Fence Installation in San Ramon

What San Ramon homeowners should know

The 7-foot lattice-top fence

On the rear and side lines of most properties, a 6-foot solid fence plus 1 foot of open lattice gives the full 7 feet the city allows. We frame the lattice so it stays straight over time.

Front-yard limits

Within the front-yard setback, typically 20 feet from the front property line, fences are limited to 3 feet. We keep front fences low and open so they meet the rule and keep curb appeal.

Matching HOA fence designs

Dougherty Valley HOAs often specify fence style and stain. We replace builder fences with posts set in concrete and match the approved design.
