Shasta Lake public works fence bid process
When a Shasta County general contractor, City of Shasta Lake, or federal-land-management agency 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.
The City of Shasta Lake and surrounding federal sites (Bureau of Reclamation, USFS) run their own procurement tracks. We’re familiar with each and can route documentation through the right intake.

We bid prevailing-wage public works fence work for Shasta County agencies, special districts, the Bureau of Reclamation and other federal land managers around the lake, utilities, and Caltrans-adjacent projects.

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 I-5, and park, marina, and recreation-area perimeter fencing.
Do you handle prevailing wage and certified payroll?
Yes. Public works installations follow California prevailing-wage requirements with certified payroll and the documentation general contractors expect from a bid-list-ready fence sub.
Do you specify fire-wise materials for sites in wildland-interface zones?
Yes. Most of the Shasta Lake area sits in high or very-high fire severity zones. For sites in those zones we default to non-combustible perimeters (chain link, ornamental iron) and metal-transition details where a fence ties into a structure.
