Pressure-Treated Pine Fencing
Pressure-treated pine fencing as a practical, widely available option.
About pressure-treated pine fencing
Pressure-treated pine is treated to resist rot and insect damage, which makes it a practical choice for fence framing and full fence builds. It is widely available and generally costs less than cedar.
Fresh treated lumber often arrives with a high moisture content. We will explain what that means for the first few months and for any staining you plan to do.
Scope
What is included, and what to think about
Typical inclusions
- Pressure-treated components as specified in the estimate
- Post setting
- Framing and picket installation
- Gate installation where included
- Cleanup of installation debris
Practical considerations
Things that genuinely affect the work, said plainly before you commit.
- Newly treated lumber holds moisture and can warp or check as it dries.
- Staining should usually wait until the wood has dried; timing varies with weather.
- Colour and appearance differ from cedar.
- Cut ends benefit from field treatment, which we apply where specified.
