Frequently Asked Questions

What types of fencing materials do you offer for residential properties in Petaluma?

We offer wood, vinyl, and chain link fencing for residential properties. For homes with acreage or livestock, we also install agricultural and livestock-friendly fencing. Each material has its own benefits—wood provides a classic look, vinyl is low maintenance, and chain link is durable and cost-effective. We can help you choose what best fits your property and budget.

How do you prevent fence post movement and gate misalignment in Petaluma's soil?

Petaluma's clay-rich soil can shift over time, causing fence posts to move and gates to sag. We address this by setting posts in concrete with a gravel base for drainage. For gates, we use heavy-duty hinges and adjustable tension rods to compensate for any settling. We also recommend periodic checks—catching small shifts early prevents bigger problems down the road.

Can you build retaining walls as part of a fencing project?

Absolutely. We build retaining walls using concrete blocks, timbers, or stone to manage sloped terrain and prevent erosion. Often, these walls are integrated with fencing to create a unified boundary for your property. Whether you need a wall to support a driveway or hold back a hillside, we have the experience to handle it.

Our Story

Pruett Fence Co is a family-owned fencing contractor with deep roots in Petaluma, California. With years of experience in the fencing industry, we specialize in a full range of fencing solutions: agricultural, residential, livestock, vinyl, wood, and chain link fencing, plus retaining walls. Whether you need a new installation or a repair, our local team knows the area well. One challenge we often see in Petaluma is fence post movement caused by the region's expansive clay soils—this can lead to leaning posts and gate misalignment. We handle this by using proper concrete footings and gravel drainage, and by adjusting gate hardware so it swings freely even after the ground settles. We serve clients across Petaluma, from neighborhoods near the historic Petaluma Adobe State Park to the areas around the Petaluma River and downtown. As a neighborly, locally owned business, we take pride in delivering long-lasting fencing that stands up to Sonoma County's conditions. Call us today for a free estimate.
