A wood privacy fence is one of the most popular choices for Somerset homeowners — it gives you real backyard privacy, defines your property line, and adds classic curb appeal. Somerset Fence Company installs custom wood privacy fences built to handle Kentucky’s humidity, seasonal freeze-thaw cycles, and everything Pulaski County weather brings.
What’s Included
- Choice of cedar or pressure-treated pine
- Standard heights of 6′ and 8′ for full privacy
- Post spacing and depth set for local soil conditions
- Gate options to match your fence style
Local Considerations
Because much of Somerset and the surrounding area sits on karst limestone, ground conditions can vary a lot from lot to lot — some properties have solid soil, others have shallow bedrock or natural drainage features nearby. We check the site before digging and adjust post depth and footing accordingly, always setting below the frost line for long-term stability.
Cost
Wood privacy fence installation in the Somerset area typically runs around $18–$25 per linear foot for a standard 6′ privacy fence, depending on wood type, height, and site conditions. Contact us for an exact, no-obligation quote for your property.
