Cedar Fence Installation in North Dallas

Cedar Fencing in North Dallas

Why Cedar Is North Dallas’s Favorite Fence Wood

Cedar is the material most North Dallas homeowners choose for a wood fence — and for good reason. High-quality cedar is naturally rich in oils that resist rot, decay, and insects without chemical treatment, so it holds up through everything North Texas throws at it: triple-digit summer heat, sudden storms, and the straight-line winds that sweep across Collin and Denton counties. Unlike treated pine, cedar resists the warping, cupping, and twisting that turn a new fence into a wavy eyesore within a couple of Texas summers.

It also simply looks better. Cedar’s tight, straight grain and warm tone give a fence real curb appeal the day it goes up — and whether you stain it or let it weather to a silvery gray, it ages gracefully. For most North Dallas yards, cedar is the sweet spot of durability, beauty, and value.

Built on Hidden U-Channel Steel Posts

What sets a Picket Pros cedar fence apart is what holds it up. North Texas clay swells when wet and shrinks when dry, and that movement pushes ordinary wood posts out of plumb within a few years. We build on U-channel steel posts set in concrete: the rails slide straight into the channel and fasten there, the pickets mount to the rails like any cedar fence, and we finish each post with a cover picket so the steel disappears into the fence line. You get the strength of steel with a true all-wood look — and unlike the round galvanized pipe most crews use, nothing sits proud of the boards.

What Affects the Cost of a Cedar Fence

Every cedar fence is priced individually — there’s no flat per-foot number that fits every yard. Cost comes down to fence height (4, 6, or 8 ft), the style you choose, total linear footage, terrain and soil, the number and type of gates, and finishing options like staining.
