Natural beauty, real character, and solid privacy — wood fencing custom-built and installed by Bobby's Fence & Gate.

Whether you want a tall privacy fence around your backyard, a classic picket fence out front, or a rustic split-rail along your property line — we cut, build, and install wood fences the right way, using quality lumber that holds up in Tampa Bay's climate.

Stockade wood fence example

Stockade

Pointed-top boards installed tightly side by side with no gaps — a classic full-privacy style that's one of the most popular choices for Florida backyards. Available in 6' and 8' heights.

Shadow Box wood fence example

Shadow Box

Boards alternate on both sides of the rail, overlapping slightly. Provides privacy while allowing airflow, and looks finished from both sides of the fence.

Cap & Trim wood fence example

Cap & Trim

A privacy fence with a decorative cap rail and trim boards along the top and bottom — adds a polished, finished look that stands out from a standard privacy fence.

Board-On-Board wood fence example

Board-On-Board

Boards overlap each other on the same side of the rail for a thick, solid privacy panel. No gaps, great wind resistance, and a clean uniform appearance.

Picket Fence wood fence example

Picket Fence

Classic pointed-top boards spaced evenly on a horizontal rail. Ideal for front yards, garden borders, and decorative property lines.

Split Rail Fence wood fence example

Split Rail Fence

Two or three horizontal rails between posts — an open, rustic style used for property boundaries, pastures, and decorative landscaping.

Material Options

Wood Species We Work With

The right wood makes a big difference in how long your fence lasts and how it looks over time. We'll help you choose the best option for your budget and goals.

Pressure-Treated Pine

The most common and cost-effective choice for Florida fencing. Chemically treated to resist rot, insects, and moisture — holds up well in humid climates.

Western Red Cedar

Naturally resistant to rot and insects without chemical treatment. Cedar has a beautiful grain, weathers gracefully, and is a premium choice for homeowners who want longevity and aesthetics.

Cypress

A Florida-native wood with natural oils that resist decay and insects. Cypress is dense, durable, and an excellent local choice for outdoor fencing.

Redwood

A premium, naturally rot-resistant wood with a rich color and tight grain. Redwood is lightweight, stable, and one of the longest-lasting fence materials available.

Caring for Your Wood Fence

Wood fencing requires more upkeep than vinyl or chain-link, but the results are worth it. In Florida's humid climate, we recommend inspecting your fence annually for signs of rot or insect damage, cleaning it with a mild detergent and water, and applying a quality stain or sealant every 2–3 years. Keeping vegetation trimmed away from the fence line also helps prevent moisture buildup and extends the life of the wood.
