Which does your fence actually need?
Clear Wood Sealer
A clear penetrating sealer (a "wood fence sealer") repels water but adds no color and very little UV protection. In Lubbock's high-UV climate it lasts only 12–18 months before the wood starts graying.
Best for: brand-new cedar where you want the original color to age naturally — and you're OK re-coating yearly.
Pigmented Stain (what we recommend)
A pigmented oil-based stain seals AND blocks UV. It's the only finish that holds up 3–5 years on a West Texas privacy fence. You still see the grain — the color just lasts.
Best for: 95% of Lubbock fences. Especially cedar privacy fences, pine, and any fence in full sun.

Every wood. Every style.
Cedar
The Lubbock favorite. Naturally rot-resistant and takes stain beautifully. We highlight the grain with semi-transparent honey or walnut tones.
Pine
Common in newer South Plains builds. Needs solid prep and a quality oil-based stain to last in the high-UV climate.
Privacy (6 ft)
Standard backyard fence. We stain both sides for full protection and a uniform look from inside and out.
Picket
Front-yard charm. Crisp masking on every spindle, even saturation, no drips on the concrete.
Ranch Rail
Open-rail and split-rail fences look stunning with a quick semi-transparent coat that lets the wood breathe.
