Verified 5-star reviews from Humboldt customers.
“Reasonable price. The guys at Humboldt Fence were great on my project. I had a 10-acre solar plant we built in Fortuna. Tanner and his crew were great, professional, on time and did great work. Russ the owner was very helpful and worked with our ever-changing schedule and the weather to install a beautiful secure fence and gates. Thanks guys, definitely use you next time we are up here.”
, Rich Brandt
Fortuna commercial project
“I had a great experience with this company. They came out to do the estimate when it was scheduled. I received the estimate within several days and booked the job. The ladies at the office were easy to contact, were polite, and helpful. There was a slight delay on scheduling and they communicated this clearly with me. The job was done in several days over a week's span and cost exactly what the estimate was. They installed a nice 8-foot-tall chain link fence with privacy slats and a 6-foot-high by 7-foot-wide gate of the same material. They hauled away all the material of the old wood fence that had failed. Thanks!”

“4 fence companies called with either no callbacks or ridiculous quotes. The 5th fence company was Humboldt Fence. They answered the phone, quickly came out and bid a more than competitive price. Time frame to installation was quick (compared to the 10-week waiting time for the other 4). Posts set on a Tuesday and fencing/gates installed on Friday. Great crew: friendly, neat and did a fine job. I should have called them first. Humboldt Fence has my vote.”
, Andrew G.
Eureka, CA
“Our fence blew down last January during the high-wind storms. We had watched the Humboldt Fence commercial with Russ riding a horse and checking fences. I called Humboldt Fence and got our project on their waiting list. The building crew was amazing. They had that fence rebuilt and replaced in less than four days. I talked with John during his time on the job. He was clearly somebody that loved his work and took pride in the finished product. These workers were exemplary in their craft and alignment with Humboldt Fence Company's mission statement. We were impressed, and that's not easy to do.”
