Handcrafted cedar fencing with natural beauty, full customization, and expert installation across Salt Lake City, Ogden, Provo and surrounding areas.
Why Cedar?
Cedar is the gold standard for wood fencing — and for good reason. Here's why Utah homeowners keep choosing it.
Cedar has a rich, warm grain that no synthetic material can fully replicate. It brings an organic, timeless character to any yard — and actually improves in appearance as it weathers naturally.
Classic AppealCedar accepts stains, paints, and sealers better than any other fence wood. Want it to match your home's trim? Go dark and bold? Natural honey tones? Cedar gives you total creative control.
Fully CustomizableCedar contains natural oils that make it significantly more resistant to rot, insects, and decay than other wood species like pine or spruce. It's one of the best woods you can choose for Utah's climate.
Durable by NatureCedar fences blend beautifully with Utah's desert landscapes, mountain backdrops, and traditional home styles. It's the classic choice that never looks out of place — and always adds value.
Always In StyleMaintenance Tips
Cedar is naturally durable, but Utah's climate — intense UV in summer, hard freezes in winter, and spring moisture — means your fence benefits from regular maintenance to stay looking sharp and structurally sound.
Seal or stain every 2–3 years. Without a fresh coat of stain or sealer, cedar will begin to grey and eventually develop surface checks. Greying is cosmetic at first, but left untreated, it can allow moisture to penetrate deeper and accelerate rot — especially in shaded or north-facing sections.
With proper maintenance, a well-built cedar fence in Utah lasts 15–20 years. Some installations go longer with diligent upkeep. The investment you make in annual or biennial maintenance pays for itself many times over in extended fence life.
Year 1
Apply a penetrating oil-based sealer or stain within 6 months of installation, once the wood has dried out.
Every 2–3 Years
Reapply stain or sealer on a clean, dry fence. Light sanding first helps the product penetrate deeper and adhere better.
Spring Inspection
Check for popped nails, loose boards, or ground contact on posts. Catching small issues early prevents big repairs later.
Avoid Sprinkler Contact
Direct sprinkler spray on cedar dramatically accelerates moisture damage. Keep irrigation heads pointed away from fence boards.
Privacy & Security
A cedar fence isn't just beautiful — it creates a secure, private sanctuary for your family.
