. Every custom fence we build specifies post depth and concrete footing based on Tracy's expansive clay - the factor that separates a fence that lasts decades from one that starts leaning within a few years. The UC Agriculture and Natural Resources program documents the soil and climate conditions we build for across the Central Valley.
A large share of Tracy's newer neighborhoods are governed by HOAs with specific fence requirements. We prepare and submit the documentation needed for architectural review - so you do not have to navigate the process yourself or risk a rejected application after you have already picked your materials. We know what Tracy's associations typically require and how to present the plan correctly.
You get a clear, itemized written quote before any work begins. No verbal agreements, no "we will figure it out as we go." If there is a scope change during the project, we talk to you before changing the price. The goal is no surprises on installation day and no arguments about what was agreed to.
Tracy's neighborhoods each have their own character - what looks right in a newer west-side subdivision looks different from what fits near downtown. We have worked throughout Tracy long enough to know the difference, and we will steer you toward a design that adds to your home's curb appeal rather than standing out for the wrong reasons.
Every one of these proof points comes back to the same thing: a fence that was designed with your specific yard, your neighborhood, and Tracy's ground conditions in mind. That is what makes it custom - and that is what makes it last.
