Top 3 Reasons to Choose a Cedar Wood Fence for Your Home

If you’re in the market for a new fence for your home, a cedar wood fence should be at the top of your list. Cedar is an excellent material for homeowners who want classic form and function that’s durable. At Amerifence, we specialize in installing high-quality cedar wood fences in the Indianapolis area. Let’s dive into the top three reasons why cedar is such a fantastic option for your new fence.

1. True Durability

One of cedar wood’s standout benefits is its natural resistance to rot and decay. Because of this, it's a popular choice in areas where weather conditions shift throughout the year. Cedar’s unique composition of high oil and acid also acts as a natural preservative, helping the wood survive moisture, pests, and fungi.

At Amerifence, we utilize the center cut of the cedar tree, known as the heartwood, for posts and frames. Why? We want our customers to have fences that are crafted from the strongest, most durable section of the wood.

2. Beautiful Colors and Grain

A cedar wood fence is as beautiful as it is functional. Its rich color, fine grain, and smooth texture create a distinctive charm that blends seamlessly into any outdoor space. Over time, cedar develops a lovely weathered look that makes it all the more appealing.

You can decide to stain or paint it, too. Its paint and stain-holding capabilities are top-tier, so it's easy to customize the look of your new fence to suit the architectural style of your home.

3. Exceptional Nail-Holding Ability

One of cedar's most notable qualities is its superior nail-holding ability. Its natural density and grain structure allow nails to grip securely without splitting the wood. Your fence can remain intact even in challenging conditions like heavy winds or severe storms.

If you're considering a cedar wood fence, reach out to our knowledgeable team for advice tailored to your needs. We also install aluminum, vinyl, and chain link fences in Indianapolis, McCordsville, Avon, Brownsburg, New Palestine, Plainfield, and beyond.
