"We hired JHernandez to install a privacy fence in our backyard, and they did an amazing job. The crew was professional, quick, and left everything clean. The fence looks great and gives us the privacy we needed!"
"I run a small farm outside of Salem and needed durable fencing for my animals. JHernandez understood exactly what I needed. The fence is strong, well-built, and they even finished ahead of schedule."
"What I appreciated most was their communication. From the first quote to the final nail, they kept me updated and explained everything. I'll definitely call them again for future projects."
We started J Hernandez Construction LLC in 2020 with a simple idea: treat every fencing & gates job like it's at our own house. That meant honest pricing, doing what we said we'd do, and standing behind our work — long after the invoice was paid.
More than 6 years later, the model hasn't changed. We still answer the phone. We still show up when we said we would. And our crews are in-house, not subcontracted, so the people who quote your job are the same ones who do it.

We install wood (cedar and pressure-treated pine are the most popular in the Pacific Northwest), vinyl, chain-link, and ornamental aluminum. Each material has different trade-offs in cost, appearance, and longevity.
During your free on-site estimate, we'll walk you through the pros and cons of each so you can choose the right fit for your budget, privacy needs, and property style.
In most cases, residential fences under 6 feet tall in the backyard and under 4 feet in the front yard do not require a building permit in Salem. However, corner lots, historic districts, and properties near easements or rights-of-way may have different requirements.
We know the local codes and will advise you on exactly what's needed before a single post goes in.
Always. Oregon law requires a call to 811 (the "Call Before You Dig" line) at least 2 business days before any ground-breaking, and we do it on every single job without exception. Your gas lines, water mains, and underground electrical are all marked before our crew touches the ground.
Most standard backyard fence jobs on a quarter-acre lot are completed in 1 to 2 days. Larger properties, custom gates, or tricky terrain (slopes, rocky soil, tree roots) can take 3 to 5 days.
We give you a realistic completion timeline in your written quote so you can plan around it. No vague "a few days" promises.
Cost depends on material, total linear footage, number of gates, and site conditions. As a general guide, wood privacy fences in the Salem area typically run $25–$45 per linear foot installed.
We provide fully itemized written quotes so you know exactly what you're paying for. No vague "starting from" pricing and no surprises at the end.
If the fence sits entirely on your side of the property line, you don't legally need your neighbor's consent. If you want to place it directly on the shared boundary line (making it a "boundary fence"), Oregon law treats it as a shared structure and neighbor agreement is strongly recommended.
We'll show you exactly where the fence will sit relative to your survey markers before any work begins.
The most reliable method is a survey, either an existing one from your closing documents or a new one ordered from a licensed surveyor. Many lots also have visible metal survey stakes at the corners. We won't install a post without confirming your boundaries first, and we're happy to recommend a local surveyor if you need one.
Yes. We're fully licensed and carry both general liability and workers' compensation insurance. We'll send you a current certificate of insurance before any work begins, no hesitation.
Yes, completely. We come to your property, take measurements, and hand you a written, itemized quote with zero obligation to book. No travel fee, no "assessment charge", nothing. If you decide to go with someone else, no hard feelings.
