WOOD FENCES

The cost of a wood fence can vary depending on several factors, including the type of wood, the height of the fence, the total length, the slope or terrain of your property, and any additional features like gates or custom designs. On average, wood fence installation typically ranges from $20 to $35 per linear foot, but this can be higher or lower based on materials and labor in your area.

A properly installed and well-maintained wood fence typically lasts 15–20 years, depending on the type of wood used, local weather conditions, and upkeep. Pressure-treated wood offers strong resistance to rot and insects, while higher-quality woods can last even longer. Regular maintenance such as sealing, staining, or painting helps extend the life of a wood fence, keeping it strong, functional, and attractive for many years.

Wooden fences are a durable and reliable fencing option when built with quality materials and proper installation. They provide strong privacy and security while withstanding everyday wear and weather conditions. With regular maintenance such as sealing or staining, a wooden fence can resist rot, insects, and moisture, maintaining its strength and appearance for many years. Proper care helps ensure long-term durability and consistent performance over time.

Wood fences do require regular maintenance to keep them in good condition and extend their lifespan. This typically includes staining or sealing every few years to protect the wood from moisture, sun exposure, and pests. Periodic inspections for loose boards, rot, or damage and making timely repairs will help keep the fence strong, attractive, and functional for many years.
