New Braunfels is one of America's fastest-growing cities, with master-planned communities expanding north and west while historic Gruene holds onto mature oak and cedar lines along the Guadalupe River bluffs. Your neighborhood is either brand new with young landscaping or established with deep-rooted heritage trees, and both need different fencing strategies.

When a fence leans, sags, or fails in New Braunfels (78130), the culprit is almost always the post, not the panels. Our expansive clay soil swells and shrinks with every wet-dry cycle, heaving posts out of the ground and racking the rails and pickets you see from your patio. That is why homeowners and property managers in New Braunfels call San Antonio Fence Company: we diagnose what actually failed, repair what can hold, and replace only what must go.

Fence Service in New Braunfels (78130)

New Braunfels sits on the same Gulf Coast clay that defines the greater San Antonio area. Single-family homes on quarter-acre and half-acre lots, from modest ranch stock to newer master-planned estates with pools and HOA cedar standards, all face the same soil challenge. The clay heaves fence posts, moisture rots untreated wood at the ground line, and humidity accelerates staining and surface breakdown on vinyl and ornamental metal. Spring storms and the occasional hurricane-season wind can flatten a fence run overnight. Setbacks, height limits, and material rules vary between the city of New Braunfels and Comal County jurisdictions, and HOA architectural standards in the newer subdivisions often govern what you can build.

We have served New Braunfels and the greater San Antonio area since 2015. Our crews are fully insured and bonded, and we hold membership in the American Fence Association. We work from your existing survey and install on the line you identify. We coordinate with the New Braunfels Building Department and your HOA before we start, and we call 811 for utility locates on every post hole. Repair is our first recommendation whenever the fence justifies it. Replacement is honest advice when the posts are too far gone or the panels too damaged to hold.

How a Fence Job Works in New Braunfels

Step one is a free on-site assessment. We walk your fence line, check post stability and concrete set depth, look for rot, rust, or impact damage, and measure the total linear footage and gate count. We photograph the damage and note any HOA restrictions, setback questions, or utility concerns. We discuss repair versus replacement, timeline, and ballpark cost before you commit to anything.

Step two is the work itself. Our crews set posts in concrete at proper spacing, install rails and stringers level and plumb, and hang panels or pickets square. If you have a pool, we install pool fencing to meet local pool barrier codes, with final determination resting with the authority having jurisdiction. We coordinate gate hardware, hinges, and latches so your gate swings true and closes without binding. Tight lot access and HOA coordination are routine for us in New Braunfels' master-planned sections.

Step three is cleanup and final walkthrough. We haul all debris, remove concrete scraps, and leave your property clean. We walk the fence with you, point out the work, and answer questions about maintenance and warranty. We are not done until you are satisfied.

Fence pricing in New Braunfels depends on material, post condition, and whether you are repairing or replacing. Wood and privacy fence starts at $27 per linear foot. Vinyl and PVC fence runs $38 per linear foot. Chain link is the most economical at $16 per linear foot. Aluminum and ornamental iron start at $42 per linear foot. Fence repair runs from $450, and post repair or replacement from $450. Gate installation and repair start at $475. If you need a full fence replacement or removal, expect $2,400 and up depending on the linear footage and site access. Pool fencing runs $34 per linear foot. Storm damage assessment is free. Call us at (830) 266-4023 for a free estimate on your specific project. We will give you honest pricing and explain what you are paying for.

Why does my fence lean in New Braunfels, and is it just the panels that are bad?

Almost always the posts. Our clay soil swells when wet and shrinks when dry, pushing posts up and out of the ground. If the posts are no longer set deep in concrete or the concrete has cracked, the rails and pickets rack and lean even though they are still sound. We can often reset the posts and re-level the fence without replacing panels. A leaning fence is a post problem, not a panel problem.

A storm just knocked down a section of my fence in New Braunfels. What do I do?

Call us at (830) 266-4023 right away. We offer free damage assessment for storm-damaged fences. We will document what happened, photograph the damage, and give you a repair or replacement quote. We can help you document the damage for an insurance claim if you have coverage. Work starts as soon as you approve the estimate and any permits or HOA sign-off are in place.

How much does it cost to remove and replace a wood fence in New Braunfels?

Fence replacement runs $2,400 and up, depending on how many linear feet, what material you choose, and site access. A typical 150-foot privacy fence runs $4,000 to $6,500 for removal and wood installation. Vinyl costs more per foot but lasts longer and needs less maintenance. Call (830) 266-4023 with your linear footage and we will give you a ballpark estimate.

Does the city of New Braunfels require a permit for fence installation?

Fence height, setback, and material rules are set by the city of New Braunfels and Comal County, and they vary depending on your lot location and zoning. If you are in a master-planned community, your HOA architectural standards may be stricter than city code. We coordinate with the New Braunfels Building Department and your HOA before we start. We recommend you check with the city or your HOA first so there are no surprises.

My HOA says I need cedar fence, but I want vinyl. Can I install vinyl in a New Braunfels master-planned community?

No. HOA architectural standards govern material and color in master-planned communities, and they are enforceable. Most New Braunfels HOAs require cedar fence in certain sections because it fits the neighborhood aesthetic. Vinyl, pressure-treated pine, and ornamental metal are not approved in those areas. We can install whatever your HOA permits. If you want to change the standard, you have to petition the HOA first.

Is San Antonio Fence Company fully insured and bonded?

Yes. We are fully insured and bonded with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. We hold membership in the American Fence Association. Our crews are experienced and professional, and we stand behind our work.

My cedar fence is gray and stained. Can it be cleaned and re-stained instead of replaced?

Yes, if the wood is still sound. Fence staining and restoration runs from $950 and restores the cedar color and protects it from sun and humidity. Cedar in the New Braunfels climate needs cleaning and re-staining every two to three years because the humidity accelerates surface breakdown. If the posts are rotted at the ground line or the rails are soft, replacement is the better spend. We can assess the fence and recommend repair or replacement.
