Public Works Fence Installation in Half Moon Bay, CA
Public works and commercial fence installation on the San Mateo coast. Bid-ready, prevailing-wage, Skilled & Trained Workforce, eligible.
Half Moon Bay sits on the San Mateo County coast about 30 miles south of San Francisco. We work out of our Fortuna yard and cover the San Mateo coast for public works, commercial, and institutional fence projects, county and city agencies, school districts, utilities, parks-and-rec, and commercial owners along the Highway 1 corridor.
Coastal sites need salt-air-rated hardware and Coastal Commission coordination where the fence is visible from public access. We carry coastal spec from our regular Humboldt and Del Norte coastline work.

Half Moon Bay public works fence bid process
When a San Mateo County general contractor, City of Half Moon Bay, or special district includes site fencing in a bid package, we want the documents as early in the bid window as possible. Send the plan sheets and bid package to our bid request form or call the Fortuna office at (707) 822-9511, and we return a clean linear-foot takeoff, a line-itemized bid sheet, CSLB license verification (Lic. 808339), our certificate of insurance, and Skilled & Trained Workforce documentation.
Half Moon Bay is our longest dispatch, about 310 miles from Fortuna. Most San Mateo coast public works fence bids include a multi-day on-site mobilization with crew lodging factored in. We line-item that cost upfront in the bid sheet so the GC sees the full number on the first pass.
Caltrans, utility, and right-of-way fence work on the San Mateo coast
San Mateo County sits in Caltrans District 4, with Highway 1 along the coast and Highway 92 as the primary coastal connector to the Bay. We install Caltrans-spec right-of-way fencing on D4 Highway 1 projects, PG&E utility-yard and substation perimeters, Coastside County Water District and Sewer Authority Mid-Coastside enclosures, and San Mateo County Parks-and-Rec facility fencing across the coast.
San Mateo County, the City of Half Moon Bay, the San Mateo County Parks-and-Rec department, Coastside water and sanitation districts, PG&E, and the California Coastal Commission account for most of the regional public-works fence buyer pool. Many coastal sites require a coastal development permit coordinated through the Coastal Commission. We have permit experience from our regular Trinidad work in Coastal Commission jurisdiction.
Prevailing wage, certified payroll, and Skilled & Trained Workforce eligibility in San Mateo County
California public works projects in San Mateo County are subject to prevailing wage requirements under the Labor Code.

Humboldt Fence Company is CSLB-licensed (Lic. 808339), a member of ABC Central California Contractors, ISNetworld verified, and Gold Shovel Standard certified. Send a bid package and we include the compliance paperwork your San Mateo coast project needs on file.

Half Moon Bay public works fence FAQs
Are you set up for California public works fencing in Half Moon Bay?
Yes. Humboldt Fence Company is a CSLB-licensed contractor (Lic. 808339), Skilled & Trained Workforce, eligible, and a member of ABC Central California Contractors. We bid prevailing-wage public works fence work for San Mateo County agencies, the City of Half Moon Bay, school districts, special districts, utilities, parks-and-rec, and Caltrans-adjacent projects along Highway 1.
What kinds of public works fence work do you do on the San Mateo coast?
Security chain link with privacy slats or barbed/razor topping, ornamental iron perimeter for civic and institutional sites, automatic gates with operators and access control, utility yard and substation perimeters, Caltrans-spec right-of-way fencing along Highway 1, and park, beach access, and recreation-area perimeter fencing.
Do you travel from Fortuna to Half Moon Bay?
Yes. It is the longest dispatch in our service area. Half Moon Bay is about 310 miles south of our Fortuna yard. For public works and commercial scopes that justify the travel, our crew stays on-site through the install rather than running the highway each day.
How do you handle salt-air conditions on coastal sites?
Stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware exclusively, vinyl-coated chain link over bare galvanized for longer service life, and powder-coated ornamental iron with a hot-dip galvanized core. Same coastal spec we run on Trinidad and Crescent City installs.
What about California Coastal Commission jurisdiction?
Coastal Commission jurisdiction applies to many Half Moon Bay sites and fences visible from public coastal access points may require a coastal development permit. We identify which permits apply during the bid and handle the submittals. We have permit experience from our regular Trinidad work in Coastal Commission jurisdiction.
