SANTA CLARA · PROJECT PLANNING
Consider the streetscape in the Old Quad and Agnew Village
Santa Clara’s Community Design Guidelines describe the Old Quad as the city’s historic core and note a similar historical character in Agnew Village. For a fence visible from the street, include the front entry, walkway and landscaping in your photos. We can then discuss how the new boundary fits the home, as well as the privacy it provides from inside the yard.
Protect access around trees and paving
Before requesting replacement, photograph mature landscaping, paved edges and the space around the existing posts. These details help explain how the old fence can be removed and the new posts installed. Tell us what should remain in place so that access and the proposed layout are discussed before work starts.
Agree on a shared fence line first
If the boundary is shared, discuss its position, the finished appearance on each side and access with your neighbor. Mark separate runs and any gate openings in your measurements. If you are unsure of the property line, resolve it before authorizing construction rather than using the old fence as proof of the boundary.
Keep a good gate, or replace it together
An existing gate that still works may be worth retaining, subject to the supporting posts and new fence layout. If it also needs replacement, the tool has a standard 6-by-4-foot wooden gate option. Existing wood fence removal and hauling are included in the standard fence estimate; other materials and unusual site work need review.
Before you book
Does the estimate include removing my existing wood fence?
Yes. Existing wooden fence removal and hauling are included in the standard fence estimate. Other structures or unusual access are reviewed before confirmation.
Can we keep an existing gate that still works?
We can discuss retaining it if the posts and replacement layout allow. Tell us which parts you want to keep and send a photo.
What if the fence is next to mature landscaping?
Show trees, planting beds and paving near the posts in your photos. We discuss access and the proposed work before agreeing on the scope.
Tell us what needs work.
Start with your project type, fence length or number of standard gates, and city. The tool collects your contact details so we can email the estimate and follow up to confirm the work.
The free tool is a starting estimate for standard pressure-treated wood and the listed dimensions. We confirm measurements, access and the agreed scope before work. Other woods, styles, heights and nonstandard openings need a separate quote.
