Weather Resistant Split Rail Fences

Weather Resistant Split Rail Fences

Split rail fencing has been used for decades around Alexandria, VA homes to define the perimeter of property, while adding a decorative touch as well. When considering a split rail fence for your home, consider the benefits of red cedar wood over traditional materials such as pine, spruce, and hemlock. Here's why:

• Red cedar split rail fencing is more weather-resistant than other traditionally used materials. The natural properties of red cedar allow it to repel water and withstand the dramatic temperature changes in Catlett, VA.
• The natural composition of red cedar split rail fencing also repels and resists insects better than other types. The natural cedar scent is used in homes – in artificial forms of course – to deter insects in closets and other dark places, so it only makes sense that it would work in nature as well.
• The natural, rough, uncut and uneven appearance of red cedar split rail fencing also is appealing to those looking for a rustic feel. If you are however hoping for a perfect fence with all pieces the same shape and size, red cedar split rail fencing is probably not the best choice for your Fairfax Station, VA home.
• Red cedar split rail fencing is perhaps one of the most cost effective fencing styles for defining boundaries, decorative purposes or even fencing large animals such as horses and livestock.
• Ease of installation and relatively maintenance free use makes red cedar split rail fencing perfect for the busy lifestyle of many Herndon, VA homeowners.
