Cedar Fence
For those who prefer a natural look, a cedar wood fence would be a great option! Cedar is known for its long-lasting good looks— tight grain, natural knots, and desirable red hue which can add a rustic charm to any outdoor space. The natural strong fragrance cedar provides acts as a natural insect repellent. Additionally, cedar is not as dense as other woods, which makes it a top choice for woodworkers and home projects. Most importantly, cedar is a sustainable resource that is harvested from managed forests.
Advantages?
Beautiful, timeless, natural look
Naturally resists insects
Can alternate stain colors over time
Many design options to choose from
Less likely to shrink, warp, and crack
Renewable and environmentally friendly
100% coated decking screws
Cedar Tone Pressure Treated
Treated lumber is a pine that is often a more cost-effective option as it is treated with chemicals to resist rot, decay, and insect damage. It is also a more durable option than cedar, making it a good choice for areas that experience heavy rainfall or high humidity. Treated lumber is a popular pick for outdoor structures such as gazebos, decks, pergolas, and fences as it is meant to be more sturdy and durable than untreated wood. However, treated lumber is not as environmentally friendly as cedar. The chemicals used to treat the wood can be harmful to the environment and to human health. Additionally, treated lumber has a more uniform appearance and may not have the same natural charm as cedar.

Resists moisture and insects
