Wood Privacy Fence that suits Metamora properties.
Wood privacy is the most-requested fence in Metamora, and for good reason: it's the fastest way to turn an open backyard into a usable outdoor room. Larger residential lots, small acreages, and homeowners who want a fence that looks intentional from the road. A 6-ft solid-board cedar or treated-pine fence blocks sight lines from the neighbors, cuts wind across the patio, and can be stained to match a house instead of fighting it. Rolling Woodford County ground — plenty of runs that need stepped panels or a racked layout.
How we build it here
We build Metamora wood fence on pressure-treated 4x4 or 6x6 posts set 42 inches deep in concrete — below the Central Illinois frost line so the line stays true through freeze-thaw. Silty clay loam with occasional gravel seams; corners get extra bracing on the steeper lots. Rails are double or triple depending on height, pickets are dog-eared, flat-top, or shadowbox, and every gate gets a diagonal brace or a steel frame so it never sags.
Most residential wood privacy jobs are installed in one to two days once materials are staged.

What Metamora customers say.
“From the first estimate through the final walkthrough, communication was excellent. Questions were answered quickly, pricing was explained clearly, and there were no surprises. It was refreshing to work with a local company that was responsive and easy to reach.”
“A section of our fence was damaged during these storms, and Tazewell County Fence Co. was able to repair it without trying to sell us an entirely new fence. The repaired section blends in well with the rest of the fence, and the price was fair.”
“We wanted more privacy around our patio and received several options that worked with our property. The estimate was detailed and easy to understand. Our new vinyl fence completely changed the backyard and feels very sturdy.”
Wood Privacy Fence questions from Metamora homeowners.
- How much does a wood privacy fence cost in Metamora, IL?
- Quality workmanship and fast scheduling in Metamora. Book a free on-site measurement for an exact written quote covering materials, layout, gates, terrain, and removal needs.
- Do I need a permit for a wood fence in Metamora?
- Metamora village permits are quick, but rear setbacks and drainage easements come up often.
- How long will a wood fence last in Metamora?
- Treated pine set to frost depth commonly runs 15–20 years here, and cedar 20–25 with periodic staining. The failure point is almost always the post, not the pickets — which is why we set every post at 42 inches instead of the 24–30 inches a lot of crews get away with.
- Can you build wood fence on a sloped Metamora yard?
- Yes. Rolling Woodford County ground — plenty of runs that need stepped panels or a racked layout. We'll walk the line with you and decide between stepped panels (level sections with a stair-step top) and racked panels (the fence follows the grade). Racking looks cleaner on gentle slopes; stepping is better on sharp grade changes.
