Jay Birds Custom Redwood Fences & Gates | Local Fence Builders in West Hills, CA

In West Hills, soil erosion can loosen fence posts over time. During installation, we dig deeper post holes and use concrete footings to anchor posts securely. For existing fences, we can reinforce posts with additional concrete or replace them with posts set in erosion-resistant bases. We also recommend proper drainage solutions to redirect water away from fence lines, helping your fence stay sturdy for years.

Yes, gate misalignment is a common issue we fix regularly. It often happens due to shifting soil or worn hinges. We realign the gate by adjusting the hinges, tightening hardware, or replacing damaged posts. If the gate frame is warped, we can rebuild it with select redwood to ensure smooth operation. We also check the latch and lock for a secure fit.

We primarily use select redwood, which naturally resists decay and insects, making it ideal for staining or painting. For staining, we apply a high-quality exterior stain that penetrates the wood and enhances its grain. For painting, we use a durable exterior paint that bonds well with the wood. We also offer weatherproofing treatments to protect against West Hills' sun and occasional rain.
