Placeholder ImageWhy Is Cedar Fencing The Best Fencing Option? Cedar fencing is one of the best wood fencing options you can find.

There are many styles of wooden fencing available that it can be tough deciding which is best for you. There are spruce, bamboo, and fir options, and so many more. All of these could work perfectly to secure a border around your home. But there’s one wooden fence style that may stand out above the rest. Cedar fencing is one of the best wood fencing options you can find.

What Makes It So Great?

Western red cedar is upper-quality wood. It usually costs a little more, but the price you pay is well worth it. Don’t let anyone tell you that a lower-quality fence can offer the same utility as a cedar fence. Lower-grade wooden fencing will often result in you having to replace materials more often. Not only is this taxing on you, creating more work, but it also costs additional money to get the replacements done. You don’t want to spend your time and your money trying to maintain a lower-quality fence when you could go with cedar fencing. Cedar fences have many attributes that make them the ideal choice for your home.

Durability

Cedar fences are among the most durable wooden fencing types there are, alongside redwood. Western red cedar is incredibly stable and undergoes minimal shrinkage. This ensures your fence will be secure, sturdy, and straight. Oils found in the wood help cedar fencing to keep its appearance as well, so your fence will not only be strong, but it will also look new.

Adaptability

Whether you need a fence to keep loved ones safe in your yard or raise privacy so you don’t feel like you’re being watched while outside, cedar fencing can serve many purposes. Cedar fencing can also be used to create a wide array of different fence styles, including estate, picket, and privacy fences.

Being Green

If you’re going to buy a cedar fence, you want that fencing to be made from real wood. Real cedar fencing is a superb choice for anyone who wants to be environmentally-friendly. There are red cedar fences that remove greenhouse gases from the air. These fences are also renewable and biodegradable as well. As an added motive, if you choose cedar fencing, the lumber you get will almost surely come from a sustainable forest.

Attractiveness

On top of the many utilities that cedar fencing brings to the table, it also has a great outward appeal. This type of wood always looks sharp and is famous for its rich grains and the gorgeous vibrant colors it offers. Cedar fencing gives your yard added amounts of beauty and offers a more lush appearance. It is tough to compete against cedar fencing when it comes to a fence’s elegance.

We could not be more pleased with the entire process and outcome of our experience with Albaugh & Sons. From the timely turnaround on coming out to give us an estimate, to the flexibility on adjusting our proposal, and to the quick and professional installation itself. I would highly recommend Albaugh & Sons to anyone in their area of serviceability.

So great to work with. Have had the pleasure of working with both sons who were knowledgeable and courteous. The entire process was easy from estimate to completion of my new deck. Both arrived on time, had my estimate for both deck and basement remodel in a couple of days. Danny, the project manager arrived on time and explained the plans, the work crew were amazing. Old deck demolished and beautiful new composite in its place in less than 2 days. Tiffany, the office manager is prompt in responding to all emails with courteous knowledgeable answers. They make you feel like you are their only customer. Look forward to working with them for my basement remodel. I 100% recommend this company.

I had a beautiful deck built almost 2 years ago. I called yesterday about a few items that have come apart such as the pvc outside corners on the rim/ band board etc. The company was very responsive and ready and eager to help. Because of this, they have made a customer for life! Not only will you get an amazing product, but it appears you get a lifetime of amazing customer service!! 100 out of 5 stars!

We needed a fence as fast as possible for 5 rescue dogs that we took on. Albaugh and Sons was able to provide a great quote and a speedy installation. My wife and I love the new fence. It has literally improved our day to day lives by being able to let the dogs run free in the back. The materials were perfect and high quality. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

I hired Albaugh and Sons to tear out our old deck and replace it with a new composite deck/ screened porch. The front office was a pleasure to deal with and kept my wife and I informed on everything. The crew did an amazing job every step of the way. I was especially impressed with their finish work. The attention to detail was impressive! What I also liked Albaugh and Sons is they had a project manager (Danny) who would occasionally pop over and answer questions and would also keep me updated on progress. I would highly recommend hiring Albaugh and Sons for any of your fence/ deck / home improvement needs.

We are very pleased with the work done by Albaugh and sons. We had them replace our side porch and they did excellent work and built it to our request. Also had them install a three tier rail fence around our property. It is excellent and looks great. We thank Danny and his deck crew and George and his fence crew for their excellent work. I recommend them for any projects you need done. Thank you very much!!
