Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on where you live. Unincorporated St. Johns County, the City of St. Augustine, and St. Augustine Beach each have their own rules and review process, and many HOAs require their own approval on top of that. We confirm what applies to your address and handle the paperwork for you.
In most residential areas of unincorporated St. Johns County, fences can be up to 6 feet tall, but no more than 4 feet within 25 feet of the front property line. Corner lots can usually go to 6 feet along the second street frontage. The Ponte Vedra Zoning District adds its own rules, and the City of St. Augustine sets separate limits, so we verify your lot before anything is ordered.
Many St. Johns County communities, including Nocatee, Palencia, and World Golf Village, review fence style, color, and height before installation. Some view lots on golf courses or lakes have lower height limits. We'll point you toward styles that fit your community's guidelines and help you prepare the submittal.
The price depends on material, height, total footage, gates, and your lot's layout. Chain link and wood usually cost the least upfront, while vinyl and aluminum cost more to install but less to maintain over the years. A free on-site quote gives you an accurate number for your property.
Vinyl and aluminum are the strongest choices for coastal St. Johns County. Vinyl won't rot or need painting, and aluminum won't rust, even with salt air coming off the Intracoastal and the ocean. Wood can still work if you're ready for regular sealing and a check after storm season.
Black aluminum is usually the best fit. It keeps the view open, stands up to moisture, and matches what many golf and lake communities in the county require, which makes approval easier.
St. Johns County requires pools to be fenced unless the yard is already fenced, with a fence at least 4 feet tall and a self-latching gate. Florida Statute Chapter 515 adds that openings can't allow a 4-inch sphere through and that gates must be self-closing and open away from the pool. We build pool fences to meet both.
Yes. Flexible financing lets you spread the cost over time, and you can check which options you qualify for without any impact to your credit score. Our team is happy to walk you through what fits your budget.

St. John's County Fencing Requirements
A St. Johns County Fence Company Built Around How People Live Here
Few counties in Florida have changed as quickly as St. Johns. Farmland near Hastings sits a short drive from master-planned neighborhoods off SR 16 and oceanfront homes in Ponte Vedra Beach, and each one calls for a different kind of fence. A family in Nocatee might need a pool fence that clears architectural review, while a homeowner near the beach needs materials that won’t corrode in the salt air. Superior Fence & Rail builds for all of it.
Homeowners comparing St. Johns fence companies tend to want the same thing: a fence contractor who gives straight answers before any work starts. Which material fits, what will it cost, how long will it take, and what will the county or the HOA allow? Then we install the fence exactly the way we planned it together, and we’re still here when you have a question years later.
Your St. Johns Fence Company Near Me
Good St. Johns fence builders know the ground they build on. Our fence installers work across St. Johns County every week, and three things shape nearly every fence we install here.
Salt and sun. Along the Intracoastal and the Atlantic, salt air eats through cheap hardware and fades low-grade materials. We use vinyl, aluminum, and hardware chosen to hold up on the coast.
Sand and water. Much of the county sits on loose, sandy soil, and low-lying lots near marshes and creeks stay soggy after summer storms. Posts need the right depth and backfill to stay plumb for years, not just a season.
Rules and reviews. Between county zoning, separate city rules in St. Augustine and St. Augustine Beach, and architectural review committees in communities like Nocatee and Palencia, many projects have more than one approval to clear. We know what each reviewer tends to look for, which keeps your project from stalling.
Choosing the Right Fence for Your St. Johns Property
Vinyl fencing is the most requested fence in St. Johns County. It shrugs off humidity and salt, never needs painting, and comes in privacy, semi-privacy, and picket styles that suit everything from coastal cottages to new construction. On golf course, lake, and preserve lots, black aluminum is often the go-to because it keeps the view open and matches what many HOAs require.
If you love the look of wood but not the upkeep, Trex composite fencing resists rot, insects, and warping while keeping its color. For long boundaries on larger rural lots, wood and chain link remain practical, budget-friendly choices. We’ll walk your property and recommend options based on your lot, your goals, and your community’s rules.
Commercial Fencing in St. Johns County
Businesses, HOAs, and property managers across the county rely on us for commercial fence installation. We install security fencing, anti-climb fencing, commercial chain link, ornamental aluminum for amenity centers and storefronts, and access-control gates for lots and facilities. Our commercial fence services are scheduled around your operating hours, with the same local crews and permit handling as our residential work.
