Fencing a Los Robles home
Los Robles is a small triangle of homes just east of Lake Ella, between Thomasville and Meridian roads. The Los Robles Gate, a Mediterranean Revival arch at the intersection of Thomasville and Meridian roads, marks the entrance and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Houses here span Colonial Revival, English cottage, Tudor, ranch and a few Spanish-style homes with stucco and tile roofs. Fences tend to be discreet: low picket or iron out front, privacy fencing behind the house, and gates that match the home's style.
A 1926 Mediterranean-style subdivision
Los Robles was laid out in 1926 as a Mediterranean-themed subdivision on what was then the edge of a small capital city, and its arched gate became the neighborhood's landmark. Los robles is Spanish for the oaks, and the streets carry Spanish names.
The gate has been restored over the years and still marks the entrance to the neighborhood.
Old oaks and small lots
The oaks that gave Los Robles its name are the biggest factor in fence work here. Their roots run across yards and under driveways, and post holes need to be placed and dug carefully so the trees aren't harmed.
Lots are modest, and many fences run close to neighbors' homes and driveways. Hand digging and careful staging of materials are common.
Protect yourself with a written scope, a clear payment schedule and your own check of the contractor's license and insurance. Be cautious with large cash deposits or pressure to sign the same day.
