Privacy Fences Built for Function and a Clean Finished Look
Privacy fences are designed to block views, define the yard, and create a more enclosed and finished outdoor space. Arthur James Construction builds privacy fences in Collingwood for homeowners who want clean execution, proper post installation, and a finished result that feels solid, straight, and well built.
Built with closely spaced boards, privacy fences help create separation from neighbouring properties while improving comfort, privacy, and the overall feel of the backyard. Whether the goal is to screen a patio, enclose a yard, or replace an older fence, we focus on solid construction from start to finish.
Where Privacy Fences Work Best
Privacy fences are a strong option for backyards, side yards, patios, decks, pool areas, and property lines where screening and separation matter. They help create a more usable outdoor space while giving the property a cleaner and more finished boundary.
What Makes a Privacy Fence Look Right and Last
A good privacy fence needs more than closely spaced boards. The post layout needs to be straight, the height needs to feel consistent, the spacing needs to be clean, and the finished fence needs to feel solid from end to end. We focus on layout, post installation, board alignment, and finish quality so the fence looks right and performs properly over time.

Privacy Fence Styles We Build in Collingwood
Board on Board Privacy Fence
Choose between 2x4 or 2x6 rails with overlapping boards for added privacy, reduced gaps, and a stronger finished look.

1x6 fence boards with a 2x2 frame and a flush 2x6 top cap for a clean, modern privacy fence.
Horizontal Slat Fence
A modern fence design built with 2x2 boards mounted to the post faces to create a clean, continuous look across the entire fence line.
We build a range of privacy fence styles in Collingwood based on the level of screening, finished look, and layout you want for the property. Whether the goal is maximum backyard privacy, a more modern design, or a clean and cost effective fence replacement, we focus on straight layout, proper post installation, and a finished result built to last.
Choosing the Right Privacy Fence Style
The best privacy fence style depends on the look you want, the amount of screening you need, and how the fence will fit with the home and yard.
Board on Board Privacy Fence
A strong choice for homeowners who want a more traditional privacy fence with full coverage and a solid finished look. This style works well for backyards, property lines, and spaces where privacy is the main priority.
Horizontal Privacy Fence
A clean, modern option that gives the fence a more updated architectural look. Horizontal privacy fences work especially well on newer homes or properties where the goal is a more refined backyard design.
Horizontal Slat Fence
A more design forward option that creates a sleek and continuous look across the fence line. This style is ideal for homeowners who want privacy with a more custom appearance.
