"They built our composite deck in just under two weeks, which was faster than the timeline they gave us. The boards are even, the railings feel solid, and everything passed city inspection without any issues. Exactly what we were hoping for."
Marcus T., Ventura
Composite deck installation
"Our backyard is on a slope, and I had been told by other contractors it would be too complicated or too expensive. These guys came out, assessed the grade, and gave us a straightforward proposal. The multi-level deck turned out better than anything I had imagined."
Diana R., Ojai
Multi-level decks
"We needed a new wood privacy fence along our back property line before we listed our house. They pulled the permit, finished in three days, and the fence looks great in the listing photos. Our agent said it was one of the first things buyers commented on."

Yes - if the deck attaches to your house or sits more than 30 inches off the ground, a building permit is required under California state law. Skipping it can create serious problems when you sell. The North American Deck and Railing Association outlines permit requirements at nadra.org
Santa Paula's summers regularly push into the 90s with low humidity, which dries out wood faster than most homeowners expect. Composite boards stay stable season after season with no refinishing. For most Ventura County properties, composite materials are the better long-term investment.
The Santa Ana winds that sweep through Ventura County each fall put real stress on deck railings and pergola structures. A properly built system uses hardware rated for those wind loads at every connection point. If your railings wobble or your pergola shifts in high winds, that is a structural issue, not just a cosmetic one.
Parts of Ventura County carry elevated wildfire risk ratings, and California has specific building requirements for decks in high fire hazard zones. Composite materials like Trex carry a Class A fire rating - the highest available. Ask your contractor to check your property's fire hazard designation before choosing materials.
Many Santa Paula homes - particularly in older neighborhoods and hillside areas - sit on sloped or uneven ground. A sloped lot means taller posts, deeper footings, and more labor. It also changes the design options. Get a site assessment early so the slope is factored into your proposal before you fall in love with a design.
Yes - outdoor living space is a genuine selling point in Southern California, where buyers expect year-round usability. A well-built, permitted deck adds livable square footage and photographs well. The National Association of Realtors tracks outdoor improvement return on investment at nar.realtor

We hold a current California contractor license issued by the California Contractors State License Board, and maintain full general liability insurance and workers compensation on every project.

If your deck has soft spots, boards that flex underfoot, or railings that wobble, those are structural issues - not cosmetic ones. Waiting makes them more expensive. The California Department of Consumer Affairs recommends getting a structural assessment before any seasonal use. dca.ca.gov
Think about how much time you want to spend on maintenance each year. A wood deck in Santa Paula may need cleaning and sealing every one to two years given the climate. Composite needs almost no maintenance beyond an occasional rinse. If maintenance feels like a burden, composite is the right answer for this area.
Know roughly what size you want, how you plan to use the space, and your general budget range. If you have an HOA, pull your CC&Rs - your contractor will need to know if there are design restrictions. Any recent survey documents or property maps are helpful but not required.
If you have questions before scheduling an estimate, call us directly at (805) 873-8839 or send a message through our contact page.
Santa Paula is a small city of about 30,000 people in the Santa Clara River valley, sitting between Ventura to the west and Fillmore to the east. The city calls itself the Citrus Capital of the World, and its agricultural roots are still visible in the groves and rural properties on the edges of town. More than half of the homes in Santa Paula were built before 1980, according to U.S. Census data, which means a large share of properties were built without attached decks or modern outdoor living spaces.
The city has a mix of craftsman bungalows and Victorian-era homes near the historic downtown, mid-century ranch houses in the surrounding neighborhoods, and newer subdivisions on the east side. Many older homes - particularly those near downtown and along the hillside streets - have back doors that open directly to grade with no outdoor transition space. Santa Paula sits near areas designated as high fire hazard severity zones, and the Thomas Fire of 2017 burned through the hills directly above the city, reminding residents that material choices for outdoor structures matter. Santa Paula Airport - a well-known general aviation hub just outside the city - marks the western edge of town, with established neighborhoods spreading out from the historic core toward both the valley floor and the surrounding hills.
Santa Paula's warm, dry climate makes outdoor living genuinely comfortable for most of the year, but the combination of intense summer heat, Santa Ana winds, and older housing stock means deck projects here require a contractor who knows the local conditions. Santa Paula Fence & Deck has been building in this community since 2019 and understands what it takes to build a deck that lasts in this valley.
