Knights Landing is a river town. It sits where Highway 113 meets the Sacramento River north of Woodland, behind a levee, with a few hundred homes on small lots and farm ground in every direction. The fences in town are mostly older wood on shared lines, with the same problems any older fence has plus one more: the ground is close to the river and the water table is high through the winter, so posts that were set with their concrete mounded above the soil have rotted at the base faster than they would have in Woodland.
Fences that last here are set differently. Posts go in deep with a gravel base so water drains away from the bottom, the concrete stays below grade and is sloped so it sheds water, and where the line is close to the levee, steel posts are worth the extra cost because they do not care how wet the ground gets. A fence quoted for Knights Landing by a contractor who has built here before includes those details, and it is fair to ask about them.
Outside the town lots the work is farm fence: woven wire on the row crop and orchard parcels, field gates at the road, and the long straight runs on the flat ground between the river and the Yolo Bypass. Ground that floods, or has flooded, needs a fence that can take water standing against it for a week and be hosed off after, which again means wire and wood or steel posts, not vinyl. That work is covered on the ranch fencing page.

Knights Landing Fence FAQs
Is Knights Landing in the service area?
Yes. It is fifteen minutes north of Woodland on Highway 113 and the contractors in this network work there for both town lots and farm parcels.
Why do fence posts rot so fast in Knights Landing?
The water table is high near the river. A post with water sitting at its base for months each winter rots from the soil line down. Deeper holes, a gravel base, concrete kept below grade and, on the wettest lines, steel posts fix it.
Can a fence survive a flood?
Wire fence on wood or steel posts can. Water flows through it and it gets hosed off after. A solid board fence takes the full force of moving water and often does not. For a line that has flooded, the contractor will quote wire.
What fence works on a small river town lot?
The same redwood or chain link fence as anywhere, with the posts set for wet ground. Shared lines are common in town, and the Good Neighbor Fence law applies the same way it does in Woodland.
