Wood Types
There are many different types of wood fences and styles to choose from. The most common materials we install are Western Red Cedar and pressure-treated pine, depending on the look, budget, and durability you’re aiming for. See the details of each wood fence style below.
Western Red Cedar
Premium natural wood with a beautiful look and excellent resistance to rot and insects. Great for a higher-end fence that holds up well over time.
Pressure-Treated Pine
Strong, budget-friendly option that’s chemically treated to resist rot and decay. A great choice for durability at a lower cost.
