Jerith Construction Service Nationwide

Why Los Angeles Homeowners Choose Jerith Construction

We provide independent Jerith aluminum fence and railing installation, repair, and replacement across Los Angeles, from Pacific Palisades to the San Fernando Valley. Our crews have worked on Jerith’s Residential Aluminum, Industrial Aluminum, and Poolside Series for over a decade, so we know which post anchors hold in expansive clay and how to match a faded bronze powder-coat finish on a repair. We are not authorized by or affiliated with Jerith - we’re an independent service provider that fixes their products the right way. Call (470) 298-9650 for a written quote before any work begins.

Jerith builds some of the most specified aluminum fencing in the country, and it shows up all over LA - around pools in Encino, along property lines in Silver Lake, around commercial lots in the Valley. What we see in the field is that most Jerith failures are not fence failures at all. They’re installation failures and soil failures. A post doesn’t lean because the aluminum gave up. It leans because the concrete footing cracked, or the footing was never deep enough, or water found its way in and the whole assembly shifted after a wet winter. That distinction matters, because the fix is different depending on which one happened. We diagnose the cause and write up exactly what we found, in plain terms, before we touch a post.

Why Trust Rowan Construction Group for Your Jerith Construction?

Grant Rowan founded Rowan Construction Group in 2007, and the company has spent the years since building a record of 4,000-plus projects with one discipline running through all of them: the price is written before anyone picks up a tool. That’s Clause 1 of our Haven Standard, and it applies to Jerith work the same way it applies to a kitchen remodel. You get a flat written price, a written scope, and a written warranty. No change proceeds without a signed change order. That’s the administrative discipline that has kept our project costs within a few percent of the agreed number for nearly two decades.

On the Jerith side specifically, our crews work with these products on a weekly basis, not occasionally. We know the RA Series residential picket profile, the heavier IA Series industrial rail, the AP Series picket railing system, and the PS Series poolside code-compliant fence. We keep a running inventory of Jerith-compatible brackets, hinges, and anchors, and we’ve installed and repaired Jerith fencing in every condition Los Angeles throws at it - marine layer corrosion in Santa Monica, wind loading in the Verdugo Hills, and clay heave across the Valley floor. We also provide Anaheim Jerith service for properties in Orange County. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and a live person answers our phones 24/7. Every visit includes a documented photo record of what we found and what we did.

Grant trained in construction technology at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College, where the coursework covered concrete, framing, and estimating - the disciplines that matter when a fence post is leaning and we need to tell you why. Measure twice, say it once, show your work. That’s how we run Jerith service calls.

Common Jerith Construction Problems We Fix in Los Angeles

• Powder-coat chalking and fading. Jerith’s dark bronze and black finishes take a beating under LA’s UV load. After 8-12 years, especially on unshaded south-facing runs, the powder coat chalks and dulls. We see it most on PS Series pool fences in the Valley and on RA Series residential runs in hillside neighborhoods. The aluminum itself is usually sound; the coating is the issue. We can match and refinish using Jerith’s bronze and black color spec, or advise on full replacement if the coating failure exceeds 30% of the rail surface.
• Leaning or wobbly posts. This is the single most common Jerith problem we deal with in Los Angeles, and it’s almost never the post’s fault. Expansive clay soils on the Valley floor shrink during the long dry season and heave hard after winter rains. Concrete footings crack, and the post loses its anchor. Hillside properties add seismic shifting to the equation. We reset posts in new 18-inch footings with steel rebar and galvanized anchor brackets - a structural fix, not a shim job.
• Gate sagging and hinge wear on self-closing pool gates. LA code requires pool fence gates to be self-closing and self-latching, which means the hinge takes a beating. On Jerith PS Series pool gates, we regularly replace stripped hinge screws, worn hinge bushings, and sagging corner brackets. The question is always whether the post has moved or the hinge has worn - that determines whether it’s a $90 hinge swap or a post reset.
• Corrosion at welds and screw holes near the coast. Within five miles of the water - Santa Monica, Venice, Playa del Rey, the Palisades - salt air attacks aluminum at its most vulnerable points: weld joints, screw penetrations, and where dissimilar metals touch. We see it on older Jerith RA and IA Series installations where the original anchors were plain steel instead of hot-dipped galvanized. The fix is localized: clean the corroded area, replace hardware with marine-grade stainless or galvanized, and treat the surface.
• Rack damage from wind or impact. Hillside properties in the Santa Monica Mountains and Verdugo Hills see sustained wind loading that loose footings can’t resist. We’ve rebuilt Jerith sections where posts remained intact but the rail pulled out of the post channels because the original install used the wrong post-to-rail hardware. This is a material-spec issue, and we correct it with Jerith’s proper screw boss system.

Jerith Parts & Our Repair-vs-Replace Approach

For structural components - posts, pickets, gates, and rail sections - we prefer genuine Jerith parts. The reason is dimensional: Jerith’s extrusions are proprietary profiles, and an aftermarket picket from another supplier won’t seat in the rail channel the same way. Using genuine Jerith structural parts also keeps the powder-coat match tight, which matters when you’re repairing a 60-foot run and you don’t want the new section to look like a patch. Where OEM parts are backordered or discontinued, we use high-quality aftermarket options for hinges, latches, and concrete anchors - hardware that doesn’t affect the fence’s profile or finish.

Our honest repair-versus-replace guideline is simple. If posts have shifted more than 1 inch from vertical, we recommend resetting or replacing the full affected section rather than trying to patch around a failing footing. If the coating failure is cosmetic and under 30% of the surface, refinishing is worth doing. If it’s past that, replacement makes more financial sense. We’ll put those numbers in writing and let you decide. For an exact quote on your Jerith fence or railing, call (470) 298-9650 - estimates are free and written, not verbal.

Our Jerith Service Process - Step by Step

1. 1
   Diagnosis. We start by looking at the footing, not the panel. We check for concrete cracking, soil heave, water intrusion, and post movement in three dimensions. We document everything with photos, and we tell you in plain terms what we found - whether it’s a hinge problem, a footing problem, or a coating problem.
2. 2
   Written quote. Before we do any work, you get a flat written price with a written scope. That’s Clause 1 of the Haven Standard. If we believe a full section replacement is the honest choice over a patch, we’ll show you the numbers and explain why.
3. 3
   Removal, footing work, and reset. When we reset Jerith posts, we pull the old post, excavate the failed footing, pour a new 18-inch concrete footing with steel rebar, and set the post with galvanized anchor brackets. On slope work, we extend footings below the deep-root zone and add drainage where water has been pooling at the post base.
4. 4
   Panel, gate, and hardware installation. We reinstall using Jerith’s channel-and-screw system, replace worn hinges and latches, and set self-closing tension to meet LA pool code. If we’re installing new Jerith fencing, we follow Jerith’s line-and-grade instructions for post spacing and rail alignment.
5. 5
   Test and document. We cycle each gate ten times, confirm self-closing function and latch engagement, check every post for plumb, and walk the line with you. You get a documented photo record of the finished work and a written warranty. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies: if it’s not done right, we make it right.
