BUILT STRONG. BUILT RIGHT. BUILT TO LAST.
A Board-on-Board fence is one of the best choices for homeowners who want maximum privacy, strength, and curb appeal. Unlike a standard side-by-side fence, alternating pickets overlap to eliminate gaps, so you maintain privacy even as the wood naturally expands and contracts with North Texas weather. At Mike Downs Fencing, every board-on-board fence is custom built on-site using genuine Western Red Cedar, premium materials, and proven installation methods for lasting durability. Whether you're looking to increase privacy, reduce visibility into your yard, or add value to your home, a custom board-on-board fence delivers beauty, security, and long-lasting performance for years to come.
