When you want to make your yard less visible to your neighbors or you simply want to create your own intimate outdoor space, installing a residential privacy fence is a great solution.
The height of your fence and the distance between the pickets will create the level of privacy you desire. Take a look at our blog on privacy fence height, here.
Tell us about your project, and one of our knowledgeable team members will reach out to walk you through your options, answer your questions, and put together a detailed estimate at no cost to you.
Want to create total privacy? Choose a fence style where the pickets interlock or are right next to each other.
Still want some visibility? Choose a style that has some space between the pickets for semi-privacy.
You can also add a decorative touch through the style of pickets you choose. Not only will this add character to your fence, but it will help enhance the overall look of your yard.

Armando & his crew were fantastic. They were very detail oriented & worked with us on an area with slightly tricky landscaping on one side. They were prompt, courteous, and very efficient. They checked with us before they finalized everything, ensuring the gate opened in the correct direction, etc. Everything was cleaned up nicely and we really appreciate their hard work.
