Tempe's 1960s and 70s ranch neighborhoods around ASU run on block walls, not wood fences, but where wood and chain link do go up, they face a hard local reality: caliche-heavy soil, relentless UV, and monsoon winds that test every post and hinge.

Since 2015, Chandler Fence Company has repaired and installed fencing across Tempe and the surrounding Chandler area. We know the soil, the sun, and the code. When your fence leans, drags, or blows down, we show up with honest repair options and real local crews.

Fencing in Tempe (85281): What Works Here

Tempe's residential blocks sit on caliche, a cemented hardpan that makes digging post holes slow and sometimes demands an auger or jackhammer. That's not a surprise to us, and it's built into how we estimate and schedule. The desert sun is the other defining fact: untreated wood splits and fades, powder coating fades faster than it corrodes, and failure is dry, not wet. A post fails by loosening and splitting at the ground line, not by rotting. Chain link, wood privacy fences for side yards and pool enclosures, vinyl, and ornamental metal all have their place here. Gates and automatic driveway gates handle the monsoon season better when they are installed right the first time.

We have served Tempe homeowners, property managers, and rental operators since 2015. Our crews know the local building department rules, HOA architectural standards in master-planned communities, and the Arizona 811 utility locate requirement that protects your water, gas, and electric lines before we dig.

How a Fence Job Works in Tempe

Step 1: Free On-Site Assessment. Call us at (623) 600-7122 or contact us online. We visit your property, look at the fence line, the soil, access, and any HOA or city setback and height rules. We listen to what you want and tell you what will hold up here. If repair is the smarter choice, we say so.

Step 2: The Work. We call 811 for a utility locate before any digging. We set posts in concrete, space them right, and account for caliche. For wood, we use pressure-treated pine or cedar depending on your budget and look. For vinyl, chain link, aluminum, or ornamental iron, we follow the same standard: square, plumb, and built to last. We handle racked installation on slopes, board-on-board or side-by-side layouts, and all gate hardware, including self-closing self-latching hinges and automatic operators.

Step 3: Cleanup and Walkthrough. We haul our debris, leave your property clean, and walk the fence line with you. You know exactly what you got.

Fence pricing in Tempe depends on material, linear footage, and site conditions. Chain link runs from $16 per linear foot. Wood privacy fence starts at $27 per linear foot.

For an honest quote on your job, call (623) 600-7122 and describe what you need. We will give you a free estimate and explain the cost.

Why does my wood fence split and loosen at the post line instead of rotting like fences in other places?

Tempe's desert climate is dry, not humid. Wood fails here by UV damage, splitting, and loosening at the ground line, not by rot. Untreated wood degrades fast in the sun. Pressure-treated pine and sealed cedar hold better, but even they need re-sealing on a shorter cycle than wood in wetter climates. A post set in concrete, not tamped soil, resists loosening from wind and ground movement.

A monsoon wind knocked down a section of my fence. What do I do?

Call us right away at (623) 600-7122. We handle storm damage fence repair and can visit your property to assess what happened. We document the damage, which helps if you file an insurance claim. We can help you understand what to show your insurance company. Repair or replacement depends on how many posts are broken and whether the rails are salvageable. We price storm work honestly and do not use fear to sell replacement when repair is the better choice.

My fence is in an HOA community. Do I need approval before I repair or replace it?

Yes, in most master-planned communities in the greater Chandler area, deed restrictions and HOA architectural standards govern fence height, material, color, and style. Check your HOA rules or contact your architectural review board before you call us. We work from whatever survey or property line you identify and install within the setback and height rules your HOA and the city of Tempe require. If you are unsure of the rules, ask your HOA first.

My pool fence is old and wobbly. Do I need a new one, or can it be repaired?

We inspect pool barriers and give you an honest answer. If posts are loose or rails are cracked, repair may hold. If the fence is severely damaged or does not meet current pool barrier code, replacement is the right move. Pool fencing is installed to meet local pool barrier codes, but final determination of compliance rests with the city of Tempe or the authority having jurisdiction. We do not certify compliance, but we build to code.

I want to install a gate at the end of my driveway. What are my options?

We install manual swing gates, cantilever gates for slopes, and V-track gates. We also install automatic driveway gate operators. A manual gate costs less and needs no power. An automatic operator runs from $2,800 and up, depending on the gate type, the opener, and whether you want remote control or a keypad. We handle all the hardware, hinges, latches, and bracing. Call (623) 600-7122 to discuss what fits your driveway and budget.

Are you insured for fence work in Tempe?

Yes. We carry general liability and workers' compensation insurance. We can provide a certificate of insurance on request. We are fully insured for all fence installation, repair, and gate work.

What is the best time of year to install a fence in Tempe?

Winter and spring are the most comfortable working seasons, and demand stays high through them. Midsummer heat compresses the working day, but we install year-round because the ground does not freeze. The monsoon season from June through September brings microbursts and dust storms that can damage new or existing fences. If you are planning a fence, fall and winter give you the best conditions. If you need emergency repair after a storm, we respond whenever you call.
