Custom fences and gates built for homeowners in Northern Colorado
If you live in Northern Colorado and you need a fence or gate that fits your property without cutting corners, Valencia Landscape builds each one to match your layout, your property lines, and the way you actually use your yard. Wind, soil shift, and uneven grades are all part of the work here, and each fence gets built with those conditions in mind so it stays square and solid season after season.
The process starts with measuring your space and talking through what you need the fence to do, whether that means keeping pets contained, blocking a view, or marking a boundary. Then the team selects materials that work with your terrain and assembles each section on site with the kind of attention that shows in how the posts line up and how the gates swing without dragging. You end up with something that looks intentional and works the way it should from the day it goes in.

What Goes Into Building a Fence That Holds Up
When you schedule a fence build, the crew begins by setting posts in concrete footings that account for frost depth and soil type, then frames each section using fasteners and bracing that prevent sag over time. The work takes longer than prebuilt panels because everything gets measured, cut, and fastened on your property instead of arriving in sections that may not fit the contours of your land.
Once the fence is up, you will notice that gates open and close smoothly without sticking, that rails stay level across slopes, and that corners meet cleanly without gaps. The posts do not lean after the first heavy wind, and the whole structure stays put when the ground freezes and thaws.
Materials vary depending on what you choose, but the install process stays consistent, with each post checked for plumb and each board spaced to allow for wood movement. If your yard has drainage issues or rocky soil, the crew adjusts the install method to keep the fence stable without forcing a one-size approach onto a property that does not support it.
You Probably Have a Few Questions About This
Homeowners usually want to know how long it takes, what happens if the ground is uneven, and whether the fence can be adjusted later, so here are answers to the most common questions that come up before a project starts.
What types of fences and gates do we build?
They build custom wood, vinyl, and metal fences along with matching gates, all designed around your property layout and the function you need. Each one is built on site instead of assembled from pre-made panels.
How long does it take to install a fence?
Most residential fences take between two and five days depending on length, terrain, and material choice. The crew works through the entire perimeter in one continuous schedule so you do not end up with half a fence sitting unfinished for weeks.
What happens if my yard has a slope or uneven ground?
The fence gets built to follow the grade or stepped in sections so it stays level and structurally sound. Posts are set deeper where needed, and rails are adjusted so nothing looks forced or out of place.
Why does custom fencing cost more than prefab panels?
You are paying for materials cut to fit your exact measurements, posts set to the right depth for your soil, and labor that accounts for corners, gates, and grade changes. The result holds up longer and looks like it belongs on your property instead of being dropped in from a catalog.
Can I add a gate later if I only install the fence now?
Yes, as long as the fence layout allows for it and the posts are positioned to support a gate frame. It is easier to plan for it during the initial build, but it can be added afterward if the structure supports the modification.
