Wood Fences

Why Choose a Wood Fence

Wood fences have been a favorite for homeowners for generations. They look great, feel natural, and offer privacy and security without breaking the bank. Whether you want a classic picket fence for your front yard or a tall privacy fence for your backyard, wood gives you flexibility in style and design.

Here in Yuma, wood fences work well if you maintain them properly. The desert climate can be tough on wood, but with the right treatment and occasional care, your fence can last 15 to 20 years or more. We use pressure-treated lumber that stands up to heat, insects, and moisture. Plus, wood is easy to customize. You can stain it, paint it, or leave it natural.

Wood fences are also eco-friendly. Unlike vinyl or metal, wood is a renewable resource. When your fence eventually reaches the end of its life, the wood can be recycled or composted. That makes it a smart choice if you care about the environment.

Wood Fence Styles We Build

We build all kinds of wood fences. Here are some of the most popular styles:

• Privacy fences: Tall, solid boards with no gaps for complete privacy and security.
• Picket fences: Classic white picket or natural wood for a charming, welcoming look.
• Horizontal fences: Modern slat-style fencing with boards running side to side.
• Split rail fences: Rustic, open fencing perfect for marking boundaries without blocking views.
• Lattice top fences: Privacy fence with decorative lattice panels on top for style and airflow.
• Shadowbox fences: Boards on both sides of the fence for a finished look from every angle.

We can also customize your fence with caps, trim, and special finishes. If you have a design in mind, we will make it happen. Check out our other services like professional fence installation to learn more about how we work.

Caring for Your Wood Fence

Wood fences need a little bit of care to stay looking their best. Every few years, you should apply a fresh coat of stain or sealant to protect the wood from sun and moisture. This keeps the color vibrant and prevents cracking, warping, and rot. We can help with maintenance, or you can do it yourself with the right products.

Keep an eye out for signs of damage like loose boards, leaning posts, or insect activity. Catching problems early makes repairs easier and cheaper. If you do notice issues, give us a call. We offer fast and affordable fence repair services to keep your fence strong and safe.

Regular cleaning also helps. A quick spray with a garden hose once or twice a year removes dirt and debris. For stubborn stains, use a gentle cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid pressure washers, which can damage the wood fibers.
