We can build your new fence using our Pro Series prefab panels or by the custom built-on-site method.
The main advantages of prefab panels are:
Most economical (costs 20-30% less)
Reduced installation time (less disruption)
Panels can be easily removed & replaced in future
The main advantages of custom built are:
More styles/sizes (you dream it, we build it)
Evenly spaced posts (no end-of-the-line small panel)
Choice of stepped or raked style on slopes
Fencing Contractor Richmond
We're very particular about the quality of materials we use. To ensure the best appearance and longest life we use Western Red Cedar fence boards, pressure-treated kickboards and posts as well as industry approved fasteners. Our jumbo-sized posts (4 1/8" x 4 1/8" actual thickness) are about 30% thicker than a standard retail size 4x4. We use only seasoned gate posts to reduce the chances of warping. A pressure-treated 2x6 kickboard is used on our solid fences to minimize sagging (rather than an untreated 2x4 or 1x4 commonly used on cheaper retail panels). Standard top rails are always 2x4's (not 2x3's or 1x4's used in retail grade panels). Our 1x6 fence boards are 7/8"- 1" thick (compared to 5/8" common size). Our panel frames are screwed together for durability (not nailed, as retail type).
Using approved fasteners is critical to the life of your fence. Cedar and pressure-treated wood will cause substandard fasteners to fail prematurely. We use only approved fasteners in the correct sizes and quantities. This includes ACQ/cedar rated screws, hot-dipped galvanized ring shank nails and stainless steel staples. Gate hardware is zinc plated with a black powder-coated finish.
Cedar fence building is a craft we take very seriously. We exercise great care to make sure all lumber cuts/joints are as tight as possible, fence lines are straight, gates are built & hung correctly and the worksite is left neat and tidy. We also use only electric power tools, mostly battery powered which are quieter than gas-powered equipment. Fence posts are set in concrete at an average depth of 2" in soil or bolted in heavy duty steel saddles anchored on concrete.
Sustainable Cedar
Did you know that cedar, as well as being naturally beautiful and rot-resistant, is certified sustainable? Unlike steel, aluminum, vinyl and other materials made from non-renewable sources, more cedar is planted than harvested each year. And it’s sourced & processed here in Canada, contributing the most to our economy!
