When you plan your fence there are a number of options you have to consider, eg. fence style, the height of your fence and the materials you will use.
Measure your property boundary, indicating the location of your house, the location of gates, trees, etc.
Bring your sketch and measurements to Perkins Lumber for a no obligation cost estimate and materials list (our location)
Check that your design meets local building code regulations.

The fence boards will shrink leaving a crack between them. If you wish to avoid this, consider using kiln dried tongue and groove lumber.
