Fencing Company Los Angeles CA | Call Stronghold Fence

Chain link fences in Los Angeles often corrode due to salt from coastal air and heavy sun exposure. Over time, the galvanized coating wears away, leading to rust. Our solution includes replacing corroded sections with new, heavy-gauge galvanized chain link, applying a rust inhibitor, and using stainless steel ties. For long-lasting results, we recommend vinyl-coated chain link or powder-coated aluminum, which resist UV damage and salt much better.

Cracking in wood fence panels is common in LA because of intense heat and low humidity, which dry the wood unevenly. If panels are installed too tight without expansion gaps, they crack. We solve this by using pressure-treated cedar or redwood, installing panels with proper spacing, and applying a penetrating oil finish rather than just a surface stain. For areas with full sun, we often suggest composite materials or vinyl to avoid cracking altogether.

For yards in Sherman Oaks that get intense afternoon sun, we recommend vinyl or aluminum fencing. Both materials resist warping, cracking, and fading—common issues with wood under UV exposure. If you want privacy, we install vinyl privacy fences (6 feet tall) with UV-stabilized panels that won't yellow. Aluminum fences can be paired with bamboo screening for a natural look that lasts. Either way, we use rust-proof hardware to handle the heat.
