Why Pasadena homeowners pick Red Stag

Three reasons our fences work is different in Pasadena.

01

Hardwood is the spec.

Cumaru, Ipe, and Garapa outlast cedar three-to-one in LA's climate. We build with the woods that survive salt air, summer UV, and irrigation overspray for two decades, not five years.

02

HOA submission is included.

We've handled architectural review for hundreds of LA neighborhoods. Your committee gets submission-grade drawings, material samples, and elevations as part of the proposal — at no extra cost.

03

Lifetime warranty in writing.

If a board cups, a post leans, or a hinge fails, we fix it on our dime. No diagnostic fee, no fine print, for as long as you own the home.

Pasadena build context

What's specific about fences in Pasadena.

Most LA fence contractors install pressure-treated SPF that fails in five years. We build with Cumaru, Ipe, and Garapa — Mexican hardwoods three times denser than cedar, naturally insect-resistant, and proven to last two decades in the Southern California climate. Every fence ships with submission-grade HOA documentation and a lifetime craftsmanship warranty in writing. In Pasadena specifically, the build context is different from a generic LA project. Architectural-history-rich. Bungalow Heaven, Madison Heights, and Oak Knoll for restored craftsman + traditional; San Rafael for hillside contemporary. That changes what a fences project looks like — both in spec and in process.

Architecture in Pasadena runs greene & greene craftsman bungalows, wallace neff mediterraneans, roland coate traditionals, and a strong contemporary new-build market in san rafael. — and the fences we deliver is calibrated to read with the architecture, not against it.

City of Pasadena (separate from LA City). Multiple Historic Preservation Overlay Zones — design review applies to most pre-1940 properties.
