Jerith Construction in Colton, CA | Square Deal Contractors
We’re Square Deal Contractors, an independent General Contractor – Colton providing Jerith aluminum fence and railing installation, repair, and replacement across Colton, CA. The short version: we know Jerith’s Regis, Infinity, and Grandview lines inside out, and we know how Colton’s Santa Ana winds and canyon runoff punish fencing differently than the flat grid streets downtown. We’re not authorized or sponsored by Jerith, and we say that plainly so there’s no confusion about who stands behind the work. Call (866) 623-7205 for a free estimate on your Jerith project in Colton.
Why Colton Residents Choose Us for Jerith Service
Most fence crews in the Inland Empire install whatever panel their supplier has in the yard. We carry genuine Jerith sales & service experience across the brand’s powder-coated aluminum systems, which means we can match existing profiles, order correct caps and gate hardware, and tell you honestly whether a wobbly post is a footing problem or a panel problem. Nolan Breckett, our owner, has spent decades sequencing exterior work so that one trade doesn’t undo another. That matters in Colton, where a fence line often shares a property edge with drainage swales, retaining walls, and stucco repair zones from the same storm cycle. One contractor, every phase, so the fence doesn’t get re-racked by a drainage fix six months later.

Common Jerith Construction Problems We Solve in Colton
- Powder-coat chalking and fading on west-facing runs. Colton’s summer sun sits hard on anything facing the San Bernardino Mountains, and Santa Ana grit scours the finish over time. Older Jerith panels on the canyon-edge side start looking chalky and washed out after eight to ten years. We clean, prep, and color-match touch-up on panels worth saving, and recommend replacement panels only when the coating has failed down to bare aluminum.
- Post footings undermined by winter runoff. This is the big one on hillside lots toward Reche Canyon. Water moves fast off bare slopes, and when it channels along a fence line, the concrete around Jerith posts gets undercut. The line racks out of plumb, and gates start dragging. We re-set posts in deeper concrete and regrade the base so water doesn’t channel into the footing next season.
- Gate sag and hinge wear from wind load and foot traffic. Colton’s working rail-and-warehouse economy means walk gates and drive gates get cycled more than in a quiet bedroom suburb. Add wind pressure on the grandview panels, and hinges loosen fast. We straighten, shim, and re-hang gates with fresh hardware so they cycle clean instead of dragging a groove into the paver or concrete below.
- Galvanic corrosion at cut ends and scratches. Where an old Jerith install was cut on site and never touched up, the exposed aluminum starts to pit and blister. We see this a lot on mid-century Colton tracts where fence lines butted against stucco, and the installer cut panels to fit an odd corner. If the profile is still current, we source matching panels. If it’s discontinued, we match a quality aluminum extrusion and powder coat it to blend.
- Wind-racked lines along exposed canyon edges. Santa Ana events hit the badlands edge with sustained gusts that push on every panel. On a flat Fontana lot, a Jerith fence rarely moves. On a Colton hillside lot, poorly set footings will rack the line in a single season. We set those posts deeper and tie the fence differently around grade changes.
Jerith Service in Colton: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Colton sits at the foot of Reche Canyon and the badlands below the San Bernardino Mountains, and the lots up toward the canyon shed storm water faster than anywhere on the valley floor. For Jerith fence owners, that means post footings have to be engineered for slope drainage, not just dug to a standard depth. On a canyon-edge lot up toward Reche Canyon, we replaced a wind-racked Jerith Regis run where runoff had scoured the footings and left the gate dragging. We re-set the posts in deeper concrete, re-hung the gate with new hinges and caps, and touched up the powder coat on the sun-facing panels. The line is plumb and cycling clean through another Santa Ana season. That’s the difference between Jerith repair in Rubidoux that knows Colton’s slopes and one that treats every lot like a flat grid in Fontana. Know what you’re getting into before the first nail goes in.
Jerith Models & Products We Service in Colton
We work on the Jerith Regis Aluminum Fence, Jerith Infinity Aluminum Fence, and Jerith Grandview Aluminum Fence lines, plus Jerith’s aluminum handrail and pool-code railing systems. Where the profile is still current, we source genuine Jerith replacement panels, posts, caps, and gate hardware. When a line has been discontinued, we match quality aluminum extrusions and powder-coated components so the repair blends without waiting on a backorder that may never ship. For most Colton jobs, we have common post caps, gate hinges, and touch-up coatings on hand or available within a day or two, because we know the failure modes this climate produces. If a fence run is sound except for a gate or a few panels, we repair it. We recommend full replacement only when footings or posts are structurally compromised by slope movement.

FAQs – Jerith Construction in Colton
No. We’re an independent general contractor with years of hands-on Jerith installation and repair experience in Colton. We source genuine Jerith parts where the profile is current and match quality aluminum components where it isn’t. Our workmanship warranty comes from us, not Jerith, and we’re clear about that from the first call.
Usually, yes. Jerith’s Regis and Infinity lines have been around long enough that panels, caps, and gate hardware are often still available. Where a profile was discontinued, we match a quality aluminum extrusion and powder coat it to blend with the existing run. We’ll tell you before we order anything whether the match is exact or close.
Yes, and that’s where being a general contractor helps. We install paver driveways, concrete walkways, and fence lines under one scope, so the fence posts go in before the pavers get laid, and the gate swing clears the finished grade. If you’re doing a paver driveway and Grand Terrace Jerith service in Colton, we sequence both so nothing gets torn out and redone. Call (866) 623-7205 for a combined estimate.
A gate re-hang or post re-set is often a one-day job. A full line replacement on a canyon-edge lot with multiple footings to re-set might take two to three days, depending on access and how much regrading the drainage needs. We’ll give you a straight timeline when we bid it.
That depends on what failed. A single gate hinge repair might run in the low hundreds, while re-setting a racked post line with regrading can run into the thousands. Our fence installation ranges above cover full replacements and new runs. Call (866) 623-7205 to get an exact number for your property, and the estimate won’t cost you a thing.
