We're the local shop that shows up, does the work right, and leaves your property clean.

Fencing for Hobe Sound Coastal Properties

Hobe Sound sits on sandy coastal plain soil where post footing and concrete depth carry the load that clay would otherwise share. Salt air from the Atlantic corrodes steel fasteners and galvanizing fast, and sustained humidity rots untreated wood at the ground line. That's why aluminum and vinyl fencing are chosen here for durability, not just looks. We install wood and vinyl privacy fences, chain link, ornamental aluminum and iron, pool barriers, and automatic driveway gates on properties ranging from compact lots near Jonathan Dickinson State Park to sprawling estates with long fence lines and gated drives.

Our team has served Hobe Sound homeowners and property managers for over eight years. We understand the local building department rules, HOA architectural standards in master-planned communities, Florida pool barrier codes, and the importance of Florida 811 utility locates before any post hole goes in the ground. We're AFA Member Installers (American Fence Association), fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage.

How We Work in Hobe Sound

Step 1: Free On-Site Assessment. Call us at (772) 348-4246 or request a quote online. We visit your property in Hobe Sound to measure the fence line, assess soil conditions, identify any utility lines, check local setback and height rules, and review HOA requirements if your property falls under deed restrictions. We ask about your budget, timeline, and what you need the fence to do. That conversation is free, no obligation.

Step 2: Installation or Repair. We handle the work with our own crew. For new fence, we set posts in concrete at proper depth and spacing, install rails and pickets (or chain link mesh and tension bands), and ensure everything is plumb and square. For repairs, we assess whether a fence can be brought back to working order or whether replacement is the better spend. We're honest about both paths. If storm damage has flattened a run or left a gate off its hinges, we document the damage, photograph it, and can help you prepare materials for an insurance claim. Final determination of coverage rests with your insurer.

Step 3: Cleanup and Walkthrough. We remove all debris, haul away old materials, and leave your property clean. We walk through the finished work with you, explain maintenance (especially for wood fences in Hobe Sound's humid salt air), and answer questions about gates, latches, or future repairs.

Pricing in Hobe Sound depends on material, fence length, soil conditions, and site access. Chain link fencing starts at $16 per linear foot; wood privacy fence at $27/ft; vinyl at $38/ft; and aluminum or ornamental iron at $42/ft. Pool fencing runs from $34/ft and must meet state barrier code. Gate installation and repair start at $475; automatic driveway gates from $2,800. Repairs like post replacement or gate rehinging start at $450. Storm damage assessment is free. Staining and restoration of existing wood runs from $950. The best way to know what your project will cost is a free on-site visit. Call (772) 348-4246 and we'll come measure, assess, and give you honest pricing.

Why does my wood fence rot faster in Hobe Sound than it did up north?

Sandy soil drains fast but holds moisture at the post base, especially in Hobe Sound's humid salt air. Untreated wood rots at the ground line within a few years. Pressure-treated pine lasts longer than cedar, but vinyl or aluminum eliminate the problem entirely. If you love the look of wood, plan for staining and sealing every two to three years, and inspect the base of every post each spring.

How deep do fence posts need to be set in Hobe Sound's sandy soil?

Sandy soil holds a post poorly compared to clay. We set posts at least 30 inches deep and always in concrete, not tamped sand alone. For taller fences (6 feet or more) or high-wind exposure near the coast, we go deeper and use larger diameter concrete footings. The concrete, not the sand, carries the load.

Do I need a permit to install a fence in Hobe Sound?

Permit requirements vary. The Hobe Sound area may fall under Martin County or local municipal jurisdiction, and rules differ. Height limits, setbacks, corner visibility, and material restrictions are set by your local building department and may be further restricted by HOA deed restrictions if your property is in a master-planned community. Before you dig or order materials, contact the local building department and review your HOA documents. We can help coordinate that process.

My pool fence doesn't latch or self-close anymore. Do I need to replace the whole fence?

No. Pool barrier hardware, hinges, and latches can be replaced or repaired. Florida law requires self-closing, self-latching gates on pool barriers. If your gate is dragging, off its hinges, or the latch is broken, we can fix it. This is much cheaper than replacing the fence. Call us at (772) 348-4246 and we'll assess whether repair makes sense.

What do I do if a hurricane flattens my fence in Hobe Sound?

Document the damage with photos from multiple angles and note the date and storm name. Contact your insurance company and ask what they need to process a claim. We can help you photograph and document the damage for your claim. Once you have your insurer's approval, call us at (772) 348-4246. We do storm repair work and can give you a realistic timeline and cost to rebuild or repair the fence. Work is honest priced, never sold with fear.

Are you fully insured for work on my Hobe Sound property?

Yes. We carry general liability and workers' compensation insurance. We can provide a certificate of insurance on request. Your property and our crew are protected.

What's the best time of year to install a new fence in Hobe Sound?

Winter, roughly November through March, is the most comfortable window. Summer thunderstorms shorten working days, and hurricane season (June through November) can interrupt schedules. That said, we install year-round because the ground never freezes in Hobe Sound. If you need a fence now, we can usually fit you in. Call (772) 348-4246 to check availability.
