Liberi Fence installs wood privacy, picket, shadowbox and post-and-rail fences across South Jersey from our shop on Ganttown Road in Turnersville, in the middle of Washington Township. We build in pressure-treated pine and western red cedar, we set every post below the frost line, and we sell the same lumber, posts and hardware with free delivery within 200 miles if you would rather build it yourself. We are a third-generation, family-owned South Jersey fence company.
The style you pick decides how private the fence is, how it handles wind, and which side your neighbor sees.
| Style | Privacy | Common heights | Good to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Board-on-board | Full | 6 ft | Overlapping boards leave no gaps even after the wood shrinks |
| Stockade (dog-ear or flat top) | Full | 6 ft | The most economical privacy style; small gaps can open as boards dry |
| Shadowbox | Semi-private | 5 to 6 ft | Alternating boards look finished from both sides and let some wind through |
| Picket | Low | 3 to 4 ft | Front yards, gardens, historic streets such as Haddonfield |
| Post-and-rail / split rail | None | 3 to 4 ft | Boundaries, larger lots and farm and horse properties |
Before choosing a height, check your township's limits. Most South Jersey ordinances allow taller fences in back yards than in front yards, and corner lots often have sight-line rules. Our guide to the tallest fence you can put up in South Jersey walks through how to find your township's rule.
Pressure-treated pine is the right choice when budget and strength matter most; cedar is the right choice when appearance and lower maintenance matter most.
Treated pine is strong, widely available and the lower-cost option. Posts should be rated for ground contact. Fresh treated lumber is wet and shrinks as it dries, which is why we prefer board-on-board over stockade for a pine privacy fence: the overlap keeps the fence private after shrinkage.
Cedar resists rot and insects naturally, stays straighter as it dries, and has a warmer color. It costs more up front, weathers to a silver-gray if left unsealed, and is often paired with treated posts below grade for strength.
If you are still choosing between materials, our comparison of vinyl vs. wood fences for South Jersey homes covers cost, upkeep and lifespan side by side.
Most wood fences fail at the post line, not the pickets, so we spend the most time below ground.
Washington Township is home base, so Turnersville, Sewell, Hurffville and Grenloch are minutes from the shop. From there our crews install wood fences across Gloucester, Camden and Burlington counties, including Washington Township, Monroe Township and Williamstown, Gloucester Township, Deptford, Glassboro, Cherry Hill and Voorhees.

It depends on the wood, the post setting and how often it is sealed. Our guide to the lifespan of a South Jersey fence compares wood with vinyl, aluminum and chain link.
Cedar is worth it when appearance matters and you want natural rot resistance with less warping. Treated pine is the better value when strength and budget come first, especially for long runs.
Let treated pine dry first, then seal or stain to keep the color and slow checking. Unsealed cedar and pine weather to gray, which some homeowners prefer.
