How to Choose the Right Fence for Your Property in Claremont, CA

Here’s how we help customers pick the right fence:

Step 1: Identify your top priority

• Privacy: Go with redwood or vinyl. A 6’ solid panel redwood fence costs around $45–$60 per foot installed.
  
• Low maintenance: Vinyl is best. Expect $50–$70 per foot for a clean, white vinyl install.
  
• Security or pet containment: Chain link with privacy slats works well. It’s budget-friendly—$25–$35 per foot.
  

Step 2: Know the local code

In Claremont, backyard fences can be up to 6 feet without a permit. Anything taller, or any fence in the front yard, needs city approval. Corner lots have stricter visibility rules.

Step 3: Ask what lasts in this climate

• Wood needs re-staining every 2–3 years.
  
• Vinyl resists sun fading and can last 10x longer than any wood fence, but some don't like the look and it does come with an extra cost.
  
• Wrought iron looks great, but needs touch-up painting for rust spots.
