Yes, in most cases. Sunnyvale requires permits for fences over three and a half feet in front yards and over six feet along the sides and rear. Your contractor should pull the permit for you. The American Fence Association recommends always confirming permit requirements with your local building department before any work begins.
Both work well, but they behave differently. Wood looks natural and can last 15 to 20 years with regular sealing every two to three years. Vinyl resists moisture entirely and requires almost no maintenance - a real advantage given the Bay Area's wet winters. If you want to avoid the annual upkeep cycle, vinyl is the lower-effort choice.
Sunnyvale sits on clay-heavy soil that swells when wet and shrinks when dry. This movement can push posts out of alignment over years if they are not set deep enough in properly sized concrete footings. If your fence is starting to lean and you have had several wet winters, shallow posts are often the reason.
California law requires a fence or barrier around residential pools that is at least 60 inches tall, with a self-closing, self-latching gate. Sunnyvale enforces these rules through its permit process. If you are installing a pool or your current pool barrier does not meet code, a fence contractor can help you choose and install a compliant enclosure. The California Department of Public Health publishes the full pool barrier requirements.
California's Good Neighbor Fence Law generally treats a fence on a shared boundary as a shared responsibility - both neighbors can be required to contribute to maintenance costs. Before installation starts, a brief conversation with your neighbor can prevent disputes later. Confirm your property line with a survey if there is any uncertainty about where the fence should go.
Most contractors recommend waiting 30 to 60 days after a wood fence is installed before applying a sealant or stain. New wood needs time to dry out and settle first. After that initial wait, the California Redwood Association recommends sealing every two to three years to protect against moisture and UV damage - particularly before the Bay Area rainy season begins in November.
For national fencing standards and installer guidelines, the American Fence Association is the leading industry resource.

If fewer than a quarter of your boards are damaged, targeted repairs usually make financial sense. When posts are leaning, concrete footings have failed, or more than a third of the fence is compromised, a full replacement costs less in the long run than patching repeatedly.
Wood suits homeowners who want a natural look and are willing to seal every two to three years. Vinyl and aluminum are the right choice if you want low maintenance. Chain link is the most budget-friendly option for boundary or pet-containment fences where appearance is secondary.
An unpermitted fence can trigger a required removal notice from the city. It can also come up during a home sale and cost you at the negotiating table. The permit adds time to the front end - usually one to two weeks - but protects your investment permanently.

Sunnyvale is a mid-sized Silicon Valley city with around 155,000 residents and one of the most valuable housing markets in the country. Most of its single-family homes were built between the 1950s and 1980s - ranch-style houses on compact lots in neighborhoods that have been home to the same families for decades. If your home is in that range, there is a good chance the fencing around it is original to the property or close to it. You can learn more about the city at the City of Sunnyvale website.
Landmarks like Heritage Park Museum near downtown and the historic Murphy Avenue district anchor older neighborhoods where ranch homes sit close together on 5,000 to 7,500 square foot lots. Closer to the Sunnyvale Caltrain station and along El Camino Real, newer townhomes and condos are going up with different fencing needs. We work across all of these neighborhoods and know what each one typically requires.
The clay-heavy soil across much of the Santa Clara Valley is one of the main reasons fences in this area need attention sooner than homeowners expect. Seasonal swelling and shrinking pushes posts out of alignment year after year. We set our posts deeper and with more concrete than the minimum because we know what this soil does over time. If your fence has been leaning gradually and you are not sure whether to repair or replace, we are happy to come out and give you an honest assessment - no commitment required.
