American Precast Fences has expanded its operations in Southern California to accommodate increased demand for precast concrete fencing solutions. The company recently added installation crews, acquired additional equipment, and extended its service capacity as more homeowners seek permanent fencing alternatives amid rising material and labor costs throughout the region.
The expansion comes in response to a sustained increase in project inquiries over the past 12 months. Company leadership attributes the growth to shifting homeowner priorities, with more property owners calculating long-term ownership costs rather than selecting fencing based solely on upfront price. The change reflects broader trends in the home improvement sector, where consumers increasingly weigh durability and lifetime value against initial expenditure.
"We reached a point where our existing capacity could not keep pace with incoming requests," said Navid Yasharel, owner of American Precast Fences. "Homeowners are thinking differently about exterior improvements. They want to make one decision and move on, rather than revisiting the same project every decade."
Precast concrete fencing differs from traditional wood and vinyl options in its expected service life. While wood fencing typically requires replacement within 10 to 15 years due to rot, warping, and weather exposure, precast concrete installations are engineered to remain structurally sound for 30 years or more. The material resists fire, insects, and environmental degradation without ongoing maintenance such as staining or sealing. These characteristics have contributed to growing interest among homeowners who plan to remain in their properties for extended periods.
Industry observers note that economic conditions have influenced how homeowners approach major property investments. With construction labor in high demand and material prices remaining elevated, some property owners are prioritizing projects that do not require repeated future expenditures. The fencing sector has seen particular movement toward permanent materials as replacement cycles for traditional options have become more costly.
"The conversations we have with clients have changed considerably," Yasharel said. "Five years ago, most people asked about price per linear foot. Now they ask how long the fence will last and what it will cost them over 20 years. That shift in thinking is driving our growth and prompted us to invest in expanded capacity."
The company offers precast systems in multiple finishes, including options that replicate the appearance of stone, brick, and stucco. These designs allow the fencing to complement a range of architectural styles while maintaining the structural characteristics of concrete construction. The variety of available finishes has broadened the appeal of precast fencing beyond commercial and industrial applications into residential neighborhoods and planned communities.
As part of the expansion, American Precast Fences has also reduced estimated project lead times for new installations. The additional crews enable the company to schedule projects more efficiently and take on larger installations for developers, homeowner associations, and multi-property developments. Commercial clients have shown increased interest in precast solutions for properties where consistent perimeter appearance and reduced long-term maintenance obligations are priorities.
Real estate professionals have noted that permanent perimeter improvements can influence property valuations over time. Unlike wood fencing that may show visible weathering during resale, concrete fencing tends to maintain a consistent appearance regardless of age, which can affect buyer perception during transactions.
