About Tornado Fence Company
Over 25 years of fencing experience in San Diego County, run out of our own yard in Escondido.
A fence contractor, not a middleman
Tornado Fence Company has over 25 years of experience serving North County San Diego. Licensed, bonded, and insured. Free estimates.
Tornado Fence Company has been fencing San Diego County for more than 25 years. We are based at 2270 Meyers Ave Unit B in Escondido, and that address matters: it is a real yard with real materials and real crews, not a call centre that subcontracts your job to whoever answers the phone that week.
We handle residential, commercial, industrial, and HOA fencing. On any given week that might mean a good-neighbor wood fence between two houses in Vista, an ornamental iron run above a retaining wall in Rancho Bernardo, a four-rail corral in Valley Center, and chain link around a work yard in Oceanside. The range is the point — after 25 years there is not much in fencing we have not already solved.
Ask for Jose when you call. You will talk to someone who can actually answer a question about post depth, gate hardware, or what a slope is going to cost you.
Licensed, bonded, and insured
We hold California Contractors State License Board licence number 974886 in the Fencing classification. We carry a $15,000 contractor bond through American Contractors Indemnity Company and maintain workers' compensation coverage through Norguard Insurance Company. You can verify all of that yourself at the CSLB licence lookup, and we would rather you did.
That combination — licence, bond, and workers' comp — is what separates a fence contractor from a crew with a truck. If someone quotes you noticeably less and cannot produce all three, the difference in price is the risk you are absorbing.
How we quote
Estimates are free, done on site, and given to you in writing. A salesman comes out rain or shine, measures the run, checks the grade and the access, and talks through the options. If the fence sits on a shared property line we will discuss the good-neighbor layout with you before quoting, because that conversation is much easier before the fence exists than after.
Returning customers receive five percent off. A large share of our work is repeat business and referrals from people we have already built for, which is the only marketing metric we really watch.

What types of fence does Tornado Fence install?
Tornado Fence installs wood privacy fencing in picture frame, board on board, dog ear, and good-neighbor alternating layouts; galvanized and black vinyl-coated chain link; ornamental iron in standard and Apache styles; vinyl privacy, picket, and ranch rail; code-compliant pool safety enclosures; horse corral, split rail, and lodge pole ranch fencing; and gates from single walk gates to double drive and rolling gates. The company also performs repairs on all of these fence types.
What should I do after a new wood fence is installed?
Seal or stain it. Bare wood in inland North County begins greying and surface-checking within the first summer of UV exposure. Staining early, ideally before or shortly after installation, protects every face of the board and materially extends the fence's service life.
