Wood Fences

The Timeless Appeal of Wood Fencing

There's something special about a well-built wood fence. It adds character to your property in a way that other materials just can't match. Whether you want a classic picket fence, a tall privacy fence, or a decorative split-rail design, wood gives you that natural, welcoming look that never goes out of style. Plus, wood fences blend beautifully with landscaping and complement any home design.

At BlueRidge Bethesda Fencing, we build wood fences that stand the test of time. Our team uses quality lumber, proven construction techniques, and attention to detail that makes all the difference. From your first consultation to the final walkthrough, we make the process easy and deliver results that exceed your expectations.

Popular Wood Fence Styles

We install a wide variety of wood fence styles to match your needs and preferences. Each style has its own benefits, and we help you choose the perfect option for your property. Here are the most popular choices:

• •Privacy fences with solid boards that block views and reduce noise
• •Picket fences for that charming, traditional curb appeal
• •Split-rail fences perfect for defining property lines with a rustic look
• •Semi-privacy fences with board-on-board designs for style and airflow
• •Shadowbox fences that look great from both sides
• •Custom designs tailored to your specific vision and property needs

Choosing the Right Wood for Your Fence

Not all wood is created equal when it comes to fencing. We primarily work with cedar and pressure-treated pine because they perform best in Maryland's climate. Cedar naturally resists rot and insects, ages beautifully to a silver-gray patina, and requires minimal maintenance. Pressure-treated pine is more budget-friendly while still offering excellent durability when properly cared for.

Your choice depends on your budget, desired look, and maintenance preferences. We walk you through the pros and cons of each option so you can make an informed decision. Either way, we use only quality lumber and build your fence to last for many years.

Protecting Your Investment

A wood fence needs some care to stay looking great. Staining or sealing your fence every two to three years protects the wood from moisture and UV damage. Regular cleaning prevents mold and mildew buildup. We offer guidance on maintenance and can recommend trusted local professionals if you prefer to have someone else handle it. With proper care, your wood fence will serve you well for 15 to 20 years or more.
