Western Red Cedar Wood
Austex Fence and Deck sources all its wood fencing materials from premium manufacturers, so you know you’re always getting the best product. Austex customers often choose beautiful western red cedar for their wood fence because of its durability and resistance.
Homeowners also have a lot of design choices with western red cedar. You can leave it unfinished for a natural, rustic weathered look or stain it to your favorite wood color for an even longer life expectancy. You’ll need to re-stain your western red cedar fence every couple of years if you choose this option.

Wood Fencing Cost
The cost to install a fence will vary based on the materials, terrain, style, and size. While competitors may also quote a low price, many times these estimates don’t include any fees beyond the base cost of the fence.
Our online fence cost calculator includes materials, perimeter, and estimated labor costs, so you can plan your budget with a realistic estimate. Plus, we keep you updated on all the costs that go into your project from start to finish, so there are no surprises when your project is done.
Finance Your Fencing Project
As a local business, we want to help our neighbors beautify their outdoor spaces without setting them back financially.
That’s why we offer financing options through Wells Fargo for customers to pay for their purchase over up to 18 months, subject to approved credit.
Types of Wood Fencing
With Austex, Central Texas homeowners have a wide range of fence types to choose from, such as modern-style horizontal or board-on-board fences. Alternatively, good neighbor and lattice fences offer more customization and a classic curb appeal.
Horizontal Fence
The horizontal fence is modern and practical, making it a popular fence type in Central Texas. Horizontal wood fencing also offers customizations with height, length, and slat spacing.
Cedar Privacy Fence
The cedar privacy fence is a customer favorite at Austex. Homeowners can customize cedar fence cuts to any height, change picket width, and add top accents to personalize this fence to your home.
Board on Board Fence
Austin homeowners who want a private, fully enclosed yard enjoy our board-on-board fence. The board-on-board fence can also be a low-maintenance option, as it covers line separation from wood shrinkage while also adding depth.
Good Neighbor Fence
Improve both your and your neighbor’s curb appeal with a good neighbor fence: alternating wood panels with cedar picket-wrapped posts for a design that’s appealing no matter which side of the fence you’re on.
Bullwire Fence
Choose a bullwire fence for a rustic yet modern look. It’s a great front yard option when you want to maintain consistent airflow, sunlight, and views, even with a fence.
Shadowbox Fence
We can help you control how much sunlight or privacy your yard gets with a shadowbox fence by customizing the spacing of the pickets.
Lattice Fence
Lattice fences are a great choice for surrounding a garden and can even become a part of your garden by supporting growing vines and roses.
Dog Eared Fence
Austex can accommodate sloping or uneven terrain with dog-eared fences.
Wood Fencing Components
Mix and match posts, pickets, rails, and gates to create a custom fence unique to you.
Metal posts are popular among Central Texas homeowners because of their exceptional strength and ability to withstand extreme weather conditions.
Treated pine posts are made with premium wood directly from the mill. Cedar posts offer contemporary design and last between 6-10 years, but may not last as long in dry areas.
Homeowners can choose from a variety of picket heights, lengths, and materials. Popular choices include flat-top, dog-eared, western red cedar, or rightwood.
Austex often uses cedar rails because they are extremely durable against warping and cracking, even in the most extreme Texas heat.
Wood Fencing FAQ
Some wood fence materials last longer than others, redwood, pressure-treated pine, and cedar tend to last the longest.
Cedar fences can last between 10 and 30 years in the most humid climates, including Texas. Even other home projects that use cedar with zero maintenance are capable of lasting between 10-15 years. A United States Department of Agriculture study found that western red cedar is one of the most durable, long-lasting materials, making it a common choice for other household structures, like roofs.
The best wood to use for a privacy fence is western red cedar wood. Austex uses western red cedar wood to create stylish, durable privacy fences for our Austin and Central Texas customers.
Pressure-treated wood and cedar have similar lifespans. Cedar can last anywhere between 10-30 years, and pressure-treated wood can last between 10-15 years or longer with the proper maintenance.
