Start with how you use the yard

A wood fence that fits your everyday life.

The board layout changes more than the appearance. Consider privacy from different angles, the view from both sides, and access for people and equipment.

Backyard privacy

Screen a patio or shared boundary with closely spaced or overlapping boards.

Open boundaries

Frame landscaping with pickets, wire infill, or a post-and-rail design.

Personal details

Compare top profiles, trim, post caps, and matching gate designs.

A clear care plan

Plan for wood movement, weathering, cleaning, and the selected finish.

Choose the details together

Wood, height, spacing, caps & gates.

The style name does not specify the whole fence. Review these choices with your written estimate.

Wood: ask which species and grades are available, whether components are treated, and what care they need. Confirm posts, rails, and boards separately.
Height and spacing: choose dimensions around privacy, sightlines, slope, and applicable property requirements.
Top and trim: compare picket profiles, cap-and-trim details, post caps, and the appearance from each side.
Gates: plan opening widths, swing clearance, latches, and access for mowers or larger equipment.

For a pool or pet enclosure, review the complete barrier and gate design. A fence style alone does not establish suitability.

Understand the complete scope

What affects wood fence installation cost?

Ask for a quote based on your fence line and selected design. Compare the same scope rather than a panel price or a generic price per foot.

Details to compare in a wood fence estimate
Project detail	What to clarify
Fence design	Length, height, wood specification, board spacing, trim, and caps.
Gates	Number of openings, widths, frames, hardware, and operating space.
Site conditions	Removal, slopes, roots, drainage, installation access, and ground conditions.
Included work	Disposal, preparation, cleanup, and whether finishing is included or separate.

Georgia red clay, shifting soil, and changes in grade need a site-specific plan. Confirm boundaries, easements, HOA guidelines, utility coordination, and responsibility for any approvals before work begins.

Natural wood needs ongoing care

Plan for weathering and maintenance.

Wood changes with moisture and exposure. Boards may shrink or swell, and color can fade or weather over time. The selected wood, finish, site, and maintenance all affect how the fence ages.

Inspect boards, posts, fasteners, and gate operation periodically. Keep vegetation and debris from collecting against the fence, and ask about cleaning and repair methods suited to the material.

Before staining or sealing, follow the coating manufacturer’s preparation, moisture, and weather requirements. Do not rely on a fixed number of weeks after installation.

Read manufacturer guidance on fence staining →

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  I hired Precision Fencework to repair my fence and install a gate. The workers did fantastic job and left the place clean once they were done. Minus 1 star because it took several months for them to come out and do the job, but I understand they're reputable and very busy.  Their pricing is fair, but their warranty is longer than everyone else. I'd recommend them if you're not in a rush

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Custom ordered what is apparently the nicest fence offered to block road noise because Oconee county unnecessarily removed our previous fence and berm when widening the road. The noise and frequencies were absolute torture for my wife and myself. Carson Bell came out and was phenomenal!! We designed it together and he was not only beyond knowledgeable, he was simply a "good fella." Took a couple on months for the custom fence to be made, but he was in touch the entire time. When the crew came out to install everything, I couldn't believe how amazing Juan, Nelson, and Hector were. I'm a "country boy" that went to school for a decade. Have built more fence than I would like to remember. Those guys were machines!! Still impressed. Lastly, our home is beyond peaceful and never thought a fence could help so incredibly much. Wife and I can't stop sleeping lol. Thank you Precision. Game changing!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  I couldn’t be happier with my privacy fence! Mamo and a crew of three men showed up on time and completed my fence in one day. (Originally, it was guesstimated to take a day and a half.) The team was professional, friendly and answered any questions I had. My sales rep, Carson, was also very helpful and responsive throughout the entire process. Several neighbors have complimented my fence, and I’ve given the contact info to a few of my friends, as well.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  We contracted with Precision to install a 6 foot tall black aluminum fence to deter deer which are rampant in our neighborhood.  Our salesperson Frank was very prompt in his response to our inquiry, and thoroughly explained different fencing options during our on-site consultation.  Estimates were quick to follow, and the few questions I had were quickly answered.  Estimates were competitive with those from other companies that I received.

Installation began within the time window I had been given and was completed quickly and efficiently.  The crew leader was great about walking the site with me and working out an exact layout for the fence runs which were not the usual standard straight paths along property lines.  I’m very happy with the final result and would certainly recommend this contractor to anyone contemplating a new fence installation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Frank was wonderful and helping me decide what type of fence to put up. I went with the Ashland and added a facia board on the outside at the bottom of the fence. They completed the work in a day and a half. The fence looks fantastic! Their price was lower than most everyone's. The gate works perfect! I would recommend this company for your fence needs!

I had an Excellent experience with Precision Fenceworks, who installed aluminum fence for our back yard. We picked the quad flare finials fence, ball-caps posts, and 2 arched gates.  Mr Frank Guest is knowledgeable, quick to reply, and worked hard to install our fence in a timely manner. The fence itself is good material, nice design. We are very please with the results and so glad we chose Precision Fenceworks.

Following a tornado strike, we were fortunate that our only damage was the fence around our pool.  While not catastrophic, the damage was severe enough to require professional repair.  We found Precision Fenceworks and have been extremely satisfied with their performance and professionalism.  Drew, Charles and their team performed quickly, competently and at a reasonable price.  We highly recommend this business.

Answers before you build

Wood fencing FAQs

Which wood fence style offers more privacy?

Closely spaced vertical boards and overlapping board-on-board designs provide more screening than open pickets or wire infill. Shadowbox and spaced horizontal designs can allow views through at an angle. Compare the actual layout from both sides and account for gaps that can develop as wood dries.

How much does a wood fence cost?

Cost depends on the fence length, height, wood specification, board layout, gates, trim, removal, access, and site conditions. Request a written estimate that identifies the selected materials and included work. Confirm whether staining or sealing is included or separate.

How long will my wood fence last?

There is no single lifespan that applies to every wood fence. The wood and treatment, installation details, soil and drainage, weather exposure, maintenance, and gate use all matter. Ask about the proposed materials, care requirements, and written coverage for your project.

When should I stain or seal a new wood fence?

Use the coating manufacturer’s requirements for wood preparation, moisture, temperature, and weather. New wood may need time to dry, but the right timing is not a fixed number of weeks. Confirm the selected product and check the wood before applying it.

Can you install wood fencing on a sloped yard?

A sloped yard needs a site-specific layout. Discuss whether the fence will follow the grade or step, what gaps may remain below it, and how gates will operate. Review drainage, boundaries, and the intended use before finalizing the design.

Where do you install and repair wood fences?
