Wind, roots and age. Altadena sits right under the San Gabriels, and the windstorms that come down the canyons in the fall and winter take the weakest section first. Big oaks push runs out of line from below, older fences stand on posts set in soil long ago, and on the larger lots horses lean on fences every day. The fix is new posts in concrete and matched boards, not a new fence.
Altadena is unincorporated Los Angeles County: a front-yard fence is held to 42 inches, side and rear fences to six feet, and the county asks for a building permit over six feet. Altadena's community standards add that a front fence over 42 inches keeps live plants between it and the street. A like-for-like repair changes nothing.
Reset posts and matching pickets fix most fences for a fraction of the cost of a new one, and that is the work we do. Whole-fence replacement, vinyl and iron are not our lane. If that is what the fence needs, we say so on the call, and we still fix the gate and the sections that can be saved.
A pool gate should close and latch on its own, with the latch release at least 60 inches up. That is the standard in California's Swimming Pool Safety Act, and it is the first thing we check on a pool fence. The gap the dog found at the bottom is a rail and a picket, fixed in the same visit.
First in line for the windstorms off the mountains. Sections go over and gates rip off their hinges. We rebuild sections on the existing posts, reset the ones that moved and rehang gates on stronger hardware. On the streets the 2025 Eaton fire reached, we fix the gates and the sections that came through, and say so on the call when a rebuild is a fence contractor's job.
Larger lots, old oaks and long runs, some with horses. Roots push the line out and a rotted post lets a section rack. We reset the posts deeper and re-plumb the run around the roots.
Older homes with picket and board fences on posts set long ago. The posts go at grade while the boards look fine. We reset the posts and match the style of the house so the repair reads as original.
We price the repair on the call, in writing, before anything is scheduled.
Posts, rails, pickets, hardware and concrete come along, so a post reset, a picket swap or a gate rehang is usually finished on the first visit.
A gate that is done gets a new single wood gate built on site, up to four feet wide. A fallen section is rebuilt on the existing posts.
The work area is cleaned before we leave, and every repair carries our one-year workmanship warranty.
Altadena is unincorporated Los Angeles County: a fence or wall in a required front yard is held to 42 inches and side and rear fences to six feet, and the county asks for a building permit for a fence over six feet. Altadena's community standards district adds that a front-yard fence over 42 inches keeps live plants between it and the street, and rules out barbed wire and bare chain link out front. A like-for-like repair changes nothing.
California's Swimming Pool Safety Act expects a pool barrier gate to close and latch on its own, with the latch release at least 60 inches above the ground. If your pool gate drags open or the latch no longer catches, that is the first thing we fix.
Most of Altadena has no association. A new gate, a new section or a different stain on a shared fence is worth agreeing with the neighbor, and we can give you the materials and finish in writing for it.

Call 747-298-8227We answer in under three rings, price most fence and gate repairs on the call, and usually schedule within days. The technician brings posts, rails, pickets, hardware and concrete, so a post reset, a picket swap or a gate rehang is finished in one visit.
Yes. Most fence and gate repairs are exactly handyman work: posts, rails, pickets, hinges and latches. Kaminskiy is licensed, bonded and insured, so a rebuilt section or a new gate is not a problem either.
It depends on three things: how many posts have failed, how much wood needs replacing, and how easy the fence is to reach. Tell us what the fence is doing, or text a photo, and we give you the price on the call, in writing, before anything is scheduled. No surprises at the house.
Yes. A section that went over is rebuilt on the existing posts, a leaning run is re-plumbed and braced, and a gate is rehung on hardware that holds. Tell us what went over and we price it on the call.
No. We repair wood fences and gates: posts, pickets, rails, sections, gates and staining. Whole-fence replacement, vinyl fencing, iron work and electric gate openers are not our lane. If your fence needs one of those, we tell you on the call and still fix what can be saved.
Not a like-for-like repair. Altadena is unincorporated Los Angeles County, which asks for a building permit only over six feet, and keeps a front-yard fence to 42 inches unless the yard is planted between it and the street. We tell you on the call if a new fence needs more.
