Wood Fences
Natural beauty meets lasting durability. Wood fences never go out of style.
Why Choose a Wood Fence
Wood fences have been the go-to choice for homeowners in Richmond, CA for decades, and for good reason. They offer a warm, natural look that complements any home style. Wood is versatile, affordable, and easy to customize. You can stain it, paint it, or leave it natural. You can build it tall for privacy or shorter for decoration. Whatever your vision, wood makes it possible.
Wood fences provide complete privacy, block noise, and create a safe space for kids and pets. They also add value to your property and improve curb appeal. When properly maintained, a wood fence can last 15 to 20 years or more. We use quality lumber and proven installation techniques to make sure your wood fence stands strong and looks great for years to come.
Types of Wood We Use
Not all wood is the same. Different types offer different benefits. We work with the best lumber for fencing:
- •Cedar: Naturally resistant to rot and insects. Lightweight, beautiful grain, and smells great. A popular choice for long-lasting fences.
- •Redwood: Premium wood with natural oils that resist decay. Rich color and elegant appearance. Costs more but offers exceptional durability.
- •Pine: Budget-friendly option that works well when treated. Needs regular maintenance but offers great value.
- •Pressure-treated lumber: Chemically treated to resist rot and insects. Affordable and widely available. A solid choice for posts and rails.
We help you choose the right wood based on your budget and preferences. Cedar and redwood cost more upfront but require less maintenance. Pine and pressure-treated lumber are more affordable and work great when properly cared for. Whatever you choose, we install it with care and precision.

Popular Wood Fence Styles
Privacy Fences
Privacy fences use solid panels with no gaps between boards. They block views, reduce noise, and create a secluded outdoor space. Heights typically range from 6 to 8 feet. Perfect for backyards, patios, and pools. We build them strong and level so they stand tall and straight.
Picket Fences
Picket fences are shorter and have gaps between vertical boards. They add charm and define boundaries without blocking views. Great for front yards and gardens. You can paint them white for a classic look or stain them to match your home. Picket fences bring a friendly, welcoming feel to any property.
Horizontal Slat Fences
Horizontal slat fences offer a modern, contemporary look. Boards run sideways instead of up and down. They provide privacy while adding a sleek, stylish touch. This design works well with modern homes and creates a unique visual appeal. We install them with precision to ensure clean lines and a professional finish.
