Wood Fences

Why Homeowners Choose Wood Fences

Wood fences remain the most popular fencing choice in Rialto for good reasons. They're versatile, affordable, and naturally beautiful. You can paint or stain them any color to match your home's style. They offer complete privacy when you build them tall and tight, or you can space the boards for a more open, decorative look.

Wood is also easy to customize. Want a specific height? No problem. Need a special gate design? We can build it. Unlike pre-fabricated options, wood fencing adapts to slopes, curves, and unique property layouts. Plus, if a section gets damaged years down the road, you can replace just that part without redoing your entire fence. For comprehensive fence installation services, we handle every detail from start to finish.

Wood Types and Fence Styles

We work with several wood types, each with its own benefits. Cedar and redwood naturally resist rot and insects, making them excellent long-term investments. Pressure-treated pine costs less and lasts decades when properly maintained. We'll help you choose the right wood for your budget and needs.

Here are the most popular wood fence styles we install:

• •Privacy fences with tightly spaced vertical boards for maximum seclusion
• •Picket fences with traditional pointed tops for classic curb appeal
• •Board-on-board designs that look great from both sides
• •Horizontal slat fencing for a modern, contemporary look
• •Ranch rail fences perfect for defining boundaries without blocking views
• •Shadowbox style with overlapping boards for ventilation and privacy

Each style serves different purposes. Privacy fences work great for backyards where you want complete seclusion. Picket fences add charm to front yards without creating a fortress feel. We'll walk you through all your options and show you examples so you can visualize the finished product. If you're comparing materials, you might also want to see our vinyl fence options for a different look.

Professional Installation and Care

A wood fence is only as good as its installation. We dig deep post holes and set posts in concrete for maximum stability. We use galvanized or stainless steel hardware that won't rust. Every board is level, every joint is tight, and every gate swings smoothly. We build fences that last 20 to 30 years with proper care.

Maintaining your wood fence is straightforward. Inspect it once or twice a year for loose boards or hardware. Clean it with a garden hose to remove dirt and debris. Restain or repaint every few years to protect the wood from sun and moisture. If you catch small problems early, they're easy and cheap to fix. Need repairs down the road? Our fence repair services handle everything from minor fixes to major overhauls.

In Rialto's climate, wood fences face intense sun and occasional heavy rain. We treat all our wood with quality sealers that block UV rays and moisture. This protection helps your fence maintain its color and strength for years. We also recommend treating your fence annually with a water-repellent sealer to maximize its lifespan.
