Wood Fence Installation

Wood privacy fences, picket fences, and backyard enclosures, installed with posts set deep and plumb. Built to stand up to Ohio frost and wind.

Hardscaping · Northeast Ohio

How we do it

Most fence problems start with the posts. Ours are set in concrete, deep enough to resist frost heave, and each one is checked for plumb and alignment before rails and boards go up. Gates are hung to swing freely and latch properly.

We install privacy fences for backyards, shorter picket fences for front yards and gardens, and gates sized to fit your mower or equipment. Underground utilities are marked before any digging begins.

What's included

  • Layout based on your survey or property pins
  • Utility marking before digging
  • Posts set in concrete
  • Privacy, shadowbox, and picket styles
  • Walk and drive gates with hardware
  • Cleanup of soil from post holes

Common questions

Wood Fence Installation FAQ

How long does a wood fence last?

A well-built pressure-treated or cedar fence typically lasts 15 to 20 years, and longer with periodic staining or sealing.

Do I need a permit for a fence?

Many Northeast Ohio cities require a fence permit and set limits on height and placement. Rules vary by city and HOA, so it's worth checking before the project starts. We're happy to help you figure out what's needed.

Which way should the finished side face?

In most cases the finished side faces out toward neighbors and the street, and many cities require it. Shadowbox styles look finished from both sides, which makes them a good choice along shared property lines.
