Testimonials

  • I highly recommend Superior Fence & Rail!

    “I highly recommend Superior Fence & Rail! I was recommended to them by a colleague and Jay & the team provided excellent communication, were reasonably priced, and were extremely timely! I live in a new construction area and see other fence companies take days even weeks to wrap up a project.. Superior Fence & Rail were in and out in a day! I look forward to recommending them to anyone looking for a fence in the East Metro.”

    Noah T.

  • They did a great job, it looks great.

    “They did a great job, it looks great. A huge improvement on the old falling down wood fence. Removing the old fence was not an ordinary situation, but they did it and even worked around a neighbors tree that was right up to the fence line. They were very respectful of the yard, cleaned up, did a great job. Also, they were timely with all communication.”

    Katrina D.

  • We had a great experience with Superior Fencing & Rail and couldn't be happier with our new fence.

    “We had a great experience with Superior Fencing & Rail and couldn't be happier with our new fence. From the beginning, their team was incredibly responsive, helpful, and easy to work with. They took the time to answer our questions and made sure we got exactly what we wanted. What really impressed us was how efficient they were—they completed our entire fence in just one day, and the quality of the work was outstanding. The crew was professional, hardworking, and left everything looking great when the job was finished. On top of that, their pricing was very fair for the project we wanted completed. It's not always easy to find a company that delivers great service, quality work, and a great value, but Superior Fencing & Rail did exactly that. We would highly recommend Superior Fencing & Rail to anyone looking for a new fence. We're extremely happy with the results and grateful for such a smooth experience.”

  • Superior Fence & Rail of St.

    “Superior Fence & Rail of St. Paul did a beautiful job. They were here at the time they said they would be here and finished the fence the same day. They cleaned up after themselves and left nothing behind. They checked with us to make sure the fence line was right and asked about the gate in the back of the yard of how we wanted it to swing and then took care of it right away. I would recommend them to anybody that asked. The salesman Tanner was ready and able to answer any questions that we had along the way and the staff in the office were extremely pleasant when talking on the phone with them. From the start of our project to the end, we were kept informed of when they were going to schedule the fence with no delays.”

    Kathy B.

  • They showed up on time, did all the work in one day, no additional charges and the fence looks great.

    “They showed up on time, did all the work in one day, no additional charges and the fence looks great. Very happy with them.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Saint Paul requires a fence permit for construction of any fence in the city, including wood privacy, picket, and chain link. Fence inspections are not required except for fences greater than 7 feet tall, swimming pool fences, or barbed wire fences. Apply through the city's online permitting portal. The city also strongly encourages discussing your fence plan with your neighbors before installation. Your fence and all supporting structures must be located entirely inside your property line. We file permits on every project and know the Heritage Preservation Commission process for historic district properties. Your local Superior Fence & Rail team will handle everything.

Minnesota's frost line in the Saint Paul area is approximately 42 to 48 inches, one of the deepest in the contiguous United States. Posts must be set below this depth to prevent heaving during freeze-thaw cycles. Saint Paul's winters regularly bring extended periods below 0°F and significant snow accumulation that tests fence structural integrity. Vinyl and aluminum resist freeze-thaw cracking better than wood in these extreme conditions. Cedar is the preferred wood option for its natural moisture resistance. Powder-coated aluminum is particularly popular for pool enclosures and decorative fencing for its corrosion resistance to road salt. Our crews set every post to Minnesota's frost depth requirements on every build.

Saint Paul's extensive Mississippi River frontage, including the 72-mile Mississippi National River and Recreation Area corridor, creates shoreline management restrictions and public access requirements for properties near the river. Properties in designated flood zones near the Mississippi River must comply with flood zone development requirements for fence installation. The city's dramatic river bluffs in neighborhoods like West Seventh also create critical slope areas where additional review may be required. Checking your flood zone status and confirming easement conditions before planning any fence near the Mississippi is an important first step. Your local Superior Fence & Rail team can help you navigate what's needed based on your address.

Saint Paul has several designated historic districts where exterior changes including fence installation require review by the Heritage Preservation Commission. Summit Avenue, home to the largest collection of Victorian mansions in the United States, and the Irvine Park neighborhood are among the most significant. The HPC evaluates fence materials, height, and design for compatibility with the historic character of each area. Contacting Saint Paul's Department of Safety and Inspections early in the planning process is essential for any fence project in or adjacent to a designated historic district. Our team is familiar with Saint Paul's historic neighborhoods and can recommend styles likely to be approved.

Saint Paul experiences some of the harshest winter conditions of any major U.S. city, temperatures regularly reaching -20°F or colder, heavy snowfall, and repeated freeze-thaw cycles from October through April. These conditions demand careful material and installation choices. Vinyl can crack in extreme cold if impacted, while aluminum maintains structural integrity across Saint Paul's temperature extremes. Cedar is the preferred wood choice for its natural cold-weather performance. Road salt application on Saint Paul's streets accelerates corrosion on unprotected metals; powder-coated aluminum and galvanized hardware are essential for fences near roadways. Our team builds to Minnesota's demanding climate standards on every project.

