Fencing made from cedar will provide many years of trouble-free durability as well as natural beauty. Cedar is a very strong and stable wood. Proven to withstand all weather conditions and is resistant to moisture and rotting. Cedar wood has natural oils and acids which makes it undesirable to many insects.
Used for many purposes including privacy, boundary markers, and also adds beauty to your home and landscape. Lightweight and has very colorful tones which are beautiful on both sides.
Since they last for so many years you don’t need to worry about replacing them very often. They are a perfect alternative for any wood fence.
Horizontal Fencing
Horizontal fencing expands the look of your backyard visually. It emphasizes on how much area your yard has, rather than drawing attention to the height of your fence. It also adds a decorative piece to your outdoor lounging and entertaining areas.
Decorative Gates
Designing a gate which balances the need for privacy with a level of curb appeal. At HB Fence, Decking & Construction, we believe a gate is an important component of any fencing project. Your gate and fence are what give your home the curb appeal you desire. You want your property to look beautiful and for your gate to be the right fit for your home. Adding a gate to your property provides you with a feeling of security by preventing unwanted animals and strangers from entering the front or the back of your yard.
Postmasters
As a homeowner it’s good to know and see what other options you may have when it comes to the foundation and structure of your fencing project. Postmaster posts by far in my opinion are a great option if you are looking for longevity. What is nice about Postmasters compared to a pressure treated 4X4 post is that the post will never rot, crack, twist, warp or have an insect infestation.
Postmasters are a structural steel galvanized post. Design to handle wind resistance up to 70 mph. The posts are designed to give a little and bounce back during a windstorm; unlike a wooden post if weakened can easily crack in half. Postmasters open design prevents the post from collecting moisture and the heavy zinc coating helps prevent premature rusting.
You still have every fence design option as if you were installing a wooden post. You can install a horizontal, good neighbor, standard two or three rail fence and so on. The difference between round chain link posts and postmasters is the postmaster has a flange design that you can butt your 2X4’s against, they also have holes engineered into the design for screwing in your rails. It can be easily concealed from view to maintain the attractiveness of your wooden fence. Postmasters are the only steel fence post designed to be hidden. So, if you are dissatisfied with the galvanized color that is not a problem. What happens is the front of the posts are covered by a row of fence boards. Then along the back section of your fence each steel post is covered up with a single fence board.
Pressure Treated Kicker Board
Weather can take its toll on your wooden fence. Installing a kicker board is an excellent way to protect the bottom of your fence and/or add height to your fence as needed. It also prevents your fence boards from absorbing ground moisture and rotting out. Kicker boards are installed at the base of your fence. They also prevent you from damaging your fence when weed whacking or mowing your landscape.
Lattice Design
The lattice design adds a polished look to your fence. Options for a lattice-topped fence are endless. You can custom design a vertical, horizontal or a traditional sloping pattern. A decorative lattice pattern will also extend the height of your fence. Adding post caps, trellis or other decorative tops will give your fence a unique touch, and your backyard an attractive look.
