Jerith Construction in Mountain View, CA | Workshop Contractors
Jerith aluminum fence and railing service in Mountain View runs $4,000 – $10,000 for a full installation, and most repair work lands well under that. We’re an independent General Contractor – Mountain View serving Eichler-era and ranch-tract neighborhoods, and the thing that sets our Jerith work apart here is that we actually understand how Mountain View’s post-and-beam houses and shallow-footing lots stress fence runs differently than anywhere else on the Peninsula. Need a leaning Jerith run re-set, a chalking finish re-coated, or a sagging Grandview gate rebuilt with genuine hardware? Call (844) 384-3361 for a free estimate.
Why Mountain View Residents Choose Us for Jerith Service
We’ve installed and repaired Jerith ornamental aluminum fencing and railing across Mountain View’s mix of Eichler-era and ranch-tract lots, from Waverly Park to Jerith in Sunnyvale and Cuesta Park, and we source Jerith profiles, brackets, and finishes directly so the run matches what’s already standing. We’re an independent contractor – not affiliated with, authorized by, or endorsed by Jerith – and that independence is why we’ll tell you when a section can be re-set and re-finished rather than replaced.
Noel Figueroa, our owner, learned framing and finish work the hard way: on job sites before he was old enough to rent a truck, then across decades of Inland Empire builds where square framing and tight trim joints were the bare minimum. He brings that same eye to Mountain View fence lines. If a post is out of plumb, we don’t hide it. We fix it. Because in Mountain View, where half the yard lines run parallel to a post-and-beam Eichler or a 1950s ranch, a fence that’s true reads instantly. One that isn’t bugs you every time you pull into the driveway.

Common Jerith Construction Problems We Solve in Mountain View
- Powder-coat chalking and fading on south- and west-facing runs. Mountain View’s long dry summers and high UV bake the finish on exposed front-yard fencing faster than shaded runs. We spot-treat or full-re-coat the affected sections, and we’ll tell you honestly which route makes sense for the age of the run.
- Post-footing failure in shallow, slab-adjacent soil. Original concrete footings on 1950s – 70s Mountain View ranch lots were often set shallow and in expansive clay fill. After a wet winter, posts lean and rack. We re-dig, re-pour to depth, and reset plumb – no full replacement needed when the aluminum itself is sound.
- Gate sag and hinge fatigue on Grandview-style gates. Repeatedly cycled double gates at driveway aprons drop and drag because the hinge brackets loosen from the post rather than from the frame. We rebuild the hinge system with genuine Jerith hardware and re-hang the gate so it clears the apron without dragging.
- Galvanic corrosion and white oxidation at cut ends, weld joints, and where aluminum pickets meet steel brackets or masonry. Sprinkler overspray keeps the base of the run wet in Mountain View’s clay-heavy yards, accelerating the reaction. We treat the corrosion, replace damaged brackets, and adjust the spray pattern where we can.
- Mismatched repair sections from previous handyman work. A discontinued Jerith profile gets replaced with whatever was at the supply house, and the run never looks right again. We match like-for-like aluminum profiles for discontinued runs so the repair disappears into the existing line.
Jerith Service in Mountain View: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Mountain View’s Eichler post-and-beam homes have no attic and exposed-beam ceilings. When Home Remodeling – Mountain View opens a wall or adds a second story, the exterior railing and fence layout often has to be re-coordinated with surface-run conduit and soffited mechanicals. That sequencing constraint doesn’t exist in neighboring cities with conventional attic construction, and it changes how we approach Jerith work here. A railing that runs along a new second-story deck can’t simply be anchored wherever the framing lands – the conduit path, the beam line, and the sightline all have to agree first. We coordinate that before we set the first post, because retrofitting a railing after the electrical is surface-run turns a half-day job into a three-day headache.
We saw this play out on a Waverly Park Eichler remodel where we were tying a new rear patio to the existing yard line. The original Jerith-style aluminum run was leaning at three posts because the footings had been set shallow in the clay fill beside the slab. We pulled the affected panels, re-dug and re-poured the footings to depth, reset the posts plumb, replaced a sagging gate with new Jerith hinge hardware, and touched up the chalking powder coat on the sun-facing run. The homeowner kept the existing fence line instead of replacing the whole yard. That’s the repair-first approach we bring to every Mountain View job.

What drives the final number: linear footage of the run, soil conditions at the post locations, whether old concrete footings need to be removed, gate count and hardware condition, and how much powder-coat remediation the exposed sections need. A straightforward ranch lot with good soil and a single gate lands at the lower end. A long Eichler yard line with clay fill, multiple gates, and sun-baked finish work runs higher. Call (844) 384-3361 for a written line-item estimate – we walk the property, check the footings, and give you a number that doesn’t move once we start digging.

FAQs – Jerith Construction in Mountain View
Usually yes, if the aluminum sections are structurally sound. The lean typically comes from shallow footings set in the clay fill beside the slab, not from the fence failing. We pull the affected panels, re-dig and re-pour the footings to depth, reset the posts plumb, and re-hang the panels. You keep the fence, and the Jerith repair in Loyola costs a fraction of a full replacement. Call (844) 384-3361 and we’ll look at your run.
Mountain View requires permits for most new fence installations, and depending on your lot’s zoning and any Eichler or historic district overlays, design review may apply. We handle the permit paperwork and coordinate with the city as part of the job. No guesswork, no surprises at final inspection.
Mountain View’s long dry summers put intense UV on west-facing runs, and the finish breaks down from the sun side inward. The east side of the same fence will often look years newer. We can re-coat the affected sections with a matching finish, and we’ll tell you if the underlying aluminum needs prep work first. A re-coat now is cheaper than letting the oxidation spread to the metal.
Most of the time, yes. Gate sag usually comes from hinge brackets loosening from the post, not from the gate frame bending. We rebuild the hinge system with genuine Jerith hardware and re-hang the gate so it clears the apron and latches square. Replacement is only on the table when the frame itself is cracked or severely corroded. Call (844) 384-3361 for an exact assessment – estimates are free.
Yes, and this is where Mountain View’s Eichler stock makes the coordination more involved than a standard remodel. When we’re doing a full kitchen remodel or bath remodel on a post-and-beam house, exterior railing often has to be re-coordinated with surface-run conduit and soffited mechanicals. We handle both under one contract, so the railing lands where the framing, electrical, and sightlines agree. No finger-pointing between a fence contractor and a remodel crew – it’s all us. Our Mountain View service area covers the full city.
