Wood Fencing

Wood Fencing can add a touch of elegance and sophistication to any yard. Wood fences are an excellent choice for privacy fencing, whether it be in terms of noise barriers or, more commonly, visual barriers. Wood fences (along with their vinyl copy-cats) provide some of the most attractive fencing options available when your chief concern is creating a backyard sanctuary.

In choosing between types of wood fences, consider their potential for compatibility both with your house style and with your landscape-design style. The stockade style offers an example of a wood fence design that can afford a solid visual barrier between your yard and your neighbor's, resulting in almost total privacy. While masonry work such as brick can do the same, it costs significantly more than does a wood fence.

Solid wood fences can provide compelling backdrops for plantings. While the airier wood fence designs (e.g., split-rail and picket-style wood fences) can serve either as foregrounds or backgrounds for planting beds. Whatever the choice is, you will have confidence that your new wood fence will be the envy of all neighbors.
