Handyman in Compton: FAQ
How tall can a front fence be in Compton?
On a residential street the front-yard fence can be up to 3 1/2 feet, and it has to be open or a combination, like wrought iron or picket over a low base. Rear and side fences between homes run 5 to 6 feet and solid. Chain link isn't allowed along a house's front yard.
Which way does my gate have to open?
Inward or sliding. The code says no gate may swing out over a public right-of-way, so gates open parallel to the fence or onto the property itself.
Is there help with repair costs for low-income owners?
The city's Home Repair Grant helps low-income, owner-occupied households with repairs like painting, screens, smoke alarms and toilets. It's a small program, so ask the city first. We aren't part of it.
Are your prices the same in Compton?
Yes. The same upfront flat pricing applies across LA, including Compton. You approve the price before we start.
