FENCE AND RAILING
Fencing, what is it, do I need one and, what kind should I get?
First let me start off by quoting a definition “A fence is a freestanding structure designed to restrict or prevent movement across a boundary. It is generally distinguished from a wall by the lightness of its construction.” Most fences have a few things in common. Vertical posts are inserted in to the ground and secured every 6 to 8 feet and then horizontal fencing material is attached to the posts creating a solid structure.

Wood fences
an excellent choice for privacy fencing, whether it be in terms of noise barriers or, more commonly, visual barriers. Wood fences (along with their vinyl copy-cats) provide some of the most attractive fencing options available when your chief concern is creating a backyard sanctuary. The stockade style offers an example of a wood fence design that can afford a solid visual barrier between your yard and your neighbor's, resulting in almost total privacy. And another very popular style of wood fence is the board on board shadow box which provides privacy with some airiness to it. The main benefits of wood fencing are its beauty, privacy and longevity. Modern technology has made pressure-treated pine, a good choice for residential, commercial and agricultural applications. With proper installation (very important!) and treatment procedures, these fences will last for many years.
