Fence Contractor in Los Angeles

A fence provides privacy, security, and beauty to your property. A well design and installed fence will improve your property in various ways. 

A Custom Fence Is an Excellent Solution

Regardless of your reasons for a fence, a custom fence can add curb appeal to your home and increase your property value. Fences are the barrier you need for both pets and children to keep them contained and safe on your property.

Choose From a Variety of Materials

You can choose from a wide array of fencing materials, such as Redwood, Cedar, IPE, Vinyl, Steel, and more. Not only materials, but you have your choice of patterns and styles like dog-ear, tongue & groove, horizontal, craftsman, picket, and more. 

Front yard fences, side yard fences, and back yard fences—each might require a different material or design depending on your need. In fact, any fence you can envision, Design Scapes Inc can deliver.

Let’s Discuss Materials, Finishes, Preferences, and Budget

You have a vision in your mind of what the perfect fence for your property looks like. Design Scapes Inc is here to turn that vision into reality. We work with an amazing amount of materials and finishes to help you get the exact look you want for your budget. We can help you design the right fence that fits your needs and your budget. 

Understanding Your Options

Wood fences are the most popular choice, and Design Scapes Inc offers a variety of paint, stain, and sealants to make your fence last for years. All materials we offer help you get the best value for your dollar. Add in pressure-treated wood that resists moisture, insects, decay, and mold, and you can expect your fence to typically last ten years or more. 

A consideration is: the more resilient the wood used, the more costly the fence. You might find its well worth the investment in premium wood requiring less maintenance and repairs. Let’s cover a few of your options:

  • Redwood fences. Redwood is known for its durability and stunning appearance. It’s a classic choice for fences and is naturally resistant to decay and rot. Redwood is widely used for California homes.
  • IPE fences. IPE fences provide an exotic look for modern homes. Known as “Brazilian walnut,” IPE wood is exceptionally strong, even more so than cedar.
  • Douglas Fir fences. Affordable and highly available, Douglas fir is your answer to securing your property with a fence without spending a lot of money. Know that this wood is soft, meaning it’s less resistant to dings, dents, and scratches.
  • Cedar fences. Cedar is weather-resistant compared to other types of wood and is why many homeowners choose it for their fences. If you’re looking for a reliable wood that you can enjoy for years without repair or replacement, choose cedar.

Sina and his team worked with us to design and build both our front and backyard. The results exceeded our expectations and the team worked patiently during COVID and through a challenging permitting process with LA City. The team was professional and always prompt. The pricing was fair and transparent, and communication was great. The project was large overall so we worked together with Design Scapes for almost one year. I have recommended the team to many people already and think they do great work.

We hired Design Scapes to turn our backyard into a hostable space that would feel welcoming to guests, but more importantly, utilize what we felt was completely wasted space. It's hard to put words to just how incredible of an experience we had with Sina and his team. From the get-go, they were efficient, communicative, and dedicated to making us feel content. Sina, Aaron and everyone they work with truly understand design - the technical, architectural, and aesthetic elements that are needed in order to create the best results. We never had any doubt that we went with the right company. The results were ten times better than we ever could have imagined. Our backyard is a total haven, we feel like we're on vacation at our own home! We would give ten stars if we could!

I worked with Sima at Design Scapes on a recent backyard renovation. He was extremely patient as we began from concept to finished project! His crew was very professional and it turned out exactly how I envisioned. The reno included building a pergula with a cover, hardscaping with pavers and adding lighting and ficus trees. We were so happy with the finished product!

Design Scapes constructed a composite wood deck and two planters in my back yard and I couldn't be happier with the result. Very professional, terrific work, really nice people (especially Heli, who worked with me throughout), and they got it done when they said they would, completely satisfied with the whole experience!

Sina and his team are your go-to for innovative and beautiful outdoor construction. They installed a gigantic, closeable pergola over our wrap around deck. They handled the entire process from plans to permits to installation and did a tremendous job. We feel like we've added a room to our home. They did an amazing job. Five stars!

Design Scapes is very highly recommended! Very professional, creative and reliable. They were very timely and reasonable with their estimated budget and time line to complete the project. Also, they were very responsive with additional requests after the initial project. I will refer them to my friends.

I can not say enough how great working with Design Sacpes was. My husband and I met with several landscaping companies and Design Scapes seemed to be the most honest and professional one. Sina is an awesome person, he guided us in choosing the best design for our backyard while he was considering what we want in all the steps. We ended up planting some great fruit trees in addition to a cute fountain and some design with beautiful rocks. The crew was very clean and professional. We did not feel we have workers in our background the whole time. The final invoice reflected exactly what we had spoken of, although we made some changes and ended up choosing better material and plants in some occasions. I highly recommend Design Sacpes if you are looking for the best landscaping company.

Sina and his crew are great. We started off with replacing a block wall we shared with our neighbor with a wood fence. Once we saw the excellent quality of the work we had him transform our backyard which was basically a dirt lot into a backyard oasis with pavers, a grassy area, a new tree and a section of plants. His crew is unbelievable. Vert talented and hard working. On time every day. Courteous and friendly. Always kept the work area clean. Sina when not on site was always available by phone or text. His estimates were clear, and his on line billing system was easy to use.

We did 2 projects with Sina at the same time. One was done on time and was exactly to our specification (even though we changed our minds once the project started as is sometimes the case when you start to see it come together). Sina was always available with ideas, feedback and keeping us up to date. The other project was delayed through no fault of Sina's. The material he ordered came in damaged. He took care of it completely and rescheduled his crew to come back once the material was received. I didn't have to fight with anyone over damaged materials and he didn't even ask me to accept sub-quality. He just rejected it immediately and took care of the problem. Both projects were beautiful when finished. I am very happy with the quality of work. I have worked with many contractors. I can easily say that Sina is one of the best. He is amazing because he does exactly what he says he will do... follow up calls, shows up on time, sends detailed work plans, etc. Seems like a little thing but if you've worked with contractors, you know that's rare! I have already referred him to friends and will definitely use him again in the future.

When my wife and I moved into our new home at the beginning of 2020, we loved the potential of our new backyard. It has a pool with lots of room for gatherings and two healthy fruit trees that provide good shade. Unfortunately the existing planters were overrun with tall unorganized grasses and the "grass" area was nothing but dirt. As soon as I called Sina at Design Scapes, he scheduled a quick visit to view the property and get an understanding of my design intent. He listened closely to what I wanted, offered his expertise and suggestions when appropriate, and created a plan that met all expectations. When I explained that the plan was slightly above my cost limit, he offered adjustments that kept the design incredible while aligning with my target budget. All work was performed professionally and on schedule and he has consistently followed up to ensure satisfaction. I would absolutely work with Sina on all future exterior projects!

I can't express how happy we are with Sina's work. He is extremely professional and reliable. He was always at the job site when needed. And he clearly went the extra length to get our work done. One of the things we needed done was adding mesh to a quarter acre property around the Fenceline. Sina's team made sure to dig down over a foot under the dirt to make sure our animals couldn't get underneath it. He made sure The mesh was tied tightly to the fence around the entire property line. His work was very clean and he did not disrupt any of the plant life. He is extremely knowledgeable about landscaping and plant life. I would definitely recommend using him again and sure we will in the future! Thank you for everything Sina
