Residential Fence Types We Install

K & A Landscaping installs several fence styles suited to Jacksonville homes and yards. 


  • Wood fences offer a classic, natural look and work well for privacy in neighborhoods like Mandarin and Southside. Board-on-board and shadowbox styles are popular choices.
  • Vinyl fences resist Florida's humidity, salt air, and UV exposure. Many HOA communities on the Southside prefer white vinyl for its clean, uniform appearance.
  • Picket fences add curb appeal to front yards, where Jacksonville's zoning limits fence height to 4 feet in most residential districts.
  • Privacy fences are commonly requested for pool enclosures, pet containment, and rear yard separation across Riverside and San Marco.
  • Chain-link fences provide a durable, budget-friendly perimeter solution for larger properties, pet runs, and utility areas.

 

Vinyl and aluminum hold up particularly well against the moisture and wind Northeast Florida homeowners experience through summer storm season.

Do I Need HOA Approval Before Installing a Residential Fence in Jacksonville?

In many Jacksonville neighborhoods, yes. HOA covenants and deed restrictions operate independently from city fence rules and are often more restrictive. Most associations require architectural review board approval before work starts. Building without HOA approval can result in daily fines, a lien on your property, or a legal order to remove the fence.

Common HOA requirements include approved materials, height limits below what the city allows, color restrictions, and gate placement rules. Historic districtsincluding Avondale, Riverside, Springfield, and San Marco add design-review requirements. K & A Landscaping can help you understand your community's rules before the first post is set.

Jacksonville Permit and Zoning Basics

Most residential fences must follow Duval County zoning rules even when a building permit is not required. Jacksonville height limits are 6 feet in rear and side yards and 4 feet in front yards. A building permit is required for any fence exceeding 6 feet, and those fences must also satisfy Florida Building Code wind-load requirements. Pool barrier fences must meet Florida Building Code standards for gate latching and minimum height regardless of overall fence design. Permit applications are submitted through the COJ JaxEPICS online portal.
