Wood Fencing Key Features

There is simply no way to stress enough the importance of strong posts that are properly installed for the strength and life of your wood fence!

When properly installed by our expert fence team, our wood fence posts will stand strong and last for years. Quality matters! Our wood fences are built and expertly installed to look great and to stand the test of time! It all starts with a strong fence post!

All of our wood fence posts, rails, and pickets are expertly chosen and installed, to maximize the life of your wood fence in the South Jersey Shore area.

Did you know that there are different grades and types of wood? Our professional-grade wood rails are what separates us from many of our competitors. Our rails are of a higher grade than other options we see across the South Jersey Shore region. This is an important difference because the horizontal rails fail frequently on lower-quality wood fences. We see it all the time!

People sitting on the top of the fence, climbing the fence, leaning heavy objects against the fence, or branches falling onto the top of the fence can all easily damage a low-quality wood fence rail! Rot, splitting, warping ... these are all much more likely and much more severe with lower-quality wood materials. Our wood fences are built to last, and a key reason our wood fences last so long and look like new is because of the higher quality wood fencing materials we install for our residential and our commercial clients.

All of our wood fence posts, rails, and pickets are expertly chosen and installed to maximize the life of your wood fence in the South Jersey Shore area.

Just like our posts and our rails, we install high-quality wood fence pickets. The thicker, wider, and higher-density wood costs a little more than the cheap wood sold at big box stores. Wood fences across the South Jersey Shore area take a lot of abuse and our high-quality pickets are proven to be more resilient! For wood fences that last and look great, high-quality wood pickets are a must!

All of our wood fence posts, rails, and pickets are expertly chosen and installed to maximize the life of your wood fence in the South Jersey Shore area.

Our crews are experienced and specially trained in the latest techniques for building wood fences - ensuring your fence is installed properly, will look great, function properly, and will hold up to the harsh weather typical of South Jersey Shore.

Pricing on all fencing materials can fluctuate, but generally speaking, the up-front cost of wood fencing is usually lower than some other types of fencing. Keep in mind that wood fencing needs to be maintained by sealing and staining it over time, so its maintenance should be considered in the total cost of your purchase.

Your wood fence should be protected with a high-quality stain and sealer, but the decision is ultimately yours to make. Proper care and maintenance of your wood fence will absolutely extend the life of your fence for many years to come!

The harsh weather conditions in South Jersey Shore can severely impact wood fences that are not properly cared for. Speak to one of our wood fence experts to learn more about the specific steps you can take for your particular situation.

Important!

We encourage you to speak with one of our fence experts before focusing solely on price! There are cheaper, very poor quality wood grades that are commonly used by other fencing contractors in South Jersey Shore to cut costs. These lower quality wood options are not only inferior, but they will absolutely not last! We don't use them.

There are also very inexperienced and unprofessional fence installers who continually cut corners in their labor and installation techniques who don't stand behind their work (regardless of what their so-called-warranty says).

Wood fences must stand up to the physical demands of the South Jersey Shore weather, the sun, wind, changing humidity levels,and physical abuse from falling branches, landscapers, neighbors, animals, and more.

Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to make a decision about the fence you want to protect and beautify your property.

Wood fences typically have no warranty on materials but do have a workmanship warranty.

However, there are certain options you can choose that do come with warranties, even on the materials! Speak with one of our fence experts to learn the specific details of the wood fence options that you are considering.
