Wood Fences
Beautiful, natural wood fencing that adds warmth and character to your Evans, GA property.
Why Choose Wood Fencing
Wood fencing remains one of the most popular choices for homeowners in Evans, GA. Wood offers a timeless, natural look that complements any home style. From traditional to modern, wood fences adapt to your vision while providing privacy, security, and curb appeal.
The natural beauty of wood cannot be matched by synthetic materials. Each board has unique grain patterns and character. Wood fences blend beautifully with landscaping and create a warm, inviting feel around your property. You can stain or paint wood any color you want, giving you complete control over your fence's appearance.
Wood is also versatile in design. We build everything from classic picket fences to tall privacy fences. Board-on-board styles, horizontal slat fences, and decorative post caps allow you to customize your fence to match your personal style. At EV Evans Fencing, we help you design the perfect wood fence for your needs and budget.
Another advantage of wood is affordability. Quality wood fencing costs less than many other materials while still delivering excellent performance. With proper treatment and maintenance, wood fences last 15 to 20 years or more. That makes wood an outstanding value for your investment.
Wood Fence Styles and Options
We offer several wood fence styles to match your property and preferences. Here are the most popular options we install.
Privacy Fences
Privacy fences stand 6 to 8 feet tall with boards placed tightly together. These fences block the view into your yard and reduce noise from neighbors or nearby roads. Privacy fences are perfect for backyards where you want to create a secluded outdoor living space. We build privacy fences with board-on-board construction for extra strength and a finished look on both sides.
Picket Fences
Traditional picket fences add charm and define property lines without blocking views completely. Pickets typically stand 3 to 4 feet tall with space between boards. These fences work well for front yards and gardens. We offer various picket styles including flat top, pointed, and rounded designs. Picket fences are excellent for homes with classic or cottage-style architecture.
Horizontal Slat Fences
Modern horizontal slat fences have become very popular in recent years. Boards run horizontally instead of vertically, creating a contemporary look. You can choose spacing between boards for different levels of privacy. Horizontal fences look especially striking with stained or painted finishes. This style works perfectly with modern and mid-century home designs.
Split Rail Fences
Split rail fences offer a rustic, open design perfect for larger properties and rural settings. These fences define boundaries without creating visual barriers. Split rail fences require less material than other styles, making them budget-friendly for longer fence lines. We can add wire mesh backing if you need to contain pets while maintaining the rustic look.
Wood Types and Treatment for Evans Weather
Not all wood is created equal when it comes to outdoor fencing. Evans has hot, humid summers that can damage untreated wood. We use pressure-treated lumber that resists rot, decay, and insect damage. Here is what you need to know about wood types.
- Pressure-treated pine is the most popular and affordable option
- Treatment penetrates deep into the wood to protect against moisture
- Cedar naturally resists rot and insects without chemical treatment
- Cedar has a pleasant aroma and beautiful natural color
- Redwood offers excellent durability and rich, warm tones
- All wood benefits from stain or sealant for maximum longevity
- We seal all cut ends to prevent moisture entry at vulnerable points
We recommend staining or sealing your wood fence within the first year of installation. A good quality exterior stain protects wood from UV damage and moisture. Reapplying stain every 2 to 3 years keeps your fence looking great and extends its lifespan. We can provide staining services or recommend products for DIY maintenance.
If you are considering other materials, you might want to compare vinyl fences which require less maintenance. However, many homeowners prefer the natural look and feel of real wood. The choice depends on your priorities for appearance, maintenance, and budget. We help you weigh all factors to make the best decision.
