## FAQs



### How do wood fences compare to vinyl in Southwest Florida?

In Southwest Florida, wood fencing wins on natural appearance and lower upfront cost. Vinyl wins when the customer wants lower maintenance over time. True Fence Florida installs both materials and gives the recommendation based on the property, exposure, HOA rules, and budget.

### What wood species does True Fence Florida install in SWFL?

True Fence Florida typically installs pressure-treated pine for budget-conscious installs and cedar for customers who want better rot resistance and a richer visual. Pressure-treated pine is the practical default for SWFL because cost is low and material availability is strong, but it still needs periodic sealing. We walk through the trade-offs during the estimate.

### How long does a wood fence last in Southwest Florida?

Wood fence life in Southwest Florida depends on shade exposure, irrigation, maintenance, soil, and how much direct weather the fence sees. True Fence Florida installs pressure-treated pine and walks through the maintenance trade-offs during the estimate.

### Does wood fencing work for hurricane-exposed properties?

Wood can be the right choice for the right property, but storm performance depends on post setting, panel style, hardware, and exposure. Where wood is the customer's preference, we spec the install around the site instead of treating the material choice as the only storm factor.

### Does True Fence Florida install wood fencing in my city?

Yes. True Fence Florida installs wood fencing across the Southwest Florida corridor from Bradenton down to Naples. Wood installs are most common in North Port, Sarasota, Venice, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, Fort Myers, and Naples where natural-appearance fencing suits the architecture and shaded yards extend lifespan.
