Stockade, Charleston, and shadowbox wood fences built for Upstate yards. Free on-site estimates.
Wood is still the fence a lot of Upstate homeowners picture when they say they want privacy. It is warm. It matches brick and older siding. And when it is built straight, with tight boards and solid posts, it looks like it belongs on the property instead of sitting on top of it.
We install wood privacy fences from our home base in Anderson through Greenville and the towns in between. The three styles people ask for most are standard stockade, Charleston, and shadowbox. You can see all three on our wood styles page.
Stockade is the workhorse. Vertical boards sit tight together for full privacy. It is the most common new wood fence we set on in-town Anderson lots and Greenville backyards that just need a solid wall between the patio and the neighbors.
Charleston adds a Southern top profile. It reads as more finished from the street, which is why it shows up on front-facing runs and older Greenville neighborhoods where a plain stockade feels too blunt. Shadowbox alternates boards on each side of the rails. You get a good-neighbor look (both sides look finished), a little airflow in August, and most of your privacy. That airflow matters in our humidity. A tight wood fence that never dries out is the one that cups and rots first.
Board-on-board, picket, ranch rail, and custom heights are on the table too. If you already have a wood fence on one side of the lot, we can match the style so the new run does not look like a different job.
Wood and Upstate weather have a long argument. Summer humidity keeps boards wet. Red clay holds water around post holes after a two-inch rain. Then a storm season like Helene reminds everyone what a fence looks like when posts were set too shallow or a run was never tied in right. We set posts for this soil, keep the line true on slopes, and talk honestly about stain and seal. A wood fence will need care. That is not a sales pitch for vinyl. It is just the truth, and we would rather you hear it before you sign.
If you are trying to decide between wood and vinyl, read vinyl vs wood for South Carolina. If the current fence is leaning or full of rot, repair vs replace will help you spend the money once.
