benefits of Coastal western red cedar fencing

The fences that we make from Coastal Western Red Cedar have numerous benefits for homeowners and business owners that choose this exceptional wood product. Sterling Fence Inc. believes whether the reason you’re thinking about getting a Western Red Cedar fence is for added privacy, keeping pets or small children inside your yard, preventing access to your property from strangers or enhancing the appeal of your property, you can’t go wrong with selecting this species of wood.

In addition to the practical features that come with a Coastal Western Red Cedar fence, you also will enjoy these added benefits:

• A longer lifespan. Even in the toughest outdoor environment a Coastal Western Red Cedar (WRC) fence should last 20 years. Western Red Cedar is an extremely durable species of wood. It's also naturally adept at fending off rot and fungi spores. No other species of wood fencing can make this claim.
• Adaptable. Western Red Cedar is hydroscopic, which makes it capable of absorbing water quickly when it's wet outside and then release it back into the air later, preventing cracks from happening. This makes the wood an excellent choice for a home's fence practically anywhere in the country.
• Attractiveness. A WRC fence can be stained, oiled or left with their natural color. Over time weathering will turn the hue of the unstained wood to a silvered color. As well, the wood gives off a natural aroma (a chemical compound called thujaplicins) that most people find pleasing, and which also repels insects from burrowing into the wood.
