Western red cedar
Cedar pickets on treated or steel posts — the better choice where the fence is seen and stained.
Treated pine
Pressure-treated pine where the run is long, the budget is tight, or it is a utility fence behind a shop.
Any height, any style
Four-foot dog-ear to eight-foot board-on-board, flat top or cap-and-trim.
Steel posts under wood
Galvanized steel posts behind the pickets where you want wood looks with posts that do not rot.

Why people call about this.
You are not sure which wood
We lay out cedar and pine on the same quote so the difference is in dollars, not sales talk.
The posts rotted before the boards
Wood posts in wet clay go first. Steel posts or proper concrete fix the cause, not just the symptom.
The run is long and the budget is not
Treated pine on a back or side line keeps cedar for where people actually look.
MIDLOTHIAN, TX
Wood Fence (Cedar & Pine) in Midlothian: what’s different here.
Midlothian is a fast-growing city in northwest Ellis County, about 25 miles southwest of Dallas where US-67 meets US-287, up from 35,125 people at the 2020 census to an estimated 41,000 in 2023. It is the center of the North Texas cement industry, with three cement plants and a steel mill, and new master-planned subdivisions have spread across the prairie around the older downtown, with Joe Pool Lake to the northwest. The City of Midlothian requires a fence permit with a site plan showing property lines, easements, right-of-way and existing buildings (Building Inspections, 215 N. 8th Street, 972-775-7161), master-planned subdivisions typically add HOA guidelines, and Texas811 locates come before any digging.
Fence in Midlothian
A Midlothian fence starts with a city permit and site plan that shows easements, then HOA rules in subdivisions like Lawson Farms, and the post holes themselves can run into Austin Chalk limestone a couple of feet down, so the auger setup and post depth are decided before the run is priced.
The ground
The Austin Chalk escarpment runs north to south through Midlothian, so depending on the side of town a post hole can hit shallow limestone within a couple of feet or go down through heavy clay, and rock often has to be augered or broken to reach full depth.
Homes and lots
Mostly newer single-family subdivisions such as Lawson Farms, Villages of Walnut Grove, Massey Meadows and Hawkins Meadow, a smaller stock of older homes near downtown, and larger lots and acreage on the edges of town.
