Project Overview

This cedar fence installation project in Royse City, TX covered 95 linear feet of new fencing at an 8-foot height,
built in a board-on-board style with cedar cap and double trim detailing along the top. The scope began with full
removal and disposal of the existing fence, followed by the installation of new heavy-gauge metal posts set in
concrete. A new gate was also added as part of the build.
Every A&O Texas Solutions 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 1x8, 8-foot cedar pickets in a board-on-board pattern, supported by 2x4 pressure-treated
rails and a 2x6 pressure-treated baseboard along the bottom of the fence line. The fence was finished with 2x6
cedar caps and 1x4 cedar double trim along the top, giving it a polished, upscale look. Each post is a 13-gauge
metal post set in concrete, finished with galvanized metal caps and Simpson brackets for added structural strength.
The entire fence was finished with a pre-dip Dark Walnut stain, giving the cedar a deep, rich tone that highlights the
board-on-board pattern and cap-and-double-trim detailing. This approach ensures complete, even coverage on all
sides of the wood, helping the new fence resist moisture, sun exposure, and everyday wear from the very first day.

Why Royse City, TX Homeowners Choose A&O Texas Solutions for New Fence Installation

Royse City's hot summers and occasional severe weather put real demands on any wood fence. A new cedar
fence built with concrete-set metal posts, pressure-treated framing, and a quality Dark Walnut stain finish is
designed to stand up to those conditions far better than an aging, weathered structure.
Homeowners across Royse City and the surrounding DFW communities choose a cedar fence installation like this
one when they want to:
• Replace a section of old, worn, or failing fence with a durable new structure
• Add cap and double trim detailing for a more finished, upscale appearance
• Choose a rich stain color, such as Dark Walnut, to elevate the property's look
• Add a new gate as part of the same focused project
• Get long-term stability from new concrete-set metal posts
Because cedar is a natural material, some variation in grain and tone is normal even under a Dark Walnut stain,
but the combination of pressure-treated framing, concrete-set posts, and a properly finished baseboard gives this
fence a strong foundation for years of reliable performance.

Project Results and Highlights

By the end of this project, the homeowner in Royse City, TX had a brand-new 95-foot, 8-foot-tall cedar
board-on-board fence with cap and double trim detailing, a new gate, and a Dark Walnut stain finish, backed by
A&O Texas Solutions' 2-year labor warranty. The project included new concrete-set posts, with free debris
haul-away included, leaving the property clean and the fence ready to enjoy.
This project is a great example of what a cedar fence installation can deliver: a fresh, durable fence section with
upscale detailing and a rich stain finish, completed efficiently with no surprises along the way.
