Why Cedar Is Best for Fencing?

  • Durability: Cedar wood endures our northern climate much better than other species, with natural resistance to insects, mold, and rot.
  • Stability: Cedar wood’s superior stability means minimal shrinkage, twisting, and warping compared with other wood fencing choices.
  • Eco-friendly: Natural oils repel insects so cedar wood fencing does not require any toxic chemical treatment to prevent insect damage.
  • Low-Maintenance & Natural Beauty: While other woods should be painted or stained to be preserved, cedar can be left to weather to a beautiful natural hue (a silky, silver gray) – making it the only decorative wood fencing choice that’s virtually maintenance free.
