Materials

Wood Fencing in Modesto — Redwood & Cedar

We build with premium redwood and cedar selected for Central Valley conditions. Both species offer natural durability, and our crew can walk you through the options during your estimate.

Redwood Fencing in Modesto

Redwood is a premium choice for homeowners looking for long-lasting fencing. It contains natural tannins that resist rot and insects without chemical treatment and holds stain and finish well. We source redwood through Denair Lumber.

  • Naturally rot- and insect-resistant
  • Dimensionally stable in hot conditions
  • Premium heartwood grade from Denair Lumber
  • Holds stain and finish well

Cedar Fencing in Modesto

Cedar is a popular wood for Central Valley fences. Like redwood, cedar contains natural oils that help resist moisture and insects. It is lightweight and takes stain well.

  • Natural oils help resist rot and insects
  • Lightweight with good stability
  • An affordable alternative to redwood
  • Takes stain and finish well
