Unincorporated Guadalupe County sets no fence height limit. Texas counties cannot zone, so the county neither caps fence height nor issues fence permits. Inside Seguin, Schertz, or Cibolo city limits, and in HOA subdivisions, fences are typically capped at six feet in the rear and four in front.
No county fence-height ordinance exists anywhere in unincorporated Guadalupe County. Because Texas counties have no zoning authority under state law, the Commissioners Court cannot regulate residential fence height. Real limits come from two sources: recorded HOA deed restrictions in the suburban subdivisions around Schertz and Cibolo, which usually cap rear fences at six feet and restrict front-yard fencing, and city zoning inside Seguin, Schertz, and Cibolo, where the common pattern is six feet in side and rear yards and four feet in front. A survey settles where the fence sits relative to the property line.
The county issues no fence-height citations in unincorporated areas. Cities enforce their zoning limits, and an HOA enforces its own through deed-restriction letters, fines, and civil action; the county plays no role.
