Wood Fences

Why Choose Wood Fencing?

Wood fences never go out of style. They bring warmth, character, and privacy to any yard. Whether you want a traditional picket fence or a tall privacy barrier, wood gives you flexibility in design that other materials can't match.

In Montclair, CA, wood fences fit right in with both classic and modern homes. Cedar and redwood resist rot naturally, while pressure-treated pine offers an affordable option that still lasts for years. When you work with us, we help you pick the right wood for your climate, budget, and style preferences.

Wood also lets you customize your fence with stains and paint colors that match your home's exterior. You can start with a natural finish and change the color down the road if you want a fresh look.

Popular Wood Fence Styles

We build all kinds of wood fences to suit different needs and tastes:

• Privacy fences: Tall panels with no gaps, perfect for blocking views and creating a secluded backyard
• Picket fences: Classic white or natural wood with decorative pointed tops, great for front yards
• Split rail fences: Open, rustic design ideal for large properties and country-style homes
• Horizontal board fences: Modern, sleek look with boards running side to side instead of up and down
• Shadowbox fences: Boards overlap on both sides for privacy without blocking airflow completely

Each style serves a different purpose. Privacy fences keep nosy neighbors at bay, while picket fences add curb appeal without blocking sightlines. We walk you through the options so you can choose what works best for your property.

Caring for Your Wood Fence

Wood fences need a bit of upkeep to stay looking good and last as long as possible. Here's what that looks like in practice.

Every year or two, clean your fence with a garden hose or pressure washer to remove dirt and mildew. Apply a fresh coat of stain or sealant to protect the wood from moisture and UV rays. This simple maintenance keeps your fence strong and prevents rot, warping, and fading.

If you notice loose boards or damaged posts, address them quickly. Small repairs prevent bigger problems later. With proper care, a quality wood fence can last 15 to 20 years or more, making it a smart investment for your home.
