Your Local St. Louis City Fence Company
St. Louis Fence Co. is headquartered at 5314 Lansdowne Ave in the Lindenwood Park neighborhood of South City — so when a St. Louis homeowner calls about a new fence or a repair, we're not driving in from another county. We're already here. For decades we've built and repaired wood, vinyl, chain-link and ornamental fences across the city, from the brick bungalows of St. Louis Hills and Southampton to the historic flats of Tower Grove, Soulard and Lafayette Square.
City fencing has its own quirks — tight lots, gangways and alleys, shared property lines, historic-district rules and a citywide permit process — and we know them well. We'll help you choose the right fence for your block, handle the permit details, and build it to last through St. Louis's humid summers and freeze-thaw winters.
Fencing Built for St. Louis City Homes
Small Lots, Gangways & Alleys
Classic city lots are narrow and deep, with gangways between houses and alleys out back. We're experienced with the gates, privacy fencing and tight-access layouts that city properties call for — including securing a backyard while keeping alley and gangway access workable.
Historic Character & Permits
From Lafayette Square to the Hill, many St. Louis neighborhoods have a distinct character (and some sit in historic or preservation districts with rules on fence height, materials and placement). St. Louis City also requires a fence permit for most projects. We help homeowners navigate the permit process and any neighborhood requirements so the job is done by the book.
Clay Soil & Freeze-Thaw
Like the rest of the region, the city sits on heavy clay that swells and shrinks with the seasons, and our freeze-thaw winters heave shallow posts. We set posts at the right depth in concrete so your fence stays straight and solid for years — not just for a season.

St. Louis Fencing FAQs
Most fence projects in St. Louis City require a permit, and some historic or preservation districts have additional rules on height, materials and placement. We help homeowners navigate the permit process and neighborhood requirements so your project is done correctly the first time.
It depends on the material, length, height and your lot — a chain-link run costs far less than a tall cedar privacy fence. The best way to get an accurate number is a free on-site estimate, where we measure and give you a transparent written quote with no obligation.
