Expert Fence Installation Services in Sanford, FL
From the historic brick streets of the Residential Historic District to the growing communities near Lake Monroe, Sanford is a city with a deep sense of heritage and a bright future. At Gifford Fence Orlando, we provide premium fencing solutions that respect Sanford’s unique architectural character while providing the modern security and privacy your family needs.
The Gifford Fence Advantage in Sanford
- Digital Permitting Experts: The City of Sanford has transitioned entirely to the Citizenserve online portal for all building permits. We handle the digital signatures, electronic plan reviews, and submittals required by the Sanford Building Division to get your project approved fast.
- Historic District Specialists: If your home is in the Sanford Residential Historic District, a Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) is required. We specialize in the minor-review process for fences and gates, ensuring your materials meet the city's historic preservation standards.
- City vs. County Clarity: Sanford has many pockets of "Unincorporated Seminole County." We verify your jurisdiction upfront—if you are in the city proper, we ensure you meet the city’s specific height and "Sight Triangle" ordinances.
Fencing Solutions for Sanford Neighborhoods
1. Ornamental Aluminum & View-Safe Fencing
Perfect for homes along the Sanford Riverwalk or near the Central Florida Zoo area. Aluminum provides the classic look of wrought iron with zero maintenance and is ideal for maintaining your view of the St. Johns River.
- Ideal for: Lakefront properties, pool safety, and historic curb appeal.
2. Maintenance-Free Vinyl (PVC) Privacy Fencing
The #1 choice for Sanford’s suburban neighborhoods. Our professional-grade vinyl is hurricane-rated and UV-protected to withstand the intense Florida sun without yellowing or warping.
- Best for: Backyard privacy, pet containment, and busy families.
3. Custom Wood & Picket Fencing
For the "Old Florida" feel found in the historic neighborhoods near Fort Mellon Park, we offer premium pressure-treated pine and cedar. We specialize in custom pickets and Board-on-Board designs that provide maximum privacy while allowing for essential airflow.
Navigating Sanford’s Fence Codes & Regulations
We ensure your project is 100% code-compliant to avoid city fines:
- Height Restrictions: Rear and side yard fences are typically allowed up to 6 feet. Front yard fences are strictly limited to 4 feet to maintain the neighborhood's open feel.
- The "Finished Side" Rule: Sanford requires that the "pretty" side of your fence (the side without the rails) must face outward toward your neighbors or the street.
- Visibility Triangles: At intersections and driveways, the city mandates a "Clear Vision Triangle." Within this area, fences cannot exceed 2.5 feet (30 inches) in height to ensure driver safety.
- Pool Safety: All pool fences must be at least 4 feet tall with self-closing, self-latching gates that open away from the pool, per the Florida Building Code.
Local Recognition: "Whether it’s a modern vinyl fence in Oregon Avenue Estates or a historic wood picket near Park Avenue, we build to the 'Sanford Standard'—durable, beautiful, and legal." — Jerry Gifford, Owner
