There's Still Nothing Like a Wood Fence
Wood fencing has been the classic American fence for over a century, and there's a reason it still leads in curb appeal. Real wood has a warmth, depth, and character that vinyl and aluminum can't replicate. It ages, weathers, and tells a story — and when it's installed correctly, it looks great for decades.
Fred's Fence installs cedar, pressure-treated pine, and custom wood designs across Monmouth and Middlesex Counties. Every wood installation we do gets the same craftsmanship attention — proper post setting, level lines, tight joints, and clean cuts. We back the labor with a 5-year warranty so you know we stand behind every install.
Wood Fence Styles We Install
Wood is the most versatile fence material — it can do tall and private, short and decorative, or anything in between. Here are the wood fence styles we install most often:
Cedar Stockade
Solid 6-foot cedar panels for maximum privacy. Natural cedar weathers beautifully to a silver-gray over time, or can be sealed to keep its warm tone.
Cedar Shadow Box
Alternating boards on each side of the fence create a semi-private look that's beautiful from both sides. A favorite for properties where neighbors share the fence.
Pressure-Treated Privacy
Solid privacy fencing in pressure-treated pine. The most cost-effective wood option, with excellent rot resistance.
Wood Picket
Classic American curb appeal. Cedar or pressure-treated, with traditional or scalloped tops, painted white or left natural.
Board-on-Board
Overlapping vertical boards create a fully private fence with a refined look. Common for upscale residential properties.
Custom Wood Designs
Pergolas, decorative tops, mixed materials, and one-of-a-kind designs. If you've seen it on Pinterest, we can probably build it.
Why Homeowners Choose Wood Fencing
Timeless Curb Appeal
Wood adds warmth and character that vinyl and aluminum simply can't replicate. Best curb appeal of any fence material.
Customizable
Stain it, paint it, leave it natural — wood is the most customizable fence material. Change the look anytime by refinishing.
Cost-Effective
Pressure-treated wood is the most affordable per-linear-foot fencing material. Cedar costs more but offers exceptional longevity.
