Project Overview
This cedar fence project in Duncanville, TX covered 98 linear feet of new fencing at a 6-foot height, built in a
side-by-side board style. The scope began with full removal and disposal of the existing fence, followed by the
installation of heavy-gauge metal posts set 24 to 30 inches deep in concrete. A new wood-framed gate was also
added, giving the homeowner convenient, secure access along the fence line.
Every job also includes free haul-away of trash and job-site debris, so the homeowner was left with a finished
fence and a clean property, with nothing left to manage on their own.
Materials and Construction Process Behind This Cedar Fence
This cedar fence used 1x6, 6-foot cedar pickets arranged side by side, supported by 2x4 pressure-treated rails and
a 2x6 pressure-treated baseboard along the bottom of the fence line. Each post is a 13-gauge metal post set in
concrete, finished with galvanized metal caps and Simpson brackets for added structural strength. The new gate
matches the fence in height and style, built with a wood frame, a 3 to 4-foot width, and new hardware for smooth,
reliable operation.
The finishing touch on this project is its Pecan stain, applied to every board before installation for complete, even
coverage. This warm, natural tone highlights the cedar's grain while helping the new fence resist moisture, sun
exposure, and everyday wear from the very first day.
Why Duncanville, TX Homeowners Choose A&O Texas Solutions for New Fence Installation
Duncanville's hot summers and occasional storms put real demands on any wood fence. A new cedar fence built
with concrete-set metal posts, pressure-treated framing, and a quality Pecan stain finish is designed to stand up to
those conditions far better than an aging, weathered structure.
Homeowners across Duncanville and the surrounding DFW communities choose a full cedar fence installation like
this one when they want to:
• Replace an old, worn, or failing fence with a durable new structure
• Add a warm stain color, such as Pecan, that complements their home's exterior
• Add a new gate for convenient, secure access
• Get long-term stability from concrete-set metal posts instead of wood posts alone
• Complete a full fence replacement on a predictable, short timeline
Because cedar is a natural material, some variation in grain and tone is normal even under a Pecan stain, but the
combination of pressure-treated framing, concrete-set posts, and a properly finished gate gives this fence a strong
foundation for years of reliable performance.
Project Results and Highlights
By the end of this project, the homeowner in Duncanville, TX had a brand-new 98-foot, 6-foot-tall cedar privacy
fence finished in Pecan stain, complete with a new gate, backed by A&O Texas Solutions' 2-year labor warranty.
Free debris haul-away was included, leaving the property clean and the fence ready to enjoy.
This project is a great example of what a full cedar fence installation can deliver: a fresh, durable privacy fence with
a warm stain finish and functional new access, completed with careful attention to detail along the property line.
