Privacy Cedar Fences

A cedar privacy fence is perfect for homeowners who value seclusion and security. Tall, solid panels create a peaceful backyard retreat while adding a polished look to your property.

Cedar Picket Fences

A cedar picket fence adds timeless charm and curb appeal. With evenly spaced boards and customizable heights, it’s an excellent choice for defining property lines while maintaining an open, welcoming feel.

Horizontal Cedar Fences

Horizontal cedar fences provide a sleek, modern design that stands out from traditional builds. This style enhances curb appeal with clean lines and can be paired with stained cedar for a contemporary look.

Lattice-Top Cedar Fences

A lattice-top cedar fence blends privacy with decorative flair. Solid panels at the bottom protect your space, while the lattice detail on top adds elegance and allows sunlight to filter through. This design is ideal for those who want functionality with style.

Shadow Box Cedar Fences

Shadow box cedar fences offer semi-privacy with alternating boards on either side of the rail. This design allows airflow and visibility while still creating separation, making it a practical choice for shared property lines.

Board-on-Board Fences

Board-on-board cedar fences provide maximum coverage with a strong, secure structure. This style ensures long-term durability and is popular for homeowners who want a fence that stands up to both weather and use.

Benefits of Our Cedar Fence Projects

When it comes to fencing material, you have options — including aluminum and vinyl. Choosing cedar means investing in a fence that delivers both performance and design versatility.

Naturally Weather-Resistant

Cedar contains natural oils that repel insects and protect against decay, making it one of the best woods for fencing in humid summers and snowy winters.

Long Lifespan With Proper Maintenance

With regular staining and service, cedar fences can last 20 years or more, outlasting many other types of wood fencing.
