This wood fence in Powhatan had two jobs: give the homeowners more privacy and make the yard look better. We built it from pressure-treated lumber in a framed style, with spaced pickets set between rails and a flat cap board running along the top.
Every part of the build was custom, from the layout to the last section. We shaped the sections to suit the architecture of the home as well as its landscape, so the fence blends in with the wooded edge of the lot instead of standing out. See more of the fences we build in Powhatan.
Wood Fence in Powhatan Project Highlights
Framed Sections Made to Fit
Each section has a framed look. The pickets sit inside a border of rails and trim, and a cap board ties the top together, which adds strength as well as a finished look. Because we tailor-made every section for its own spot, the fence follows the property instead of forcing a stock layout onto it. Our wood fence design and build process lets us plan details like this for each yard.
A Double Gate With Heavy Black Hardware
A wide double gate in the framed wood fence opens into the backyard. Each gate leaf carries a diagonal brace that helps keep it from sagging, and the leaves hang on heavy black strap hinges. A black gravity latch holds the gate closed, and a black pull handle makes it easy to open.
Pressure-Treated Lumber That Holds Up
Pressure treatment helps the lumber resist weather, decay and pests. As a result, this framed wood fence keeps its strength and appearance over time with less upkeep. That matters most at the posts, since they sit in the ground where rot usually starts. The American Wood Protection Association calls for lumber treated to Use Category 4A or higher for ground contact. Our post on why pressure-treated wood matters explains the process in more detail.
From Ground Assessment to Final Touches
Our crew started with an assessment of the ground, then worked carefully through every step of the install. Along one side, this Powhatan wood fence runs beside a mulched strip, and the back corners meet the edge of the woods. We kept the pace efficient while paying close attention to details like these, right through the final touches.
