Many people love to go for the privacy that a cedar fence can offer, 6 feet tall modified panel fence built from western red cedar boards and pressure treated posts. Most people don't realize that you can build an open option by putting spaces between the fence boards. Common spaces are a 1/2, 3/4 and a full inch - anything more than a full inch starts to look a little odd. You can also choose to alternate fence boards, maybe you'd like a 4 inch board with a 1/2 inch space and then a 2 inch board, alternating.
A fence with gaps affords you some privacy, but still allows you to see through to the other side and may be a great option if you're on friendly terms with your neighbor. If you're getting a quote from a fence installer and you're interested, don't hesitate to ask for spaces!

If you're a homeowner and are looking to get a wood fence built, there's never been a better time than right now. With the economy massively struggling there are a lot of good companies that are looking to find enough work. Because of that, you can find some oustanding deals on custom cedar fences - if you ask for a deal I'm sure they will work with you.
It's hard to commit cash to a major project, but if you know you want it done in the next 6 months, it would be financially prudent to get it done over the next couple months rather than waiting for the spring and the big rush when it gets really busy and prices invariably go up. Don't be afraid to ask for a price break - you can never get what you don't ask for!

Now that you've lined up the string for setting your posts, it's time to get digging. Typically you want to go 18-24 inches down into the ground. If you don't dig far enough your posts will lean or topple over in time. Make sure you use concrete, people often try to skimp by and just fill the dirt back in the fence will assuredly fall over given enough time.
Once the posts are set in concrete, it's time to let them set over 24 hours. If you don't let them properly cure you may get each post off line and throw off your nice new fence. After the drying is done, its time to put up the 2x4's and the fence boards. Cut each 2x4 to 8 feet and put on a top and bottom rail at a minimum. After that you can put on your fence boards and can even throw up some custom lattice if you like the look.
Many people like post caps as it adds a nice look to the fence rather than leaving a naked post. Now that you've built your fence, I'm sure all your neighbor's will want you to do the same for them!

If you have the know how and the desire, building your own fence can be a rewarding and fiscally responsible decision. The first thing you need to do is mesaure off the distance where your fence is going to go. If you're building a chain link fence plan on about 10 feet between the posts and for cedar it's standard to do an 8 foot span between posts. After you've calculated your linear footage, tally up the number of 2x4's, fence boards (commonly 1x4x6's) and posts that you're going to need.
After you have an accurate count of materials, it's time to order. As a homeowner you will most likely be getting your materials from a big box store like Lowe's or Home Depot. The posts you get from a big box store typically measure 3.5 x 3.5 inches which is smaller than the oversized 4.125 x 4.125 inch posts that fence builders commonly use. You will also find it hard to get high quality 1 x 4 x 6 fence boards at the bigger box stores, but if you pick and choose the right materials you can usually find what you need.
The next step is to set your posts. The easiest method for lining up your posts is to set a string along the line you're looking to build. It's important that you know where your property line is so you don't overbuild. In Part 2, we'll talk about building your fence.
