What do San Marcos fences need?

North County Inland fence work has to handle dry heat and long sun exposure. San Marcos, Escondido, and Vista regularly hit 95°F to 105°F in summer, and unsealed pine pickets cup and crack within a single season. We build with cedar, redwood, or premium vinyl — the three materials that actually last inland — and recommend a penetrating oil stain within 60 days of install.
