Built from treated pine & cedar

Wood is still the best value in privacy fencing — warm to look at, strong when it is built right, and easy to stain any color you want down the road. We build with pressure-treated pine and cedar, fastened tight and set straight.

Most customers go with a 6-foot privacy fence, but we build every common style:

  • Standard privacy — solid 6′ pickets, the backyard classic
  • Shadowbox — alternating pickets, looks good from both sides
  • Board-on-board — overlapped pickets, zero gaps as wood dries
  • Horizontal — clean modern lines
  • Picket — front-yard height with traditional charm

How we install it

We walk your property with you, mark the lines, and confirm utilities are located before a single hole is dug. Posts go in deep and plumb, rails get fastened square, and we clean up like we were never there.

You deal with the owner from estimate to final walkthrough — the person who quotes your fence is the person who builds it.

FAQ

Wood & Privacy questions

How much does a wood privacy fence cost in Dayton?+
Wood privacy fencing is usually the middle of the pack — more than chain link, less than vinyl. Price depends on linear footage, height, style, and gates. We quote the exact number free, on site, and the price we quote is the price you pay.
How long will a wood fence last in Ohio?+
A properly built wood fence lasts 15–20 years in Ohio. The keys are posts set deep and straight, quality treated lumber, and a coat of stain or sealer every few years. We build for the freeze-thaw cycles, not just the day of install.
What is the best wood for a privacy fence in Ohio?+
Pressure-treated pine is the workhorse — affordable and rated for ground contact in our climate. Cedar costs more but resists rot and insects naturally and weathers to a clean gray. We install both and will quote each at your estimate.
Do I need a permit to build a privacy fence in Dayton?+
Many Dayton-area cities and townships require a fence permit, and rules differ on height and placement. We handle the local requirements as part of the job, so you are not chasing paperwork at the zoning office.
How tall can a privacy fence be in Dayton, Ohio?+
Six feet is the standard backyard privacy height and what most local codes allow. Front-yard fences are usually capped lower. We confirm your city’s exact limits before building so the fence passes inspection the first time.
Can I put my fence right on the property line?+
In most Dayton-area cities, yes — as long as the line’s location is certain. We walk the line with you at the free estimate, and if the survey pins can’t be found we’ll tell you before a single post goes in.
Can you remove and haul away my old fence?+
Yes — we offer old fence tear-out and haul-away. Just mention it at your estimate and we’ll include it in your quote, then leave the yard clean and ready for the new build.
When should I stain or seal a new wood fence?+
Let pressure-treated lumber dry out for about 4–8 weeks before staining so the wood can actually absorb it. After that, a coat of stain or sealer every 2–3 years is the single best thing you can do to stretch the fence’s life.
How long does wood fence installation take?+
A typical backyard privacy fence takes 2–3 days: one day to set posts in concrete, then framing and pickets after the footings cure. We give you a firm timeline with your free quote.
