FAQs
How does Anderson Fence address common local fencing issues like soil erosion around fence posts in Chico?
Chico’s soil composition can shift, especially after heavy rain or dry spells, causing fence posts to loosen. We combat this by using concrete footings that extend below the frost line and adding gravel for drainage. For areas prone to erosion, we recommend deeper post holes and occasionally install post anchors that offer extra stability. This approach keeps your fence standing straight and secure for years.
What types of fence materials do you offer for residential properties in Chico?
We work with wood, vinyl, chain link, and ornamental iron. For homes near Bidwell Park or in the California Park neighborhood, we often suggest vinyl or ornamental for low-maintenance durability. If you want a classic look that blends with Chico’s older homes near downtown, treated wood is a popular choice. We’ll help you pick what fits your property and budget.
Can you repair an automatic gate that’s not opening or closing properly?
Yes, we handle automatic gate repairs for both residential and commercial clients. Common issues include misaligned sensors, worn-out motors, or damaged control boards. We’ll diagnose the problem on-site and replace parts as needed. Since we also install new automatic gates, we can upgrade your system if repairs aren’t cost-effective.

Business Profile
Rick Anderson, a lifelong resident of Chico, CA, brings a deep-rooted work ethic and integrity to every fencing project. Growing up in a family of brick masons, he learned the value of craftsmanship early. After a 23-year career in automotive repair, a medical condition led him to a new path—installing fences. Starting in 1998, a simple post replacement led to a referral from a local general contractor, and by 2007, Anderson Fence was born. Licensed with the California Contractors Licensing Board (#926365), Rick and his two employees serve residential, commercial, and industrial clients throughout Northern California. They specialize in designing, installing, removing, and repairing all standard fencing materials—wood, vinyl, chain link, and ornamental—as well as livestock fencing and security gates. After weathering the 2008 recession, the company has built a reputation for reliability and custom solutions. A member of the North Valley Animal Disaster Group and accredited by the BBB, Anderson Fence provides free estimates and stands behind its work.
