Incorporating stone and wood in a fencing design can produce an attractive and innovative landscape feature. Redwood is the ideal lumber when blending the two materials because it resists moisture that collects in the stone and the mortar joints during rains, as well as when the property is watered.The redwood fencing pieces can be standard 6 wide x _ thick, since these will attach to the 2 thick redwood railings. and also can be easily cut to conform to the stonework if desired. The redwood fencing posts could be standard 4 x 4 posts, or larger if the design suggests that type of look.There are numerous possibilities for a design scheme that incorporates wood with stone. One design might feature redwood fencing that spans between stone pilasters. The fencing may be full height or rest on a course of stone that spans across the bottom of each fencing section. In this design there would be anchor bolts that are set in the stone pilasters, and protrude enough to fasten the redwood fence rails. The fencing would then be attached to the rails using galvanized deck screws.Another design might have redwood posts with stonework at the base and extending across the fencing sections as well. With this design the redwood fencing atop the stone may be as little as 3 or 4 feet in height, with the stonework making up the balance of a 6’ high fence. For a garden fence, the overall height of this design could be adjusted to a lower dimension if desired.Where the posts are set in concrete, the stonework would attach to the posts using metal lath with mortar. The benefit of setting the posts first would certainly be in the integrity of the fencing construction. However, some fencing contractors might elect to install post anchors as an alternate system. The idea is to create a design that complements the landscaping and adds unique texture to the overall exterior design of the property.

Cedar fencing is generally 2-3 times the price, but gives your yard a great look and it lasts a long time. Make sure your fencing posts are firmly set in concrete for a solid foundation. Run a string from one end of the fence to the other to ensure a straight line. Align your fence boards from the top as you can always hide the uneven bottom with soil or vegetation.
To change the wood in your design you can go to the store where you got the design. Or you can get a new design entirely that will complement the new wood better.
