Cedar and Treated Pine Fencing
We install both cedar and treated pine wood fences.
Cedar is often chosen for its natural appearance and works well for privacy fences, picket fences, cap-and-trim styles, board-on-board designs, and custom gates.
Treated pine is a practical option for homeowners who want a traditional wood fence at a lower initial material cost. It works well for backyard enclosures, dog fencing, longer fence runs, rental properties, and larger yards.
Both materials require proper post setting, spacing, gate support, and installation to perform well over
Wood Privacy Fence Options
Wood fencing is a popular choice for Festus homeowners who want more privacy, safer yard space for children or dogs, or a more defined property boundary.
Common options include:
Standard privacy fencing
Board-on-board fencing
New England cap-and-trim fencing
Lattice-top fencing
Picket fences
Custom gates
Patio and equipment enclosures
The right style depends on the desired appearance, budget, maintenance expectations, and any HOA or subdivision requirements.
Wood Fencing for Sloped Yards
Some Festus properties include rolling terrain, drainage areas, or changes in elevation. Wood fencing can be stepped or adjusted to follow many slopes, but the layout must be planned carefully.
Proper planning helps prevent large ground gaps, uneven sections, dragging gates, and areas where pets may escape.
We review the terrain before installation and determine the best layout for the fence style and property.
Wood Fence and Gate Repair
A damaged wood fence does not always need to be replaced completely. We can evaluate and repair problems such as:
Rotted or broken posts
Leaning fence sections
Damaged rails
Missing or broken pickets
Loose boards
Sagging gates
Broken hinges or latches
Storm or wind damage
Damage from branches, vehicles, or equipment
Repair may make sense when the damage is limited and most of the fence remains stable. Replacement may provide better value when multiple posts and sections are deteriorated.
We explain both options honestly when either repair or replacement could be practical.
Property Lines, Permits, and HOA Rules
Fence placement should be confirmed before installation begins. Property owners may need to consider property lines, easements, underground utilities, drainage, pool requirements, HOA restrictions, and local zoning rules.
A Festus mailing address does not always mean the property is located within Festus city limits. Some properties may fall under another municipality or unincorporated Jefferson County, where requirements may differ.
Utility locating does not establish private property boundaries. A survey may be necessary when the fence line is uncertain.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is cedar or treated pine better?
Cedar offers a more natural finished appearance. Treated pine usually has a lower initial material cost. The better option depends on the project size, budget, appearance, and maintenance expectations.
Can you repair only part of a wood fence?
Yes. Posts, rails, pickets, and gates can often be repaired individually when the surrounding fence remains stable.
Can wood fencing be installed on a slope?
Yes. Wood fencing can be stepped or adjusted to follow many changes in grade.
Do you build custom gates?
Yes. We install walk gates, wider mower gates, double gates, and replacement gates.
Do you remove old fencing?
Removal and disposal can be included in the written proposal.
Does every Festus property follow the same fence rules?
No. Requirements may vary based on the property’s municipality, county jurisdiction, HOA, or subdivision.
