Wood Privacy Fencing
Commercial and Residential Wood Privacy Fences
Southern Pro Fence builds wood privacy fences for homes and businesses across Central Florida. Whether you are screening a backyard, enclosing a pool area, defining a property line, or adding warmth and curb appeal to a commercial space, a wood privacy fence delivers the natural look and full-height privacy property owners ask for.
We install wood privacy fencing in the styles most trusted by Florida homeowners: solid dog-ear, shadowbox, and board-on-board, using pressure-treated pine and cedar built to handle Florida’s heat, humidity, and afternoon storms. Posts are set in concrete, framing is squared and leveled, and every picket is fastened to last.
From standard six-foot backyard privacy fences to taller eight-foot commercial enclosures, Southern Pro Fence installs wood fencing that looks great the day it goes in and holds its line for years to come. Prefer a fence that never needs staining? See our vinyl fence installation.

Common Questions
Wood Privacy Fence FAQs
What are the benefits of a wood privacy fence?
A wood privacy fence provides full visual screening, a warm natural look, and strong, solid construction. Wood is the most popular privacy fence material in Florida because it offers true backyard privacy while complementing almost any home style.
How long does a wood privacy fence last in Florida?
With proper installation and basic maintenance, a pressure-treated wood privacy fence typically lasts 15 to 20 years in Central Florida, while cedar can last even longer. Setting posts in concrete, sealing the wood every few years, and keeping vegetation trimmed back all extend the life of the fence.
What types of wood do you install?
Southern Pro Fence installs pressure-treated pine and cedar wood privacy fences. Pressure-treated pine is the most popular and value-friendly option for Florida and is treated to resist rot, insects, and moisture. Cedar is a premium option chosen for its color, longevity, and natural resistance.
What wood privacy fence styles are available?
We install the most-requested wood privacy styles in Florida, including solid dog-ear, shadowbox (good neighbor), board-on-board, and flat-top privacy fences. We can also customize height, post caps, and trim to match the look you want.
How tall should a wood privacy fence be?
Six feet is the standard height for residential wood privacy fences and provides full backyard privacy. Eight-foot wood fences are available for properties that need additional screening or sound buffering, such as homes near roads or commercial sites. Local code may limit fence height in front yards.
Should I stain or seal my new wood fence?
Wood fences can be left to weather to a natural silver-gray, or stained and sealed to preserve color and add protection. We typically recommend letting a new fence dry out for 30 to 60 days before applying stain or sealer, then re-coating every two to three years for the best results.
How deep are wood fence posts installed?
Posts are set in concrete to ensure long-term stability and resistance to wind. Depth varies based on soil conditions, fence height, and local requirements, but Southern Pro Fence sets every post for the long haul.
Does a wood privacy fence require a permit in Marion County?
In many cases, a permit is required depending on fence height, location, and whether the property is in an HOA. Southern Pro Fence helps guide you through the permitting process so everything is handled correctly before installation begins.
How long does it take to install a wood privacy fence?
Most residential wood privacy fence projects are completed in two to four days, depending on the size of the property, layout complexity, and site conditions. We will give you a clear timeline at the time of estimate.
Will a wood privacy fence increase my property value?
A well-installed wood privacy fence can improve curb appeal, security, and usable yard space, all of which can add to your property’s value. Wood fencing is especially desirable in residential neighborhoods where privacy and a warm, traditional look are priorities.
