Wood Privacy Fence

Board-on-Board Fence

The Board-on-Board style offers 100% privacy and is slightly more than a standard stockade fence, since it requires additional materials and labor.

We install one board, leave approximately a 3½-inch gap, then cover that gap with another board. This overlapping design completely blocks the spaces between the boards.

The result is a true 100% privacy fence. Even if the boards shrink slightly over time, the overlapping construction prevents gaps that would allow visibility through the fence.

Why choose a wood fence?

A wood fence brings a warm, timeless look to any property, blending naturally with both modern and historic homes. With a range of styles, finishes, and stains to choose from, it's easy to match your home's character — from a clean painted finish to a rustic natural grain — while full panels give you true privacy and a solid, secure barrier around your yard.

Beyond the looks, wood is practical: its density helps buffer wind and muffle road noise for a more peaceful yard, and as a renewable material it's an eco-friendly choice. Repairs are simple too — a damaged board or section can usually be swapped out instead of replacing the whole fence. With routine staining and sealing to guard against the elements, a wood fence stays durable and attractive for years, making it a cost-effective option over the long run.
