Winterizing Your Deck and Fence
Wood Fences
Wood is the most popular fencing material used in America. Wood Fences are traditional and add a classic look to your landscape design. Their natural look complements flowers and foliage well. They are versatile with their styling and can be painted or stained any color. Yearly maintenance is required in order to keep the wood fence in good shape. The two main types of wood used for fences in the Kansas City area are pressure treated pine and cedar (the fence in the picture above is made out of grade #1 cedar). If properly treated, a wood fence will last for many years and add value to your property.
