What We Install

Three styles to match your community's requirements — all built with pressure treated lumber and concrete posts as standard.

Single Picket Fence

The most common style required by Edmonton communities. 6 ft height with 4×6 or 6×6 posts depending on neighbourhood specifications. Clean, uniform look that meets developer requirements.

Double Picket Fence

A beefier build with pickets on both sides — eliminates gaps for full privacy. Less common but required in some communities. Higher material cost but a more substantial, finished appearance from both sides.

Contemporary Horizontal

Clean, modern horizontal slat design. A popular upgrade for homeowners looking for a contemporary aesthetic while still using durable pressure treated lumber and concrete posts.

Walk & RV Gates

Standard walk gates and oversized RV/double gates built to match your fence style. Heavy-duty hardware on all gates — designed to handle daily use and Edmonton's freeze-thaw cycles.

Why We Only Use Pressure Treated Lumber

We get asked about rough spruce fences regularly. They're cheaper upfront — but they don't hold up to Edmonton's climate. Rough spruce rots, warps, and splits within a few years, even with stain. You end up replacing boards or the entire fence far sooner than you'd expect.

Pressure treated lumber is infused with preservatives that protect against rot, insects, and moisture. It's the only material we install because we want every fence we build to last — not just look good for a season.

When to Stain

Pressure treated lumber needs to dry and cure before staining — typically one to two full seasons after installation. Once the wood no longer beads water, it's ready for a quality exterior stain. This ensures the stain penetrates properly and gives you the best long-term finish.

Concrete posts are non-negotiable. Every post we set is concreted into the ground. It costs more than tamped gravel or dirt backfill — but it's the difference between a fence that stays plumb for 15+ years and one that leans after the first frost heave.

Community Fence Requirements

In most Edmonton neighbourhoods, the developer sets the fence requirements — style, height, post size, and sometimes even the stain colour. Homeowners typically don't get to choose.

When you buy a new home, your builder or the community's architectural guidelines will specify whether you need a single picket or double picket fence, and whether posts are 4×6 or 6×6. We work directly with these specs to make sure your fence passes inspection the first time.

Not sure what your community requires? Send us your lot address and we'll look up the requirements for you. We've installed fences across Keswick, Orchards, Windermere, Paisley, Chappelle, Alces, Marquis, and more — chances are we already know your community's specs.

We Don't Install Vinyl Fencing

We get asked about vinyl fencing from time to time. It's not something we offer — we focus exclusively on pressure treated wood fencing because it's what we know performs best in Edmonton's climate. If you're specifically looking for vinyl, we'd recommend reaching out to a contractor who specialises in that material.

How It Works

From quote to finished fence — straightforward and efficient.

Step 01

Request a Quote

Send us your lot address and any fence specs from your builder or community. We'll measure, confirm requirements, and provide a detailed quote — no surprises.

Step 02

Locate & Layout

We call Alberta One-Call to locate underground utilities. Posts are marked out and aligned to property lines. Every post location is confirmed before we dig.

Step 03

Set Posts in Concrete

Posts are set plumb and concreted into the ground. We allow proper cure time before attaching rails and pickets — rushing this step is how fences end up leaning.

Step 04

Build & Finish

Rails are attached, pickets are installed to spec, and gates are hung with heavy-duty hardware. We clean up and walk the fence line with you before we leave.
