Picket Fencing
Picket Fence Installation
The friendly front-yard classic. Picket fence defines the yard and lifts the whole curb without walling anything off.
A picket fence is the look people picture when they picture a home — open, welcoming and tidy. It marks the yard, keeps small kids and pets close, and adds instant charm without blocking the view or the light. We build picket in cedar, treated pine and low-maintenance vinyl, in classic three- and four-foot heights.
Where a picket fence really earns its keep is the detail: evenly spaced pickets, a crisp top line and the right post caps. We build straight-top and scalloped runs, dog-ear and gothic picket profiles, and finish them with decorative caps and clean gates that make the front walk feel finished.

The Details
Small fence, big curb appeal
Picket fence is as much about looks as function, so the craftsmanship shows. We keep spacing consistent, posts plumb and the top line true, whether it’s a straight run or a scalloped dip between posts. Vinyl picket gives you that bright white finish with zero painting; cedar and pine can be stained or painted to match your trim.
It’s a smaller project than a full privacy fence, and a great way to test out working with us. Ask for a free estimate and we’ll lay it out.
