A well-built pressure-treated pine fence typically lasts about 15 to 20 years in the Charlotte area. The biggest factors are how the posts are set in our clay soil, keeping mulch and dirt off the boards, and sealing or staining every few years. Timber Fencing sets posts to shed water, which helps the fence stay straight longer.

Wood privacy fence installation from Timber Fencing starts at $28 per linear foot. Final pricing is based on the size and scope of the project, including footage, height, style, gates and site conditions. Timber Fencing measures on site and gives you a free, itemized written estimate before any work starts.

Most residential wood fences take Timber Fencing one to three days on site, depending on length, slope and the number of gates. The start date depends on the season and your HOA approval. Utilities are marked before any digging, and Zach confirms your start date when you approve the estimate.

New pressure-treated lumber holds a lot of moisture, so most fences should dry for several weeks to a few months before staining or sealing. A simple test: sprinkle water on a board. If it soaks in, the wood is ready. If it beads up, give it more time. Timber Fencing covers this at the final walkthrough.

A standard wood privacy fence has boards on one side of the rails with no gaps, so it looks finished on the outside. A shadowbox, or board-on-board, fence alternates boards on both sides. It looks good from either side and lets air through while still blocking the view, but it uses more lumber and costs more.

In the Charlotte area, wood is the most affordable way to get full privacy and the easiest to customize, but it needs sealing or staining every few years. Vinyl costs more up front and needs almost no upkeep. Aluminum suits pools and open views rather than privacy. Timber Fencing installs all three, including vinyl fence installation and aluminum fence installation.

Yes. Timber Fencing builds wood fences on sloped yards across the Charlotte region in one of two ways. A stepped fence keeps each section level and steps down the hill. A racked fence follows the slope so the bottom stays close to the ground. Zach recommends the right method for your yard during the estimate.

If you live in an HOA, plan on getting approval first. Most Charlotte-area HOAs set rules for wood fence height, style and stain color. Timber Fencing provides the layout and specs your board asks for. Local zoning can also limit height in front yards and near corners, and we confirm property lines during the estimate.

Yes. Timber Fencing can tear out and haul away an old wood or chain-link fence before building your new wood fence. Removal is listed as its own line on your written estimate, so you can see exactly what it adds. If the old fence only needs fence repair, we'll tell you that instead.

Yes. Timber Fencing builds walk gates and double drive gates to match your wood fence, framed and braced to resist sagging and hung on heavy-duty hinges and latches. Gates are priced separately on the estimate. For aluminum and custom driveway gates, see our gate installation service in Charlotte.
