Choose a privacy fence design

Board-on-board cedar fencing

Overlapping pickets create a layered appearance and help screen the yard from view. We can discuss the fence height, post selection, cap and trim, and gate layout that suit your project. This is an option for homeowners who want a substantial privacy fence with a finished look.

Horizontal cedar fencing

Horizontal pickets give the fence a different visual rhythm from a traditional vertical design. Our work includes horizontal board-on-board and side-by-side layouts. Bring a reference photo or tell us what you like, and we can discuss the construction and finish options.

Side-by-side and stair-step designs

Side-by-side pickets offer a straightforward wood fence appearance. Where the ground changes elevation, a stair-step layout can follow the site in planned sections. We review the slope, transitions and gate locations as part of the design.

A Timberwood Park privacy fence project

For a family in Timberwood Park, we built approximately 350 linear feet of 8-foot horizontal board-on-board fencing with cedar pickets and cedar 2-by-4 framing. The project included galvanized 3-by-3 steel posts, top cap and trim, and two pedestrian gates.

The fence stepped across the limestone terrain to create privacy for the family and their dogs. It is an example of how material choices, elevation changes and everyday gate access come together in a custom installation. Your property’s layout and applicable requirements will guide its own design.

Details that make the fence yours

  • Posts and framing: Discuss wood and steel-post options and the needs of your site.
  • Cap and trim: Add finishing details that complement the fence style.
  • Pedestrian gates: Plan openings around yard access, equipment and daily use.
  • Height and transitions: Match the design to privacy goals, terrain and applicable requirements.
  • Finish: Ask about pre-stained material, staining and painting options for your project.

Need vehicle access as well? We also build automatic driveway gates. See our fencing overview for other fence types and repair services.

Planning your fence estimate

Send photos of the existing fence or proposed fence line, your city, the approximate length and your preferred style. Include the number of gates you need and tell us whether an old fence must be removed.

We will review your information and follow up about the next steps. Site measurements, access, terrain, materials and the final design affect the scope and price. A photo estimate is a starting point; some details need an on-site visit.

Cedar fence questions

Can you build an 8-foot privacy fence?

Our completed projects include 8-foot privacy fences. Whether that height is appropriate for your property depends on the site and applicable requirements. Let us know about any HOA guidelines or other project restrictions when requesting your estimate.

Do you offer horizontal board-on-board fencing?

Yes. Our Timberwood Park project is one example. We can discuss horizontal and vertical layouts, finishing details and pedestrian gates for your yard.

Can you replace an existing fence?

Yes. Send photos of the existing fence and tell us which sections need replacement. We can discuss removal and the new installation as part of the project scope.

How much does a cedar privacy fence cost?

Price depends on length, height, picket layout, posts, finish, gates, removal and site conditions. We quote the actual project rather than relying on a single price for every yard.
