Premier San Luis Fence is the fence contractor Foothills homeowners call for pool fencing, wrought iron, privacy fences, and custom gate work. We have served this desert community since 2015, we respond within one business day, and every estimate is free.

Backyard pools are common throughout the Foothills, where homeowners install them to cope with summers that regularly reach 100 degrees and above. Arizona requires a compliant pool barrier, and our pool fence installation service handles permit coordination and installs barriers that meet state code while fitting the aesthetic of desert landscape designs.
Wrought iron and ornamental iron are the most common fence materials in the Foothills, where HOA communities and higher-end properties want a boundary treatment that matches desert landscaping and custom home exteriors. Powder-coated iron resists the intense UV and dry heat that bleach and degrade lesser materials faster here than almost anywhere else in the country.
Foothills homes on larger lots often use a privacy fence to enclose a back patio or pool deck from neighboring properties. Vinyl and treated wood both work well here; we help you choose based on how much direct sun the fence line gets and whether your HOA has a material preference.
Gated driveways are a practical choice in the Foothills, where many neighborhoods have wider lots and longer driveways that benefit from a controlled entry. We install motorized swing and slide gates with keypad or remote access, sealed for desert heat and dust exposure.
Monsoon season hits the Foothills hard every summer - storm runoff from the Santa Catalina Mountains can undercut fence posts on sloped lots, and wind gusts damage gates and weaken rails. We repair post damage, straighten leaning sections, and replace storm-damaged hardware quickly after severe weather.
Vinyl is a no-maintenance option that works well in Foothills yards with desert landscaping - there is no wood to seal, no metal to rust, and no paint to touch up after the summer UV exposure. It is a popular choice for homeowners who want a clean look without ongoing upkeep.
The Foothills sits at the edge of the Sonoran Desert and the base of the Santa Catalina Mountains, which creates a specific set of challenges for fencing that contractors from other parts of Arizona may not fully understand. Lots here are often larger than in central Tucson and are landscaped with decomposed granite, boulders, and native desert plants. That rocky, uneven terrain requires careful post-hole assessment before any installation begins. The combination of intense UV exposure - typically over 300 sunny days per year - and temperature swings between hot summers and freezing winter nights accelerates wear on most materials faster than homeowners expect.
HOA communities are widespread in the Foothills, and most have rules about fence height, materials, color, and placement. Many homeowners here have been turned down by contractors who submitted unapproved materials or skipped the HOA process entirely. We work with homeowners to choose materials that satisfy the community rules and get the documentation in order before the first post goes in the ground. The homes in this area - built mostly between the 1970s and 1990s - are also at the age where original block walls and iron fencing need professional assessment to determine whether repair or replacement is the better investment.
Our crew works throughout the Foothills regularly, and we understand the local conditions that affect fence contractor work here. The Foothills is an unincorporated community in Pima County, so permits are pulled from the Pima County Development Services Building division, not from a city hall - a distinction that affects the timeline and paperwork for every job we do here.
Skyline Drive and Sunrise Drive are the main roads through the heart of the Foothills, and we work on homes all along these corridors and on the quieter streets that branch off toward the mountain roads. The neighborhood borders Sabino Canyon Recreation Area to the east - homes near the canyon often sit on larger desert lots where native vegetation and boulders need to be worked around during installation. La Encantada shopping center on Skyline Drive is a well-known local landmark that marks the center of the community, and the area generally has a quieter, more established feel than parts of Tucson closer to the university.
We also serve Dome Valley, AZ and other communities throughout the region, so we move between different permit systems and soil types regularly and come prepared for what each area requires.
Reach us by phone or through the contact form. We respond within one business day, and most calls are returned the same day we receive them.
We come to your Foothills property, walk the fence line, and assess the terrain and soil conditions before quoting a price. We also review any HOA requirements at this appointment so there are no surprises on cost later.
If your neighborhood requires HOA approval or a Pima County building permit, we handle both. We prepare the documentation, submit the application, and schedule installation once approvals are in hand.
Most residential fences in the Foothills are installed in one to two days. We clear all debris from your property and walk the completed fence with you before we leave.

(928) 291-0483The Foothills is a residential community in the northeastern corner of Tucson, set at the base of the Santa Catalina Mountains. It is an unincorporated community within Pima County, not a separate city, but it has a distinct identity that long-time residents take seriously. Homes here were built mostly between the 1970s and 1990s - a mix of ranch-style and custom homes on lots that are generally larger than in central Tucson. Many properties are valued above the Tucson average, and owner-occupancy rates are high. Residents tend to stay for years, invest in their properties, and expect contractors to do the same quality of work they would expect from a specialist.
The area borders Sabino Canyon Recreation Area, and many streets in the neighborhood back up directly to desert washes and native vegetation. HOA communities are common throughout the Foothills, with desert landscaping standards and fence material requirements that reflect the neighborhood character. The community is served by major corridors including Skyline Drive and Sunrise Drive, and is a short drive from Yuma, AZ to the west and other communities we serve regularly throughout the region, including Fortuna Foothills, AZ.
