Colfax Fence Company | KAL Fencing
KAL Fencing is a locally owned and operated fence company serving Colfax, Placer County, and nearby foothill communities. With over 20 years of experience in the fencing industry, KAL Fencing handles residential and commercial fencing projects with an emphasis on solid construction, precise installation, responsive communication, and dependable customer service.
A new fence is a long-term investment, and the installation has a significant impact on how well it performs. Fence lines need to be properly laid out, posts need to be secure, materials need to suit the application, and the finished installation needs to account for the property’s terrain and existing conditions. KAL Fencing takes these factors into consideration when planning and completing each project.
From its Auburn location, KAL Fencing serves property owners throughout Colfax and the surrounding Placer County foothills, as well as communities including Auburn, Rocklin, Loomis, Meadow Vista, Newcastle, Granite Bay, and nearby areas.
Meet Kirk Lovejoy
KAL Fencing is owned and led by Kirk Lovejoy, who brings more than two decades of practical fencing experience to the company. Over the years, that experience has included residential yards, commercial properties, rural parcels, property boundaries, and projects requiring different materials and installation approaches.
Fencing projects can vary considerably from one property to another. A straightforward backyard installation may require a very different approach than a rural property with trees, brush, uneven ground, existing fencing, utility considerations, or difficult access. KAL Fencing evaluates those conditions before work begins and works with property owners to establish the appropriate layout, materials, access points, and project scope.
KAL Fencing is a California licensed contractor, License #614212, and provides licensed, insured, and bonded fencing services. Free estimates are available for customers considering a new installation, replacement, repair, or other fencing project.
Residential & Commercial Fence Installation
Fencing can serve many different purposes. It may be installed to create privacy, establish a property boundary, contain animals, improve security, define an outdoor area, or enhance the appearance of a home or commercial property.
KAL Fencing provides several fencing and related services, including:
- Ranch fencing
- Wire fencing
- Wood fencing
- Iron fencing
- Chain link fencing
- Dog runs
- Post-hole digging
Every installation has its own requirements. Fence height, post placement, spacing, alignment, terrain, gates, access, existing structures, and the intended use of the enclosure can all influence how the work should be approached.
For property owners searching for fence installation in Colfax, CA, KAL Fencing offers more than two decades of industry experience and a practical understanding of the fencing requirements found throughout the local foothills.
Wood Fencing & Privacy Fences
Wood fencing can provide privacy and property separation while giving a home or outdoor space a traditional appearance. KAL Fencing installs wood fencing for residential applications, including privacy fences, backyard enclosures, side-yard fencing, and replacement projects.
The design of a wood fence should reflect the property and how the space will be used. Fence height, desired privacy, gate placement, property layout, and the homeowner’s preferred appearance can all influence the finished installation.
KAL Fencing also has experience replacing older wood fences when age, weather, damage, or deteriorating components have made continued repairs impractical.
One customer who had previously hired KAL returned in January 2026 when it was time to replace a yard fence. The customer said the completed fence improved both the appearance and functionality of the backyard and praised the installation team’s professionalism, efficiency, knowledge, courtesy, and cleanup.
Another KAL customer hired the company for a shared fence project and selected metal posts with redwood boards. The customer also requested a modular design that would make it easier to replace individual components if they were damaged later.
For customers looking for wood fence installation in Colfax, CA, KAL Fencing provides experienced installation based on the property’s layout and the customer’s goals.
Ranch, Wire & Chain Link Fencing
Properties throughout the Colfax area can include larger parcels where a traditional privacy fence is not necessarily the best solution. Ranch, wire, and chain link fencing can provide useful boundaries and containment while preserving visibility.
KAL Fencing installs ranch, wire, and chain link fencing for residential, rural, and other property applications. The company’s project experience includes horse fencing, longer fence runs, and properties where vegetation, changing ground conditions, existing structures, or access requirements add complexity to the installation.
One customer described a KAL project involving approximately 600 feet of horse fencing. Another customer had approximately 100 feet of old wooden fencing removed and replaced and specifically commented on the straightness of the finished fence and the use of metal posts.
For larger properties, the fencing needs to work with the way the land is actually used. KAL considers factors such as animals, boundaries, terrain, vegetation, existing fencing, and access when planning the installation.
Iron Fencing, Dog Runs & Post-Hole Digging
KAL Fencing also provides iron fencing, dog runs, and post-hole digging for customers with more specific fencing and property needs.
A dog run can create a designated area for pets while allowing the rest of the property to remain open for other uses. Post-hole digging is available for customers who need holes prepared for fencing or other posts.
The requirements for this type of work can vary depending on the soil, property layout, number and location of posts, access to the work area, and the fencing or structure being installed.
Fence Repair & Replacement
When a fence is damaged or showing signs of age, replacement is not always the only option. A localized problem may be repairable, while widespread deterioration or structural damage may make replacing the fence the more practical choice.
KAL Fencing handles both repair and replacement work. Projects can include removing old fencing, rebuilding damaged sections, replacing deteriorated areas, or installing an entirely new fence.
KAL has also worked on fencing affected by severe weather. One customer contacted the company after strong winds caused a section of fence to blow over. During the project, KAL addressed the fence line and utility considerations before completing the replacement. The customer ultimately gained additional backyard space and was pleased with the result.
For fence repair in Colfax, CA, an evaluation of the existing fence can help determine whether repairing specific areas or replacing the enclosure makes the most sense.
Real KAL Fencing Project Experience
The range of KAL Fencing’s completed work provides practical evidence of its experience with different property conditions.
One customer hired KAL to fence a 3.1-acre property with heavy brush and trees. According to the customer’s review, the project was completed on schedule and within budget despite the challenging conditions.
Another project involved approximately 600 feet of horse fencing, requiring a substantial installation across a larger property.
A separate project involved approximately 100 feet of old wood fencing. KAL removed the existing fence and installed the replacement in about six hours. The customer specifically praised how straight the finished fence was and also noted that KAL removed an old wire fence and drilled holes for additional decorative fencing.
These projects demonstrate why site conditions matter. Fence installations can involve vegetation, uneven terrain, utility lines, existing structures, property boundaries, material choices, and access limitations that need to be addressed during the planning and construction process.
What KAL Fencing Customers Say
