  What you need to know about wood fences...
  A wood fence can be an excellent choice for home security or just privacy. But a wood fence is not as durable as chain link
 
       As seen above... Improperly set wood posts will lean & leave an unaesthetic appearance. Wood should also be treated to with stand weathering. A painted fence will last longer but usually in time posts need to be replaced.
       The life expectancy of a wood fence is 10 - 15 years and then you start replacing posts, and by 20 years it's time to cut it down and use it for firewood.   
      Our fences are rough cut cedar but can be painted, or stained. We do not have control over the wood itself ... Some boards may split or warp (we do leave extra's at each job) and the fence will move more than chain link. Humidity, dry weather, cold and direct sun play a big part in a wood fences over all life expectancy.
   
  Our wood fences have a 2 year guarantee on labor only.
