Wood Fencing - Frequently Asked Questions
What wood species do you use for privacy fences?
We primarily use Western Red Cedar for pickets due to its natural rot resistance and dimensional stability, paired with pressure-treated pine for structural posts and rails. This combination delivers the best balance of longevity, appearance, and value for The Woodlands climate.
How deep do you set wood fence posts in The Woodlands clay soil?
We set every post 24"-36" deep in concrete - well below the active clay zone that causes heaving in Southeast Texas. This depth specification is critical in The Woodlands, where expansive clay soil can push shallow posts out of alignment within a single season.
Do you stain or seal the wood fence after installation?
Yes, we offer professional staining and sealing services. We recommend staining within 30–60 days of installation to protect the cedar from UV damage and moisture. Semi-transparent stains showcase the natural wood grain, while solid stains provide maximum UV protection.
What fence styles are available?
We build board-on-board (full privacy), shadowbox (semi-private with airflow), and side-by-side privacy fences. Each style can be customized with post caps, trim boards, arched or scalloped tops, and custom gate entries with arbors.
