The job is below grade
Posts in concrete, deep enough for saturated Whatcom soil. A fence fails at the dirt, not at the cap rail.
Ferndale · Lynden · Bellingham
Fences built for Whatcom weather.
Owner-built cedar, vinyl, chain link, and automated gates. You talk to Omega Johnson. Then we set posts in concrete.

Privacy

The Pacific Northwest fence. Board-on-board, horizontal slat, or picket — built to take rain.

Low maintenance
Vinyl privacy
HOA-clean lines. No stain, no rot, no spring of replacing boards.
From $40 / ft
Workhorse
Chain link
Black vinyl-coated or galvanized. Dogs, shops, ball fields, back lot lines.
From $18 / ft
Access
Driveway gates & automation
Swing, slide, and operators that still work after a week of rain.
Custom
Craft
The difference is below grade.
Rain, wind, and saturated soil. A fence in Whatcom County fails at the post — unless the post is set like it matters.
Hardware that does not rust shut
Hinges, latches, and fasteners specced for rain. Gates get the same attention as the long run.
Automation we will come back for
Operators, photo eyes, and keypads installed so a week of rain does not leave you locked out.
Know the range
No mystery pricing.
Other fence sites hide the number until a salesman arrives. Use the estimator, then we measure on site and write a scope. Gates and automation are quoted as their own line — they should be.

Honest 2026 Whatcom County ranges. Final number comes from an on-site measure — grade, gates, and footings move it.

How it goes
Four steps. No runaround.

Call, text, or send photos
A photo of the line and a rough length is enough to start. Omega picks up.
02
On-site measure
We walk the grade, mark posts, and talk material against the weather and the budget.
03
Written scope
Footage, height, gates, footings, and a number. No surprise extras after the posts go in.

We build it
Our crew. String line, concrete, hardware. You get a walkthrough when the last latch clicks.
“Omega Johnson A+ Fence Pro did a nice job for us in Ferndale.”
A family company, not a lead mill.
Omega Johnson runs A+ Fence Pro Corp from Ferndale. Licensed general contractor since 2021. Fences, driveway gates, automation, commercial yards, and the repair call after the wind.
Meet the crewQuestions we actually get.
Do I need a permit?+
Most Whatcom towns skip a building permit for rear-yard fences under 6 feet. Front yards, corner lots, and anything taller often have extra rules. We flag it on the estimate so you are not guessing.
How soon can you start?+
Repair and small gates are often same-week. New runs depend on material lead time and weather. Call — we will give you a real calendar, not a placeholder.
Do you work in winter?+
Yes, as long as the ground is not frozen solid. Wind damage and leaning posts are a fall and winter specialty.
Who shows up?+
You talk to Omega Johnson, the owner. We do not run a call center and we do not flip the job to a random sub after the deposit.
What about property lines?+
We install to the line you show us. If a neighbor dispute is in play, get a survey first. We will not guess a boundary.
Is there a veterans discount?+
Yes. 20% off qualifying work for veterans. Mention it when you call or check the box on the estimate form.
