Fence Installation & Repair services in Patterson
Patterson lies on the west side of the valley, close to Interstate 5 and the foot of the Diablo Range. Two things are different here. First, the soil. The west side has heavier clay than the sandy ground east of the San Joaquin River. It swells when it is wet and cracks open in summer, and that movement loosens shallow posts. Second, the wind, which comes down off the hills harder than in Modesto. We set posts deeper for both reasons. The town was laid out around a circular plaza with streets running out like spokes, so some downtown lots are wedge-shaped and need careful measuring. Most of the newer housing is in large subdivisions built for commuters, and the business parks near the freeway need chain link, steel fence and rolling gates.

Permits and local rules
Patterson Municipal Code Chapter 18.70 says no fence or wall may be built without a fence permit unless it qualifies for an exemption. Repairing an existing fence does not need one. Height limits are 3 feet 6 inches in the front setback, with at least half the fence open to view, and 6 feet on rear and interior side lines. Chain link needs city approval in residential districts.