Fence Repair and Replacement in St. Johns County
Coastal weather is hard on older fences. When a fence starts leaning, rotting at the posts, or loses sections in a storm, we inspect it and tell you honestly whether a repair makes sense or a replacement is the smarter investment. Many homeowners use a replacement to move from high-maintenance wood to vinyl or aluminum. We remove and haul away the old fence, so the new one goes in on a clean line.
Fences Built for Storm Season
Hurricane season runs from June through November, and a fence takes the brunt of every strong gust. We set posts deep for sandy soil, use heavy-duty hardware, and talk you through designs that let wind pass through when that matters more than full privacy. No fence is storm-proof, but a well-built one has a far better chance of riding out the season.
How Our St. Johns Fence Installation Works
- Free on-site estimate. We walk the property with you and talk through what matters most: privacy, pets, a pool, or a clear property line.
- Clear quote. You get an itemized quote with material options, heights, and gate locations.
- Permits and approvals. We confirm which rules apply to your address, whether that’s the county, the City of St. Augustine, St. Augustine Beach, or your HOA’s architectural review, and we handle the paperwork.
- Layout. We mark the fence line before install day so nothing is left to guesswork.
- Installation. Our crew sets posts for your soil, installs the fence, and cleans up. Most residential installs take one to three days once approvals and materials are in.
- Follow-up. Every installation carries our three-year workmanship warranty, materials come with manufacturer warranties, and vinyl and aluminum fences are backed by a transferable lifetime warranty.
Areas We Serve in St. Johns County
St. Johns County stretches from its northern neighborhoods to the farm fields of Hastings, and fence needs change from one community to the next.
St. Augustine
St. Augustine’s historic neighborhoods are full of older homes, narrow lots, and fence lines that have stood for generations. The city sets its own fence rules apart from the county, and homes in historic districts may need design approval before a new fence goes up. Picket, wood, and aluminum styles that complement older architecture are popular here. Learn more about our St. Augustine fence company services.
St. Augustine Beach
On Anastasia Island, homes in St. Augustine Beach live with constant salt air, sea breeze, and sandy soil. Vinyl and aluminum with corrosion-resistant hardware are the practical picks. The city handles its own permitting, and lots near the dunes can face additional coastal rules, so we confirm the requirements before ordering materials for your St. Augustine Beach fence installation.
Ponte Vedra Beach
Ponte Vedra Beach homes often call for a fence that matches the architecture: ornamental aluminum, estate gates, and clean vinyl privacy lines. Much of the area falls within the Ponte Vedra Zoning District, which adds fence rules beyond the county’s standard limits. Our Ponte Vedra Beach fence company team checks your address before design begins.
Nocatee
Nocatee’s neighborhoods are known for their amenities, backyard pools, and a design review process that covers fence style, color, and height. Many lots back up to lakes and preserves, where black aluminum keeps the view open. As your Nocatee fence company, we help you choose an approved style and prepare the submittal so your project clears review the first time.
Hastings
Hastings is St. Johns County’s farm country, known for its potato-growing heritage and wide-open acreage. Fences here work hard: containing animals, marking long property lines, and holding up through wet summers. Ranch rail, wood, and chain link, along with wide drive gates for trucks and equipment, are common requests for our Hastings fence company crews.
World Golf Village, Palencia, and the SR 16 Corridor
New neighborhoods keep rising along SR 16, from World Golf Village to Silverleaf, and established communities like Palencia add their own architectural standards. Golf course and lake lots often call for black aluminum, and some HOAs limit view-lot fences to four feet. We’ll help you pick a style that fits your community’s guidelines and still gives you the privacy or pet containment you need.
Fence Financing in St. Johns County
A new fence is a real investment, and it doesn’t have to wait for the perfect month. Our fence financing options let you spread the cost over time with a plan that fits your budget, and you can see what you qualify for without affecting your credit score.
Custom Fence Builders in St. Johns County
Most fence builders buy pre-made panels and work around them. Superior Fence & Rail manufactures our own fences. Our vinyl starts as raw extrusions routed on CNC equipment that can produce more than 128 styles, and our fabricators build aluminum fencing, railing, and gates in-house. That control means consistent quality, custom sizing for oddly shaped or sloped lots, and fewer delays waiting on a supplier.
