Whether your fence is leaning after a wet winter, a gate is dragging on its hinges, or you need a new privacy fence to define your property line, our team knows the work and does it right. We're local, fully insured, and we show up to do the job ourselves, not send a franchise crew.

Fence Installation and Repair in Gresham, 97030

Gresham's housing stock is dominated by single-family homes on modest lots, many with tight side yards and established landscapes. Fences here face real challenges: post bases stay damp long after storms pass, and the flat terrain means water doesn't drain as quickly as it does on the west side. That's why we focus on solid installation practices, proper post setting in concrete, and honest repair before replacement whenever the fence justifies it.

We're AFA Member Installers (American Fence Association), and we've been doing fence work in Gresham and the Portland area for over eight years. Our crews handle wood and vinyl privacy fences, chain link, ornamental metal, gates, and automatic driveway gates. We also specialize in fence post repair and replacement, which is critical work in this area where moisture at the ground line is the main enemy of longevity.

How a Fence Job Works in Gresham

Step 1: Call us at (971) 521-9633 or request a free on-site assessment. We'll walk your property, look at the fence line, check for utility lines (Oregon 811 locates are required by law before we dig), and talk through your options. If you have an existing survey, bring it. If not, we work from the property line you identify.

Step 2: We give you an honest estimate. If your fence can be repaired, we'll say so. If replacement makes more sense, we'll explain why. We handle wood fence staining and restoration, vinyl installation, chain link, ornamental iron, gates, and automatic driveway openers. We also do pool fence installation to meet local barrier codes, fence removal, and storm damage assessment.

Step 3: Our crews do the work, and we leave your property clean. We handle post spacing, proper concrete setting, board-on-board or side-by-side installation, racked or stepped work on slopes, cap and trim, and all the details that make a fence last. Final walkthrough with you, and we're done.

Pricing for fence work in Gresham depends on material, length, and site conditions. Wood and privacy fences start at $32 per linear foot. Vinyl runs from $42 per linear foot. Chain link is the budget option at $19 per linear foot. Ornamental metal and aluminum start at $46 per linear foot. Fence repair work starts at $475, post replacement at $475, gate installation at $495, and automatic driveway gates from $3,100. Pool fencing runs from $37 per linear foot. Fence replacement and removal start at $2,650. Staining and restoration of existing wood fence starts at $1,050. For storm damage, we offer a free damage assessment. The actual cost depends on fence length, material choice, whether posts need replacement, site access, and what utilities are in the way. Call us at (971) 521-9633 for a free estimate.

Why do fence posts fail so quickly in Gresham?

Moisture at the ground line is the culprit. Gresham's long wet season keeps soil damp for weeks after rain, and if a post isn't set deep enough in concrete or if concrete cracks and lets water in, the base rots. We set posts in concrete below grade and make sure drainage is correct. If your post is already failing, we can replace it without replacing the whole fence.

Does Gresham require a fence permit?

Gresham and Multnomah County set their own fence rules on height, setback, and corner visibility. Many residential fences don't need permits, but you should check with the Gresham city building department before you start. If your property is in a master-planned community or HOA, architectural standards may also apply. We can help you navigate the rules, but the building department has the final say.

What should I do about a neighbor's branches hanging over my fence line?

That's a property line question. If branches are on your side of the line, they're yours to trim. If they're on the neighbor's side, you can ask them to trim, or in some cases you can trim back to the property line yourself. If you're not sure where the line is, a licensed land surveyor can determine it. We work from your existing survey or the line you identify, and we install on that line.

How much does it cost to replace a fence in Gresham?

A full fence replacement in Gresham typically starts at $2,650, but the real cost depends on how much fence you're replacing, what material you choose, and whether posts need to come out. A 100-foot wood privacy fence (at $32 per foot) runs about $3,200, plus removal of the old fence. Vinyl costs more per foot but lasts longer. Call us at (971) 521-9633 with your footage and material preference, and we'll give you a real number.

Can you repair my fence instead of replacing it?

Usually, yes. If posts are still solid and rails are straight, we can replace rotted boards or pickets. If a gate is dragging, we can rehang it or repair the hardware. Post replacement starts at $475 and is often cheaper than tearing down and rebuilding. We'll tell you honestly whether repair makes sense or whether replacement is the better spend.

Are your crews fully insured?

Yes. We carry general liability and workers' compensation insurance, and we can provide a certificate of insurance on request. Any damage we cause is covered. If you need to document storm damage to your fence for an insurance claim, we can help with that.

What happens if a storm brings down my fence?

Call us at (971) 521-9633 right away. We offer a free damage assessment and can document what happened for your insurance claim. We'll tell you whether the fence can be repaired or needs replacement. Storm damage repair starts at $475 for post work. We don't estimate costs with fear or urgency, just honest diagnosis and pricing.
