Experienced Fence Contractors in San Jose, CA 95116 - Avilas fence

In San Jose, intense summer heat can cause wood fence boards to warp and cup. Avilas Fence addresses this by using kiln-dried lumber with a lower moisture content, proper spacing between boards to allow for expansion, and applying a high-quality weatherproofing sealant. We also recommend annual staining or painting to protect against UV damage. Our team can inspect your existing fence and suggest retrofits like adding horizontal support rails or replacing severely warped panels.

Yes, we install automatic gates for residential driveways, including sliding and swing models. We work with trusted brands and can integrate keypads, remote controls, and safety sensors. Our crew handles the entire process from concrete footings to wiring, ensuring the gate operates smoothly and meets local building codes. We also offer repair services for existing automatic gates, including motor replacement and track adjustments.

Fence discoloration is common in San Jose due to strong UV rays. Avilas Fence can power-wash the surface to remove dirt and faded stains, then apply a fresh coat of stain or paint with UV inhibitors. For wood fences, we recommend a semi-transparent stain that penetrates the grain and provides lasting color. If the discoloration is severe, we can sand or replace affected boards before refinishing. This service restores your fence’s appearance and adds a layer of protection against further fading.
