Three Steps to a New Fence
Call or send the form
Say what the fence is for, roughly how long the line is, and the material you have in mind. A gate or two, a dog, a pool, a neighbor to share with. Thirty seconds is enough.
Free on-site quote
A licensed local contractor comes out, measures the line, checks the soil and the access, and talks through the options. You get a written price per foot and a total.
The fence goes up
Most yards are a two to three day job once materials are on site. Posts in concrete one day, panels the next, gates hung, yard cleaned. The contractor you met is the one who builds it.

Why a Woodland Fence Is Its Own Job
Woodland sits on heavy valley clay that swells in the winter rain and shrinks in the summer heat. That movement is what leans fence posts across town, from the 1960s ranch homes north of Main Street to the newer lots in Spring Lake. The contractors in this network set posts deeper than the lumber yard chart says, keep the concrete below grade so water does not sit against the wood, and use three rails on a six foot fence so the delta breeze that comes in every summer evening does not rack it.
The other half of a Woodland fence is the rules. The City sets height limits that differ for front yards, side yards and corner lots, some neighborhoods have HOA standards on material and color, and a fence on a shared property line brings in California’s Good Neighbor Fence law, which presumes both owners share the cost after written notice. A contractor who works here every week knows all three and quotes inside them. The fence law page covers the neighbor side in plain words.
Outside the city limits, the job changes again. Yolo County is farm and ranch ground, and acreage around Woodland, Esparto, Zamora and Knights Landing gets field fence, no-climb horse fence, post and rail and ranch gates built with a post driver and a tractor, not a yard crew’s wheelbarrow. That work is on the ranch fencing page.

Woodland Fence FAQs
How much does a fence cost in Woodland?
A six foot redwood privacy fence typically runs $35 to $60 per linear foot installed, so a standard 150 foot back and side yard lands between $5,000 and $9,000. Vinyl is similar, chain link is about half, and iron is more. Every quote is free and comes from a licensed contractor who measures the line.
What is the 7 year fence law in California?
There is no seven year fence law. The search comes from a mix-up with other rules. What California has is the Good Neighbor Fence law, which presumes neighbors share equally in the reasonable cost of a shared boundary fence after 30 days written notice. The fence law page explains it.
Does my neighbor have to pay half?
Under the Good Neighbor Fence law the presumption is an equal split of a reasonable cost, and the way to make it work is a written quote handed to the neighbor with notice. It is a presumption, not a guarantee, and a neighbor can argue they get no benefit. Most Woodland neighbors split a replacement without trouble once they see a fair quote.
Can a handyman repair a fence?
Small repairs, yes. In California, any job over $1,000 in labor and materials needs a licensed contractor, and fence contractors carry a C-13 license, a bond and workers’ compensation. The contractors in this network are licensed, which matters the day someone gets hurt in your yard.
How soon can someone come out?
Quote visits are usually within a few days. Build dates run one to four weeks out depending on the season. Spring and early summer are the busy months in Woodland, so a winter call gets the best dates.
Is Woodland Fencing a contractor?
No. Woodland Fencing is a local referral site. It connects you with independent, licensed fence contractors who work in Woodland and Yolo County. The contractor quotes the job, does the work and warranties it. The site does not build fences and does not charge you anything.
