Fence Styles
Choosing the Right Fence for Your Property
Every property is different. Whether you need full backyard privacy, a decorative front-yard border, or a working ranch fence for a larger parcel, we will help you choose the style and height that fits your needs, your property lines, and your neighborhood.
6-Foot Privacy Fence
The most requested fence in Modesto, Manteca, and Turlock. A standard 6-foot privacy fence provides a solid barrier between properties with no gaps between boards. We set posts 8 feet on center for maximum stability in Central Valley wind conditions. Three stain and color options are commonly available to match your home exterior. Most homeowners choose this style for backyard enclosures, side yard gates, and pool areas where privacy is the primary goal.
7-Foot Privacy Fence
For homeowners who want additional height — whether for extra privacy, noise reduction, or wind blocking — a 7-foot privacy fence is our second most popular installation. The same post spacing and material quality applies as our 6-foot fences. Because 7-foot fencing remains under the permit threshold for most cities in Stanislaus County, no inspection is required for typical residential installations. It is the preferred choice for homes along busy streets or shared alleys.
Board-on-Board Fencing
Board-on-board fencing uses alternating pickets that overlap slightly, creating a fence that looks identical from both sides while still providing a small amount of airflow. This style is especially popular along property lines shared with neighbors, since both sides present a clean, finished appearance. The overlapping design adds structural strength that holds up well against high-wind events common throughout the Central Valley, making it one of the most durable privacy fence configurations we install.
Picket & Ranch Rail Fencing
Picket fences are ideal for front yards, gardens, and decorative borders where visibility is desired. We install classic straight-top and dog-ear styles in redwood or cedar for a clean, traditional look. Ranch rail fencing — typically two or three horizontal rails with no pickets — suits larger residential properties, acreage, and rural lots throughout Stanislaus County. Both styles are installed with the same premium materials and post-setting standards as our full privacy fence installations.
Why Redwood and Cedar Outperform Other Materials in Central Valley
Pressure-treated pine and vinyl fencing are widely available and often cheaper upfront, but both fall short in Central Valley conditions. Pine treated with chemicals can warp and check in extreme summer heat, and the treatment does not prevent the wood from absorbing and releasing moisture — which leads to post heaving and picket cupping over time. Vinyl looks good initially but becomes brittle under prolonged UV exposure and can crack during the temperature swings between our hot summers and cooler winters.
Redwood and cedar are naturally rot-resistant and contain tannins that repel insects without chemical treatment. These species stay dimensionally stable in dry heat, meaning they expand and contract less than pine, which reduces warping and board separation over the life of the fence. For Central Valley homeowners who want a fence that holds its shape and appearance for a decade or more, premium redwood and cedar sourced from Denair Lumber is the clear choice — and the reason we have built our reputation on it since 2001.
Every fence we install uses posts set in concrete with proper depth for our soil conditions. Rails are attached with corrosion-resistant hardware that will not rust or stain the wood over time. When the project is complete, we do a full walkthrough with you to inspect every section, gate, and post before we collect payment. No deposit is ever required — you pay only when the work meets your expectations and you are fully satisfied with the finished fence.
