Cedar Fences in Edmonton
Cedar is a versatile wood used in construction, furniture, and firewood. Unsurprisingly, it is one of the most popular fence materials. With its beautiful grain and tone, it brings a rustic yet natural look to a home that a lot of homeowners love.
The reason that cedar is a popular fence material is its durability. It is considered to be one of the most durable types of wood alongside pine, cypress, fir, and spruce. It can withstand varying weather conditions and climates and endures wear and tear through the years. With cedar, you do not have to worry about rain, wind and sun damage as long as you install and maintain it properly. It also resists impact, so replacements may be avoided if minor accidents happen.
Aside from durability, cedar also has natural oils that are very effective in keeping insects away from your home. In fact, cedar essential oil is used in insect repellents and other similar products. The same natural oils also make it highly resistant to rotting, which means that you will not need to use harsh chemicals to treat the wood before installation. Unlike pressure-treated fences, cedar fences are more friendly to the environment and are therefore easier to dispose of just in case you want to replace your fence material later on.
Because it is highly durable, cedar also requires little maintenance through the years. It can last up to 15 to 20 years without paint or stain, and it ages naturally to a soft gray color that looks beautiful around a garden or yard.
Cedar is versatile, durable and environmentally friendly, but is does cost more more than pressure-treated fences. You may have to spend about $5 to $20 more per linear foot if you choose to install a cedar fence.
At the end of the day, with low maintenance required, cedar is durable, beautiful, and environmental – a great fence material! Bonus: Cedar has a lot of natural air pockets that can help control temperature in your yard. This means that you can enjoy cooler summers and warmer winters if you install this type of fencing around your home.

Here’s What Our Clients Are Saying
S&P did a great job on our deck and fence! We had S&P build a deck and fence for our new home. We needed the fence and gates built quickly as we have a little dog. The team was amazing and the fence was complete in a day and a half! We were pleased with the whole team, everyone was professional, respectful and hardworking. They kept us up to date on timing of work and were happy to do exactly what we asked for (we asked for skirting with a little storage hatch on our deck, they were happy to do that for us). The cost was very reasonable for the exceptionally high quality of work, we would use S&P again and have already recommended them to friends and family.read more

We just had our old and very long driveway replaced with stamped concrete and aggregate border. S&P's quote for the job was competitive with others but where they stood out was their communication and how quickly they got the quote to us. I'm very glad we chose them because they were so easy to talk to about the job and our driveway looks great. Steve and his crew did an excellent job and we're very happy with the end result. So happy with them that we've asked for a quote for new siding.read more

S & P worked on my exterior fence just a few months ago and we are so pleased with the results. The consultation was so helpful and concise, Sterling gave us great advice and clear explanations as to what was required to complete the job. The quote was detailed, clearly understandable and we thought very worth the reasonable price. This company is timely, professional, reliable, and helpful - I would reccommend them to everyone. Tear down of our old fence and new posts being poured only took 1 day and then fence was done and completed a day later. The guys who did the fence were friendly, hardworking, quiet, and very respectful. You can feel safe having these guys working on your property. If you want your project done right and on time you can trust S & P Construction.read more

I found S&P on a google search when I was soliciting quotes for our backyard fencing job. I'm glad I did. They came in well under the other two quotes I received so I choose S&P. Still glad I did. They started the fence when they said they would. They cleaned up after themselves everyday. They did all the little extras we asked for. They came back the day after they thought they were done to fix a couple little issues. Their crew was professional, friendly and approachable. The quality and workmanship was very good and they did not nickel and dime us to death with extras even though they warned us in advance that here may be extra charges for problem digging and access etc. We will and already have recommended S&P Construction to our family and friends. Great job guys, thank you!A & Oread more

Day 1: Our old, tattered fence was removed and the new posts went in. Day 2: New, beautiful fence completed. Not a small yard, either.S&P's prices are fair, their estimates are itemized and don't deviate wildly from the total (we added a few fancy fence things, so our total went up, which we had expected), their workmanship is quick and nearly flawless, and they are excellent communicators. They deserve their (ahem) sterling reputation.read more

From start to finish, the process was easy and stress free. The consult was quick but thorough, and Sterling offered suggestions while also understanding our needs. The team that came to build the fence was proffessional and friendly, and they worked very quickly but not at the expense of quality. The fence and gates look fantastic, the price was fair, and we couldnt be happier.read more

We have a new home in Spruce Grove and called multiple contractors for quotes and it was like pulling teeth to get anyone at all to come to our house. We googled searched contractors for a fence and concrete work and S&P showed up first for both searches. We called them and they came over the next day and were very professional and gave us a quote that very same day. We feel the prices are very competitive and the workers were really great. They dropped the supplies off and built our fence in a day and had the area cleaned up by 5pm. Talked with Sterling for the most part and he was a great guy and a big help. His concrete contractors were some nice hard working guys men who really cared about what they were doing. We really felt good about hiring S&P for our work and would hire them again in a second. Check out their FB page for great picks of their work. Stirling even gave us a great landscaper and would called them for us.read more

Couldn't be happier with the work that was done. They were extremely fast and professional, and they kept the worksite tidy. I've already had neighbors inquire about using the company's services. Definitely recommend.read more

My Wife and I searched all summer for a contractor to build our build and deck. We went to the home and garden show to get some ideas and during our search we were very impressed by the display of S&P. There quote was about $10,000 less then classic landscaping and in all honesty you get what you pay for. What we got from S&P was the most amazing wrap around deck and it’s the talk on our street. People were coming to our house each day to ask us who is building our deck. Rob who is one of there workers did a amazing job all by himself and was completed less then 2 weeks. I would highly recommend this company to anyone and will be using them again to finish our landscaping.read more
