A Fence You Never Sand, Stain, or Replace a Board On
Composite fencing for people done with maintenance — no rot, no cupping, no re-staining, and a color that holds. Heavier than wood, so the post system underneath is what makes it last in Northwest ground.

Signs to watch
Is this you?
You're done maintaining a wood fence
Composite doesn't need sanding, sealing, or re-staining, and it won't rot at the boards or feed insects. You trade a higher up-front cost for years of leaving it alone.
You want a color that stays
Cedar silvers to gray and stain fades and peels. Composite holds its color through the wet-dry seasons, so the fence looks the same in year ten as year one — without a paintbrush.
You want full privacy without gaps
Composite privacy panels close the sightlines tight and don't shrink and open up the way wood does when it dries, so the privacy you buy is the privacy you keep.
You've heard composite fences sag
Composite boards are heavier than wood, so a system built for cedar spacing can sag. The fix is the manufacturer's engineered post-and-rail system, set right — not saving money on the frame.
Your options
The right post system is what makes composite last
We install composite fencing built on the manufacturer's engineered post-and-rail systems — not wood boards on a generic frame. Composite is heavier than cedar, so the posts, rails, and spacing are spec'd for that weight, and cutting corners there is the one way composite fails. You choose color and privacy level, from full-privacy panels to a semi-private reveal, and we're straight about how composite compares to cedar and vinyl: it costs more than both up front, holds color better than stained wood, and takes impact better than vinyl in the cold. Under all of it, the fundamentals still rule Northwest ground — posts set in concrete over a gravel base so water drains away, and coated hardware that won't streak. We'll walk your yard and tell you honestly whether composite earns its premium for how you'll use the fence.
The method
How we do it
- 01
Line, layout, and utility locate
We confirm the property line, plan post spacing to the composite system's spec, pull any permit the city requires, and call in a utility locate before a single post hole — what's underground is ours to sort out, not yours.
- 02
Engineered posts set to drain
The manufacturer's post system set below frost line on a gravel base so water moves away from the footing, spaced and reinforced for composite's weight, and plumbed true — the step that keeps heavier boards from sagging.
- 03
Panels, gates, and walkthrough
Composite boards and rails assembled to spec, gates hung to swing true and latch clean, then a walk of the whole line together. Most residential runs: 2–5 days.
Straight numbers
Composite fence pricing
Composite runs meaningfully more up front than cedar — often a fair bit more per linear foot — because the material and the engineered post system both cost more. What you're buying back is years of no staining, no board replacement, and no rot. Length, height, color, privacy level, terrain, and gates move the number. Posts, drainage, gates, and haul-off of the old fence are in the quote, not add-ons — we price the whole line before anything is set.
Where we do this work
Composite Fences: straight answers
Composite, cedar, or vinyl — which should I pick?
Cedar for the lowest up-front cost and a natural look you're willing to maintain. Vinyl for a clean white line and no maintenance at a mid price. Composite when you want no maintenance plus a wood-like look and color that holds, and it takes impact better than vinyl in the cold. Composite costs the most up front — we'll tell you honestly whether it's worth it for your yard.
Does composite fencing really need no maintenance?
Effectively none of the wood kind — no sanding, sealing, or re-staining, and it won't rot or feed insects. An occasional rinse to clear dirt or moss film is about it in our climate. That freedom from upkeep is the whole reason to pay the premium.
Will composite hold up in the wet Northwest?
Yes — that's where it shines. It doesn't absorb water, rot, or cup through wet-dry cycles the way wood does. The one caution is weight: composite is heavier than cedar, so it has to go on the engineered post system set to drain, which is exactly how we build it.
Does composite fade or discolor over time?
Quality composite is color-stable and resists UV fading far better than stained wood, so it stays close to its original tone for years. You may see slight, even weathering early on as any material settles, but you won't get the gray-out or peeling stain that wood and paint give you.
