Board-on-board wood privacy fence in Metro Atlanta
★★★★★ 5.0 on Google15-20+ yrs built right

Wood is still the most-built fence in Metro Atlanta, for good reason.

It looks right on almost every property, it delivers full privacy at the best price per foot, and HOAs approve it without a fight. The catch is that wood fences live or die on how they’re built. Ours are built on ground-contact-rated posts, set deep in concrete, with fasteners that don’t streak and rails that don’t sag.

The honest pros & cons

No fence is perfect for every job. Here’s the straight talk we’d give you at the estimate.

Pros

  • Lowest cost for full privacy
  • Looks natural on every lot
  • Easy to repair section-by-section
  • Stain or paint it any color
  • HOA-friendly

Cons

  • Wants maintenance (stain/seal every few years)
  • Wood moves with weather
  • Shorter lifespan than vinyl or metal if neglected

Built right and maintained, a wood fence in Atlanta gives you 15-20+ years. Built wrong, it leans by year five, that’s the fence we’re usually replacing.

What drives the price

Linear footage, fence height (6’ vs 8’), style (board-on-board costs more than stockade), gates, tear-out of an old fence, and slope. Exact numbers at your free on-site estimate.

FAQs

Pressure-treated pine or cedar?
Pressure-treated pine is the Atlanta value play, durable and budget-right. Cedar costs more and brings natural rot resistance and a richer look. We build both; we'll price both.
When can I stain a new wood fence?
New pressure-treated wood needs to dry out first, typically a few weeks to a few months depending on weather. We'll tell you when yours is ready and what to use.
Will it be solid the day you finish?
Yes, but stay off the gates for the first day while the concrete around posts cures to full strength.
