Horizontal fences are the look of the modern Northwest backyard, and they are less forgiving than a picket fence: every board reads as a line. We build them on steel or oversized cedar posts, with boards gapped evenly and screwed, not nailed, so the pattern stays straight.
We measure on site, and your written estimate arrives the same day.

Horizontal fences run $55-$85 per linear foot installed. They use more lumber and more labor than a standard privacy fence because every board has to be straight and evenly spaced.
Steel posts cost more but never twist, so the boards stay in line for the life of the fence. We recommend steel on long runs and modern designs.
Not when the posts are close enough and the boards are fastened with screws. We keep post spacing at 6 ft on horizontal runs.
