We’ve been building fences here long enough to know that Santa Clarita isn’t just another LA suburb. The heat, the wind, the fire codes, the HOAs. They all shape what kind of fence belongs on your property. We plan for that from day one.

Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Santa Clarita’s Preferred Fence Installation Company

Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. When you call the office, a live person answers. When we show up in Santa Clarita, the name on the truck matches the name on the contract. That matters in a city where plenty of homeowners have already been burned by an outfit that quoted one number on the phone and handed them a different invoice at the door.

We don’t do that. Every scope, every material allowance, every change order arrives in writing before work happens. The allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date, and you won’t find surprises on our jobs. We pull permits on every eligible fence project in Santa Clarita and we sit with the inspector until it’s signed off. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, which is exactly why I like having him on the job.

Our Fence Installation team has built and repaired everything from simple chain link along Soledad Canyon Road to custom iron gates in Valencia’s gated communities. We carry background-checked crew members who wear the Barrett & Sons name on their shirts. Every completed job is backed by our 90-Day Done Right Promise, written on the contract, not buried in fine print. If something’s not right, Tom comes back. One call.

Our Fence Installation Services in Santa Clarita

Wood Fence

Wood remains the most common fence we build in Santa Clarita, especially in the 1980s and 1990s tract-home neighborhoods of Saugus and Canyon Country. Redwood and cedar hold up well here if the posts are set deep enough, but the real challenge is the heat. Lumber that dries too fast after installation can check and warp. We use pressure-treated posts, galvanized hardware, and schedule builds to avoid the worst of the July and August sun when we can.

Chain Link Fence

For side yards, dog runs, and pool enclosures, chain link still makes sense. It costs less and it handles the Santa Clarita Valley’s thermal swings without complaint. In Castaic and the older parts of Newhall, we see a lot of chain link that’s been patched together for twenty years. When we replace it, we set new posts in concrete and use heavier gauge fabric than what the big-box stores sell.

Vinyl Fence

Vinyl fence installation in Santa Clarita runs toward the middle of our price range, and it’s a good match for the HOA-governed neighborhoods in Valencia and Stevenson Ranch. Vinyl doesn’t rot, doesn’t need painting, and it shrugs off the UV exposure that bakes other materials. The catch is expansion. Vinyl moves when the temperature swings from 105 degrees in August to near-freezing on winter nights, so post spacing and rail connection details matter more than most people realize.

Aluminum Fence

Aluminum is the fence we recommend most often for decorative front yards and pool enclosures in Santa Clarita. It looks like wrought iron but won’t rust, which matters in a valley where irrigation overspray and morning dew are constants. A typical aluminum fence installation in Santa Clarita runs $4,000 to $10,000 depending on linear footage and gate count. We also build matching drive gates and pedestrian gates so the whole perimeter reads as one piece.

Trusted Brands We Service in Santa Clarita

We don’t install mystery materials off a van. On fence jobs in Santa Clarita, we work with brands you can look up, including Simonton and Ply Gem for vinyl and aluminum systems, and PGT where impact-rated or high-wind hardware is required. We also offer a Santa Clarita Unilock service for hardscape projects. We keep common components stocked at our Los Angeles yard, which means Santa Clarita customers aren’t waiting on special-order brackets or hinges when a fence gate decides to sag two days before a family gathering.

Common Fence Installation Problems We See in Santa Clarita Homes

• Santa Ana wind damage. The gusts that funnel through the Newhall Pass don’t just threaten roofs. We regularly see fence sections in Canyon Country and Saugus where posts snapped at ground level because they were set in undersized footings. We size our post holes and concrete collars for wind loads, not just aesthetics.
• HOA board approvals. Valencia, Stevenson Ranch, and many Saugus neighborhoods require architectural review before any fence goes in. We’ve helped enough Santa Clarita homeowners navigate those forms to know what boards ask for. We’ll handle the drawings and material specs so your submittal actually gets approved.
• Lot line disputes and paseo easements. In Valencia’s master-planned neighborhoods, the paseo greenbelts that thread behind homes create recorded easements that can shrink a buildable fence line without warning. We check the plot plan against county records before we dig a single post hole.
• Fence rot from irrigation overspray. Sprinklers that hit wood fences every morning will rot the bottoms of pickets and rails within a few years. We set wood fences on pressure-treated kickboards and recommend adjusting sprinkler heads as part of the install, a small step that adds years of life in the Santa Clarita heat.
