Fence Installation & Repair services in Santa Monica
Salt is the first thing we plan for in Santa Monica. The marine layer rolls in most mornings from late spring into summer, and anything steel within a mile or so of the beach starts to show rust at cut ends and fasteners unless it is galvanized or coated well. Aluminum, vinyl and stainless hardware hold up better here than plain steel. Lots are small and close together, from the cottages of Ocean Park to the wider parcels north of Montana Avenue, so most fence lines are shared and many back onto an alley. Hedges are a big part of privacy in this city and have their own height rules. The ground is mostly level and sandy near the coast, which digs easily but needs a deeper footing for a solid fence that catches the afternoon sea breeze.
