Choosing the Right Fence
Why is cedar fencing so popular? Forty years ago, cedar fence boards were rich with dark red, brown and orange hues. The boards had a strong cedar smell that was so pungent that you might have thought you were locked in your grandmother’s cedar closet. Back then, cedar fencing came from old growth cedar trees. When the trees were harvested; the trunks were as big around as Volkswagens, mostly comprised of heart wood with a few outer sapwood rings. Western Red Cedar trees contain tannins that naturally preserve the wood from decay and insect attack. The inherent tannin oils saturated throughout the lumber naturally protect it outdoors for many years. The darker red tones are derived from the center of the tree called the heartwood where the tannin oils are most concentrated. This characteristic combined with Western Red Cedar’s centuries of proven performance make it the preferred choice for building outdoor structures such as fences, arbors, and pergolas.

What are my options over cedar? There are options. With the restrictions and limitations on harvesting old growth cedar, the wood industry has moved on to less popular but abundant species such as Pine, White Fir and Incense Cedar. These species are in great abundance in older growth trees, providing more options for fence pickets. Although these other options are more cost-efficient, they simply do not provide the longevity that you will get from cedar. Especially considering Frisco, TX weather.
