Pomona is one of the larger cities in the San Gabriel Valley, with over 150,000 residents and a housing stock that spans from Victorian and Craftsman homes built in the late 1800s near Lincoln Park to mid-century tract houses in Westmont to newer construction near the Cal Poly Pomona campus. That range means the fencing needs on one block can be completely different from the next. Older homes near Lincoln Park may face design review requirements for exterior changes, while mid-century homes across the rest of the city often need full fence replacements because the original fencing has simply run out its useful life. A contractor who works Pomona regularly understands where those lines are.

The climate here puts real stress on fencing materials. Pomona summers regularly exceed 95 degrees Fahrenheit, with heat waves pushing past 105 degrees, and the UV exposure at this latitude breaks down untreated wood and cheaper vinyl formulations faster than homeowners expect. Fall and winter bring Santa Ana wind events that can gust above 50 mph and are one of the most frequent causes of sudden fence failure across the city. The clay soils common throughout the eastern San Gabriel Valley also expand when wet and shrink when dry, which gradually pushes fence posts out of position over several seasons if they are not properly set and anchored in concrete.

Pomona is one of the largest cities in the San Gabriel Valley, covering roughly 23 square miles at the eastern edge of Los Angeles County. The city has a long history - it was incorporated in 1888 - and that history shows in the housing stock. The Lincoln Park neighborhood near the city center is one of the most intact collections of late 19th and early 20th century residential architecture in the Inland Valley, with Victorian, Craftsman, and Colonial Revival homes that are now over 100 years old. Beyond Lincoln Park, the city is primarily made up of mid-century single-family homes built during the post-war boom of the 1940s through 1960s, alongside a mix of duplexes and small apartment buildings near downtown and along major corridors. The Fairplex - home of the Los Angeles County Fair - is one of Pomona's best-known landmarks, drawing visitors from across Southern California every September.

Pomona sits where the San Gabriel Valley meets the Inland Empire, bordered by Ontario, Chino, Diamond Bar, and Claremont. The 10, 60, and 71 freeways all run through or near the city, making it a well-connected hub for the region. Cal Poly Pomona, one of the largest Cal State campuses in the system, is located on the city's eastern edge near the Pomona-Walnut border. The university brings a steady population to the area, but the surrounding residential neighborhoods are largely established owner-occupied communities. Homeowners in nearby Ontario and Diamond Bar are also within our service area and we are on the ground regularly in both cities.
