Local Fence Installation and Repair in Lackland & Valley Hi
Home › Areas We Serve › Lackland & Valley Hi
The Lackland and Valley Hi area is on San Antonio’s Southwest Side, around Joint Base San Antonio–Lackland and along Valley Hi Drive, Military Drive, Loop 410, and US 90. It is a mix of established neighborhoods and newer subdivisions, with many military families, renters, and homeowners who move on a schedule. Fences here often need to be put right quickly, before a move-in, a sale, or a new dog. You Picket Fence Co. builds and repairs wood privacy fences, gates, metal-post fences, and staining projects in the Lackland and Valley Hi area.
Soil and Terrain in Lackland & Valley Hi
The Southwest Side is mostly flat to gently rolling, with clay soils that swell when wet and shrink in drought. That movement is a big reason posts lean and gates sag over time. We set posts 24–36 inches deep in concrete, recommend galvanized steel posts where the ground moves a lot, and keep pickets off the ground where water sits after storms.
Neighborhood Rules and Permits in Lackland & Valley Hi
Some newer subdivisions in the area have HOAs with fence rules, while many older neighborhoods have none. If you rent, the owner or property manager usually needs to approve fence work. Share whatever rules apply and we’ll build to them.
Permits: Most of the Lackland and Valley Hi area is part of the City of San Antonio, so fence projects fall under the city’s Development Services Department rather than a separate city hall. Generally, standard residential fences up to a certain height don’t need a permit, while taller fences, some front-yard fences, and fences in historic districts can; HOA rules may also apply. We confirm current requirements for your address before building. (General guidance; confirm current rules with the city before you build.)
Popular Fence Styles in Lackland & Valley Hi
Six-foot wood privacy fences, fence repairs after storms or wear, steel-post retrofits, gate fixes, and fresh stain before a move or sale are the most common projects here. Nearby on the west side, see our Far West San Antonio and Westover Hills pages.
If you’re on orders and working against a move date, tell us at the estimate. We give a clear written scope you can review on your own time, and online booking makes it easy to set up an estimate around duty hours. For homes being sold or rented out, a repair-and-stain is often enough; when replacement makes more sense, we’ll explain why.

Why Lackland & Valley Hi Homeowners Call Us
We are a local San Antonio fence company rated 5.0 on Google by our customers, and the owner is involved in estimates and jobs. We measure before we price, put the full scope in writing, and recommend materials based on what holds up in local soil and weather rather than what is cheapest to install. Our standard privacy fences use three pressure-treated rails and posts set deep in concrete, gates are framed to swing and latch cleanly, and we clean the jobsite before we call a project finished.