Saint Paul Fence Company

Responsive support, qualified team members, and high-standard materials

Minnesota’s frost line runs deep enough that the state building code requires footings at least 42 inches down in this part of the state, well past what most homeowners assume a fence post needs. Get that wrong and you’re looking at leaning posts within a winter or two, not a slow decline over years. Superior Fence & Rail builds every install around that reality from the start. We’re the fence company in Saint Paul that treats frost depth as a given, not an afterthought, along with materials chosen for how this climate actually treats them.

You’ll hear from us before, during, and after your project. Our team takes the time to understand what you actually need, not just the fence dimensions. We want to know why you’re building it, how you use your yard, and what kind of upkeep you’re willing to do. Good communication isn’t a bonus, it’s how every job runs here.

Fence Company Near Me in Saint Paul

Spend any time on the East Side and you start to notice things. Dayton’s Bluff and Payne-Phalen have narrower lots than most people expect, trees that crowd the fence line, and old installations that predate the city’s current permitting requirements by decades. Those conditions don’t slow our crews down. Highland Park, Macalester-Groveland, Como Park, Summit Hill, Hamline Midway, Thomas Dale, Saint Anthony Park, Battle Creek, the West Side, Greater Eastside — we’ve worked in all of them, and we know what to expect when we pull up.

Saint Paul Fence Contractor

Showing up and swinging a post driver isn’t the job. The job is knowing which species of wood holds up after five Minnesota freeze-thaw cycles, which HOA boards in the Summit Hill and Highland Park areas enforce strict height and style covenants, and how to pull a permit in Ramsey County without adding three weeks to a project timeline. That’s the kind of experience that separates a fence contractor in Saint Paul who does this every day from one who figures it out on your property.

Our crews are trained and consistent. You’re not getting a different subcontractor every time; you’re getting the same professional team, with the same standards, on every job.

Saint Paul Fence Builder

It starts with a site visit, not a phone estimate. We come to your property, walk the fence line with you, take accurate measurements, and talk through what you’re actually trying to accomplish. Privacy from a neighboring building, a safe space for a dog who’s a dedicated escape artist, pool compliance, curb appeal on a corner lot. From there we put together a written estimate with material options, help you compare what makes sense for your specific situation, and lock in a schedule with materials staged and ready. We don’t start a job without everything on-site, which means your project moves on the timeline we agreed on.

Saint Paul Fence Installation

Most of the problems people have on installation day trace back to decisions made the week before. We address all of that before anyone sets foot on your property. Utility locations get confirmed, the layout gets reviewed, and materials are staged and accounted for so your fence installation day runs on an actual schedule instead of turning into an all-week ordeal.

Our crews work cleanly. If we’re near landscaping you care about, we protect it. When the job wraps, we do a walkthrough with you, not just a handshake and a drive away. You get the chance to look at everything while we’re still there.

Saint Paul Fence Financing

A new fence is a real investment, and for a lot of homeowners the timing just doesn’t line up with having the full amount on hand. That’s not unusual, and it’s not a reason to put the project off. Our fence financing options are built to give you a manageable path forward without pressure. You can explore what’s available, see what fits your budget, and make a decision that actually works for you, not just for the calendar.

Some homeowners have the full amount ready. A lot don’t, and that gap is often the only thing standing between a project that happens this fall and one that gets pushed to next spring, then the spring after that. Financing moves that decision off the back burner. The process isn’t complicated, and nobody’s going to run you through a hard sell. If the numbers work for you, great. If they don’t, we’ll tell you that too.

Saint Paul Fencing Options

Saint Paul yards vary a lot. The needs for a bungalow in Como Park look nothing like what a newer build near Battle Creek requires, and commercial properties in Midway have a completely different priority list than a Highland Park fence going in around a backyard pool. Vinyl is popular in HOA communities for a simple reason; it looks the same in year eight as it did in year one, no painting required. Cedar is a better fit for the older blocks in Macalester-Groveland and Summit Hill, where the streetscape has character and people want their fence to match it. Wood needs periodic treatment, though. Redwood holds up a bit longer between maintenance cycles, which is worth knowing if that kind of upkeep sounds like something you’d skip. For commercial work or anywhere that needs real rigidity, steel outperforms standard aluminum and holds its shape under load in ways that matter when you’re fencing a larger perimeter.

We also install wood fencing, chain link, Trex composite, pool fencing, and dog fencing built to contain even determined breeds. Gates and entry systems round out the options for properties that need controlled access. Browse our available fence styles to see what fits your property, your priorities, and what Minnesota will actually let you keep looking good for more than a few seasons.

Superior Fence & Rail Wants to Be Your Saint Paul Fence Installation Contractor

Plenty of fence companies will take your call. Fewer of them know that the Ramsey County permit desk has specific turnaround windows that affect scheduling, or that certain HOA boards in the Highland and Summit districts have architectural review processes that need to be factored in before a single post goes in the ground. That kind of local knowledge is what we bring to every job. When you’re ready to get a real number and a real timeline, contact our Saint Paul team and we’ll set up a free on-site estimate.
