    Common Questions

    Frequently Asked
    Questions

    What does ranch fencing cost?
    It comes down to total footage, the number of gates, whether you need post-and-rail, split-rail or no-climb wire, and how the ground lays out. Acreage runs vary a lot more than a backyard fence, so rather than quote a number over the phone, we come out, measure the run and give you a firm written price — free, and with no obligation.
    Which areas do you cover?
    We cover Truckee, Tahoe City, South Lake Tahoe, Incline Village, Kings Beach, Olympic Valley, Tahoma, Homewood, Carnelian Bay, Meyers, Stateline, Alpine Meadows and the surrounding Lake Tahoe Basin. If your town isn’t listed, call anyway and we’ll tell you straight whether we can get to you.
    Do you install both post-and-rail and wire fencing?
    Yes. We build post-and-rail and split-rail fencing, plus no-climb woven wire and wire ranch fencing for livestock containment — often a combination on the same property.
    Can you fence large or multi-acre properties?
    Yes. Acreage and rural boundary runs are a regular part of what we build, not a special case. We plan post spacing, bracing and material logistics for long, straight runs before the first hole is dug.
    Do you install fencing that safely contains horses and livestock?
    Yes. No-climb woven wire and correctly spaced rail fencing are both built to keep horses and livestock in and predators out, with hardware and spacing suited to what you’re containing.
    How do you handle sloped or uneven rural ground?
    Rail and wire lines are stepped or raked to follow the grade so the fence stays functional and square across slopes, drainage cuts and uneven terrain, rather than following the ground badly.
    Do I need a permit for ranch or agricultural fencing?
    Requirements vary by jurisdiction — height limits, setbacks and approved styles differ between the Town of Truckee, South Lake Tahoe, unincorporated El Dorado/Placer County and TRPA-regulated lots, and agricultural or ranch fencing can carry different rules than a residential privacy fence. We’ll tell you what applies to your property at the estimate so there are no surprises after the posts are in.
    Are you licensed and insured?
    Yes. Lewis Fence Co. is a licensed California C-13 fence contractor, CSLB #1150575, bonded and insured on every job.
