Cedar is a popular choice among Florida homeowners. Although a softwood, cedar is durable and naturally resistant to rot, mold, and insects. Its reddish, amber-like tone is warm and welcoming—perfect for homeowners that value timeless elegance!
If you have a strict budget for your fencing project, you may want to consider pine wood. Pine is a cost-effective and aesthetically pleasing option for residential fences. Its mellow, light cream and yellow color makes it inoffensive. This neutral shade easily blends in with most natural surroundings, leaving your outdoor views unobstructed. Additionally, this wood’s light hue makes customization a simple and straightforward process. Most wood stains will take to this material, leaving you with deep, vivid colors that will last for years to come.
At Gainesville Fencing Company, LLC, our team can install pressure-treated pine on your property. This process improves the pine’s strength, durability, and structural integrity, enhancing its lifespan and preserving its appearance in the face of Florida's subtropical climate.
Unlike the aforementioned wooden fence materials, white oak is a hardwood. This means that oak fences are extremely durable, allowing them to withstand scratches, scuffing, and dents. Oak’s dense structure is also exceedingly difficult to warp, making it ideal for farms, estates, or households with many pets.
The natural oils present on cypress help fend off rot and decay. Native to Florida, cypress is acclimated to the Sunshine State’s high humidity, frequent hurricanes, and prolonged rainy seasons. While cypress wood tends to be pricier than pine or cedar, it provides properties with top-notch protection against mold, mildew, and pests.
A professional fence installation company can ensure that your new wooden fence blends natural beauty with endurance. Not only will its decorative style, design, and color add character to your yard, but a professionally installed wooden fence will also provide improved privacy and security for your home.
Before construction can begin, the site must be prepared. Any rocks, debris, or vegetation will need to be removed from the area. In the event that the terrain is uneven, our fence technicians might need to level the site before groundwork can commence.
When the area is completely cleared, our fence technicians will mark the fence line. This outline represents where the fence boundary will start and end. Next, our contractors will dig post holes, insert the wooden posts, and set them in concrete to prevent unwanted shifting.
Then, using custom wooden fence planks, our technicians will securely attach the fence rails, pickets, and panels. Built and cut to your exact specifications, our technicians will handle the process of ordering these wooden fence materials, measuring the boards, and weather-treating them. Once installed, galvanized nails may be used to hold these rails and panels in place.
Finally, finishing touches and details are made. Post caps, gates, or other decorative elements may be added to enhance the appearance of your new wooden fence. With that, your fence installation is complete!
Annual fence maintenance can prolong the lifespan of your beautiful wooden fence. During these routine fence inspections, our technicians will check for signs of rot and deterioration, tighten loose hardware, and restain the fencing material. If there is mold or mildew build-up, or the fence appears exceptionally dirty, a pressure washer may be used to quickly remove dirt and grime. The result is a shiny, sparkling wooden fence that you and your family are sure to fall in love with! Contact Gainesville Fencing Company, LLC, today for more information.
